How to use "Partiality" in context?
Coming from a place of love, care and neutrality, impartiality is the foundation of our ethics. It is the principle whereby people deal impartially with all individuals and groups, without favoritism or prejudice.
Nevertheless, we are all human and are therefore susceptible to partiality. This is the preferential and sometimes subconscious treatment of some individuals, groups or things over others, without admitting to or understanding it. In times of stress, for instance, we may be more prone to favoring individuals or groups who are similar to us in terms of background, interests, or ideology. Our judgments may also be clouded by personal attachments and biases.
