There has to be a period of adjustment, a period of accustomization. And I think typical secular environments don't have that. While they think there should be accustomization for some groups, evidently it's not for others.
This, I think reflects the bias inherent in typical secular environments.
And why "should" it be there? Some groups get accustomed easily because their values match up with the secular ones. Others don't because theirs' don't. If secular environments had that period of adjustment for some groups, then that would suggest bias in favor of those groups. You can't be biased for doing nothing.
