The Perception Laboratory at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland created a software called Face Transformer that lets you change the age, race or sex of a face photograph.
Neatorama reader Quito used the software on a famous actress and changed her into a West-Asian, masculine, Afro-Caribbean, and East-Asian (pic to the left) versions. See who it is: Link – Thanks Quito!

I "heart" Natalie Portman.

I also thought it was Natalie Portman because of the eyes. She has very distinct eyes.
She's purty. Ahyuck!

I tried this with my photo, and this is one of the most fascinating and bizarre things I've done on the Internet for..a long time. Highly recommended.

I turned my face into a man, and it made me look exactly like my father!

How very strange.
The West-Asian and Afro-Caribbean settings worked remarkably well with my daughter. Most of the others didn't do so well. Those two were uncanny.

If you submit Clay Aiken as a white woman, you can masculinise him and he makes a pretty goodlooking "man." He also makes a great Afro-Carribean and Asian.
