prejudice is so stupid!!!!

so I was sitting at the dinner table and somehow we got onto the subject of piercings, again.
Mel said that she thought Eva was one of the few people in her mind that could pull off a nose ring.
(Mel's not big on piercings to begin with)
and then about 5 minutes later Starshine said "And just for the record, Eva can't pull off a nose ring." I got so freaking upset that I just stopped eating, got up and put my dish in the sink and started doing the dishes. I was freaking pissed.
he is so ridiculously prejudiced against those with piercings/tattoos. Eva is seriously one of the nicest, sweetest people I have ever known, and I don't understand how somebody could just automatically not like somebody just because they have a nose ring, or a lip ring, or a tattoo or anything of the sort.
it is absolutely RIDICULOUS! it's stupid! it's pointless!
why can't people just accept each other for who they are and not what they look like.
get over yourselves people!!!!


(and the worst part, is that my mother agrees with abso-freaking-lutely everything he says)
