When we meet someone for the first time, we generally decide very quickly what kind of person we think they are and if we like them or not. ls this a good thing or a bad thing?

It seems natural for

this
behaviour by saying that there are two systems in our brains. One is for fast processing of information
such
as judging
people
by their outlooks, and the other is to slowly think about things with a comprehensive consideration. And both of these two systems work together in our daily lives which is decided by genes.
On the other hand
