It's happened to me twice now where I've caught my reflection in public and it took me a second to realize it was me

And both times my initial thought before realizing it was me was that the guy approaching me (my reflection) was a straight up mogger

I was thinking that my biases are surely removed in these circumstances compared to when I consciously look at my reflection

Or is it a case that I see some geezer with the same archetype and colouring as me and automatically just assign him the mogger label at first glance which shows a level of bias?

If you are wondering how it could take me a second to realize I was looking at my own reflection, it's because the mirrors were placed in very odd positions in shops and I turn my head to look right at the time I catch my reflection and perhaps having had surgery plays into it as well because catching my face at certain angles in different mirrors can still look unusual to me

If we assume that I actually look the way I do in these reflections when I am judging from a 3rd person perspective with my biases removed (minus some PSL points since the mirror image isn't flipped so I'm seeing it the way I'm used to) how am I not able to get at least something in terms of foids?

This is one of your shortest posts ever.
Are you feeling okay?

lol I constantly don’t remember what I look like and I legit get shivers if I see someone that looks similar to myself irl or on TikTok
