I do often find that I am discriminated against by my wife who has on more that one occasion laughed at me while in full lycra, does that count?
On the other hand my eldest daughter (4) has seen me in said lycra gear and said "you look cool daddy", which I know I don't. I don't think she is old enough to grasp irony, so I am wondering if she is discriminating against me or me her? Too much to comprehend.
Cycling on the other hand, I have found to be a very inclusive past time. Other cyclists have always seemed very encouraging and supportive of newbies, be they rich, poor, fit or otherwise. I do find it transcends many barriers and think that the world is a better place for it.
