Virtual reality used to transfer men's minds into a woman's body | Science | The Guardian

Wait what? All they did was have someone slap you in a visual. You'd probably flinch whether you're in a girls body or not!!

This article is stupid. You can't feel like a women just because you see it.

Pic VERY related.

(LOL 27 Guests reading this. Anyway fail article, it isn't transferring a man's mind into a woman's body unless the man can actually feel what the woman is feeling. Then the man would probably just start...doing...yeah...)

I bet they could do almost exactly that, imagine the researcher slaping the test subject right as he got slaped in the virtualy reality. I dont know what would happen but im sure it would be incredably funny.

And we all know what the men would do if they could actualy feel what the woman was feeling

POLKA DANCING!

And for some reason kitaeks picture reminded me of something i saw in fooly cooly, i dont know what exactly it is though, im thinking its my imagined sound effects for the picture matches the sound effects in parts of foolycooly.

They should focus on storing the conscience into data.
Inmortality anyone?

You mean Spelling Nazi, right?

/Context Nazi

This is nothing new and the way they advertised the information was very misleading. Virtual reality therapy has been around forever, though it was usually employed as a treatment to lower high levels of anxiety. The reverse effect should also hold true. It shouldn't be surprising that the subjects were shocked when they were shown the image of being slapped. Anyone without steel nerves would've felt shocked for the matter.

Also, I didn't like how the article failed to mention that a part of the sensation of feeling like a female could have been attributed to being told about the experiment beforehand. In other words, the sensation they felt could have been caused by bias and not visual sensation.
