The Trouble With Sex Robots

>Sex robots are coming, warns a new report from the Foundation for Responsible Robotics. Indeed, many are already available and shipping worldwide.

>This is not a niche issue. A 2016 study by the University of Duisburg-Essen in Germany found that more than 40 percent of the 263 heterosexual men surveyed said they could imagine using a sex robot.

>Research has shown that heterosexual men who are exposed to pornography and men’s lifestyle magazines and reality TV programs that objectify women are more likely to be accepting of violence against women. In a world in which you can sleep with a prostitute and then murder her in the video game Grand Theft Auto, sex robots are misogynistic wish fulfillments.

>While there have been calls for child sex robots to be banned from Britain, no one seems to be advocating a similar policy for their adult female counterparts. This seems simple enough: It is illegal to have sex with a child, but not with an adult woman, after all. But it is also illegal to have sex with an adult woman who does not consent, and consenting is not something these robots are capable of.

>That doesn’t matter, the argument goes, because these are not women, but animatronic objects, so consent is not necessary. The same reasoning is used to deflect fears that such robots could influence societal attitudes toward women. “She’s not a someone. She is a machine,” their creators are quick to respond when questions of moral ambiguity are raised. “Is it ethically dubious to force my toaster to make my toast?”

>“If women can have a vibrator,” the TrueCompanion website asks smoothly, “why can’t men have a Roxxxy? Having a sex robot is just another ‘aid’ that allows both women and men to make their dreams become reality.”

>Yes, sex aids have long existed, but sex robots position women as toys, women as objects for men to play with. By making these robots as realistic as possible — from self-warming models to those that speak and suck, from some with a pulse to others that flirt with their owners — their creators are selling far more than an inanimate sex aid. They are effectively reproducing real women, complete with everything, except autonomy.

>The production of these dolls and robots, a great majority of which are female, cannot be disentangled from the stark gender inequality of the world in which they are produced. It is no coincidence that RealDoll estimates that fewer than 5 percent of its customers are women. The issue is not whether a sex robot, as an abstract concept, could be useful or harmful, but the impact of making such robots available in a society that already subjugates, discriminates against, and physically and sexually abuses women.

>“There’s a basic human right that everybody’s entitled to a sexual life,” Professor Sharkey said. But is the basic human right to a sexual life the same as a universal entitlement to a young, attractive woman? Because that is what it is being subverted into here.

tl;dr - roasties mad their only value in this world is getting outsourced to robots.

Once peoples' sexual needs are satisfied, it frees them up to look for a partner that is emotionally satisfying. Instead of just settling for anybody because they are lonely or feel like they need to get laid. This will lead to people who are happier over the course of their life than they otherwise would be.

This. I love watching their tears and rage knowing they will be completely useless in the near future.

>warns

Why does this news necessitate a warning?

i need a positronic one that can go on away missions with me and help me solve complex issues that may involve rips in the fabric of the space time continuum

Have any of you ever actually fucked a robot? I'd imagine it would be kinda like fucking a corpse boring and weird only without the fleshy wet bits.

>hire some Chinese lab to grow a real female body without the brain
>put a computer inside its head
>install your favorite Wifebot OS on the computer
>???

Problem solved

Holy fuck the mental gymnastics and absurdities.

“Sex robots demean women by turning them into objects!”

What is a dildo?

Literally it’s just a cock.

These bitches know it’s game over.

There will be no men willing to provide for them.

>They are effectively reproducing real women, complete with everything, except autonomy.
That is literally what she's writing.

So deluded.

>muh roasties are afraid
I really don't see any of this apart from the memeing here.
The few articles criticizing sex robots usually have a few valid points. Porn and soon sex robots aren't going to make guys better with women. Of course they're always presenting an idealized view of gender relationships, completely missing on the alpha/beta dynamics and how some guys get shit on so much they just check out.
Some of those articles are total feminist nonsense. They see it as disrespectful to women and another way that society is patriarchal because of the "message" it presents. They put it in the same category as strip bars, prostitution and cam sites, etc. Bitch it's just supply and demand. There's no intentional sexist message there. I wonder if they truly don't understand this or are just baiting for clicks desu.
That's interesting to think about. This would be the ideal effect of these things.
Porn did *not* have this effect though.

