If you're browsing here, you're familiar with all the body-swap story mechanisms, and then what's interesting is how people deal with the result.

The future in the mirror is closer than it appears. If, thanks to new technology, you had to become a girl for a year in the middle of high school, what would you do? Start a blog, of course.

Thanks to one of those viruses, Eric's roommate Charlie was re-engineered as a buxom blonde with a highly-optimized libido. Is this a geek's dream come true?
