Why is it that people today and in the past judge others on their physical appearance? What makes people not want to associate with others because they look different from themselves? Where do we learn what is OK, and who has been teaching this?

I believe those of us who are sighted will have some bias as to what/whom we see. (A smiling person may cause another to smile, a well-dressed person may command respect, envy, etc., a sloppily dressed person may elicit comments, stares, looks of disgust.) A non-sighted person, even though he or she may not see, might, via other senses, react positively or negatively to a person or situation. Attraction to another is not easily explained. Attractiveness to many is generally easily explained in that a person is generally found acceptable to the masses because of societal standards of acceptance. I believe senses, living life and our individual choices dictate what is acceptable to each of us.
