People are always being perceived in many different points of views that relate in Race ,Gender,Sexual orientation,Background and Ethnicity. All this aspects are being judge by others that might not know that other person that is being judge. Many people may not be comfortable of being judge by others because its not right to talk crap about other people. people perceive me as being short, timid, aggresive and white. and that kind off scares me because sometimes people are wrong and plus they're judging you without knowing you. I think everybody has their own personal life styles. why bother others in asking if they are rich or poor. I just think is really stupid because when people see you wearing something nice or elegant the first thing that comes up to their minds is "she/he is rich" then they start asking question like: where do you live? do you drive?. In the other hand when you see another person wearing formal clothes then they dont really pay attention to you and the first thing they think about is "he/she has nothing to offer". I think is really sad how people perceive others on what they are wearing and of how they look. people should'nt been perceived of the way others think of you.
During my high school years many strangers perceived me as being untouchable, preppy and inferior to the rest of the students. All these characteristics made me look bad infront of other people that i was getting to know. why well because i was not that person they were thinking i was. when my friends started getting to know me better i felt so much better because they were finding out that i was'nt preppy, untouchable or inferior to others because at the same time we are all the same people but with different tendencies. when you get to know somebody new in your life you think differently of them then what you thought the first time you saw them.
Geting to know new people helps you realized how different you are from what you thought you were. Most of the times people that hate you always talk crap about you with others because they want you to look bad with other people that dont know you. And those people that do that to hurt you they are the ones hurting themselves in the inside because they are jelaous of who you are. people that hate somebody else because of their looks should think of the wrong statements that they are doing insted of perceiving you with another person that you are not.
Race, Background, Ethnicity and Gender are also a huge aspect in a every day life. For instance, when people see me around they always perceive me as being white because i am white skin. but they dont know that i am a Mexican-American. But when people ask me questions they can totally tell that i am Latin because of the way i speak. And also because of my accent. i really dont mind what others think of my accent because i know i am not the only person that does not speaks "Perfect English" so i dont really mind of what they think of me. Also when people hear me speaking spanish they just look at me like if i was a weird insect and it amkes me feel sad and unconnected to others. I am pretty sure i look mexican just because i'm a white skin Mexican it does'nt means that i am an American. Many people see Race and Background as something huge in their lives because it determines if a person is African-American, Mexican- American, American , etc. Ethnicity identifies you of who you are from the inside and outside and people should not perceive you as being what they think you are without knowing you.

1. I think her thesis is most people judge someone before they even met them, but after they really know each other, their opinion has changed.
ReplyDelete2. She talks about her experience at school when people judged her before they knew her or talked to her. However, since they started to have conversations, people’s opinions about her have changed.
3. Yes, the writer provides critical thinking into the essay.
4. The writer doesn’t have a counter-claim in this essay.
5. May be she can give a detail example about why she doesn’t like people judge her like that.
7. She might want to add more about her response about why people think that way.
May be you can pick a good example that people judge you like this, and why they think like that about you. And how do you feel about it.
thesis - people base their opinions of you on all the wrong reasons.
ReplyDeleteevidence - because of your skin color, manner of speaking, clothes, etc.
counter claims - non really, but none needed for this essay.
im sure not everyone makes such bad judgment calls. some people must have a pretty good idea of who you are. why do some of these people get it right, and some not. and the ones that are right, how do they see you. and how do you see yourself.
this is a hard topic to write on because you can never know for sure how someone perceives unless you ask them directly. you wrote it as if everyone sees you negatively, i doubt that is true. i dont, and i dont think anyone in the class does either.
personally ethnicity has very little to do with the way i perceive someone. its personality that affects that. maybe you could talk about how you perceive others, and then use those standards and do a little review of yourself. then you will know if you are putting out the message that you want to be.
