"I don't judge anyone"

"I treat everybody the same"

"You shouldn't judge other people"

Do you identify with these statements? Have you uttered them yourself? Do you believe they are true?

Are we capable of not judging others? Or do we all do it? Is admitting to it a terrible thing? Or should we strive never to judge?

Are you aware of your own biases and blind spots? If so, how does this affect your judgement of others?

Everyone judges on some level. The human brain is always weighing up friend, foes or threats.

Whether you are aware of your biases and whether you act on them is a whole other question.

Oooo, great question. I think we all to an extent judge people and situations before we stop to examine our own faults. Personally with age I have judged less and have more of a live and let live attitude. We all at some time in our lives have done things we are not proud of and made bad decisions so we should also allow others to have them bad decisions and learn from them without going into judging mode.

Some things are worthy of judgement. An extra colleague of mine has been convicted of battering his wife - I judged him.

A guy that messaged me earlier had an entirely unprompted rant about stuck up cunts on here who need to remember that they’re just fat cows that no-one would look at in the pub - I judged him

One of my neighbours is atrocious at parking and basically abandons her car somewhere in the same postcode as the kerb - I judge because she giggles and finds it funny and calls herself “such a girl”

I try not to unfairly judge, or pre-judge people.

I judge people and I don't treat everyone the same. I also judge a book by its cover sometimes.

I try to think before I make a judgement though unless I'm being followed down a dark alley by an axe wielding murderer.

I judge all the time. Sometimes it may escape before I check myself.

I know my biases and try to listen to what they tell me about myself and the person or situation in front of me.

I have become less tolerant of some people and their views over the last two years. That doesn't stop me treating them with common courtesy, unless quite provoked, especially those 'I'm just joking, can't you take a joke?' provocations. I may stop interacting with them, for my own wellbeing.

There’s a difference between judgement and discernment.

You can judge situations, or you can be judgemental, again there’s a difference, and also, even if you do have the odd judgemental thought, which we all do, it’s what you do with it that counts.

We all judge at some point in our day. The person who just pushed in the queue, the couple having a slanging match outside your house at 2 o clock at night to that person walking too closely to you late at night.

We judge constantly, sometimes it's for self preservation others are ingrained uncon....

Another minefield

It’s hard to truly know isn’t it as some things we may be unaware we do..

I do take people at face value until proven otherwise and have friends with vastly different stances on things that I deem important to me. The important part to me is transparency.

It’s more perceptions of intent that I find I’m more judgemental of. If things are done with malice then I’m way more judgmental of other things they may do which may be overlooked otherwise. Maybe that’s overthinking..

I think the key is to still keep and open mind as those initial judgements can be wrong, it's always good for someone to be the opposite of what you expected. They're usually pretty accurate though.

Yep, I think this too. I'll judge people, sometimes over tiny things... but unless it's something which is terrible then I'm happy to keep an open mind and I have no issue admitting I'm not being very understanding or particularly nice by passing judgement, especially on a stranger. You never know what someone is going through, and why they might do what they do etc.

Not when things are black and white and they have done something seriously bad but in everyday situations like instances of Faux pas for instance maybe we shouldn't judge, I like the thought of allowing someone to have a second chance if it's been a genuine slip up.

Pretty much.

I think everyone judges people. Sometimes positively and sometimes negatively. It’s pretty much how we decide who we don’t and don’t like.

Yes, but... This is like shopping for shoes. There are lots of shoes out there but you want the pair you want. The judging process is the similar. The difference is that you don't upset the shoes you leave in the shop.

It is possible to reject people without being offensive, and without sharing your detailed judgement.

I just don't think it's a pleasant thing to do. It's a little unkind. When I saw that toddler drinking at 9am I just thought that the dad was gross. But maybe his wife died or something and the kid hasn't stopped crying all night and just wanted a little drink, or maybe he was poor and that was a treat. I dunno.

I just don't like to do it and feel guilty sometimes because I don't know the whole situation.

But I don't have an issue with judging people who do really shitty things like smacking kids, hurting animals etc.

Why is it wrong or narrow minded? We can't get to properly know everyone we encounter, either on here or in life. Surely it's reasonable that we all make initial judgements so that we can then decide who we would like to properly know and those we don't?

I believe we make quick judgements all the time and this is a natural human survival instinct.

But I'd draw a distinction between closed judgements where our opinion is quickly fixed and open ones which we might change. To use Lemons cola example, she made a quick but rational judgement on a situation but kept an open mind that other interpretations were valid and possible. That seems a reasonable and fair use of judgement.

It's human nature to judge, we all do it at varying levels of the judgemental spectrum.

It is not being judgemental that is an issue it is how we communicate that. Do we really need to communicate that? Is it necessary? Is it kind?

As for treating people the same, you can't. Not everyone is the same...we can treat people as individual not equal because we aren't equal.

I would say that we are all prone to judgement, it's just a mental habit. However, I believe we should strive to not judge people, for the sake of our own happiness.

A part of judging people is the belief that others are judging us. As in, we judge them as having judged us and this can cause us suffering.

Becoming aware of our own tendency to judge, we can let it go and it can bring a lot of peace or mind

I most certainly judge.

I judge others as I hope to be judged by them, hopefully with compassion, kindness, forbearance and a tolerance that allows me the leeway to be the individual that I am as long as it does no harm to others.

