Status: offline 		I haven't voted because I'm assuming that the poll refers to typical or static biases and if there are any I see them as transient, often specific to one thread or a few or occurring in posts across the board on a particular day or night.

We're all individuals and we all have our biases, as has been stated previously, which are relative to our interests and life experiences. Some people post only in specific areas of the board, others in different areas, some across the board, some post more than others, and I also feel that even the people posting varies so much from day to day.

The only real bias which I feel is static is a pro-American bias which isn't at all nationalistic or patriotic, but occurs simply because the majority of posters are in fact Americans and are relating to subjects from their own native perspective. This is noticeable because of the isolationist nature of American culture and society in general. This actually makes the boards quite a useful resource in learning quite a bit about American culture and society in ways which you don't quite find from watching 'The Simpsons' or 'Hill Street Blues'.

If you're still miffled at the gentle handling you got on that thread, then whatever you do, do NOT go down to the P&R forum!

I'm not that broken up over it, in all honesty, I'm just saying I feel it's a bit of a trend. Not a very big one, but a bit of one, anyway. I've taken a lot more crap for a lot less. The short version is people are real jackasses about furries.

And I've been in P&R.
So much blood...

Personally, I am biased against the stupid.

i take it that that's because you're the one of the "last honest people on collarme". Do you think there's a bias against honesty? Do you think the biggest bias around here is for, or against, individual posters, instead of genders or orientations?

I'd tell you the truth, but I'd get this topic pulled for no reason.

I don't find them all that foreign really. My favorite poster is Roch, because I find that almost everything he says resonates with me and my experience. That's why I have the "WWRD" in my signature. I have deliberately done searches for his comments on issues I have on my mind several times. So male/female just doesn't seem so great a gulf to me in many ways. This may be because I'm just weird though.

i don't think you're weird. i think there are some elements that are universal across experience. Roch is awesome and always has something sound to say, no matter what the topic is. but i do also think that there are differences in the way we think and perceive events. those differences are interesting to me. the similarities are interesting, too -- i think i'm just really drawn to contrasts, though, so that's what mostly catches my eye.
