 While many people may have expected
me to be on the other side of this
debate...I am not. Judging is quite
sad in that you never give the
person the chance to see you for
you and to see them for themselves.
Many of sweet people have I met
because I kept on even though my
mind had prejudged. Many times,
thankfully, I was wrong. Look to
the heart of a person that is more
important for sure. |

Whether its a date, a book, a
friend or a stranger. We mustn't
judge anything by the way it looks.
If we did that, someday we'll come
to know that we made a big mistake
and these can cause regretting
sometimes. |

I have been surprised to find out
things about a person that I
thought was different than my
original impression, so I would
have to say yes. |

Unfortunately beauty speaks very
loud without making any sound &
effects very deeply on anyone's
thinking power.
I agree that we shouldn't judge
someone by their looks. If we like
someone's looks & get interested in
them, then we should first know
them more by
having some lunches/dinners with
them & If we think that we click
then go for more serious
relationship. |

Well looks are what 1st make you
into someone but you have to open
the book to see if you like whats
inside. Just because the cover is
good does not mean you will like
the book after you start reading it
if you know what i getting at. |

I say its okay to judge a book by
its back cover, because its purpose
is to say what the book is all
about. When it comes to people that
means don't go by looks alone
(which would be the front cover)
but by the way they act, think,
what they believe in (the back
cover, what its about). After two
or three visits with this person
you should know whats on their back
cover and if the book is right for
you |

The cover has a lot to do with
selling the book. |

Although, I don't use this as a
rule for finding just a "date", I
do use this as a rule of thumb for
finding a MATE. If I went by just
external; physical beauty, success,
wealth, intelligence, etc. I would
not have had some of the most
rewarding relationships of my life. |

This is true. Its not what's on the
outside that always counts, its
whats on the inside. |

 You can definitely judge. If not,
what'll happen once you go to far
and something bad happens? D:
I do it all the time, if I look at
someone in a dark alley, wearing
dark clothes, at night, just
because I don't like the looks of
the setting and the person, I'll
probably not go down and bother
them.
Ah, posted on the wrong side.
I apologize. XD
I'm /for/ judging by the cover. |

You can't judge the book by it's
cover it can only be judge after
reading it's material. |

You can judge a book (a person)by
it's cover(what they look like) but
you will miss finding out what the
book will teach you and what they
can learn from you ...have you ever
seen beauty and the geek? |

Most of the time, we can, although
we may be surprised at times. And
this is true both for the book and
for the people. Sometimes the cover
is the only good thing about a
book. Other times the cover may
not be much, but the content can be
a wealth of treasures. I think we
need to look both inside and
outside, to make sure we don't
misjudge by appearance. |

It's not right but everyone does it
to an extent. Let's face it, it's
hard not to judge someone from your
first impression. |

People probably try to use that in
finding dates, but it probably
doesn't work. You can't go by
looks alone. Judge a person by
his thoughts or actions, not by how
he looks. |

I am against it you need to know
the outside too then judge it |

A book's cover is a static view, as
a still-shot photograph. The
phrase is also used for judging by
what you can see, I will judge by
what I can see of a person's
*actions*, probably more so than
snap-shot appearance.
Alas, the best test would be to
judge what the person does when
seemingly unobserved, but such can
prove legally troublesome for the
observer. |

I think you CAN "judge a book by
it's cover" but that you shouldn't. |
