The Default Male: How a Hidden Bias Shapes (and Endangers) Our World | Deep Dive Mind HQ

🤔 Ever feel like the world wasn't quite built with you in mind? You might be onto something bigger than you think.

Welcome to Deep Dive Mind HQ! In this eye-opening episode, we explore the pervasive concept of the "Default Male" – the unconscious bias where systems, data collection, product design, urban planning, medical research, and even language are primarily based on male experiences and bodies. We uncover how this isn't usually intentional discrimination, but a deep-seated historical oversight with roots stretching back millennia. Discover stunning examples from car safety 🚗 and heart attack diagnosis ❤️ to AI bias 🤖, workplace structures 🏢, and even the emojis we use daily! ✨

This isn't just an academic discussion. The male default has tangible, sometimes dangerous, consequences, creating inefficiencies and inequities that affect everyone, particularly women. It impacts our health, safety, economic potential, and how we understand history and society.
