You can do your best to try to stop being biased, but it's inside everyone. No matter how much you attempt to deny it. It's there. Discrimination and prejudice is a human trait that is embedded into our culture.

The fact that Google is attempting to equal out the gender roles in their company is a good role model, and other companies should attempt to do this as well.

I agree that all humans have at least a slight amount of bias within them. It is undeniable. However, although a small amount of bias belief cannot be stopped, one does not have to display a great amount of bias. Also, your bias does not even have to be displayed to others. Though you may think it, do your best to not let it show. Perhaps it will be a step towards equality.
