Then again, I have been a little outspoken against Gemini's. There are several on here that have made me re-think the opinion and I'm grateful for that. So, in my experience, just seeing things from their viewpoint has helped turn that prejudice around.
That's all I'm getting at.
No you're dislike of Gemini's was correct.click to expand

Ending prejudice starts with YOU. And ME. And everyone else.
...
Sure, prejudice exists, and will always exist, whether it be prejudices against social class, astrological sign, hair color, race, income levels, profession, etc.
... We can't control what others think and do, but we CAN control how WE react to it.

The fate of our future is in the hands of our children.
The most important thing is teaching them right from wrong, and trying to get them to understand nothing is perfect. All we can do is try for a positive light, and the only way is passing that light to the hearts of the youth.
Teaching without force the importance of equality is the greatest gift an adult could pass on.

Let's be honest...
We are all prejudiced, will always be prejudiced, and will never stop being prejudiced.
As long as you give people a chance to prove you wrong, it is NOBODY'S business what your initial prejudices are.

Ok let's be honest for a minute. Your statement is simply wrong.
You chose to be prejudice,
and you chose to continue being prejudice.
With an attitude like that you prove your own point.
Just remember not everyone wakes up ready to spread hate and pain. Some wake ready to help, others ready to change.
Why is it wrong if you choose to be prejudice—
If people turned purple tomorrow, they would still hate eachother and divide themselves into different categories, like:
East vs West
North vs South
English accent vs French accent
Democrat vs Republican
Liberal vs Conservative
Atheist. Vs Christian
Judaism. Vs Islam
New York City vs Los Angeles
Neighborhood vs Neighborhood
Favorite genere of music vs alternative
Etc Etc Etc Etc Etc.
There are simply too many of us for all to get along.
Larger group of people= stronger need of competition=stronger need of breaking down into smaller tribes all competing for the same resources.

There are so many threads that discuss racism, however, they end up in arguments. If we would all stop responding sensitively and stop arguing back with people, then they don't have an audience.
Sure, prejudice exists, and will always exist, whether it be prejudices against social class, astrological sign, hair color, race, income levels, profession, etc.
However, we have the choice not to let it bother us and not to respond to it. When we respond, it just fuels the fire and often times reinforces said prejudice.
So, I take a vow not to respond. I promise to try to see the other person's point of view and understand where they are coming from. How about you?
We can't control what others think and do, but we CAN control how WE react to it.
And please, don't let this thread lead to a racist thread. I'm talking about prejudice of all kinds.
