Bias- is a tendency to lean in a certain direction, either in favor
of or against a particular thing. It maybe favor or against one
thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way
considered to be unfair.
To be truly bias means to lack a neutral viewpoint on a particular
topic. Somewhere along the line, bias took on a negative
connotation. If you’re biased toward something, then you lean
favorably toward it; you tend to think positively of it.
Meanwhile, if you’re biased against something, then you lean
negatively against it; you tend to think poorly of it.
Common Examples of Bias :
A. Gender Bias
B. Religion Bias
Examples:
*A male CEO of a company favor male employees.
*Treating someone like a killer even after years of being
acquitted of murder.
Prejudice- is unfavorable opinion or feeling formed beforehand
or without knowledge, thought or reason. It simply means to
pre-judge others. Prejudice often ends in discrimination.

*It is sometimes assumed that someone who is physically
impaired is also mentally challenge.
*Firing a woman from her job upon learning of pregnancy.

Transcript of the TV commercial:
“Shame that there is still a double standard.
Sayang daw ako, because I am a single
mother. If a guy gets a girl pregnant, he’s right
and it’s natural. But if a girl gets pregnant,
malandi sya. When the news spread of my
pregnancy, people say, she’s on the top of her
game. People make stories like she’s malandi
or a woman of the world. Was I unfairly
judge? Yes! Label is a challenge I accepted. I
want to show people that no matter what
happens to you, it should never stop you from
being successful. As an actress, I’ve never
been happiest. And being a single mom and
parent give me purpose. Sayang! I don’t think
so! Can you whip it? I did!”
---Denise Laurel, shampoo TV commercial.
