The collective-timing bias is a form of cognitive tendency to think in a certain way that consists of not understanding that a specific situation or task requires immediate decision by a single person while decision makers affected by collective-timing bias try, consciously or unconsciously, to waste time by sharing the potential decision with anyone around ignoring the fact that:
most people do not have the power to take that decision;
most people do not have interest in that decision making process;
they are in overdue;
they are paid for taking that decision.

Get the Collective-timing bias mug.Gender-bias (also synonymous with gender-specific) is used to describe what is really happening when someone states their sexual preference. If straight, a male is biased towards women, and a straight woman is biased towards men. Gay men towards men, etc. Someone who is not gender biased might be bisexual (prefer both sexes), or might be epicene (does not judge based on sex). Someone might have no gender biase in their sexual preference, but might instead decide to impose a gender restriction to their life-style for one reason or another.
