The Credibility Gap: How Sexism Shapes Human Knowledge | Soraya Chemaly | TEDxBarcelonaWomen
It's a man's world...but what does that mean? Today, when you Google "Are Women...?" the most likely suggested answer you'll get is "Evil." What does the suppression of women's experiences and knowledge in culture and media mean in terms of human understanding? How does a global suppression of women's experiences, perspectives and storytelling result in injustice and inequality? This talk dives into the question of what male-centered culture really means.
Defining Implicit Bias:
Also known as implicit social cognition, implicit bias refers to the attitudes or stereotypes that affect our understanding, actions, and decisions in an unconscious manner. These biases, which encompass both favorable and unfavorable assessments, are activated involuntarily and without an individual’s awareness or intentional control. Residing deep in the subconscious, these biases are different from known biases that individuals may choose to conceal for the purposes of social and/or political correctness. Rather, implicit biases are not accessible through introspection.

"When you hold preconceived thought and beliefs this can manifest itself in sometimes ugly ways and at the very least can skew your judgement. I think at some stage in our lives we have all been guilty of holding unjust prejudices against people for no particular reason other than something we have been told about them."
"A photograph is shaped more by the person behind the camera, than by what is in front of it"
Muito interessante, quando quem observa é influenciado por aquilo que lhe contam. Por aquilo em que acreditam. Sem conhecerem, de facto, a pessoa...
O problema é quando esta situação se transpõe para a vida real, e quando se elaboram juízos de valor e se emitem opiniões mal informadas...

"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up your men to collect wood, and give orders and distribute the work. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea."
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
You think you're right, even when you're wrong.
"If you really want to improve your judgement as individuals and as societies, what we need most is not more instruction in logic or rhetoric or probability or economics. Even though those things are quite valuable. But what we most need to use those principles well, is the 'scout mindset'. We need to change the way we feel. We need to learn how to feel proud, instead of ashamed, when we notice we might have been wrong about something. We need to learn how to feel intrigued instead of defensive, when we encounter some information that contradicts our beliefs. What do you most yearn for? Do you yearn to defend your own beliefs? Or do you yearn to see the world as clearly as you possibly can?"
Julia Galef
"This is a case of what scientists refer to as “motivated reasoning,” a phenomenon in which our unconscious motivations, desires and fears shape the way we interpret information. Some pieces of information feel like our allies — we want them to win; we want to defend them. And other pieces of information are the enemy, and we want to shoot them down."

"But I think if we could turn the dial a bit, and try to take what the
philosopher Henry Sidgwick called “the point of view of the universe”,
and look from above, and realize that we are not special, none of us
are, I think it would just cause a transformation."
"That something can be used for good isn’t necessarily a knockdown argument for it."
"Here I draw a lot from Buddhism, which focuses on compassion and
kindness, loving kindness, as they call it, but rejects empathy because
it’s a poor moral guide. And I think there’s a lot of evidence
suggesting that they’re right"
"I taught a course called “Habits of Mind” last semester with a friend of
mine, Tamar Gendler, who is a philosopher, and we explored questions
such as the relationship between emotions and reason, and what it is to
live a good life."
"I think we should really discourage this sort of empathic engagement
when it comes to making moral decisions. I think we should focus on
something like compassion, on getting people to care more for others
without putting ourselves in their shoes. I think, for instance, there’s
some evidence that when it comes to being a doctor or nurse, a police
officer or therapist, that empathetic engagement leads to burn-out.
Imagine if you’re dealing with severely ill children, and you felt their
pain all the time, and the pain of their parents—you wouldn’t be able
to do that job for very long. It would kill you. What you need is to
care for them, but have some distance. Pull back. That’s what I’m
arguing for."

[...] During the same period, there were ninety-four clinical trials of
acupuncture in the United States, Sweden, and the U.K., and only
fifty-six per cent of these studies found any therapeutic benefits. As
Palmer notes, this wide discrepancy suggests that scientists find ways
to confirm their preferred hypothesis, disregarding what they don’t want
to see. Our beliefs are a form of blindness.
[...] It
feels good to validate a hypothesis,” Ioannidis said. “It feels even
better when you’ve got a financial interest in the idea or your career
depends upon it. And that’s why, even after a claim has been
systematically disproven”—he cites, for instance,
the early work on hormone replacement therapy, or claims involving
various vitamins—“you still see some stubborn researchers citing the
first few studies that show a strong effect. They really want to
believe that it’s true.
[...] scientific research will always be shadowed by a force that can’t be curbed, only contained: sheer randomness.
[...] Such
anomalies demonstrate the slipperiness of empiricism. Although many
scientific ideas generate conflicting results and suffer from falling
effect sizes, they continue to get cited in the textbooks and drive
standard medical practice. Why? Because these ideas seem true. Because
they make sense.
[...] The
decline effect is troubling because it reminds us how difficult it is
to prove anything. We like to pretend that our experiments define the
truth for us. But that’s often not the case. Just because an idea is
true doesn’t mean it can be proved. And just because an idea can be
proved doesn’t mean it’s true. When the experiments are done, we still
have to choose what to believe.

"Macrae e colegas investigaram a influência exercida por estereótipos sobre o pensamento e, em particular, de que maneira inibimos pensamentos impróprios. Em seu experimento, os participantes foram convocados a julgar uma pessoa. A fim de motivá-los a reprimir seus preconceitos, os voluntários foram acomodados diante de uma câmera de vídeo e podiam contemplar a própria imagem numa tela de televisão. De fato, esse truque induziu ao menos alguns deles a encobrir seus preconceitos, até o momento em que a câmera foi desligada. Então, sob a alegação de que um defeito técnico havia ocorrido, a experiência foi repetida. Justamente pessoas que antes haviam conseguido controlar seus preconceitos passaram a dar vazão entusiasmada a estereótipos. O contragolpe da repetição as pegou desprevenidas."

Quando estava contente a boca sabia-lhe a maçã.
Dava pulos e extravasava alegria.
Naquele tempo tinha vergonha dela.
Porque a minha timidez encarcerava-me.
Todos lhe dávamos um desconto.
Todos lhe dávamos "lições".
Hoje, daria um desconto às suas manifestações de frustração e impotência, por saber que há marés contra as quais não se consegue lutar.
Morreu vítima de tanto sofrimento.
Hoje dava-me jeito que estivesse por aqui.

The whole event solidified and created this notion in my own mind and in my social status.
Who I was, was an alcoholic and drug addict."

Um dia conheci uma senhora que durante boa parte da sua infância e juventude, — talvez pela sua forma genuína e diferente de estar, talvez por ser a mais velha dos seu irmãos e esperarem dela a reprodução dos valores da família, quer ela os entendesse, aceitasse ou não, e ela não estivesse para isso — foi sendo "rotulada" de louca pelos familiares mais próximos. Foi, assim, rotulada e acabava sendo tratada como tal. Um estigma pesadíssimo que teve que carregar pela vida fora e que influenciou e alterou dramaticamente toda a sua sofrida existência. Pagou um preço demasiado alto. Testemunhei boa parte desse sofrimento. Dessa frustração e dessa sua impotência em lutar contra os membros da sua família que se apoiavam uns nos outros para justificarem esse seu gesto discriminatório. Achando-se senhores do conhecimento absoluto. Seu pai, embora sendo técnico de saúde, era médico de clínica geral. Não era psicólogo nem psiquiatra. Por sinal, era uma pessoa bastante prepotente, segundo relatos que pude recolher.
Sempre me entristeceu a situação daquela senhora.
Tive mais sorte do que ela, mas aprendi a compreendê-la muito bem.
