在国外的简历中，个人信息只需要提供姓名和联系方式，一般是不需要提供这些详细信息的。我觉得这些信息太过于私人化了，如果要求提供这些信息，不是容易造成种族，年龄或者外貌上的偏见吗？

In foreign resumes, you only need to provide your full name and contact information in the personal information section. They usually don't require you to provide this kind of detailed information. I think this information is too personal. If they ask you to provide these things, doesn't that make it easy to have prejudice based on race, age or appearance?
