I think this blogger has a pretty vapid view of transhumanism. Appearance is only one less important facet of technology’s influence on the human experience. Sense and perception of the world as well as augmentation and alteration physical/mental capacities are what I see as changing the way we as a species function. Exceeding current limitations, and at the cost of what?
Whether or not people will act out crazy anthropomorphic fantasies seems hardly as consequential.

All this bullshit about ‘transhumanism’ (and it’s gibbering cousin ’singularity’) merely clouds what actually goes on:

Hype something enough for rubes to buy.
If enough rubes buy, then it becomes mainstream.
When it’s mainstream, gullible yet educated types discuss it as some kind of ‘epoch’ or suchlike.
‘Market forces’ – being as narrow and deliberate they are – capitalise on the bullshit, regurgitate it, sell conformity (because that way it’s easier to keep selling the bullshit).
The conformity, which starts out as a way of selling ideas or junk people don’t need, becomes so all-pervasive that it affects everyone until their idea of ‘normality’ becomes ever more assumed as ‘natural’. So, for example, you see women at the unemployment office with silicon tits (as I did the other day), when 30 years ago that was the kind of ‘consumer identity’ reserved for Californian weirdoes with far too much money to waste.

It’s called ‘ideology’ in the old-fashioned Euro-humanist terms.
