I think everyone is judged by there appearance. It's human nature.
I have been told numerous times that I look like a school teacher. I'm never really sure what that means, but it's a noble profession so I take it as a complement. In reality, I could never put up with all the hassle that teachers do. I wouldn't last one day.
Haha whenever I volunteer at my son's class I comment to the teacher it's a good thing I'm not a teacher.
but you're right it's natural to judge people by appearance since it's your first "interaction" with a person.
I was in a toy store with my girlfriend a month ago and while looking at stocking stuffers and came upon those little stress toys that pop out in various places if you squeeze them. While playing with one a girl (maybe 8-10) came over, picked one up and started talking to me saying that one was her favorite. Thanksgiving was just a week before so I made the stomach bulge out and made a joke that I looked like that after thanksgiving. The mother noticed the interaction and quickly called her daughter over. In her mind she was a hero for saving her daughter from certain kidnapping.
I'm positive that if the girl and talked to my girlfriend instead of me, the mother wouldn't have cared or given it a second thought.
People think I'm mean because I keep a straight face and I'm tall. Lol
@hunterstump0922 every try slouching???
but really? Tallness makes you scary?
Slouching is not good posture! Lol come on, you don't like tall guys?!
I'm tall for a girl so I see no problem with tall people, unless they're freakishly tall then it's like wtf!?!?
Being tall is cool. You see more, you can stand in the back of a crowd and still see what's going on. When you trip you have more time to react before you hit the ground!
and people ask you to reach things on the top shelf at the grocery store. I get this all the time and I'm not super tall just average tall

On a side note, I once saved three kittens from drowning.
Lol. Some threads you've just gotta avoid... like Rick Grimes said before he was Rick Grimes...
"It's a self-preservation thing."
I judge everyone as guilty.
