Robots are great. And rubbish. They’re either set to ‘kill’ or ‘sexy’. The worst thing we’ve found, is when they’re set to both. You lust after a humanoid… and then they destroy the fabric of your society.
We see it time and time again, yet, do we learn? Not even slightly.
That’s because not all robots are bad. Some of them are actually rather likeable. Of course, we mean the completely subservient ones who will do exactly as we say. And in the future, this is a choice we’ll probably have to face. Something Citroen is running at the moment, which gives you the chance to create your own perfect robot date (click here for more), got us thinking – if humans are so rubbish, why not partake in some dating 2.0?
As great as it would be to choose your ideal partner, the options are so wide and vast that you might see your mind going blank.
There’s just too many options!
Look at the plight of these poor sods who, when faced with a mindmelting array of choices for the perfect partner, don’t always manage to make the dream work.
It’s a minefield.

What about the Fembots from Austin Powers? Besides the fact that they would kill you, they’re highly dateable

Re: Rosie –
Why is she just for misogynists? She seemed to get plenty of robotic fulfillment from her duties. There’s nothing inherently woman-hating about finding a mutually satisfying arrangement that includes female-provided housework. Some real, flesh and blood, women prefer that to this very day.
Aside from that, though, I’ve had a crush on KITT since I was a little girl. I’d still take one.

Is having sex with an ultra-realistic robot hooker cheating?
For my own part, yes and no. Do I look at that old robot on ‘Lost In Space’ waving its tentacular arms around and get all hot and bothered? No. Not hardly. Now when I look at the image of a polished chrome and flesh woman as painted by Hajime’ Sorayama, or Jeri Ryan playing the infamous borg, Seven-of-Nine on Star Trek Voyager? You better believe it! Just don’t tell my wife!
