Researchers Predict Robot Prostitutes in Near Future: Sexy or Sick?

This kind of takes "sex doll" to a whole new level. According to "Robots, Men And Sex Tourism," a research paper by Ian Yeoman and Michelle Mars of the Victoria Management School in Wellington, New Zealand, robot prostitution could be a possibility by 2050. They would be made of "bacteria-resistant fiber," of course.

The paper agrees with a 2007 study done by David Levy, a Netherlands student who completed his PhD on human-robot relationships. He claimed that humans would be sleeping with robots -- and marrying them -- by 2050. He speculated that they would be so life-like, humans could actually fall in love with them. So what do you think? We know we have a few decades 'til it comes, but is the idea of sex robots sexy or sick?

    I want to apologize for being condescending toward you to begin with. However, in your scenario the robots haven't taken over the world the PERSON giving them the orders has, they've just been used as the tool to do so. Robots don't have their own intelligence, Artificial Intelligence has not been created YET, and is not likely to be any time soon. A person would have to direct every move the robot armies made, and probably even every move of each individual robot. Sorry just not plausible. I understand someone is working on Organic circuitry, but even that would have to be programmed.
    here's a short list of movies in which robots either actually behave like real robots. (following well thought out programming) or if actually overcoming programming at least don't always turn evil and try to take over.


    Real Steel
    Solo
    Wall-e
    Sleeper
    Heartbeeps
    Short Circuit
    Making Mr. Right
    The Iron Giant
    I Robot (a robot actually helps END the rebellion)
    A.I.
    Batteries not included
    D.A.R.Y.L.
    Cyborg (Jean claude Van Damme)
    Cherry 2000
    Oh and Cherry 200 actually covers the whole "robot sex slave/prostitution thing. Pretty much no sicker than the real thing."

    There was a Man from Racine
    Who invented a Screwin' Machine
    Either Concave or Convex
    It'll Handle Either Sex
    But is a Damn Bitch to Clean …or … Entertain' Itself in Between

    Wish there was an open option, who cares what you do in private (with your privates).

    Might be a option for (registered or recidivistic) Sex Offeners to expend their (perverted?)

    Sex robots won't: get their feelings hurt, fall in love, spread STDs including AIDS, and they won't get pregnant. They'll likely be in good physical shape, be attractive, etc. WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR GUYS??!! LoL

    At least you won't have to worry about pregnancy. Women like to say "oops there was an accident" but in reality 90% of the time they quite intentionally stopped taking birth control to get pregnant against the man's wish. Watch out fellas, women are evil.

    Men should take responsibility with that too.. Theres a little think called condoms? With how unreliable birth control actually is, men shouldn't automatically rely on it. If you don't want kids with a woman then man up yourself and buy some condoms.

    No that's NO excuse... PUH-LEASE... It's not like the man forced the pill down her throat... all she would probably have to say is "I'm not taking them anymore" and he'd start using condoms.. it's totally different however to secretly stop taking them to trick the man into conceiving a child with you... Your comment was one of the most ignorant things I have seen all day... honestly..

    I think the issue here was that Jeremia said that the vast majority of women - 90% - do this to trick men into having kids. Utter bollocks.

    If you read the comment, Jeremiah surmised that in the case of 'accidental' pregnancy claims, 90% of the females involved engaged in disingenuous premeditated action to bring about a desired conclusion. THAT's the issue here.
  • Sally Howard 2012/05/25 12:03:04

    Well I'd be willing to bet that that's also utter bollocks. I'd like to see something to back up those statistics.

    Wise words, Brother. When men do use condoms (which is much more often than reported), the second he's out of the room, the woman with baby rabies will either grab a pin to poke holes in the rubber, or if it's after the fact, they'll try to empty the contents as deep inside of her as possible. Be aware, they will stop at NOTHING. Robot companions, on the other hand -- no drama, no pregnancy (accidental or otherwise), no periods, no nasty STDs, no psychotic episodes, no being cheated on and lied to, no financial rapeage... the list of pros does extend quite far. Sad that relationship dynamics have degenerated so completely as to make this option attractive, though. Just one of the many things feminism has brought to the world.

    These are the two possibilities about you.
    1. You don't believe in a religion because robots taking over the world would contradict any prophesies by any religion's writings. Therefore, you realise the grimness of the world and that there's no point in us even existing except to die later..
    2. You are a person that calls yourself a "christian" but you don't actually fully believe it or else you would have never said that in the comments, that is unless you are somehow looking forward to burning forever in hell :)

    have a good day and take your pick
