No. I can’t. Your teacher was stating a perspective. She was stating that she is “blind” to some things because of her culture. This is the ESSENCE of communication: Admitting one’s lack of awareness.

For example, if I say as “male I just have never seen women being discriminated against…” doesn’t mean that I don’t think women have been discriminated against. I am acknowledging my “blindness” to the methods of discrimination.

I am inviting dialog for the other person to educate me.
