Rant on Robots and Sex

I’ve seen this thing a lot lately online. A lot of women say that they won’t date a man who watches porn, or even that watching porn is cheating. But I would be willing to bet that a large percentage of those women own vibrators.

Now—I’m not saying that I think porn is good. It objectifies people, visualizes the sexual experience, and not to mention the actual origins of the material in terms of the people involved (whether it was something done ethically or, most likely, not).

But at least pornography is OTHER HUMANS fucking.

Is it more unethical to pleasure oneself to other humans or to a robot? I’m honestly not sure. But I think that the obvious answer is that neither one is ideal.

Another gripe I have is the way society treats women with vibrators compared to men with sex dolls. Women with vibrators are like liberated heroes celebrating their sexuality while men with sex dolls are categorized somewhere between serial killers and pedophiles.

I don’t own a sex doll—I bought a “flashlight thing” once and that was a fucking mistake. I’ve never felt more like a psychopath than when I used that plastic piece of shit.

But I don’t get why it’s so normalized with women? Like isn’t a robot dick with no body or human features pretty much the most inhuman way you could get sexual pleasure?

At least with porn you might be fantasizing about the pornstar, imagining that you are with them or something.

But what are you imagining with a vibrator? Are these women Star Trek fans and they are imagining that Data gave them his dick to fuck themselves with while he watches from a safe distance?

I dunno.

Maybe women conceptualize sex in a different way than men.

But to me, the beauty of sex is not as much about the level of physical pleasure but rather the connection and romance that the mind builds around the experience.

After all, they do say that the brain is the biggest sex organ ;)

Call me crazy, but I just feel that actual HUMANITY should be a requirement for experiencing sexual pleasure. Otherwise why not fuck a pig or a goat? But at least a pig or a goat is a mammal. Not a fucking robot. But maybe I’m just old fashioned that way.
