Prime minister Gordon brown used this word against a woman in Britain four days ago. She questioned PM Brown on immigration issues in UK recently while he was campaigning.Later he appologised to the woman. The spelling may be wrong. Could not find it any dictionary. Help !!!!!!!!What is the meaning of a bigetted(not sure of the spelling) woman?
I think the word that you're looking for is bigoted; it means prejudiced. When a person considers another lesser in some form based on race, religion, or background, instead of based on the individual themselves. Bigotry or prejudice means to prejudge, which today we know is quite foolish. It is used as a means of feeling superior and a means of gaining a sense of power, which of course is also foolish.
Well the PM should apologize. Bigotry has caused much harm in the world for centuries. When politicians resort to use of it (in this case he was prejudging the woman), it shows a level of desperation and weakness on their part.What is the meaning of a bigetted(not sure of the spelling) woman?
He called her a bigot.
A bigot is a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices.What is the meaning of a bigetted(not sure of the spelling) woman?
Bigoted: blindly and obstinately attached to some creed or opinion and intolerant toward others.
Basically when someone has fairly close minded about an idea or issue and cares not what other people think regarding this "opinion". They are annoying, pompous, obnoxious, often loud, and not generally pleasant to be around.
