Implicit Biases

I took 3 tests, Race, Career-Gender, and sexuality. My results were a little surprising to me because I like to think of myself as a nondiscrimination person. My results were very slightly on either side of the spectrum. I do believe that as I am a straight, white, male that is how all of my results turned out. For the Race, it said that I have a slightly more preference for white people over black people. I can see that I have a slight preference purely because my group of friends are mostly caucasian but I do not go out of my way to stray away from any group of people. Secondly, I associated females with family and male with career. I do believe this association only started because of movies, TV shows, and other media. Lastly, for sexuality I am naturally also associated with straight people. I also again do not feel like I have any discrimination towards any sexuality and I personally have multiple gay and african american friends. My personal friend group includes, a black gay male, Lebanese male, Korean male, Indian male, and jewish male as my best friends. This was the most diverse group of friends I have ever heard of and I wouldn't want it any other way.

I personally did not like the quizzes. I figured it was more of a game and a memory test than an internal biases. This causes me to think that the results are not exactly accurate. My results are very minimal on every end, so it could be possible that tests are truthful and I don't realize my implicit biases.
