Sexism

For the initial post, address the following:
• State your position on one of these issues – are you for, against, or neutral?
Explain why. Avoid vagueness or ambiguity in your response. Make your
position very clear.
• Examine how you have formed that opinion.
o How well do you think you know the facts?
o Do you know and understand statistical information that applies to the
issue?
o Do you think you have formed your opinion using only System-1
thinking, or have you applied System-2?
o What part have heuristics, cognitive bias, and dominance structuring
played in how you have formed your opinions?
The initial post is not about how “correct” your position is; it is about how you arrived at
your position on the issue. This discussion requires application of metacognition –
thinking about how you think.
