The biggest problem I have right now with this is "her". The 3rd person possessive and objective cases are identical for female ("her"), but different for male ("him" / "his").<p>So these 2 sentences flip "her" differently:<p><pre><code> It was created by her very quickly
It was created by her very own child
</code></pre>
I'm no NLP expert so if anyone has some ideas, please see this issue: <a href="https://github.com/Garrett-R/gender_bender/issues/2" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/Garrett-R/gender_bender/issues/2</a>
This doesn't "examine gender norms" it just creates a lot of non-sense per book like "She had to go to war like most women and like many ended up amputated and homeless"
> Dawn Quixote<p>Not sure if this is intentional or not, but "Don" in this case isn't a name, but a title. Does the library attempt to determine whether a name that can also be a word is in fact used as a name in a given instance? (Not blaming it for getting this one wrong if it does, since it's a Spanish rather than English word)
The whole gender issue has been very well covered and is now overrated.<p>Much more important is to get people (especially typical parochial Americans) to realize that there exist other human beings in other countries. Even the most sexist American male is aware of gender issues (even if he doesn't agree with them). But even "liberal", "soft-hearted" Americans don't much care or know about the life of someone in say Bangladesh or Indonesia.<p>So maybe you could also think of changing nationalities. E.g. change Anglo-American names to Bangladeshi or Indonesian ones.
It is interesting and close to some things I have been thinking about (vide <a href="http://p.migdal.pl/2017/09/30/dating-for-nerds-gender-differences.html" rel="nofollow">http://p.migdal.pl/2017/09/30/dating-for-nerds-gender-differ...</a>).<p>Did you try making some interactive version? I think this could be inspiring for a large audience.<p>Did you try using things like word2vec, to find word “analogies”? (They are often biased, like doctor - man + woman is nurse.) Comparing two “translations” could be interesting.
