People assume that I'm Scottish because I have red hair, and thus assume that I have an anger issue, which I don't.
Does that count?

Being a white American male, I've been the attack of racism and sexism constantly. I can't get a job in certain places, cause they look at me and go "You won't fit the..description we need for this job." Women yell at me constantly and tell me I'm a sex crazed dog.
But honestly, if only non-whites and females can be the receivers of racism and sexism..isn't that just racist and sexist in itself?

Until I see that study I'm calling zombie bullshit. Until I see that study, as far as I'm concerned, you yourself are being discrimatory (Spelling?).silentsentinel said:

Sadly enough, yes, I have been subject to racial discrimination. Turns that there actually are some real *******s in California (minority, but still).

The objective of an insult isn't to point something out. It's to get a reaction.FreelanceButler said:
Every student in my situation is an immature 12-year-old child, apparently...
We get bashed for starting college early about once a week.
Its hilarious to see people jeering at me like monkeys, saying that I'm the immature one.
I haven't been treated that... Stupidly, for a lack of a better adjective, since 3rd grade.

Any, back to OP. On XBL I have numerous people shouting at me on lobbies about my GamerTag (same as my escapist name) the best reply was "hey hey Blackjack, are you blaaaaack?" to which i replied, "No, BigBubbleBob. Are you a Big Bubble?" he didn't like that when everyone on the lobby ripped into him.
Its annoying when people think that white people are excluded from racism, we had this from our headteacher (who was white) at secondry school, or we get the blaime for basically everything. At college an email was sent because the asian community at my college basically know each other before coming to college and i know alot of them are cousins, second cousins. So they are social together and hang around with each other. But they do most of the time talk to other people. Then this year 12 came along sent a letter to the principle saying he felt that he had to go into this social group and basically the tone of the letter went, it was our fault because this kid hadn't made any friends yet! It was so annoying and the asian people in my year that i'm friends with were also annoyed by this email gah.
At my archery club they wouldn't let me help set out the course because i was a girl and they put me in the kitchen thing, we had food while we shot at things yay.

Not really, only on the Internet. There are a lot of people who start attacking my nationality if they disagree with my opinion.
However, I've seen unintentional racism in Ukraine when a Ukrainian boy called a half-German boy a "Fascist". Needless to say, he immediately got punched in the face.

I'm a female with a male's haircut. Oh, I 've heard a lot of sexist jokes. No racial discrimination though, they save that for my two Indian friends.
Once and only once. I am of Portugese descent yet for some reason people belive I am Asian due to a slant of my eyes. Despite multiple protests against this most people still belive I'm Asian.
The earliest form of this was when I was only a couple months old. My Mom was taking me shoping at a local JcPenny and she met a man who said "Awww he's so cute. Did you have to go there to Adopt him?"
After futher questioning, the man apparently belived I was an orphan from China.
When I was in Elementary School my nick-name was often the Jap. This was all in good fun, but it got annoying. I didn't want to nickname based on my looks. Yet they kept calling me that until I transfered out.
The most recent form of this was about 2 years ago. It was the first day of School and the new teachers were learning our names. So the teacher decided to do a little excercise. She gave us a paper and paired people up. The point of the excercise was to talk to the person a little bit and write about what you think of them just through this conversation.
The guy I got paired up with wrote down "He seems like a funny little Asian dude." When I pointed out to him that I was actually Portugese, he stared at me in disbelif and still often forgets that I am Portugese.

Sometimes I get shit over the internet for being an Aussie (um...) but it doesn't really bother me, because most of the people doing that are too stupid for me to give a fuck.
Eh I haven't been discriminated against but one of my ex-coworkers has had some shit said to her about she should go back to Mexico where she was from.
The ironic thing about that? She was actually German.

No, not to me personally.
Well, I guess everybody knows an idiot or two who tries to pick on them.
But nothing really discriminatory.
And when I went to Britain, I was too young to be called a Nazi, I guess.
But my classmates who went there when they were teenagers as part of an exchange program (I went to Russia instead) were given the Hitler salute all the time and stuff like that.
