    It's pretty stupid. Using her logic, one could make the argument that a sex toy that's shaped like a penis is "degrading" to men.

    Welllllll, many sex toys for men are shaped like some porn star's genitals and even those that aren't have feminine names. Yup, a floating vagina on a metal plate named like a human woman. I mean, I found it a little creepy and disturbing but that's just me. I have seen the same for female sex toys but it's not as common on the sites I know of.

    So sex toys modeled after female genitalia are more humanized, whereas ones modeled after male genitalia are more generic.

    I'm absolutely not inclined to argue that either is degrading. I think that's a very silly premise, needlessly shaming people for having a sex drive. But if someone were to argue sex toys aimed at men are more degrading to women, I would take issue with this reasoning.
    The reports of my death were surprisingly well-sourced and accurate.

    When I actually stop to think about I found it actually creepy that an object whose purpose is to be used to satisfy sexual needs had to be named like a person. Be it male or female genitalia, I don't like it and I personally feel no need to humanize my sex toys. I'm not shaming anybody for having a sex drive, and having a sex drive doesn't require that an object has to be humanized either.

    Like I said I find this phenomenon creepy and, yes kinda degrading, no matter the sex represented.

    I'm just reporting my personal experience. It doesn't really mean anything and I don't think any research exists about this topic. I've seen more high-end sex toys aimed at men that name their toys after pornstars or even shape them after them, or generally use common female names for hyper-realistic toys than I've seen high-end brands do the same with toys aimed at women. Maybe I just don't know enough brands but the ones I'm familiar with use very generic names or have a very minimalist design with people names, mostly female names though. /shrug

    Looks like they're less sex dolls and more rape-practice dolls.

    Most of the ones "named" after porn stars are actually molded from them. They elect to do this and are paid royalties for the service. Sure, there are some with less specific names or even generic names but the reality is that it doesn't matter. No matter the shape, size, design or features, they're just tools for masturbation. Whether or not they're "humanized" isn't actually relevant to anything.

    You know I see no reason for such a grandiose expense, period, but... I would imagine the point of having a sex doll would be to have sex with it whenever the person wants.

    It'd be like a guy offering to sell a video game but, because of his own pretentious feelings about it (the guy making these sounds like a guy way too up his own ass about making glorified fleshlights) would make it so you could only play the game when it wanted to be played.

    Exactly what I was thinking. Bad enough they get turned down in real life, now even their expensive sex doll is doing it? That's a suicide waiting to happen.

    It's not a human thus no protections as such, so it doesn't get a choice in the matter one way or another.

    Even then, no laws protect it, so unfortunately as some have already pointed out, NO isn't going to be an option for the A.I

    Real life isn't sci-fi fantasy. No matter how complex the algorithms you put in a toaster, it's still just a toaster.

    Some of you skeptics, imagine 30 years ago that you'd tell people "in the future people will sit for hours in front of computer screens looking for the perfect video to jerk off to instead of trying to find a partner.", they'd all have bine naaah nooo only total losers would do that but hey here we are.

    Sex robots will come down (giggidy) in price as more and more competition arises, and as more men and women decide they've had enough of dealing with the opposite sex's bullshit just to get some sexual satisfaction (especially from the men's side, you ask a man to have sex you get yes or no, you ask a woman to have sex and you're not brad pitt you get rape whistle at the least).

    No condom, no drama, no diseases, one time fee unless you break it, and as AI and materials improve so will the realism of these things, they've already have heated ones which can move by themselves, will be funny when one of them accidentally bites a guy's dick off but yeah whatever lol.

    On top of that, pedophiles, kinky people and every other group which doesn't get off on normal sex will drive this market higher and stronger, once they start doing shit like fantasy character dolls, animal dolls, whatever.

    Be as hypocritical and self-righteous as you want, but if I put a doll that's almost as real as some super hot south Korean chick in front of you and tell you "have a go if you want", you'll have your pants down the moment I leave the room. Enjoy the future, don't fight your nature, when in doubt, fuck.

    As for these "no means no" dolls, what happens if you fuck them, is that considered as robot rape? Oh the social implications, the future is going to be hilariously ridiculous.
    But have fun cleaning it after?....uuugh..

    Heh, the video made me chuckle, esp that the bot managed to use another bot (alexa) to put music on.

    I think it'll be a very long time before sex bots will be realistic enough to be actually engaging and arousing.
    Most likely not within my lifetime.
