      Talk to @angeldnieves also realize VR is deeply sexist (since the tech itself makes women throw up) and chat with Susana Loza at Hampshire about AR. I think the useful critique is coming for feminist media studies rather than AR.

      I would like to see the research that suggests that VR specifically makes women throw up. I have been demoing it in classes across the disciplines to hundreds of students and I have not found that reaction at all. I am not suggesting it doesn't exist, but would like to know more.

      It was flagged earlier by danah boyd. The feminist game scholars have been discussing this. It fits w/ the longer history of video game development that always default assumes players are white men. https://qz.com/192874/is-the-oculus-rift-designed-to-be-sexist/ …

      Thank you! I'm not sure how I missed this on FemTechRhet. For my year-long VR Grant I had three female student researchers - all WOC - and in the 26 demos we conducted none of us noticed this phenomenon.

      It definitely causes motion sickness in some people, but there didn't seem to be a gender divide involved. Rather, it depended on which headset was used.

      Frame refresh rate seems to be a major factor—and women seem to be more susceptible. boyd ‘s research was fascinating re trans women as estrogen levels were increased. That said, practice also seems to help if you are queasy.

      But then the point again seems to be rather like early gaming console history that the game industries do not address inclusiveness & it will hit them in the bottom line. Isn't this a version of the early development of the joystick. In which said joystick was modeled for a tall

          guy and then no one was buying it and they couldn't figure out why. Likewise, VR development repeats this history. Oops, it's not working for a bunch of different bodies (and particularly female bodies for various reasons), but we're not "excluding ppl"... etc.

          and theoretically, in relation to thinking about feminist DH theories & praxis, isn't the point to think about not hiding the bodies or the embodied. But VR fundamentally wants us to imagine us as separated from our IRL bodies. Why hide the embodied labor?

          Good points. I think early on frame refresh rate was limited by the technology, but I like this paper and the fixes they’ve proposed (and that they are working with differently abled bodies) to make VR that works for everyone.

          I don’t know if there have been follow up studies on female-identifying folk with naturally occurring high amounts of test prone and vice versa, but I’d be fascinated to see if it isn’t about sex so much as hormone levels.
