Embidiment and inscription make humans cyborgs

Yes, from my understanding embodiment and inscription make humans cyborgs; as i said in my response paper, the mind works as a computer it saves info and reserves it for the mind to pull up whenever it is needed. Girls are taught to act like girls, and boys are taught to act like boys; as a girl grows older her parents teach her how to act in public and be lady-like the mind registers this information and the mind programs the girl to always act like a girl sit properly, behave properly, and talk properly. The mind teaches the body commends and signals the body to act a certain way, the computer registers information and follows certain commands, and this is why i believe the embodiment/inscription theory help define humans as cyborgs (half human and half computer).
