Ethics of sex robots

[Silver]

I find it annoying that the robots will be for sex when they haven't even come up with a decent massaging machine yet.

How old are you that you require that kind of massage care?

I'm happy to rent one... Where the hell do I insert the coins?

Oh dear!....

Until we get over our fear of open sexual relationships

Not all people who don't want open sexual relationships are afraid of them. Some people simply prefer monogamy and its simplicity.

Monogamy has the attribute of simplicity?!?!?

I need to know about this.

...

What about if this robot looked like an underage girl. Would this solve the pedophilia issue? Make it worse? Other?

I would be curious to see people's answers to this. My opinion is it would make it worse. Because it's just another step closer to getting to the "real thing." It just further desensitizes the idea of having sex with a kid.

Paedophilia is not the issue. Unless, y'know, thought-crimes and all that. Pederasty is the issue.

I think we can test this hypothesis and make these 'toys' a reward for priests on their ordination.

Oh that's easy!
The wife speaks, I jump!
anything else I can help you with...

I think it's illogical.

It was even mentioned in Stranger Things.

The kid asks his dad how he makes up with his mom. The father simply states that he apologizes. The kid responds with "Even if she's wrong?' The father says, "She's never wrong."

I honestly believe that kind of dishonest crap needs to die, because there is no such thing as one person in the relationship always being right.

Happy wife, happy life.
no way around it.

Back on topic...

Who doesn't want this in their future?!?



After all, what could possibly go wrong?

Go wrong...go wrong...go wrong....

But why be massaged into relaxation when you can be fucked senseless, anyway?

Doesn't this imply that if you weren't married you'd have an unhappy life by default?

The magic of zeh ring on zeh finga!

I'm sure there will be male sex robots for women, but let's face it... this will be predominantly a male thing.

Um, are you sure? lol
Speaking as a single woman (and I'm not the only single woman out there who doesn't want to be celibate forever), a male sex robot would solve some of my most pressing concerns in a New York minute. Why the assumption that only men want this type of thing?

ETA: And this is more a general question as I see this is the dominant assumption throughout the thread.

And now we're down to the heart of the matter. Yes sex robots will result in the extinction of the species, but not for the reason you'd expect. Its not that men will choose to opt for bots instead of procreating with real women. Its that why would any woman in her right mind choose to pair off with someone who is going to want sex 24/7 and at best will be just guessing what kind of sex she wants and awkwardly trying to execute it when she can have a bot that will never pressure her for sex she doesn't want and will be able provide her with whatever kind of sex she happens to be in the mood for expertly and without complaint or desires of his own. And will come with no baggage, no mommy issues, no bad bathroom habits, no laundry left laying around, no farting or obnoxious body odor. Plus, if we're looking far enough in the future, her bot will do the cooking and cleaning if she so desires and probably be able to fix the car or any other household appliance with ease. And most importantly, her bot will be able to listen without trying to 'fix the problem' anytime she wants and will automatically compliment her on her shoes, purses, hair and home decor choices. Men haven't got a hope in hell in that world.

Um, yeah, when are those male robots going to be invented?
You just described why I've been single for the last decade.
