gender bias

Read a random definition: corporal punishment

A quick definition of gender bias:

Gender bias is when someone is treated differently because of their gender. This means that a person might be treated unfairly because they are a boy or a girl, or because they identify as a different gender. In some situations, like when deciding who should take care of a child, it is against the law to consider someone's gender. It is also not okay for a judge to be biased or mean to someone because of their gender.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Gender bias is when someone is treated differently based on their gender identity, whether it is real or perceived.

For example, if a teacher gives better grades to male students than female students, that is an example of gender bias. Another example is if a company only hires men for certain positions and women for others, that is also gender bias.

In California, the law says that a court cannot consider a person's gender identity or expression when deciding child custody. This means that a judge cannot give custody to a parent just because they are a man or a woman.

Under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, it is illegal to discriminate against someone based on their gender in any education program or activity that receives federal funding. This means that schools cannot treat male and female students differently or give them different opportunities just because of their gender.

It is also important to note that judges cannot be biased based on gender. They cannot treat someone unfairly or harass them because of their gender.
