&gt;I know I&#x27;ve had many and extensive (and quite good) conversations with my fiancee as to how she was brought up in a family that valued emotional reasoning over logical reasoning.<p>I understand that most people value emotional reasoning more than I do.  I don&#x27;t get people valuing it more than logical reasoning.<p>There is just so much potential danger with implicit and explicit bias.  Sexism and racism tends to be more the result of emotional reasoning than logical reasoning.  (Think of a jury&#x2F;judge sentencing a black guy to a harsher sentence than a white guy who did the same crime.  Imagine if the difference between if the justification was the black guy felt more dangerous vs a justification such as in this instant the black guy having similar prior offenses.  Which justification is racism?)