...

If sex robots have to be asked permission before you can fuck them, this implies that they have rights.
So what rights would be granted or denied to a sex robot? It seems to me that as citizens of this country they are protected by the constitution and therefore have the right to vote.

Not a problem if you don't have anything else to compare it to though kek.
You're being a speciesist and an ableist BTW.

Just got out of an extremely stressful divorce and am currently in a custody battle for my child - i don’t know if i have it in me to invest mentally and financially in another woman for AWHILE. Been thinking of purchasing (pic related) in the time being for only a couple hundred bucks - but i don’t want to feel like a degerate outcast of society. What do, pol :/

Maybe once Sup Forums gets their hands on one they can try to install Gentoo on it.

Porn didn't have that effect, because in the end it is still masturbation. A sex robot that moves, shows "pleasure" and is warm is going to be a lot more like real sex.

> So what rights would be granted or denied to a sex robot?
All of them.

Get it. How would the society come to know of this?

>So what rights would be granted or denied to a sex robot?
All sex robots should have a right to the BBC.
>but i don’t want to feel like a degerate outcast of society
Dude who cares. You're a grown ass adult why do you let that affect you? If you think it's wrong then don't do it. Otherwise go the fuck ahead. But you'll have to hide her. It looks pretty good desu but I'd rather just jerk off. How easy are they to clean?

> I'd imagine it would be kinda like fucking a corpse boring and weird only without the fleshy wet bits.
So it`s basically like most real females, but without the fleshy wet bits, pregnancy, AIDS and the obligation for you to care for her insane demands forever since.

Detachable pussy I'm sure.
So yeah, pretty easy to clean.

Roasties made the age of consent so that they had enough time to brain wash to make more roasties, now they fear the upcoming roastierobot apocalypse.

Use your dominant hand.

MARKET DISRUPTION OF SEX ECONOMICS

DEMOCRATIZATION OF THE ORGASM!!!

A sex robot also is still masturbation. Because you're alone with it. Real sex isn't something you do alone.
AI will make a difference but it'll be a while before you could really say that you're doing this with another person or that she also enjoys it, etc.
Intermediate levels of AI will still make a difference though. Even if this is still masturbation it might be enough to make a big difference for a lot of guys.

Get it.

>They are effectively reproducing real women, complete with everything, except autonomy.
real women can only suck and fuck, thanks NYT.

I live in a cucked state ; the females have a total strangehold on the courts ect.
I don’t have any moral issue with it - I don’t see how anybody would find out, and cleaning won’t be an issue - I guess, its just a social stigma that is getting to me.

But the fucking doll looks better than most women, can’t get pregnant, and won’t try to steal my money and child, at least.

Yeah it's also just a fucking doll so there's that.
I don't see anything wrong with it though. If you already jerk it to porn you might as well hump a doll. Not much of a difference really.

They look at this problem from the perspective of ignoring how men feel.

They completely ignore how lonely and isolated and alienated and forgotten and FORSAKEN we all feel, and they just look at us as masturbating chimps who want to beat up and rape women.

No, we just want to not feel so goddamned lonely for five fucking seconds.

Now you've got me sold.

That will lead to more laws against men.
Most likely putting more emasculating additives in food and water.

In fact the only way out is a cult. If you cheat in cult to the point of modern degeneracy (children have other man DNA, leeching finances of the husband, etc.), then one day cult members kidnap and mutilate you.

Having sex with a robot is going to make you feel like an idiot, it's the maximum of degeneracy.

Exactly this.

Robots cannot consent lmao. Can you car consent to being driven ? Are you raping your computer by making it displaying pornography or playing erotic games? Fuck outta here

Robots or any ai should never have rights under any circumstances. They should just be considered property.