Society cannot function without judgment but it is how we judge that needs careful consideration. I am unaware of my weaknesses in how I judge perhaps due to ignorance of some issues and I am judged for that. That is when I hope the the patience of others to highlight the issues to me in a civil manner.

I judge the shit out of people. I do it all the time. We all do, and anyone who denies it is... lying? Not understanding the concept? Who knows.

Every time you interact with someone, you judge whether they're a threat, whether they're attractive, whether they're someone you want to interact with.

Survival mechanism. You do it automatically. Hell, we even judge people on the way they *move*, before we've ever spoken to them.

I judge people who do things I consider a danger to others, I think most people do or at least should to an extent. I would judge people who never judge people ever.

It's human nature that we all analyse people on a daily basis.. whether it be what they look like, the way they treat you and who they are as a person. This is judging someone's character based on what's acceptable in our own mind.

When judgement becomes wrong is when someone treats a person differently, attacks their appearance or questions their life choices. Somethings are best left not said, especially if you hurt someone in the process.

Personally, I take everyone at face value and treat them the same. We all need to stop and think of everything that can mould a person into who they are. We never truely know what's going on in a person's life so we should try not to have judgement on others.

I used to judge myself more than anyone else and was my harshest critic.

Then I reached a point where I realised that was holding me back in life so I stopped listening to my self judgement.

When it comes to other people I judge based on their words and actions.

Therefore if they say one thing and do the opposite I try to avoid them as they aren't trustworthy.

""I don't judge anyone"

"I treat everybody the same"

"You shouldn't judge other people"

Do you identify with these statements? Have you uttered them yourself? Do you believe they are true?

Are we capable of not judging others? Or do we all do it? Is admitting to it a terrible thing? Or should we strive never to judge?

Are you aware of your own biases and blind spots? If so, how does this affect your judgement of others?

I’m kinda guilty of it, like I’ve always somehow had an opinion about something or someone and am a bit judgy. I am careful who I voice it to, but I definitely have my inner voice say it even if I don’t blurt it out.

I find this to be a very double edged sword as I’m the worst critics for myself and I judge myself a lot (and its not very pretty what I say to myself) x

Also my judgement of myself and others isn’t much behaviour wise (unless it’s really bad then yeah I have an opinion otherwise im open minded to let people do whatever… like I hate when people judge the actions of others)

Its more the exterior and superficial. I always thought I am very visual and have a good eye of what looks good (generally speaking don’t jump at my throat - and having worked in the fashion industry for 7 years kinda open your eyes)

So it can go either way in a good judgement or bad judgement

I am guilty of the up and down look ….

We all judge each other and everything.

It's how us humans work.

Whether we then express that is what defines the type of person / people that we are.

For this I assume that making a judgement is not necessarily voicing it - since sometimes it just isn’t our place to say.

I judge people mainly on how they treat other people and how they form the opinions and beliefs that live by (as being distinct from just “their opinions and beliefs”) - which is wide ranging and varied.

For example I might judge a person on:

- how and why they choose to wear make up.

- their decision to vac or non vax.

- their choice of clothing.

- How they speak to their children.

Etc

I don't think we should treat everyone the same. We aren't the same.

Some people have to overcome significant hurdles to achieve what another person could do without effort. Should both achievements be considered and treated the same? I don't think so. We're all different.

Differences can be celebrated, rather than ignored

“Don’t judge me” is a common refrain these days, an attempt to shift blame from their own actions to the imaginary crime of “judging”.

People should just own their own actions and not care what others think.

I was giving an example of the range of ways I (and we) judge.

For the purposes of conversation.

You might not consider it important - it’s important to me because I have a daughter and I don’t want her growing up believing she needs to wear make up to hide any imperfections because she might worry that she’ll be told she’s ugly and should “cover it up”. So if people condone wearing makeup for that reason and believe it’s ok to make others believe that view, then yeah, I will judge them.

Well the note said Mrs. Johnson you're wearing your dresses way to high !

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoMPrjmjeUY

I wanna tell you all a story 'bout

A Harper Valley widowed wife

Who had a teenage daughter

Who attended Harper Valley Junior High

Well, her daughter came home one afternoon

And didn't even stop to play

And she said, "mom, I got a note here from the Harper Valley PTA"

Well, the note said, "Mrs. Johnson

You're wearin' your dresses way too high

It's reported you've been drinking

And a-running 'round with men and goin' wild

And we don't believe you oughta be a-bringin' up

Your little girl this way"

And it was signed by the Secretary

Harper Valley PTA

Well, it happened that the PTA was gonna meet

That very afternoon

And they were sure surprised

When Mrs. Johnson wore her miniskirt into the room

And as she walked up to the blackboard

I can still recall the words she had to say

She said, "I'd like to address this meeting of the Harper Valley PTA

Well, there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there

And seven times he's asked me for a date

And Mrs. Taylor sure seems to use a lotta ice

Whenever he's away

And Mr. Baker can you tell us why

Your secretary had to leave this town?

And shouldn't widow Jones be told to keep

Her window shades all pulled completely down

Well, Mr. Harper couldn't be here

'Cause he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again

And if you smell Shirley Thompson's breath

You'll find she's had a little nip of gin

And then you have the nerve to tell me

You think that as the mother I'm not fit

Well, this is just a little Peyton Place

And you're all Harper Valley hypocrites"

No, I wouldn't put you on because it really did

It happened just this way

The day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA

I most certainly judge.

Is it other people's responsibility to point out your weaknesses? Or is that for you to investigate?
