I object to the term “catgirl” for “nonsentient romantic/sex partner”. A catgirl is every bit as sentient as Captain Picard. The word you want is “fembot”.
Well, he did specify that self-modding you some ears and tails is akin to wearing lingerie. Do avoid interpreting a term specifically explained by the author to be intended as non-loaded as a loaded term.
That being said, I’d like to self-mod me a tail at some point.
Indeed, there will be catgirls in the Singularity. Furries are too common a fetish to doubt this. I even think we should coin a term now, “furmod”, for transhumans who alter themselves to appear as anthropomorphic animals. It’s going to happen.

Strongly concur.

Seems like it would be more polite to wait for it to actually happen, and then let the demographic name themselves.
