Maybe some men like the idea, but I bet most of them would soon find the experience less fulfilling than they had hoped.

In these sexual relationships, availability and consent will always be taken for granted, something that’s never taken for granted in a sexual relationship with another human being.

People could get used to interacting in a way in which the other person isn’t taken into account as much, meaning that sexual partners could be instrumentalized for the purpose of having sex. That is to say the ‘human-humanoid’ interaction could be transferred to the relationship between two human beings.

Unfortunately, however, these advances aren’t being accompanied by deep reflections about the consequences that sex with robots can have.

There are plenty of women who don't have intercourse regularly, but they are less likely than their male counterparts to whine about it.

Former sex worker - what’s the appeal?

It’s basically impossible to do full service work without being severely traumatized. I guess I don’t have to pay for sex since I like men - no matter what age sex gender race what the fuck ever there’s a guy within 10 miles that’ll stick their dick in you - but I guess I don’t see the appeal of sex that my partner isn’t enjoying.

It's funny to think that far enough into the future this may be viewed as robophobic.
