2) Racial Discrimination- People with odd skin colour are treated like aliens, are treated harshly and does not enjoy special privileges. 
3) Gender Discrimination- One of the gender is preferred over the other, and are treated unfairly, usually bias towards men.
4) Disability Discrimination- People with disabilities are neglected by normal people.
5) Religious Discrimination- People are treated differently from what they do or do not believe, due to their religious and practices.
6) Ancestry Discrimination- People may regard you from your forefathers if you descend from a infamous character, you will be looked down upon.
7) Language Discrimination- Your choice of language, in terms of class, group or category may be disliked by other people.

Those are the main types of discrimination. Here are some minor forms:

Based on: Nationality

                Appearance
                Marital Status
