OG-44, As to the explanation that OG offers, I don't understand. Who can help me with your reasoning? Thanks.

Some people have questioned the judge’s objectivity in cases of sex discrimination against women. But the record shows that in sixty percent of such cases, the judge has decided in favor of the women. This record demonstrates that the judge has not discriminated against women in cases of sex discrimination against women.

The argument above is flawed in that it ignores the possibility that

A. a large number of the judge’s cases arose out of allegations of sex discrimination against women

B. many judges find it difficult to be objective in cases of sex discrimination against women

C. the judge is biased against women defendants or plaintiffs in cases that do not involve sex discrimination

D. the majority of the cases of sex discrimination against women that have reached the judge’s court have been appealed from a lower court

E. the evidence shows that the women should have won in more than sixty percent of the judge’s cases involving sex discrimination against women

Explaination that OG offers

The flaw in the argument is that is assumes erroneously that a majority of decisions favorable to women in sex discrimination cases demonstrates absence of discriminatory behavior against women on the part of the judge who made those decisions. E exposes this flaw by pointing out that the judge may well have failed to decide in favor of women in cases where evidence shows that the women should have won. Therefore, it is the best answer.

应该判给女人胜利的案子没判,这不正是歧视么?

前面的60%什么的都是混淆视听的.不能说60%的案子女人赢了就能说明法官是公正的.而是女人应该赢得案子来决定
