    Depends on whether or not I know them personally. If not, I think in terms of what I know about them. Artists, I think in terms of their art - and if a person's art draws largely on their religion, ethnicity or whatever, then that colours my perception.

    Thank you for your reply Sbf. Words come first usually. So what comes out of their mouths is how I perceive them. Everything else comes after!  Happy Saturday! :)

    I think of people in terms of actions. Short and to the point I know, but then again I am too.

    For me it is their words. What they say. How they say it. That shapes my perceptions and the words either draw me in/appeal to me or repel me and I keep my distance. Thank you for your reply Zack and Happy Saturday! :)
