Dear emdoub, Ladies and Gentlemen;
Judgement is used every day and a lot during that day. It is having what is before us, such as evidence, circumstances, things, words and visual and or other experiences, skills, knowledge and such that we gather from our youth throughout our lives.
Based on our (in a general sense) personal experiences, knowledge and such; with what is before us, such as evidence, words, circumstances and the like; we (in a general sense) do judge. Judging is a 'in process' status in my mind's eyes; borrowing from my own experience as a judge. It is weighing the qualities, the merits, the plus and minus of the criteria of what is under the class and or the case being judged. Often in the field of law, it is known as elements which constitutes a specific crime. In other judging fields, such as in equestrian classes, the elements which constitutes the best qualities exhibited by the equestrian and the equine.
To be a judge/Judge, it requires a personal effort as well as the duties and responsibility as a Judge/judge; to set aside personal bias, prejudice, association and or friendship in order to sit as a Judge/judge. However difficult, I can tell you as a judge --personal side will bleed into the professional side, because we (in general sense) rely on our own personal experiences, knowledge, skills and the power of reasoning/logic.
In the legal system, Judges do have the ability to reverse a decision, to override a decision and to obstain or not judge at all. In a jury trial, it proffers more fair judgment in any case over a judge only case. In the BDSM (in general) theater of things; the majority of individuals do their best to approach others with an open mind and will also retain their initial prejudices, bias, opinions, personal tastes, personal perspectives and judgmental mannerisms and continue with them, until they find a good reason to reverse the original decision. Thus, judging and being a judge is a human's trait.
We, in a general sense always are in the process of judging and or making judgments and or judge, to which is more final in my mind's eyes. From judging what to wear, how to respond to a question and or how to receive a question, comment, statement, letter, etc., from others. So, how things are presented is just as important as the person presenting it.
It is more important in my mind's eye how the 'spirit' of intent and or the cause and affect/effect come into play; which sways my personal judgments and thus influences my stand as a person as well as my stand as a dominant and or my stand as a member of the community at large.
The judgment should be based on the elements and not the person as another human being. Unfortunately, it is difficult to not make it personal if another insists on making it so. It requires effort to maintain on the focus of the topic, the case, the class or anything presented before us, (in a general sense). As far as making judgments about individuals themselves; it really cannot be controlled by humanity. If there is a change in judgment, it is usually inspired and not forced.
Respectfully submitted for consideration,

RE: Judging others... - 
Profile
funny thing is, if you make and state good judgments about people others think the world of you and that you may have good judge of character, and tend to trust your judgment, but the minute you make a bad judgment which may be correct in your understanding or in regards to the person you are judging, then you're the worst person in the world. 
It's all relative.
