    1. My relationship status is "happy." And I most certainly do NOT "hate Hispanics and Lebanese people" nor anyone else based on cultural background, race, ethnicity, gender, or any other essentially superficial characteristic. But I admit, I do harbor a rather intense dislike of prejudice and bigotry.
