We've gone over dominant/target groups in class somewhat. Where do YOUR identities lie? How has membership in those identites shaped who you are today? Do you have any reaction or feeling about the notion of some of them being dominant and others being target groups?

According to our discussion in class, I would be placed more towards the dominant group. Personally, I would never classify people into dominant/target groups. I don't see myself as being better or worse than anyone else based on my age, skin color, where I was born, etc. This is just my opinion, and I know not everyone feels this way but that is who I am.
Let's take for instance if I owned my own business. If two people are applying for a job, I would never consider either of these categories. I would examine the resume or application, and see who is better qualified for the job by skills, personality, and experience. If i was applying for a job, and my competitor was someone in the "target" group, and I found out the only reason I got hired was because I looked different, I would not take the job. I would never want to work under someone who is judgemental in that sense.
