What I can say is that if you have never been discriminated against because of the way you were born then it would take a very strong, intelligent, and socially sensitive parental unit to raise you with an insight deep enough to understand and accept people no matter how they were born or the choices they have made in their lives.Well Z, I have been discriminated against to a point because of the lifestyle I have chosen. I wasn't born this way, I became this way after deciding to live the Life of a Biker. Not to the same extent other groups are discriminated against, but people see me with my friends and they cross the street to avoid coming too close to us. We get glared at when we are out in groups because we like to be loud and rowdy. We are feared by so many, when all we want is to be left alone to have our fun without people freaking out at the sight of leathers and colors and tattooes. Fortunately, people hating us doesn't have the same affect to us that, say, gay-bashing does. People won't fuck with us; they are afraid of us. For no reason whatsoever.
