Is the Oculus Rift sexist?

This is a very interesting article about differences between the sexes causing differences in 3D perception and the implications for making technology that works well for men and women.

Unfortunately, the title and last paragraph are horrible. There's just no good reason (other than link bait) to use the word 'sexist' in this context.

Fascinating read. In summary, the author's research seems to show that males tend to rely more on motion parallax to judge depth, while females have a greater reliance on 'shape from shading' - the minute difference in shading that occurs when you move your head about.

Since current systems rely on the former, and shape from shading is damn tricky to handle with real-time head movements, women on average are more likely to feel sick in contemporary simulators.

Interesting. It suggests an opportunity: a startup making an immersive 3D system optimized for the female visual system. Perhaps these folks will nail it: http://technicalillusions.com/

Link-baity title, but article makes some interesting points. More accurate title would've been: Is the Oculus Tailored to Male Visual Processing.
