First, if a lack of descriptive accuracy in any particular respect is due to bias, as in the Kodak film case, we must be alive to the possibility that for language models, even when we appear to have descriptive accuracy about how people use language, we might not, at least in some relevant respect, perhaps due to bias in the training data.15 Second, there are various respects in which a system or model might get matters descriptively right about how people use language, and different systems might have differing aims in this regard—for 14 We will say more about why descriptively accurate information can be ethically useful in section 6. keywords: accuracy; bias; biases; case; correctness; data; dilemma; example; language; models; nlp; people; philosophy; scholarship@western; systems; use; word cache: fpq-14292.pdf plain text: fpq-14292.txt item: #26 of 153 id: fpq-14294 author: Elder, Alexis title: Siri, Stereotypes, and the Mechanics of Sexism date: 2022-12-21 words: 13309 flesch: 51 summary: In current surveillance-capitalist implementations of AI voice assistants, there is ambiguity about how voice recordings and related metadata are stored and used (Ng 2019).

Although Tessman provides a trenchant account of how we are thrust into the misfortune of moral failure, often by our very efforts to act morally, and although she shows, through a discussion well-informed by the latest theorizing in ethics, neuroethics, and psychology, how much more moral theory can do than provide action-guiding principles, I argue that the two theses of moral theory that she disputes remain indispensable for ethical theory. keywords: failure; master; ought; slave; tessman; theory cache: fpq-3017.pdf plain text: fpq-3017.txt item: #60 of 153 id: fpq-3020 author: Rivera, Lisa title: Possible Dilemmas Raised by Impossible Moral Requirements date: 2016-07-08 words: 6692 flesch: 51 summary: What makes Tessman’s argument so powerful is that she tackles both of these dilemmas for moral theory holistically and offers a view of moral requirements that squares the moral phenomena with a normative theory that is designed to square with neuropsychology.

In light of this, using “Father” to address God reinforces her personal knowledge of a Father God who condones sexual abuse and like human “fathers” also harbors hostility toward her.16 keywords: 2018; abuse; catholic; church; clergy; dwyer; experience; faith; gender; god; person; relationship; survivors; tobin; trauma; violence; worship cache: fpq-7290.pdf plain text: fpq-7290.txt item: #130 of 153 id: fpq-7291 author: Higgins, Peter title: Three Hypotheses for Explaining the So-Called Oppression of Men date: 2019-07-25 words: 8426 flesch: 47 summary: If (it is not disputed that) people of color are oppressed by racism and the poor and working class are oppressed by economic institutions, no explanatory purpose is served by positing that men are oppressed (in race- and class-specific ways): police violence against black men and the overrepresentation of men of color and poor and working class men in military service are already accounted for by race oppression, class oppression, and their intersection with gender categories. A familiar hypothesis, defended by Kenneth Clatterbaugh (1996, 300–301) and James Sterba (2003, 229),15 holds that certain harms and limitations men experience as men are, in fact, side effects of male privilege and men’s compliance with masculine expectations. keywords: feminist; frye; gender; group; hypothesis; masculinity; men; oppressed; oppression; women cache: fpq-7291.pdf plain text: fpq-7291.txt item: #131 of 153 id: fpq-7294 author: Aragon, Corwin title: Global Gender Justice and Epistemic Oppression: A Response to an Epistemic Dilemma date: 2019-07-25 words: 9374 flesch: 42 summary: To address this epistemic dilemma, I argue that Western feminists need to examine our epistemic relationships to the women for whom we speak, utilizing the concept of epistemic injustice to locate our own complicity in global epistemic injustices.

Non-Western feminists’ “orbit of concern” is thus confined to patriarchal practices in their own contexts and perhaps to occasional countering of Western feminist misconceptions about non-Western contexts—a pattern evident in a great deal of feminist discourse and exemplified in the case of Amina. keywords: article; asymmetries; concern; contexts; countries; feet; feminist; good; jaggar; narayan; non; pogge; poor; subjects; ways; western; westerners; women cache: fpq-7299.pdf plain text: fpq-7299.txt item: #133 of 153 id: fpq-7311 author: Suen, Alison title: The Construction of a Consumable Body date: 2019-03-30 words: 11448 flesch: 53 summary: Suen – The Construction of a Consumable Body Published by Scholarship@Western, 2019 1 The Construction of a Consumable Body Alison Suen Abstract In this essay, I analyze various ways in which pregnant bodies are rendered consumable.

Consent language, I have argued, requires that one is doing something at someone else’s behest; since there can be permissible sex that doesn’t involve one person yielding to another’s request—the kind of sex where consent language won’t even come up—we cannot maintain that consent is necessary for ethical sex. keywords: alice; behest; bob; cases; consent; consent language; ethics; feminist; kukla; language; paper; philosophy; presupposition; sex; theory; use cache: fpq-8302.pdf plain text: fpq-8302.txt item: #149 of 153 id: fpq-8390 author: Clausen, Ginger Tate title: Next Time Means "No": Sexual Consent and the Structure of Refusals date: 2020-12-14 words: 10069 flesch: 57 summary: This paper emphasizes a need to recognize sexual refusals both in public discourse and in the context of particular interactions.
