The extension can be easily toggled on and off, giving you the power to switch between regular views and the genderswapped perspective at will.

User reviews

This is working great and really does open your eyes and make you think about your, and the article writers, perceptions. To the developers: Can you add the ability to swap races, religions, and political ideologies?

I'd love for this app to be able to let me add a contribution/suggestion to be reviewed. For example, I'm reading a text that uses "fraternal" a lot, and it doesn't convert that to sororal, nor does it let me send the suggestion to the developer. There's a lot of hive contribution that could clean this app up that it's missing because of this. That being said, it's a delight to read older texts with this app on.

It still has a few bugs to iron out. The female dwarf in a story I was reading was still referred to as having a beard, and in two other stories I read, the "huntsmen" did not change to "huntswomen".
