Microsofts new smart bra stops you from emotionally overeating
2013-12-09 19:23:09| Extremetech
Showing an almost shocking lack of sensitivity for gender stereotyping, Microsoft Research has developed a smart bra that prevents women from emotional and stress eating. Microsoft posits that by reducing emotional and stress eating, the bra wearer's overall health can be improved. The jury is still out on whether stress eating is actually that big of a deal health-wise, mind you -- and also whether it's really an occupational hazard of being female, or whether it's just a delightful case of media stereotyping.
