Language is complex! “Take a deep dive into language issues with this fascinating article about gender in 10 different languages. Gender neutral seems relatively straightforward in English compared to many other languages. This exploration sheds some indirect light on varied cultural responses as well.

Implicit Bias?

“What do people see when they look at me?” Often, others make false assumptions about us based on skin colour, cultural background, gender or sexual orientation.

Hurtful comments can arise from false assumptions and unintended stereotypes. Take a moment to consider how to show sincere respect for all people.
