Quite refreshing that this article was published by Forbes. Even tho I think more studies need to be made, I would argue that it's public perception that needs changing. Public perception is not necessarily influenced by science, if that was the case we would be living in different societies worldwide. I think public perception is more influenced by the existing narratives, and we have a saying on them. Maybe among other things, we might need to start asking different/new questions?
