Subject: Unconscious bias in Occupational quizzes

Posted by: Mistigris
Date: Mar 20 26

Today's "Medium" Daily Challenge was to play 9 quizzes in the Occupational Trivia subcategory. Having done that, I've found that quite a few quizzes have an unconscious gender bias when assigning male or female roles.

I'm referring to the type of quiz that maybe identifies a fictitious person by name and then describes their occupation, where the answer is the occupation.

In this day and age, men can be beauticians, women can be engineers - anyone can be anything - so perhaps it might be beneficial for authors of Occupational Trivia quizzes of this type to revisit and update?

Blame the people writing the quizzes if you don't like a quiz.
