Men could be pulling off a “Reverse Gloria Steinem” and show that they need a woman like a fish needs a bicycle.

Then what happens to the power structure of society?

Theres a lot of truth in that. But women share a lot of responsibility for devolving and being devolved as well.

Treating men as credit cards. Getting married and packing on 100 pounds and developing a wicked cheeto habit. Sex out the window. Endless feminist bull. Fighting dad on discipline and ‘Oh it’s too dangerous!” crap. Divorce and taking the kids and half or more because their friends told them they deserve better.

Plenty of blame to go around.

You can’t “have sexual intercourse” with a machine. It’s just complicated, high-tech masturbation.

Blade Rinner. Parasite Dolls. Bubblegum Crisis/AD Police. Lots of sci-fi has sexbots. Thats why they are being created. People that saw that future wanted it enough to create it.

The Tricorder, the Communicator and even transparent aluminium were the direct result of Star Trek.

The Rail gun and lazers.

Humans imagine and then creat what they imagine. For good and bad.

No.
The truth is the women interviewed hate men.
They are upset that now a larger group of men will now never interface with women at all to receive their scorn.

So it comes full circle.

The type of angry bullies who brought this travesty about have to whine in a different way now.

I suspect some of them will be longing for “the patriarchy” when men and women participated in the evils of family to come back.

But it was their own denigrating of males (Patriarchy, that dehumanizion which you are attempting to transpose upon males) which is bringing this about.

Don’t like this post?
I don’t care one whit whether you like it or not.
Read up on how bad the feminist movement is in Japan and get back to the other posters on this forum.

Better yet, read up on it and then trot yourself over to Japan and try to debunk what I am pointing out.

Good luck with that.

So what's the robo-sex equivalent of "the Blus Screen of Death,"

- or a "head crash."

- or a "memory leak?"

Just wonderin'

I totally understand the appeal of these things but they won’t really go ‘viral’ until they can cook, clean, and get a man a beer without bitching at him.

The important thing, is that they won’t ask you to talk to them afterwards.

It’s called surrogacy.

And in the future there will be artificial wombs.

Although it seemed like a good idea at first, it didn't turn out well for this guy.

That’ll help sure. No question. The ONLY thing stopping it oe rather holding it back is cost.

Right now RealDoll, a company that makes lifelike sex dolls, sells them for nearly $10K. Thats with no robotics. And from what I’ve read, they are in no danger of bankruptcy. (They do make and female versions any way you prefer them. ize/Shape/whatever)

A month or so back there was one of these threads and I and a few others dug up several articles where they are already working with robotics guys and AI developers. They have a very rudimentary but working head. It talks/answers you and ...other things.

But cost is going to render it/full models eventually, a toy for the rich until China mass produce the things. And they are working on exactly that to solve their male/female imbalance.

Japan is working hard on companion robots to deal with their aging population concerns. The tech will be adapted as well.

For better or worse, in 20 or 30ish years, maybe less, we are going to be awash in them unless we nuke ourselves first. Even if they arent exactly Cherry 2000 models.

You can order food and cleaning at the touch of a button. And just get a mini fridge (or robot) for beer.

If you’re an attractive (or wealthy) man, you can also get sex at the touch of a button (through tinder and other apps).

The average man can easily buy sex at the touch of a button from a menu of girls (slightly more difficult where prostitution is illegal but still not much just harder than ordering pizza). Legalization of sex-work, sex bots and VR sex will make that all come down in price.

Welcome to the Brave New World...

Women own this phenomenon. Its completely their fault.

Good sex is mostly good fantasy anyway, not real intimacy. So, little is lost with the proper sexbot. They may not be there yet, but it is nothing more than details for sexbots to eliminate about 90% of the bargaining power that women wield.

Only guys who like the chase and refusal ritual will resist a sexbot.

Caller: “My sexbot is abusing me”

911: “How so sir”

Caller: “She refuses to have sex with me”
