Robot Sex
British Author David Levy says that we'll be fucking realistic humanoid robots by 2050. These robots will be so lifelike that they will be able to respond to our actions and emotions while we're having sex with them and possibly even marry them.
The advantages are obvious -- STD-free sex on-demand with "someone" who caters to your ever sexual need. We have our doubts, however, whether fucking a machine would be better than a living human.
What do you think?

dudes have been having sex with "machines" for years--just ask anyone who has fucked Paris, Lindsay, or Britney.
hell-you could even ask Kelly Ripa's husband!
EDITORS: OH now you've stepped over the line. Say what you will about Paris, Lindsay or Britney but don't touch our Kelly!! =)
ugh... as if we need more help being emotionless, cold beings.
Sounds like these robots Levy's talking about will have more emotional response then some of the current crop of gay porn stars currently screwing on our telly's...who might as well be robots.
Well, it'll be great sex but it will not fill that hole that humans seem to have that CRAVES for emotion.
But sure, the sex can be perfect. I'd feel so bad... just looking at that face and realizing it isn't real though. *sigh*

I think it could be neat thing to try (like any other sex toy), but it's no substitute for a real relationship.
oh my, the silver metal lover by tanith lee might be cumming true. i can hardly wait, not.
At least they wouldn't have any hangups regarding race, creed or color.
One can replicate, perhaps...Perhaps...fully the physical dimensions of living things. But I have yet to be convinced that machines can be imbued with genuine emotional qualities that comes naturally with organic life.
Hell I'd do it. It's just a more advanced version of the toys we have now. Alot of people would probably disagree - gay or not - due to their non-futurist, conservative beliefs, but the truth is it's just another toy. So for me, yes I'd do it. I'm for the future. It'll be sort of sad though if you get attatched to it, hahaha. Like you don't even need to go out anymore because you have a robot. That could cause some people to lose their social sanity. But meh, it's nothing that would be of concern to the government, so who cares. It's a plausible situation and I have a feeling it will happen.
Does anyone know who drew that picture? If so, please let me know.

It's just a glorified sex toy that will never replace real sex. Sex toys just tide you over until you get the real sex you're craving. Robots could never replace a sexual relationship with a real person, but they sure will be a fine toy.
I will be dead. It doesn't matter any further than that.
At the risk of sounding like a social commentator, the "risks" could be damaging. Not in the physical sense, but in the human psyche.
Despite the conveniences we've been afforded from technological advances, a side effect is that a lot of us are less self sufficient. Check out the problem with kids spending too much time playing video games or surfing the net.
It mightn't be a strong example, but it shows human interaction is a important for people to learn independence. And with this "sex toy", those with little confidence will opt for this as an easy way out. That won't solve their issues because the problem's still there, but it's just been swept under the rug.
Don't get me wrong, this is an exciting concept! But we must make sure we're careful when these steps are made. Social issues require a hands-on approach, and unfortunately some will use this "toy" as a way to avoid this reality.
I always had a weird fantasy about having sex with robots. Too bad I'll be in my 60's and probably losing all my sexual drive. But, what about cum? Cum is one of the things that makes sex great: when you and your partner cum at the same time, it can be quite unique. But, if it's a robot, then it's like it's programmed to pretend to cum when you do, which takes all the fun away.
