Implicit Bias Test 3-9-21

I was extremely surprised at the results of the implicit bias test I took. I chose to take the test about weight and was shocked at my results that showed a 31% automatic preference to thin people. I thought this number would be much lower. I credit this to my involvement in athletics. My friend group is primarily made up of division one athletes who are all in tremendous shape. I believe this heavily influenced my answers on this test. I was also surprised because I myself am moderately overweight and I have always been about body positivity and acceptance of others regardless of weight. I think that this test is extremely telling not just for myself but also others in the sense that weight is a sensitive issue that unknowingly pushes others away from each other. I think this is something that can be avoided going forward.
