What am I accusing the author of? An attention-grabbing headline, a long-winded unreadable article that refuses to get to the point, and an opening example that is implicitly interpreted as showing bias when it could show any number of things.
I just took the male/female vs. family/career IAT. It starts out with a couple dumb questions where the correct answer "Wat?!" isn't even available. Then I get "weak association between male and career". But the funny thing is that this is based on how fast I answer, not on correctness. The test where male/career and female/family each share a key is last. By that time I've seen the same words so often that I simply respond faster because I read faster. What a surprise.
And finally...
> she believes that the bias exists and is merely looking for evidence
She'll find it if only she keeps looking for it long enough. Am I the only one who thinks that's not exactly scientific?
