I think you would probably be alot nicer to a doll

A doll would be unlikely to festeringly infuriate you about stupid things

this is sounding more appealing by the minute!

who said this was viral marketing?

That one with the long hair is freaking me out. That's why we don't have guns in the UK. He's a dirty mac-user.

I'm on a super-slow connection with limited bandwidth per month, so I can't take the time (or data) to watch the video unfortunately.

However, what's the big deal? I mean, nobody shits on women for using dildos and stuff. In fact, a lot of feminists think that self-reliance coupled with masturbation is more "liberated" than having a relationship.

So these guys use real-dolls. That's their business. Nobody's harmed, and the sex happens between one consenting adult and... well... himself.

I guess the dudes in the video are creepy. Fair enough. But I wouldn't judge a dude for buying a masturbation aid any more than I would judge a woman for buying a vibe.

Fair enough...but I don't know of any women who attempt to form emotional relationships with their devices.

yeah, it's that these guys have "relationships" with the dolls.


shit, i'd fuck one, and so would most guys, i'd venture. But normal people would leave it at masturbation....

There's heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual... and there's autosexual, and maybe dollsexual. Whatever.

I find it perfectly acceptable that some people just don't want or need another person in their life. I'm not saying that's the case with these guys, but y'kna, they're not hurting anyone.

(That said, it really is a bit odd, isn't it?)

Suit #2: No, sir, he says he does this sort of thing for fun.

Extrapolate 20, 30, 40, 50 years or so. Combine this with the Aibo robot-doggies, version 100.x, and some advances in AI. How long do you think it will be until it's difficult to tell the difference between "android sex-doll" and "real human"? And what will you think then? And will you accept the android sex-doll's claim for legal recognition as a person?

Yeah, I've been reading Charles Stross' "Accelerando"...
