Preference/Prejudice

Hi, We all have our likes and dislikes. I often see profiles looking for a particular thing and then they qualify it with "not prejudice just my preference". Got me wondering what is the difference?

A prejudice is a dislike for no other reason than skin colour , nationality etc....

A preference is having a choice and choosing a specific for no other reason reason than being able to exercise that preferential choice .

As above, I'd assume that prejudice means to pre-judge, probably based on things like race and nationality, whereas preference is something you've personally learned over time that you enjoy, so basically:

Prejudice: Negative exclusion

Preference: Positive selection

"Suggest you buy a dictionary, OP! "

I will once I have learnt to read and use words not abbreviations.

So if I say I like fit guys it is a preference but if I say no fattys it's prejudice?

No, because presumably you don't find fat guys attractive because you're not attracted to them physically, there's no pre-judging involved because you can already tell you're not attracted just by looking at them.

If you were to say no fatties because they all have bad breath that would be prejudice!

I see but it's a thin grey line...I still think that often preferences are often based on prejudice.

Yes for a lot of people they undoubtably are. A sad fact of life but I think most of us are guilty of prejudice at some point, maybe without even realising what we are doing.
