roots of racism

What's wrong is not that we are unable to treat people the same irrespective of color, sex, race, etc. What's wrong is that society and our way of life is dependent on those things. Why do we hold beauty contests? Why does the more intelligent get ahead in life? Why do we hold fitness and strength contests? Where the tall, more well-built ones are the ones who succeed?

It's all right to hold such contests. But not to reward the winner. If we do, then we are acting out of bias. Promoting such a culture. And giving in to nature's principle of "survival of the fittest."

Why should it matter if the other person has a displeasing appearance? Why should it matter if he/she looks looks disgusting to you? According to me, there's nothing wrong in either you feeling disgusted or him/her looking disgusting. What's wrong is that you have the power to hurt him/her based on how you feel. And does the rest of society as well. If most people find that person disgusting in some way or other, he/she will have to suffer or change his/her personality to a more pleasing type, thereby having to give up his/her individuality.
