Do you have a male or female brain? Optical illusions

Some more optical illusions. I usually have a hard time with them because my eyes rapidly alternate between the two options.
Warning for anyone who has photosensitive epilepsy, but they probably already know this.

1. I saw it approaching for a split second, then I saw it as ambiguous.

After I saw it as ambiguous, I don't seem to be able to see it as approaching or running away.

Odd. I guess I have an alien brain.

2. Same for me.

My first impression was that the figure was approaching, then quickly thought it might be leaving.

Looked for clues which would help clarify it, but ultimately concluded there wasn't enough information to do so. Unless I missed something, but I didn't want to spend more time on it since it's not like some great mystery of how our universe works.

3. Exactly the same. First approaching then realized it looked like both at once.

We have a gender neutral brain.

I like that.

4. Maybe, but I'd be more interested in the people...

... who would strongly argue it's one way or another, but without valid points.

I might wonder if they're more prone to superstitious thinking, or perhaps they're unwilling to accept uncertainty.

5. Anyone who argues it is one way or another is probably a right winger since

Who else would believe something without evidence?

I find optical illusions interesting. The whole field of sensory perception is interesting but it is confusing for the brain. Guess that’s the whole point.

9. I like the idea of a "gender neutral" brain.

I am male, hetero, but not macho at all. I see nothing wrong with exploring my feminine side.

10. I'm a girlie girl. But don't care what anyone else's identity.

Most people are interesting. That would be my main care.

6. First thought was 'The Six Million Dollar Man'

8. I am not ashamed to say I watched that (and the bionic woman) in my youth but

I have to admit a lot of the scripts back then left much to be desired.

The possibilities of science (just like Star Trek) really pulled me in.