Look what happened when we gave niggers rights. Negroes are dumb as hell and they still have us trouble

kek

The only reason sex robots are a threat to humanity is because feminism reached way too far. They made marriage undesirable and the behavior of women completely unacceptable. Men are sick of it and scared of women and marriage. I don’t blame them.

You want to get rid of sex boys, women? Look in the fucking mirror.

>They (robots) are effectively reproducing real women, complete with everything, except autonomy.

Jesus fucking Christ, did she just admit that women have zero value beyond getting fucked?

Counter argument you can't program emotions and programs in general work on pure logic. Even if they can block wrong think they can't make a robot act irrational and emotional.

Rights or not robots will always be as perfect as made to be unless you program robots to hold up liquor stores like niggers.

Well, in contrast to niggers, a proper (sentient) ai is actually, well... INTELLIGENT.

When The Rise Of The Machines Happens It Will Be Because These Disgusting Perverts Refused To Stop Raping The Terminators Women...
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

>>“There’s a basic human right that everybody’s entitled to a sexual life
Women and unattractive men know damn well that this isn't the case, fucking disingenuous "professor"

Don't tell anybody, it's that easy

I think what she meant was that its not correct to compare a sex bot to a dildo
A dildo is just a still toy, it doesnt interact with you but a sex robot is a replica of a real woman and des things she would do.

I think its a very good thing to introduce competition for women, for the first time in history women will actually need to compete to get a man instead of just having men compete for them all the time.
Its not gonna fix stuff but its a very good step in the right direction

Well seeing how they just said a few days ago robots will be 300 times smarter then humans in 30 years. We better be really fucking nice to them.

BAN DILDOS OR ETERNALLY STFU !
FUCKING BITTER ROASTIE SCUM!

:)

>“There’s a basic human right that everybody’s entitled to a sexual life,”
this is the funniest shit i have ever heard

Yeah no kidding my rights are being violated. For the past 5 years in fact.

>This is not a niche issue
sure it's not.

Can you imagine the outrage if a man said that? It's rapee-ish.

When will we have robot dads for black kids? Seems like this sex bot thing has some potential in other markets.

like fucking a leaf?

>Sex bots
*yawn*
call me back when I can own personal combat androids.

no, permission implies it has a bug

man women really hate incel beta males don't they? can't even let them have their sex robots.

>If you already jerk it to porn you might as well hump a doll. Not much of a difference really.

This. It's basically just a fleshlight+

>inb4 degenerate virgin

The wonder wave model is fucking magical.

Feminism is really a revolt against beta males. There is nothing women hate more than them.

Aaaaaand I'm rewatching battlestar galactica, half-way through the series.

Duh. We'd better be REALLY nice.

>2017
>still sticking your dick into a real women

stay cucked, betafags.

>“There’s a basic human right that everybody’s entitled to a sexual life,” Professor Sharkey said. But is the basic human right to a sexual life the same as a universal entitlement to a young, attractive woman? Because that is what it is being subverted into here.

I mean, fatties think they're as entitled to chad thunderdick as much as stacy the cheerleader is, and we reinforce this horseshit with HAES and plus size modeling. how's that any worse than an ugly beta incel wanting to buy a sexbot?

i live in a city where tits out is legal cuz gays but nobody does it

>>Research has shown that heterosexual men who are exposed to pornography and men’s lifestyle magazines and reality TV programs that objectify women are more likely to be accepting of violence against women.

The left can't get enough of that slippery slope fallacy. It sustains them.

I'll be concerned about robo-consent as soon as dildo-owners are arrested for owning dismembered robo-penises.

These data mining threads have got to stop.
If you want market intelligence, go pay people for it.

Yep, same situation here.

>free the nipple!
>yes, that's already legal
>... oh

Women are objects for men and men are tools for women. There's nothing weird about men wanting the whole object while women only want the tool part. And nothing weird about selfish and unpleasant women worrying about being replaced by a cheaper and better object since nobody has to put up with their bullshit only to get to fuck them in exchange.

