QUIZ WHIZ
How prejudiced are you? by AGYA POUDYAL
Do you implicitly prefer good looking people? How often do you say beauty is all in the brain and in the heart but think otherwise? Have you harbored unrecognised misconception about the people with thick accents? Do you consider people incompetent and dumb just because they come from a public school? Of course not, instead we think of ourselves as good and loving humans. But the space between what you'd like to believe and what exactly you are is the line which harbors the P word- prejudice. Take our quiz and find out if you are prejudiced? 2. Your view of Brokeback Mountain was: 3. If you were a doctor and had to save only one of the following three patients with the same disease which one of them would you save? 4. You see a fat lady walking down the road you: 5. Which one of these people according to you were more of a Saint? 6. Are you quick to judge people on the basis of their surname? 7. What is the best strategy in war? More As: You don't speak your mind and you also don't know what's actually in your mind. You are goody-goody from the outside but from the inside you do harbour some preconceptions about people. You might have heard prejudiced comments while you grew up and that is why it's hard for you to resist it right now. But you certainly aren't prejudiced to the level like Hitler was and there's no way that you'd believe in ethnic cleansing. More Bs: You argue about your point on which race is best and have special hatred towards certain people. You also wish you could wipe away the ones you hate. You don't miss pointing fingers at people you hate, give them nasty names and make fun of them. You need help with your prejudiced attitude. More Cs: You don't pre-judge people or go along with the crowd when people are being unfair to someone. You try to know people as individuals before you decide whether or not you like them. Even while treating people you take care and treat them the way you like to be treated yourself. You are more global and you love the world as much as you love your own country and its people. Hate hurts – and you live by it. | ||||||||||||||||||||
