It will be some ideal or another when one can choose a form. I do think as our technology increases our free will increases, as we’re typically free / capable to do more than we did before. The extrapolation of that out to the extreme is to be like a deity. In a simulated space one could change form into whatever they desire any moment they desire it. I think if our minds had enough experience of that level of freedom we would calm down about things such as gender and sexuality. Similarly to wealth, when one can create empires and mountains of gold effortlessly it’s difficult to assign boundaries of wealth and poverty. There’s the idea that this is a simulation and we came to the “human experience” because we got tired of limitlessness. This reality with its risks and high stakes is more engaging, more thrilling, dare I say more fun.
