This should be such an obvious point.
Prejudice means attributing to an individual the real or imagined average characteristics of a group.
It does not mean acknowledging that such differences exist in aggregate.
RT @Miss_Snuffy: Why are people scared of the evidence that says that in general men are more systematic and women are more empathetic?

Why can’t we say this out loud?

RT @julianHjessop: Just updated a favourite chart with today's first estimates for euro in Q1 (and my own estimate for the UK)...
