i think that it's easy for us to dehumanize people based on simple things, (i.e. how they look, how they talk...). but i don't really feel that, that's fair to them. calling someone an ogre, won't do anything but lower their self-esteem which might already be low. we don't actually know what a person deals with internally, so the way we treat them is important. the qualities that we hate most in them might be an attempt to fit in, or a defense mechanism.
remember, a wise man once said, "a person is a person no matter how small".
