==Gender blindness== {{Main|Gender-blind}} Gender blindness is the practice of not distinguishing people by gender.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://medium.com/@sydney.j.randolph/what-is-gender-blindness-and-why-is-it-a-problem-for-women-8d870c35bbfe|title=What is Gender Blindness and Why is it a Problem for Women?|last=Randolph|first=Sydney|date=3 November 2017|website=Medium|access-date=2 November 2019}}</ref> Someone who is gender blind does not necessarily side with ideas of movements found within gender-related biases, though these accounts are debatable.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Linstead|first=Stephen|date=30 June 2016|title=Comment: Gender Blindness or Gender Suppression? A Comment on Fiona Wilson's Research Note|journal=Organization Studies|volume=21|pages=297β303|doi=10.1177/0170840600211007|s2cid=146526638}}</ref> For example, gender blindness can take place while hiring new candidates for a job position. The employer more so focuses on the resume and cover letter rather than focusing on their gender. This reduces gender-bias, meaning there is a preference of one gender to be favored over the other in certain topics and roles.<ref>{{Cite web |author=Minkyung Chung |date=2023-09-08 |title=What is Gender Blindness? |url=https://www.talkspace.com/blog/gender-blindness/ |access-date=2024-03-11 |website=Talkspace |language=en-US}}</ref>
