IAT - Implicit Association Test

When I got done taking my IAT test, I was really kinda surprised with what my results were. I took the test about gender. It was weather you think a mans place is in the work force and if a womens place is in the home. Before I took it I was pretty sure that I would be pretty equal about both. But when I got done, it told me that I thought the women should be more in the home and a mans in the work force.

This really confused me, because both of my parents work full time jobs. I mean my mom works with the medical records for Aspirus, and my dad works for County Materials. So with both of them being successful in their jobs, and most of the time liking what they do. (I mean you can't always love your job.) But I figured that that little fact might play into my ideas a little bit. But I guess my subconsious mind had a different idea.
