Real men don't use sex robots.
I don't think they're realistic though.
“Clean-up, booth #6!”Can you imagine being the person with the job of cleaning up the robot sex holes?
I wouldn’t doubt it...some guy making $6.50 an hour shouldn’t be expected to thoroughly clean all those e-sex holes!Are STDs still going to be an issue to worry about with sex robots?
It has been normal before - and what's more, in some of the most enlightened civilizations in history, at large. Whether I think it's right or not, the idea that, as society becomes more permissive and starts to interpret Enlightenment values more loosely, it couldn't become normal again, is wishful thinking.
The sanctity of children, the way we perceive it now, is a relatively recent historical development. There are a lot of factors involved in how it came to be but a large part of it is based on the primacy of reason, an Enlightenment staple, and that humans are divine insofar as they are able to reason. Children are perceived as not able to reason properly yet, but have the potential to do so in the future, so they are viewed in a sort of special light - divine potential that has not been actualized. What you'll note is that this idea stems from notion of A) reason is a sacred faculty, that which is truly special about humans, and B) reason is Divine - sacred in a way that is above other considerations. Consider then what happens to this model if you strip the idea of the divine away, and then strip away the primacy of reason? The human is a base, but clever, animal.
Now, what do we see in our society today? Privileging of other modes of knowing, privileging of personal experience (IE - feelings rather than an objective, reasonable space), an increasing focus on gratification of drives rather than a focus on wills backed by reason... Enlightenment values are being stripped away - and with them, the foundation of the structure in which humans are treated as sacred. The elements that made the human being sacred are being eroded ever faster and a Dionysian turn is taking place in society, but you think that somehow we'll draw a line around children? I'd say that's wishful thinking. Remember this little fellow?
The little boy twerking in front of a crowd to their enthusiastic applause? Here's an article attacking people who were troubled by it:

You really think that, in an age where the character of the sacred it stripped from our moral landscape, you can still effectively cordon of one area and say "Here is something that is absolutely inviolable." Sorry, that may work when humans are divine and sacred, but when we're just clever animals, the reasoned structures that support such sanctification simply don't hold up under scrutiny. History doesn't support your contention, and I don't think the future will either. I'd prefer it were not the case, but I'm afraid this is what is coming down the pipeline - and it is coming fast...
Back in the early 90's there was a XXX video store on Yonge St that had "viewing" booths on the 2nd floor. A buddy of mine worked the afternoon shift there, he had to mop up every night. Needless to say he didn't work there long.I honestly think that legal prostitution would solve a lot of issues.
I'd hate to be the robot maintenance person or "cleaner"...
bringing new meaning to the word "virus"Are STDs still going to be an issue to worry about with sex robots?

No. But it will make it easier to identify.Do we really think this approach is going to cure mental illness?
It's Toronto, minimum wage is $14.I wouldn’t doubt it...some guy making $6.50 an hour shouldn’t be expected to thoroughly clean all those e-sex holes!

Than jizz mop? Name 3.Immigrants will do the work for half of that. It’s just mopping and there are worse jobs out there... way worse...
