Previous Results:
(1) Are you still a virgin? -- Yes (44%) No (54%) -- 84 votes
(2) What is your weight category?
Underweight (10.5%) Normal (56.1%) Overweight (28.1%) Obese (5.3%) 57 voters

It was quite difficult to properly phrase the question this time around so forgive me if it's hard to understand. I decided I had to go with large categories instead of smaller sub-categories ("race" instead of "white people" and "black people" etc). I thinki I may take the winner(s) and do a further investigation.

Now, remember to be honest. You PC guilt-trippers are simply just as guilty as anyone else of bigotry. Think about classes of people contained within these larger groups. Do you have any negative presuppositions about any of them? Would you be more nervous about a black guy walking up to your car than a white guy? Do you think most rich people are crooked? Are Mormons brainwashed? Did a Republican once steal your fries? Were they freedom fries? I could go on but you get the picture.

Religion, ish. I'm bigoted against people who evangelise, whatever their religion.

Also, I'm a bit too hard on Liberals (moreso than Republicans, actually. I mean Liberal party of Australia, fwiw) but only if they supported Howard Cheesy

My only other bigotim is location. I'm more than a little bigoted against the suburbs, and especially gainst people who choose to live in the suburbs when there was another equally feasible option.

I don't know which to check...I'm an equal opportunity hater.

But if I had to single out one group for my hatred...stupid people.

Does Scientology count as a religion?

I'm look down on all of them, of course. It's part of being an elitist.

Didn't vote on any of those. Religion is probably the closest one, but it more applies to people who don't keep their religion to themselves enough. You can preach at me, but if I ask you to stop then you should stop and start minding your own business.

I wouldn't count the Church of Scientology as a religious organization, but the level to which many Scientologists take their beliefs might make the system of beliefs a religion.

The only thing that would be close to bigotry would be my distaste for the French. I post this as I listen to some members speaking swine during Questions time in the Canadian House of Commons.

I can't say with any honesty that I am without bigotry towards any sub-group within these classifications.

Of course, so is everyone else on this forum, as much as they try to hide it or not acknowledge it.

I would say my greatest bigotry is against stupid people.  Tongue

Actually, I don't mind sexuality per se... I'm in favour of civil unions for lesbians and gays but not marriage.

You should have included something about what region of the country people are from, to see how many Northerners would admit they're prejudiced against Southerners.
