I didn't know where this thread would be most appropriate, so I just settled on "general discussions."

 

How many of you guys and gals can see yourself availing yourselves of this new "toy?"

Well, considering that some people have sex with inanimate objects, it seems quite likely that they'd also have sex with sexbots.

no pregnancy, no STDs (hypothetically), no relationship problems.

 

Meet the prostitute of the new millennium. And why not? I think it's a good idea.

Haven't women already been doing this for years with their vibrators? I guess they're just ahead of the technological curve sexually speaking.

There are male vibrators too. but nothing this.... human.

Oh Hell Yeah! Are you kidding? As long as it's as advertised: "so lifelike, so imbued with human-seeming intelligence and emotions, as to be nearly indistinguishable from real people"

 

I was hoping these would come out before I die...

I think an interesting follow up question would be... would it be immoral to create child-like sexbots to satiate pedophiles? Assuming, of course, that it would discourage them from trying to have sex with real children. Or should we be trying to completely repress these types of tendencies.

I guess I am open to the idea of sexbots, but the idea of child sexbots for peadophiles disturbs me.

 

Maybe it is because I think it would only exacerbate the problem that peadophiles have with their desires......although perhaps not. It is different than virtual pornography in which computer generated images of kids are shown to peds.

I don't think it would be immoral to do so. Particularly, if it turns out to be something that's irreversible - that is, if science doesn't find a "cure" for pedophilia. I figure pedophilic lust is an innate urge, such as my attraction to my wife, and not an "evil" or learned obsession.

 

Perhaps an even creepier spin on the question is, is it not cruel to deny a pedophile access to such devices? Lucky you and lucky me that we have sexual preferences that aren't considered harmful by society and we get to enjoy ourselves freely, without persecution - easy for us to deny the same basic human desire for sexual liberation merely for what it represents, doing no actual harm to no person.

 

Surely there's a science fiction story on this one...

Well, technically it's only a problem if an actual child is involved. What if we allowed Pedophilia to flourish in the medium of robots and fictionally generated imagery? What if this virtually eliminated actual child victims of pedophilia?

Oh great, this one too!

 

I hope the outer part is made of soft material so you can have a place to grab:P:P!
