Today, in class, we were discussing stereotypes. We were asked about common ones about nearby cities. A guy said, "Well, they say Lumberton has the prettiest girls." My teacher asked if any of us were from Lumberton, so I raised my hand. The guy quickly said, "Nevermind." FML

Today, our class was focusing on discrimination, and our teacher asked us if anyone had ever felt discriminated against. I put my hand up to share a story, and my teacher immediately said "It's because you're ginger, isn't it?" That's not what I was going to say. FML

Today, I went downtown with my friends. A group of guys came up to us and started hitting on everyone except me. Then one of them said, "Do you girls hang out with her to make yourselves look better?" FML

Today, I was downtown with my boyfriend around Noon when we walked past a few guys who shouted out to me "You're the most beautiful girl we've seen all day". My boyfriend's response was "It's still early." FML

Today, I said something in class and someone mimicked me. In a self-pitying mood, I exclaimed, "Everybody hates me!" The girl behind me then said, "Pretty much." FML

Today, in class the guy next to me was talking to a girl across the room using gestures to help get across his message. Apparently, pointing at me is the best way to say "ugly." FML

Today, I was walking by a bunch of pretty girls. I'm not the most attractive boy, so I walked by nervously. I heard one yell, "Hey cutie!" I turned to look, and they started laughing. She said, "Oh my god, sorry! I assumed you were cute from your butt!" Apparently, my ass is nicer than my face. FML

Depending on what age you are, I could understand his side. For instance, if the guy simply volunteered a suggestion, was taken aback by the teacher asking for a class response, and saw that only one person raised their hand, he might have simply wanted to end the subject and not get associated with any particular female in the school. Regardless, there's no reason to suddenly feel like you're not attractive because a random classmate makes a comment that could have been made for a complete different reason than the one you came up with.

Hold up here: Isn't he actually implying you're pretty? Let's take a look. You were talking about *stereotypes*, and Lumberton having pretty girls was an example. If you were ugly and raised your hand, he would say, "See what I mean?" (Or something like that.) But his saying "Never mind" (two words, mind you) meant that he couldn't say anything to prove it was a stereotype. Maybe I'm mistaken, but that's what stuck out to me.
