The first paragraph of our section was Haraway’s introduction to her stance on how we can modify our classifications to better fit everyday society. It is followed with explanations of how woman and cyborgs share many similarities in general, and that the existence of cyborgs should not have a grey line drawn between them and society. The section also addresses how cyborgs have little to any creation of religious or family concepts. However, the concept of these machines are becoming more complex and human-like in several ways, making them very compatible to human society. Haraway’s idea of having double-vision toward these machines became a major topic in our section as well. Having double-vision simply means to be open to the viewing of the cyborg’s existence, instead of just seeing them as all good or all bad.
