If robots were to function as prostitutes, they would have to be able to emulate human sexual intercourse, which is not the same as being an inanimate sex doll.
About that, I think it could be possible within the near future. Current technology is nowhere near that point, currently.
Wouldn't this electrocute people big time? I mean, there are certain places where you shouldn't stick...certain things, and a high-voltage robot is one of them!
Well, with technology a solution can be found.
I had no idea that Robots were sexable....
Well, you wouldn't believe that a man injured himself while humping a park bench and that a dolphin seemingly tried to rape a man.
Well i think the idea is pretty stupid and only guys that can't get a girl would do it..
Your quote simply isn't true. Some people in the world prefer to be single, but still crave some sort of sexual companionship. And in this case, dealing with actual people can largely be a hassle. Robots = no fuss, no DISEASE, and no relationship taking me away from my work! To be perfectly blunt, it's a real step up from your hand, and how many of you intend to stop using THAT? =P
There are also many couples who are curious about involving extra parties, but don't due to risk factors.
There's also a large disabled community which is full of people who are lucky if they so much as get to talk to someone remotely attractive. I guess that falls into your "can't get a girl" category, but are you honestly going to fault a guy for not having a gf if he's obese from medical causes, bound to a wheelchair, and doesn't even have control over his bowels?
BUILD THE MAN A FUCKING ROBOT. Make it look like Angelina Jolie, because everyone deserves some happiness! Awesome sauce. =D
Oh heck yeah! My perfect lover's idea of foreplay is posting on the Armor forum.
LOL You seem to have rather low expectations.
Ah, well there is an actual episode where he gets a Lucy Liu robot xD
that is the exact same episode lol... the video was supposed to show him that human/robot relations are not ok. yet fry didnt care lol.
Yeah it's like a PSA. Here I found that clip: I DATED A ROBOT! from Futurama.
I want to pose a couple more questions though. What do yopu think the moral and social implications of something like robot prostitution might be? Do you think the world would end up like that video? Would it give rise to religious and political protest? Or would it be just like any other technology born of humanity's desire for content stimulation?
What do you think the moral and social implications of something like robot prostitution might be?
Outrage and protest.
Do you think the world would end up like that video?
Sadly, the video is not available in my region.
Would it give rise to religious and political protest?
Yes. I am certain it will give rise to a lot of protest. Especially among morally conservative people and those who against pornography and prostitution.
Or would it be just like any other technology born of humanity's desire for content stimulation?
No spread of disease and no chance of pregnancy, seems like and interesting idea. I'm sure it would be just as popular as the blow-up doll, if not more popular.
