Today, after finding out that my professor likes to talk trash about, and constantly belittle, Muslims in every American History class he teaches, I submitted an essay about Muslim contributions to humanity. He held me back after class and asked why I gave him such filth. I'm a Muslim. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I saw my coworker write about how awful Muslims were and how the religion is stupid, the hijab is oppressive, and how they're a poison on society. When I questioned them about it, they pretty much said that I didn't know anything and should stop talking. I'm Muslim and a hijabi. FML
Today, I gathered the courage to participate in a class discussion. My professor laughed at me. FML
Today, my English professor bragged to my entire class about how good my essay was. He kept on saying great things about it for the duration of class. To my surprise, he'd given me a C-. When I asked why, his only response was: "I'm a hard grader." FML
Today, my university professor asked us to submit anonymous course feedback. I wrote three paragraphs criticizing his lectures. Ten minutes later, I realized I'd left my full name at the bottom of the page. FML
Today, my professor snapped and told me that I know nothing, that everything I've ever learned is wrong, and that all of my former teachers should be shot. FML
Today, after turning in a paper that I worked really hard on, I got it back with a grade of 0. In the feedback section, my professor wrote: “In all my 37 years of teaching, this is by far the worst essay I have ever read.” FML
Today, I got a writing assignment back. After meeting with my professor specially after class and meticulously combing through every word of that paper, I got a low D. Turns out, he graded me down on every suggestion of his that I took. FML
Today, I confirmed that my professor hates me. Weeks ago, I failed a paper for the first time, so I went to my professor, apologized profusely, and discussed my revision plan. I got his approval on my conclusions and added all the details he suggested. I then submitted my paper. I got my grade this morning: C-. FML
Today, I went to get my midterm essay grade thinking I couldn't have made lower than a B. Got to class and my douchebag professor gave me an F. He wrote "Best essay I read, would've been an A if it was the right topic." I wrote on the Industrial Revolution, instead of the Scientific Revolution. FML
Today, I had my teacher look over my essay before turning it in. He said it was extremely well-written, so I handed it in. When I got it back, the feedback he left said it was one of the worst essays he'd ever read. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Report him to the department chair. Even if he has tenure, things like that can get it revoked. There's no need to treat people that way.

Lol I cant believe that OP actually submitted an essay to get him to change his mind on Muslims instead of reporting him! Personally, i wouldve thumped him after class

OP doesn't say what the assignment was or how well written the essay was. citing Wikipedia pages on an English paper will get you a "filth" comment in university
yerawizardlizzy 27
Why do you assume OP cited a bunch of Wikipedia articles? Odd conclusion to come to.

Well in his defense he's allowed to voice his own opinion (as I assume he's a college professor), however he is not allowed to enact that opinion onto the studednts with an unjust bias.
weatherxveins 29
Most colleges have rules against voicing your opinion if it can be qualified as hate speech.

Here, they have rules against hate speech but they still allow ISIS recruiters to go to Universities and convince idiots to drop out and come and kill people. Apparently that's not bad enough to get them stopped.
Sathane 21
Considering that OP is Muslim. I highly doubt he had to consult Wikipedia. Muslims are usually very interested in learning as much as they can about their history.
xenomsftw 19
88, your profile says you're from England. Somehow, I HIGHLY doubt England lets ISIS recruiters into the country.

In most Muslim countries they don't legally allow Christians and Jews to even live there. Look up Saidi Arabia, immigrants from another Muslim country raped women in Cologne, Germany. All Muslims are not "bad", but xonsidering their history of violence and abuse of women, defending Islam is strange.
Mohamedegypt 13
oh yeah muslims are the ONLY religion that has violence in its history. it's so easy to just take the negative than the positive. and please do tell me where you got the information for "most" Muslim countries.
thetruthh 3
Name one Muslim country where they consider women to be anything other than a man's property? Islam isn't the only religion to be started in violence, bit it certainly never promoted peace. It started with war and invasion of Europe and it is Muslim terrorists not Christian or Jewish that are committing terrorist acts this century.

#3 I agree, OP doesn't deserve to be treated that way, and if the teacher gets reported then hopefully they'll get fired. #100 that is wrong on so many levels... Take it from someone who has mostly Muslim friends and has been around other Muslims for most of my life- a majority of the time, they are the sweetest people you will ever meet. And no, a majority of their countries don't keep out Jews and Christians. Does that mean terrorism and segregation doesn't exist? No. But it happens regardless of religion so you can't generalize Muslims.
bellydancer82 15
#102, still wrong.. A woman isn't a man's property, you need to educate yourself or read the Quran or something. And you're not helping the whole violence situation, either. You're contributing to it -_-
rocker_chick105 31
102-because women aren't treated lesser in the Bible at all either, right?

He has no right to say anything like that. Any discrimination against religion shouldn't be tolerated. You need to report this to the department and get him out

All religions are archaic institutions that have done more harm than good to humanity. Thankfully society is becoming more and more secular.
Jnerdy97 13
#69, you disgust me. Why do you blame religion? Religion has nothing to do with everything that's been going on nowadays. It's the fact that we're letting dumbasses make big decisions.

Helpful tip of the day: Muslims generally practice Islam. Their religion is Islam.
zombiekiller52 24
Sounds like you should report him. Seems like there are rules against that sort of thing. None the less no one should do that.
HoboMeth 36
If you ask him why he hates muslims exactly, he'll likely respond with something like "muslims are terrorists!"
weird_adult 27
muslims are beautiful people tainted by the wrong doings of a select few. I find It funny that majority of people hating muslims as a whole are white and God forbid anyone generalize them as the kkk or Else they get bombarded with "not all of us are like that!" and Dont listen to a lick of sense about how they are doing the same Thing to muslims by Calling them all terrorists
DarkCvengence 15
well they are the founders of the world's number one terror group that our dumbass president has done nothing about
Mohamedegypt 13
#93 you really show how much you know about history. you know the Holocaust was just a breeze, wasn't a terroristic act what so ever, Hitler didn't brutally kill millions of jews...but no that's not as bad as now a days .

Reminds me of a porno I saw a while back. Shit man, just report that sorry S.O.B.
cocacola999 27
I'm kind of curious how that porno went. Bigot professor belittles a student for their religion/origin, gets anal in return?
fuckfuckityfuck 16
I think that #44 may be talking about the porno where Mia Khalifa, a Lebanese chick who was #1 on pornhub(not sure if she still is), was wearing a hijab and performing sex acts.
CoffeeChickBlows 13
44, yeah exactly like that. You've seen it too, huh?
Morning_fml 22
I'm kind of surprised to see that your comment hasn't been downvoted. I think people are confused whether to downvote it or to laugh at it and up vote it, and, not deciding what to do, just let it sit there.

Is your teacher Donald Trump?
Schmavid64 13
Depends if the professor also suggested a fence along the Mexican border.

First of all idk where u get the idea that Trump is such a racist that he is the worst person in America. Did you ever truly listen to his immigration policy? Forget about the building the wall comment. Did you ever truly listen to what he saids about his policy for immigration because the way you sound, you sound like you are talking out of your ass. Trump is probably the best candidate for president and that's why I would vote for him. Just before you judge him I advise you to listen to what he really saids about his policies if he became president and stop listening to liberal bullshit media.
Mohamedegypt 13
#95, so how will you make America great again Mr trump?. .."we gonna make America again, cuz America isn't great right now and we will make it great, just like my small loan of a million dollars." "how about that red hat guy that's a great hat!"....it hurts my ears just listening to him.

How can such ignorance prevail in a place where intellectual growth is supposed to be found? The hell?
