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.

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.

I feel like someone, somewhere, ate the onion.

I am 100% behind this. If you want to fuck a robot because "western women" are "to blame" then you go right ahead. Take you and your robot back home and don't come out until you can play well with others.

These are automated body pillows. FTFY.

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.

[–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 week ago

Ah yes, Stepford Wives wasn't dystopian at all and was in fact something to strive for.

It's weird that no one is even questioning where the robot husbandos are.

[–] flashgnash@lemm.ee 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This is almost certainly a troll

[–] TammyTobacco@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 week ago

Yeah this is clearly AI drivel.

Misogynists and fascists like disgusting Elon aside, I do believe there is a serious problem on the horizon.

Just existing AI capabilities, "cyberdildonics" and virtual reality headsets. It doesn't have to be a full sized sex robot, simple hardware like the handy already exists.

Imagine combining that with a ChatGPT and video generating AI that is designed to create "engagement" similar to how social media does this - not just with sexual pleasure but also through generated stories creating a pseudo intimacy based on illusion.

It sounds pathetic but algorithms could relatively quickly generate the "ideal" forms of pornography and stimulation to maximize pleasure, including "aural" stimulation and sex stories. And that generated for the tastes and desires of each individual.

So there is at least the possibility of a kind of addiction or at least habit forming from a kind of "ultra porn". Long term this will lead to changes in dating and procreation and socialization, if sexual desires are being able to be fulfilled illusionary and in a fantasy world.

No matter how pathetic you think this is, it's going to be a real problem or at least disruption. Obviously it won't be a feminist "self own".

Buffy the Vampire Slayer. S5E15. I Was Made to Love You. Warren, what a gem of a human being that character was.

Seriously though. We’ll never be obsolete for the same reason we will never have bodily autonomy: reproduction. Until science devises a way for men to reproduce themselves in a lab. And, yes, please, do that, Science. Roe never would’ve fallen had this already been a thing.

2 things:

1, hello fellow Buffy fan! God I love that show

2, don't hate me for not citing, it's late, I'm tired, if I remember I'll find a source tomorrow. But I read semi recently that it may be possible with current tech to use skin cells to make either sperm or egg cells, enabling queer couples to have children that are biologically the offspring of both parents, regardless of the sex make up of the couple. As a gay man myself, that is a very exciting prospect. As a lonely person who's unlikely to ever be in the situation, it's less exciting. But I'm still excited for others!

But yeah, we may well be on our way to a world where it's possible for biological males and females to have children without a partner of the other sex. Which is interesting, but I don't think it'll solve sexism.

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Sexism no. Lack of body autonomy? Probably.

.

Even pre fall of Roe, it’s never been as easy for a woman to get a tubal, not like it is for men to get vasectomies, and not due to the different procedural complexity.

.

Mileage varies, always, but even with kids, a woman is often refused a tubal, pre 35 yrs of age. Especially when single. Future potential husbands get cited. Yes, really. The last person I personally knew who was refused a much wanted tubal was a 26yo mother of 3, and it was 2018. The health insurance wasn’t through a religious institution either. (That can also matter, yes).

.

“You’re not married, and you might decide later to…”

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm familiar with that bullshit. A good friend of mine has a history of really severe medical issues in her family, and tried to get her tubes tied at 30, as she and her husband decided not to have kids, and adopt instead. Her doctor didn't want to let her do it in case they changed their minds. It's none of their fucking business. That's not okay in any way, shape, or form. :/

And if he opted for a vasectomy, high odds on little to no pushback.

Let's be honest, if this was true, the neo-feminists would be pissed. But then again, they are pissed about everything and it's all white mens fault. Regardless of context.

Personally, I think robot companions would be a great idea. Just another reason to not engage with other people off the list.

[–] apotheotic 6 points 1 week ago

In fairness a great majority of things are white men's faults when you dig deep enough.

He has dropped the animal-girl project on behalf of this? Shame to him! 🤣🤣🤣

I remember when people joked about Elon Musk making Catgirls with his "Tesla Model TG"

[–] Omgboom@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago

Sounds like cherry 2000

[–] tilefan@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

when they said West I was thinking of the American West

Is this meme or news? I can't tell.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 2 points 1 week ago

And the birth rate goes down more. Unless they have artificial wombs?
