Traits of fairmindedness:
- entertain all moral viewpoints sympathetically
- assess without reference to your own feelings on the topic
- be self-critical -- assess your own views as strictly as you assess the views of others
- willingness to adhere to moral standards even if they disadvantage you
Rawls: try to assess a situation as if you do not know your own position in society, talents, and abilities.
Hume -- emotional sense of morals, reason is subsidiary
Kant -- reason about morals (without emotion)
