Sometimes, some situations didn't take long to close it unfortunately, but Ive always given everyone I approach the benefit of the doubt til I could prove otherwise when I was a Federal Officer

YES I definitely am and my answer is not a biased one! I have had many people throughout my life tell me that I'm one of the open-minded people they know. I will engage with anyone - no matter what your background - and be open to listening to what they have to say. I always try not to be biased or judge as the only one who really knows what it's like to be that person - is them.

I am however deterred by closed-minded types. In my perfect world (yes I know I'm dreaming here!) everyone would be more open minded and willing to hear things out rather than form negative opinions based on pre-conceived notions.

Answer 3

I try to be as open-minded as possible, and I think I am, compared to a lot of people.

Your upbringing, culture, mindset and education all have an impact on how open- or close-minded you are. I think anybody can be open-minded, if they care enough to try.

What I Think Has Made Me Open-Minded

The way my mother brought me up — letting me make my own mind up about religion, politics, etc.
Having been regarded as "different" so often in my life (as a foreigner in France, and as an intelligent, oddball bookworm at school)
Having experienced different cultures (living in France and in several very different places in England)
The internet — I know it sounds odd, but just think how much you get exposed to online, and how much you learn about people and things you would normally be dismissive of
The fact that I think it's important to be open-minded
