Societal norms, the Moral Majority and a rant that feels so good

[LSPoorEeyorick]

1) My weight. Somebody overweight surely must be lazy, and eat terribly, and sit on the couch all day.

2) My spirituality. Oh, she was raised Catholic, it must mean she thinks all of the rest of us are going to hell. Or from the other direction... oh, she's not a practicing Catholic. She must be going to hell with the rest of them.

3) My job. Oh, she's low down the totem pole in insurance. She must rob from babies. Or, she must not know enough to be listened to. And she definitely must not have two bachelor's degrees.

4) My creative outlets. Oh, she's into theater, she must be flighty and airheaded. Oh, she's into film, she must want to be a star.

5) My weight. I said it already. It bears repeating.
