“…For example, a gender difference in spatial ability has been disputed in recent years [42,72]; this 'disappearing' difference might be attributed to various factors such as more women playing games, implicit stereotypes being challenged or simply due to test measures that differed between research studies. To answer questions like these, more research addressing gender is needed but in ways that do not essentialize gender or the gender binary [188,189].…”

Previous research has investigated gender and its implications for HCI. We consider inclusive design of technology whatever the gender of its users of particular importance. This conceptual review provides an overview of the motivations that have driven research in gender and inclusive HCI design. We review the empirical evidence for the impact of gender in thinking and behavior which underlies HCI research and design. We then present how HCI design might inadvertently embed and perpetuate gender stereotypes. We then present current HCI design approaches to tackle gender stereotypes and to produce gender-inclusive designs. We conclude by discussing possible future directions in this area.

“…Within HCI, researchers have pointed to several axes of oppression in technology design and researchers. Along gender, work has discussed how most health related technology research addresses almost exclusively white cis-male bodies [3] and how gender is reductively encoded and materialised along binary, immutable concepts [119]. Further critique has addressed how disabled bodies are systematically kept out of assistive technology research [76] instead of being attributed unique expertise [105] or just being acknowledged as colleagues [134].…”

In the few decades since the first mainframe computers, computing technologies have grown smaller, and more pervasive, moving onto and even inside human bodies. Even as those bodies have received increased attention by scholars, designers, and technologists, the bodily expectations and understandings articulated by these technological artefacts have not been a focus of inquiry in the field. I conducted a feminist content analysis on select papers in the proceeding of the ACM International Conference on Tangible, Embedded and Embodied Interaction (TEI) since its inception in 2007. My analysis illustrates how artefacts are implicitly oriented on unmarked bodily norms, while technologies designed for nonnormative bodies treat those as deviant and in need of correction. Subsequently, I derive a range of provocations focused on material bodies in embodied interaction which offer a point of reflection and identify potentials for future work in the field. CCS CONCEPTS• Human-centered computing → HCI theory, concepts and models; Interaction design theory, concepts and paradigms; • Social and professional topics → User characteristics.

“…Redesign of menstrual health education has focused on design for children [58] and adolescents [35,57], although individuals were only involved in evaluation and not the design work itself. Menstrual technologies have been critiqued for being gender-normative, and visual and written narratives have showed the violence this causes for trans and non-binary menstrual experiences [21,53]; an example of how technologies can embody harmful essentialised articulations of embodiment and gender [36].…”

“…Our recruitment focused on adolescents who started to menstruate and who did sport. We aimed to recruit broadly to engage a diverse group of participants, representing experiences of menstrual cycles beyond cisgender girls [53]. We reached out to a sport club, a national transgender youth community, a youth sexual and reproductive health community, and a high school.…”
