The future of technology and feminism. Are we really going to separate our mind from our bodies? Possibly...
Cybernetic implants would help us, but when will humans stop? We might replace lost limbs or other body parts and evenutally we might even go as far as encasing our brains in computers. Well... I'm getting all of this from an anime that I watch, "Ghost in the Shell." A distant future where people have cyber brains and download their brains to other bodies. Problem is that there are of course hackers who threaten the lives of people. We may get upgrades, but it comes with greater dangers. Now is this likely to happen? Who knows, it depends on how much we decide to dehumanize ourselves. Starts off with an arm and a leg, but soon it comes to whole body parts.
So would anyone here want cybernetic implants? If so, why? If not, why?