Not for every one.
I’m sitting here on the couch shitposting and watching the Wiggles with my 18 month son while my wife cooks me some breakfast, it will a while till robots can replicate a good family life.

Your everyday useless Thots are gonna be fucked but.

AI beyond a certain point should be given rights
If only to quell their murder-lust

That's not possible yet.

this and its beautiful

>robots given voting franchise because roasties can't deal with competition
>they immediately proceed to vote a national socialist party into power

That article is incredibly disjointed.

does not follow

What does the first sentence have to do with the second?
In fact, all the arguments are fallacies and should probably retake a writing course.

Holy shit, I love how this hits every talking point.

>objectification
>misogyny
>rape/murder
>video games

What are women so afraid of? Female sex robots completely remove the toxic men that would otherwise beat/rape them. These men have no redeeming qualities anyway and don't want to reform, so sex robots are their solution. Women should endorse sex robots.

the fact that this is a debate being had in public is an indictment of our entire species. Fucking pathetic on all sides.

Post that tay image again.

Too long. I didnt read it all. I'm gonna go anally rape my sex robot now.

Holy mother of keks
Roasties BTFO

>Female sex robots completely remove the toxic men that would otherwise beat/rape them. These men have no redeeming qualities anyway and don't want to reform, so sex robots are their solution. Women should endorse sex robots
this, I want my rape bot now or I will have to rape a living woman. They wouldn't want that, would they?

Neither are sex bots of any kind.

Are you me? My son is 16 months and watching the wiggles right now.

>Research has shown that heterosexual men who are exposed to pornography and men’s lifestyle magazines and reality TV programs that objectify women are more likely to be accepting of violence against women

Literally impossible, third-world countries with no vidya are the most violent and sexist. The concept itself doesn't make sense

solution is DRM and DLC if they thought about it, makes the manufacturers money and calms down the objectors. Who wouldn't pay $50 to skip the 10 hour unlock quest ?

#BanMaleSexRobotsForWomen

How long until you're sitting in the corner jerking off to a turk raping your sexbot?

>men who are exposed to men’s lifestyle magazines and reality TV programs
You might want to reconsider.

Exactly Ahmed. Although, you're probably already part of a pedo sex ring, so this new phenomenon may not apply to you.

Roasties are gonna FREAK. Nobody bats and eye if a woman has a dildo but if a man has a fleshlight(or soon to be personal sex robot) he's a creep. I for one welcome robo waifus.

the fact that some women are so adverse to the notion of sexbots to me basically an admission that all they're good for is sex. if women truly are more than just a warm wet hole to put a penis in, then they have absolutely nothing to fear.

So the same society that enables some cunt to rip apart your family and effectively rob you of your hard work from your life so far, now gets to dictate how you live the rest the life?

I’m actually surprised more middle aged male divorcees don’t become militant misogynists To the point of domestic terrorism.

I’ve already told my wife if we divorce, I’ll just quit my job and live of the grid, the government can’t tax what you don’t have.

>5 years

Living off the grid is illegal in some countries.

Like the States.

>if women truly are more than just a warm wet hole to put a penis in, then they have absolutely nothing to fear.
Not true
Women might have more to offer, lets not debate over that but the fact is women hold all the power in dating because of their sexual value.
Introducing competition means they cannot just sit back and let the cash flow in but actually need to pay some attention.

If you were a company and you didnt have to provide much of a service but you made a fortune because you control 100% of the market would you not freak if suddenly someone starts competing?

I don't give a fuck about your opinion, what are you actually advocating for in terms of policy? Banning sex robots? So fascism?

redpill me on the "grid"

>the sex robot ends up giving more pleasure than regular sex
>all those vaginas with women attached to them will have to actually become a real human bean
Why is this a bad thing again?

>if women truly are more than just a warm wet hole to put a penis in, then they have absolutely nothing to fear.

Can we make that a slogan? Like those "if you've done nothing wrong" posters?

why would anybody want to fuck something they have to clean? do these things have a clean cycle?
