We are all sinners by nature, and being prejudiced against every other group is how we are wired.
Thus, men and women, and it is straight men and women that I am characterizing here, love and hate the opposite sex, and this complicated, mixed emotional stance towards members of the opposite sex varies a great deal in terms of complexity and degree per each oriented individual
What do we do about this complex orientation to the opposite sex that we are prejudiced against.
First, we must admit that we are biased against them.
Second, we can even apologise for our bias.
Third, we can love ourselves and maverize. Then we have the inner tranquility and resolved built up to love or befriend members of the opposite sex without mistreating or being discourteous towards them.
If we are courteous ad even-handed with members of the opposite sex, then bias become a very minor and trivial issue, best ignored and relegated to old-fashioned irrelevancy.
