Topic: Sexbots. Will you be indulging? - page 11. (Read 5155 times)

It's weird as f*ck, but not inmoral. Some people may see this like scary acts, but they are still machines, not living things.

Seems like an electrocution hazard IMO. 

Lol, never. There is sexual fantasy and reality. Everyone who watches porn at least once would fantasize about something. Now just for the sake of comparing, let's assume that indulging in a sexual activity with ones wife or gf is reality, there is ample room for fantasy here, but still connected to reality.

With sex bots the whole notion of reality is gone, it is just trying out plain or complicated fantasies on a dead, non-breathing object. Too much diversion from reality which would end up in a person becoming highly psychologically unstable. AI sex bots is a possibility in the near future and it wouldn't be a surprise if sex bot brothels start to pop up.

Then there is VR porn. IMO, this industry is going to boom in the next few years. Not same as sex bot in the sense it is fantasy applied virtually rather than on an inanimate object.

Or vice versa, evolution accelerates as anti-social, emotionally damaged snowlakes voluntarily remove themselves from the gene pool by endless masturbation to inanimate objects. Both Darwin and God Almighty will be pleased.

The Darwin Awards are a tongue-in-cheek honor, originating in Usenet newsgroup discussions around 1985. They recognize individuals who have supposedly contributed to human evolution by selecting themselves out of the gene pool via death or sterilization by their own actions.

The project became more formalized with the creation of a website in 1993, and followed up by a series of books starting in 2000, authored by Wendy Northcutt. The criterion for the awards states, "In the spirit of Charles Darwin, the Darwin Awards commemorate individuals who protect our gene pool by making the ultimate sacrifice of their own lives. Darwin Award winners eliminate themselves in an extraordinarily idiotic manner, thereby improving our species' chances of long-term survival."

I think there's no shortage of people out there who are utterly sick of having to deal with the opposite sex but still have the same old urges. The uptake might be shockingly high when viable ones arrive.

Fetishistic disorder is characterized as a condition in which there is a persistent and repetitive use of or dependence on nonliving objects to reach sexual arousal. Only through use of this object or body part can the individual obtain sexual gratification. A diagnosis of fetishistic disorder is only used if there is accompanying personal distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning as a result of the fetish.

Fetishistic disorder is a much more common occurrence in males, and the causes are not clearly known. Fetishism falls under the general category of paraphilic disorders, which refers to intense sexual attraction to any objects or people outside of genital stimulation with consenting adult partners.

The sexual acts of people with fetishistic disorder are characteristically focused exclusively on the fetish object or body part. Non-fetishists may at various times become aroused by a particular body part or an object and make it a part of their sexual interaction with another person, but they do not fixate on it.

Behavioral learning models suggest that a child who is the victim or observer of inappropriate sexual behaviors learns to imitate and is later reinforced for the behavior. Compensation models suggest that these individuals are deprived of normal social sexual contacts and thus seek gratification through less socially acceptable means. In the far more common cases involving males, the patterns suggest that causes stem from doubts about ones own masculinity, potency, and a fear of rejection and humiliation. By his fetishistic practices and the mastery over an inanimate object, the individual may safeguard himself and also compensate for some of his feelings of inadequacy.

I prefer women to sexbots, maybe sexbots can be useful for people who are broken hearted

If it is not a living person, I would prefer to close my eyes and imagine one.

The moral dilemma stared when someone came up with the idea and offered it up to other people. If you want to point a finger at people who lower our moral standards, start at the beginning.

There's something creepy about a not-quite-human thing that you're dealing with.  Once I went to Japan and I spoke to a couple of reception bots (not in ordinary receptions, just in sciency places).  It's real weird talking to them, and dealing with their slightly uncanny movements and speech.

If people had mastered the system I would be happy to try one, but otherwise it's weird as hell.

The perfected ones would probably be way more expensive than I'm willing to spend on fake sex anyway, unless I became a famed crypto multi-gajillionaire.

I think that many people prefer a living person. But there are different situations. And maybe for some people it will be a salvation. But I hate to think about it.

if they can create bots that can mimick human behaviour in bed, then i would like to try that haha
but i still prefer a live human than bots.

Obviously not, because it will inhibit population growth whereas human beings are social beings and humans are creatures in pairs

Hell no. Those sex bots look alot more of creepier than arousing in my opinion. Imagine having sex with an imaginary plastic person with a straight/blank face. It's like having sex with a dead person LOL.

Well, they're not really here yet. The stuff that is around at present isn't much more than an inert object that you can move around a bit. However the day will come when things are a lot more lifelike.

I don't think it would ever be lifelike enough for me but I can imagine young folks going for it in a big way. There's an insanely high proportion of Japanese youngsters who shun sex completely. Perhaps this'll make them warm to the idea. Or it could be a complete dead end.

This is messed up. There is no substitute for real life. I didn't even know there was such a thing as sexbots. The only way they would be acceptable is if your significant other buys one for you.

anyone who uses these is no better than a sodomite

Doesn't interest me personally, but between VR and robots, it should be pretty interesting to see how the sex industry evolves.

They seem expensive. Maybe i'd consider picking one up on the used market.

On second thoughts...

Lots of people seem to moaning with increasing intensity about the rise of sexbots. Some are claiming there'll be moral dilemmas as I assume a proper one will need some type of sentience.

Personally I can't ever see myself going for it. If I'm not imagining some bored Foxconn slave testing out the muff I'm slobbering all over, I'll be trying to catch it out like early text only adventure games by throwing out surreal suggestions.

Are you already saving up or will you stick to donkeys and greased holes in the ground?
