1: One who is under the age of eighteen. the government put this into place to hopefully stop teenage pregnancy, teenage drinking, and to stop people over the age of 18 from being with the so-called "minor" even if it is consensual to both parties.

2: small; smaller. Not as important.
1: "Dude, that is so fucked up! I've been going with this guy for three years then he turns 18 four months ahead of me, and the police arrested him. that is so fecking stupid!"

Anyone who is not white. Even if whites are technically "the minority" in a country that is mostly another race, the non-whites are still called "minorities", because that's what minorities are!
"I went to Mexico over the summer, there were so many minorities there!! I think I was the only one there that wasn't a minority!"

"Excuse me sir, what race are you?"
"I'm a minority"

Of or relating to Hispanics and Blacks, esp in the media. Many times use of the word "minority" will exclude Asians; when in reference to university populations esp in California Asians will often be referred to as "minority-majority."

Minority: I think that 'minority' is the lesser part of society that just, basically, sits on the back burner, rejected from society. Being individualistic and rebellious to an extent. Not taking too much crap from people. Being apart of the minority puts you at the bottom. But don't bum out about it: The minority is more favorable. Trust me.
" 'Miority' is about being an individual. It's like you have to sift throught the darkness to find your place and be that individual you want to be your entire life."
---Billie Joe Armstrong, Lead Singer of Green Day

Minority isn't just a Green Day song, no. But they did put a nice tag on it.
