Forget cyborgs. I’m looking to get hooked on an Onira-Tech Reverie.

well its finally come to this....not only has our society backed off from human contact with the massive use of social media, cell phones, etc....

now sex, the most intimate of human contact, will be abandoned for a machine...

I'm sure many will love this...no more of having to charm a conquest, having to dress up and have a nice dinner and cocktail...

brave new world...

and they can have it...

I'm retreating.

>>Meanwhile, the market for talking and moving robots made for sexual pleasure is on the rise, with makers from across the world selling them for thousands of pounds.

It’s not a flying car, but I guess this is progress. ;-)

Lars and the Real Girl (2007) covers this topic if one wants to delve into it.

How many pounds before the warranty is void?

Check out Match.com. It’s full of women in their very late 30’s looking for their “soulmate” that want to have kids. Of course the spent the last 20 years being sluts and only concerned with their careers. And now they want an instant sperm donor soulmate. No wonder dudes are banging robots.

I keep reading that robots and AI will destroy jobs so, at least they will give folks something to do with their spare time...

This is a natural extension of the MGTOW movement that is a reaction to modern feminism:

1. Feminism teaches women to hate men.
2. Men react by finding an alternative to women.
3. One can get a human or a robot to cook, clean, etc. if one has the money.
4. One can get a human or a robot to feed the sexual urge if one has the money.

Nothing new here, honestly. Remember when Clinton was dallying with Monica, the Left was telling us how prudish we were to expect Bill not to have his mistresses like the leaders of Europe.

Question: Is the explosion of inanimate but very life-like “sex dolls” a “gateway drug” to sex with robots? I don’t know but, for now, genuine “sex robots” (ones with AI who speak and perform tasks) are out of the price range of most men so I doubt the impact is all that great. You have to pony up a minimum of $10,000 for the full-blown robot. Not a lot who can afford that.

But, then again, how much money and reputation could Trump have saved if he had just got horny with a nameless robot instead of a porn star a dozen years ago?

Men. I love you, but seriously? If you really prefer a latex fake chick to a fun companion, I’m seriously disappointed in your whole gender.

This is a difficult issue to discuss.

Let’s face it, there are men out there, who are eager for sexual gratification, with no strings attached.

Why is prostitution so prevalent, in all cultures, and all throughout history? I think it’s largely because men seek it out.

A sex robot is just an extension of the concept of prostitution, in my opinion. It’s a way of having sexual gratification with no connection to, or any commitment to, another human being.
