How big of a change could you get away with? ...I mean...if there's a switch with a woman or even ethnicity?

@Suertsje Yes they have done experiments where they change people's ethnicities drastically.

Hypothesis: some folks just don't have all that much going on inside their head, thus they have lots of attention to spend on making eye contact and noticing people's shirts. Poor dopes. Try not to rub their nose in it if you know a person like that. Maybe let them borrow your iPod.
