About this listen

Gender bias and previous experiences, even if similar, shouldn't be used to form judgements of others. By stereotyping people, we risk falsely judging innocent people as guilty, and not only is that reckless and life-changing for those involved, but it is also legally dangerous. By 'falsely' attacking someone's character or business, they can sue for slander through defamation. It's okay to form opinions, but final judgements should require evidence and a legal process. Most people's lives are their own business, and whether or not we form an opinion, it may not even be our business to be involved. A legal process exists for a reason, and I suggest adhering to it; otherwise, you risk the consequences. It's wise to use intelligence and dumb to react purely out of emotion.
