Am I worth less because of the way I look? Not worthless, but worth less. Just because I'm over-weight, I have long hair, and I have facial hair, does that mean I'm not entitled to make as much as some one else?

Considering the area I live in, it's hard to be taken seriously for being "unique". Bible belt military town...
