Using Oculus Rift To Swap Your Gender

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 01/22/2014 09:53 AM | source: | 23 comment(s)

Okay, this has awkward written all over it. What at first seemed like a silly toy for video games now seems to have promise as a device for increasing empathy and intimacy.

"Cancel those hormone pills and be the women you always wanted to be!"

Also, I take it this is the first time there's been actual breasts on Guru3d that weren't: http://forums.guru3d.com/showpost.php?p=4730049&postcount=1377

Weird, not weird, in my opinion it's interesting project.

But it should be considered as asking questions and getting answers, not suggesting what is good or bad, no judging, and not creating fear and uncertainity.

We shouldn't be that prejudiced. Also, many standards in various culture traditions are discriminating towards some part of the society (eg by gender, skin color, sexual preferences) or make people assume things that shouldn't be that obvious or that people should ask (eg ask if someone likes / doesn't like something instead of assuming, that women do this or that). If you think such question is improper or wrong in some regard, perhaps you should ask what's the source of such thoughts and in what situations they may be harmful.

the video seemed very 'indoctrinating' flavoured, I don't wanna be a woman, and i'm sure women don't wanna be men.
but sure this'll be in the primary schools by years end, ..indoctrinating.

Weird, not weird, in my opinion it's a useful project.

It's about giving an interesting possibility of asking and getting answers.

We shouldn't be that prejudiced. Also, many standards in various culture traditions are discriminating towards some part of the society (eg by gender, skin color, sexual preferences) or make people assume things that shouldn't be that obvious or that people should ask (eg ask if someone likes / doesn't like something instead of assuming, that women do this or that). If you think such proper is improper or wrong in some regard, perhaps you should ask what's the source of such thoughts and in what situations they may be harmful.

No judging at all, i personally just find it weird. To each his own.
