Waiting on the world to change....

Exactly what I'm doin...waiting on the world to change. What makes me sad in this world is that some people can not accept who others are. Why? Where was it ever written down that people have to be one certain way? If anyone finds it, can you let me know?
I just don't get why some people are so discriminatory towards others. Why should it matter what color you are, what style clothes you wear, whether of not you have tattoos or piercings, sexual preference? Why does all of this matter...what defines a human being, and what makes someone so different for being unique, and who they are?
People are seriously scared to express who they really and truly are, and I don't blame them. Who wants to be pointed, stared, laughed at..who wants to be the center of a joke? I doubt anyone would want to endure that feeling.
What is it going to take for society to accept that every person is different in some way? Maybe some more so than others, but it shouldn't matter.
Can anyone offer advice?
