The advert is supposed to recognise your features and judge if you're male or female.

brb calling my wayne who cares about stuff like that.




seriously, i see myself as a woman and if this camera doesn't see me as a woman like our whole society, i don't care.

i know what i am and nothing/no one else can define me.

Oookay, just to clarify, it's not actually a magic judgement passing camera that will tell you for always and forever whether you are indeed a woman.

It's just an interesting thing with some implications for transgendered individuals, that's all.
