I refuse to believe this is a real post.

He'll believe the robot wives when they pay him the compliments he programmed them to give.

Well, he's a eugenicist (and thinks he's got the best genes) so I'm guessing this is part of his plan to make certain populations stop breeding.

I'm looking forward to the anguished screeching when they find out that male sexbots will be a thing too.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Would be an interesting timeline if your hookup line is: "Hey, our sexbots should totally smash."

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

We're just a few pandemics away from that.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago

Sounds like cherry 2000

[–] [email protected] 25 points 4 hours ago

Awesome. As a woman, I cannot wait for the day men will be so occupied with a robot waifu, that we can finally walk safely at night.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

Hopefully I won't have to deal with creepy girls staring then looking at me like I'm the creep.

I really don't understand the dot connection from sexbots existing to women becoming secound class citizens or whatever they think will happen. It's as if they think women only exist for sex and marriage and won't have a purpose without it. And that's not even to go into their assumption that every single person will decide that having a human connection is pointless and can be replaced by a non sentient(god I hope so) sexbot.

It's the same thinking that leads to "AI will replace programmers/artists/writers" but with extra misogyny. People in power don't actually believe this garbage, it's all a marketing gimmick to appeal to losers and incels. Nevertheless, this kind of rhetoric does real societal harm. Same as with musks hyperloop -- hype up a fake idea and grab the cash.

(Assuming such technology could be viable and not, you know, horrifying like it sounds it would be...)

WHY ARE GENERATION ALPHA WOMEN KILLING TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE?!

and

GEN ALPHA WOMEN SAY THEY ARE HAPPILY SINGLE: WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM??!

and

DEATHS FROM LONELINESS AMONG GEN ALPHA MEN ARE WAY UP: WHAT'S GOING ON?!

I feel like it would free a lot of women to focus on their careers and stuff as opposed to being conditioned to find a husband.

Is this how we remove these "alphas" from the gene pool? Hmmm... carry on.

These are automated body pillows. FTFY.

I feel like someone, somewhere, ate the onion.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 hours ago

At this point, I think the universe has eaten the onion.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

This is almost certainly a troll

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago

Yeah this is clearly AI drivel.

[–] [email protected] 86 points 9 hours ago (20 children)

i'm not a woman but something tells me that they wouldn't want to be with a person who even remotely considers the idea of owning a robotic sex-slave.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 7 hours ago (4 children)

... Can it do domestic labor or just sex? I am a woman and frankly I'd be interested in a robot wife.. I've got my husband for sex but we're tired of cooking dinner and cleaning the house. We'd both like a wife.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

No shit! If it can clean catboxes and fold the laundry I'm so down.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

There are robot cat boxes tbf

[–] [email protected] 2 points 46 minutes ago

Those can be lethal for your cats.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

that's called polyamory, and is especially relevant in this economy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 46 minutes ago

Monogamy? In this economy?

I've seen this in Detroit: Become Human.

Nab a crate loading robot from an Amazon warehouse, it can lift more and will have much less pricey maintenance.

Most of those men were never that desirable on a personality level anyway.

They think of women in transactional terms, where they only do what's necessary to get laid.

I think, especially the incel types almost live in an RPG. Women are just NPCs, you do some quests for them, fetch her father's sword from the orc cave, hit the right speech options and if you gathered enough reputation, you get the ethereal pussy of power that gives +5 on mana.

Switching directly to robots does make sense in that world.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

the thing i just cannot wrap my head around with these people is what the hell they're after, they claim they don't like women and yet they're clearly thirsting after them.

best i can guess is that they're just profoundly mentally unhealthy and unable to realize that if they want a partner they should just.. be desirable, which easy to get started with by learning how to cook and being nice to people.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 hours ago

They see women as accessories, like a tie or jacket, and fundamentally less valuable than themselves.

I think this is partly driven by a mixture of misogyny and low self-esteem. A woman on equal footing might threaten their very fragile self worth.

So being a normal person would mean partial submission to a woman (because that's just part of being in a relationship, you're not always on top), but at the same time they feel the societal need for a woman, because only having sex makes them true men.

And it's also the typical self-victimization of fascist Ideologies. Nazis are victims of the Jews, current fascists are victims of immigrants or Muslims, incels are victims of Chad Thundercock.
