The conclusions we draw based upon mental shortcuts..(stereotypes) lead to unfair judgements and real harm.

All categories of stereotypes are unfair in our daily life... Is this always true? Some circumstances call for quick decisions to be made.For example, personal safety in the face of dangerous situations.
