-Above-average intelligence but and underachiever
-Racist to some degree
-Non-Religious

Sounds about right except for the straight part, that I'm not really an underachiever ... More like an .. Achiever?

And also I'm opposed racism. In the way that that makes sense, of course. I mean, I know that racism is often something subconscious, and that it happens automatically. To me as well, I'll admit that - but that counts for general discriminating. Uhm .... But whenever I find myself hearing someone openly and purpously being racist. Hang on, let us just go for discriminating, as this is true for all sorts of discrimination. Anyhow - whenever I'm witnessing that event, I will tell them off. I will make it clear that I for one will not stand for this

And the thing about that is that I know I may not stop the discrimination. Not even the currently ongoing one. And I surely won't stop that person from discriminating again. But I will voice an opinion. And people will know that that's my opinion on the matter. Even more importantly - people will know that there's one more around sharing their view on this matter. And that's one of the most important things about fighting discrimination - letting people know how many oppose it. Discrimination, that is.

Because when this person finds out he/she's not the only one opposing discrimination, that person might head out and voice it's opinion the next time the possibility rises. And so the cycle goes on. Soon, the opposers of discrimination will outnumber the discriminators, and they'll force them to obey common sense. I know this may be a bit far fetched, but it's my dream.

Uh .... So yeah. In short, I guess I'm a bit racist ...

And a anecdote. "games could be anything from "hide-and-seek" to video games. In that sense, everyone has played them at least some =P

This sounds like the kind of rampant generalization that astrology and similar stuff puts out.

My thoughts exactly! But .. To be fair ... He did say it was a form of generalization =P

And about the gay/bi group of gamers ...
I'm fairly certain there's allready a site an forum for that called "Gaymers" ... But yeah! Totally, dude! I'm in ^^

 

[Fetzenfisch]

I AM
-Male
-Age 26
-Straight
-Grew up somewhere in the middle class playing tons of video games but not before teen age. As a kid i earned my scars and scratches playing in the woods. I had an Atari 2600 back then, but i didnt play a lot.
-Above-average intelligence yeah i sign that. Underachiever? hell no academic success fell into my hands without doing shit for it. I "studied" for my A-Grade tests about an hour on the same morning and thats for all of them combined.
-Anti-Racist ,anti-fascist and anti-homophobia in an organized and active way. Spend my share of hours held by the police for that so far.
-Anti-Religious in a direct offensive and intolerant way. I will judge you as intellectually inferior the second you have your superstitious outing.

 

[Haagrum]

Three out of seven. I believe people are people, that there's something more than just existence as we know it, and I've done well career- and study-wise.

And apparently, I really am getting too old for this shit.

[Henkie36]

-Male
-Yes, I'm 16
-Straight
-Well, tons of games is exagerated
-Above average intelligent, but i'm going to the second highest level of high school. But I have two good reasons not to go to the highest level: 1) It's fucking impossible if you have any intentions of keeping somewhat which resembles anything of a social life. 2) I don't want to waste every second of free time I have reading schoolbooks and doing homework.
-Racist jokes are funny, get over it!
-And I don't believe in any form of God, but if you want to, go ahead, I'm not gonna judge you by it.

So yeah, this list applies to me fairly precise.
