Did anybody else think of fair people as pretty people and not just people as the article states?
- chestnut-tree 13y agoYes, I thought the title "Fair people are driven by reason, not emotion" refererred to pale-skinned or white people ("fair-minded" would have been a little bit clearer). The actual headline on the linked article is "Brain scans link concern for justice with reason, not emotion".
- judk 13y agoI thought "just" meant "only", not "fair". Hooray for language.
- lutusp 13y ago> Did anybody else think of fair people as pretty people and not just people as the article states? That was my first impression also. Then I noticed that the article comes to us from the field of social psychology, so I decided it didn't really matter how many words were used in ambiguous ways -- it's not science, after all.
