- inactive, on 12/21/2007, -0/+71Your marriage has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
- GOVStooge, on 12/21/2007, -2/+72well, if it's hot.....
- inactive, on 12/21/2007, -2/+65i don't take kindly to all this newfangled technology. I'll stick with my real doll thank you very much.
- bxblox, on 12/21/2007, -0/+432051: the first case of iAids is diagnosed. Followed by apple lawsuit and subsequent release of the identical yet more expensive black version.
- drumkid503, on 12/21/2007, -1/+35hey as long as they don't legalize GAY robot marriage, am I right?
high five? - thatashguy, on 12/21/2007, -0/+33Oh no, the cheaper models will come with STDs..
- morningmatters, on 12/21/2007, -7/+40"Levy predicts Massachusetts will be the first jurisdiction to legalize human-robot marriage. "Massachusetts is more liberal than most other jurisdictions in the United States and has been at the forefront of same-sex marriage," Levy said. "There's also a lot of high-tech research there at places like MIT."
Japan will likely to produce sex-bots first, not the US. Also, while we Bostonians are somewhat open-minded, we are not completely whacked. - pmagayon, on 12/21/2007, -5/+37All you need is some WD-40 and you're all set! And it's also a plus how robots will just lay there, take it, and not bitch about it later.
- dogstar0125, on 12/21/2007, -4/+34You've obviously never been married.
- ordig, on 12/21/2007, -2/+31but that will put hookers out of work.
- lucidguru, on 12/21/2007, -2/+30Pron Stars are already having sex with robots. Hasn't anyone ever heard of the Sybian?
- spyd3rweb, on 12/21/2007, -4/+32A marriage is an agreement and contract between two consenting parties, why does the state need to be involved at all?
- browwiw, on 12/21/2007, -0/+25Only a culture of draconian sexual repression can create subculture sexual outlets like that.
- waterboy1628, on 12/21/2007, -8/+32I'm surprised it's not on the Fox News website.
- FeloniusMonkey, on 12/21/2007, -0/+24In 2050, I'll be across the street ***** my neighbor's robot while he's at work.
- sjbdallas, on 12/21/2007, -4/+28That is kind of ironic isn't it? You can buy a fake girl and have sex with it all you want, but you can't pay a real girl to have sex with you. Hardly seems fair.
- MacEnvy, on 12/21/2007, -5/+27If it's a true AI, who's to say the love is "fake"? How is a complex electrical response different from a complex biochemical response?
- tHePeOPle, on 12/21/2007, -0/+21Wow. That almost made me gag a little. If I was a mechanic, I'd build a robot to fix the sex robots.
- gamer31, on 12/21/2007, -0/+20Hopefully this brings Blank robots and (Kid)nappster to download personalities for the blanks.
- Primatelord, on 12/21/2007, -0/+19Then again, there's the danger of an army of Lucy Liu-bots!
- inactive, on 12/21/2007, -0/+18holy crap, I'm a mechanic, but I can just see a repair shop for this kinda work. WAIT! ewwww
- spyd3rweb, on 12/21/2007, -0/+18What about the Drilldo or *****.
- inactive, on 12/21/2007, -4/+21I see plenty of sex with robots in our future. However, I think it is a long way off before anyone with half a brain allows someone to legally marry an inanimate object. I think not being a living breathing organism would somehow disqualify you for marriage as seen from a traditional definition. The day that this happens is the day that a governing body decides it can no longer say with assurity that an android is not self aware and thus cannot treat it as an unliving entity for fear of affecting another thinking being in a negative way.
- halavais, on 12/21/2007, -1/+18Reproduction requires neither love nor marriage. And you can't reproduce with a robot YET.
- ithejosh, on 12/21/2007, -2/+18"The main benefit of human-robot marriage could be to make people who otherwise could not get married happier, "people who find it hard to form relationships, because they are extremely shy, or have psychological problems, or are just plain ugly or have unpleasant personalities," Levy said. "Of course, such people who completely give up the idea of forming relationships with other people are going to be few and far between, but they will be out there."
So basically the average digger. - YevS, on 12/21/2007, -4/+20I don't think we will get "robots" as such any time soon. Mannequins with a computer inside is more likely.
- sturgeongeneral, on 12/21/2007, -0/+15vote: is MSNBC ***** retarded?
yes. - Chirp08, on 12/21/2007, -4/+19You cant reproduce with a robot, that will be the end of civilization as we know it
- gamer31, on 12/21/2007, -0/+15*hit off switch*
- jerryterhorst, on 12/21/2007, -1/+14'Darling, I have a headache, why not use your robot?'
lol - WestonP, on 12/21/2007, -3/+15Well, you don't really need a computer for it to be realistic... all it needs to do is lay there and do nothing but moan every so often, just like a real woman. I'll still stick to the real ones though...
- MindTrigger, on 12/21/2007, -2/+14I say as we move forward with technology, the line between machines and humans will blur. If you all want to bend your mind around this subject for real, pick up Ray Kurzweil's book "The Singularity is Near". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Singularity_Is_Ne ...
Anyone who jacks off to porn in front of their computer screen is already beginning this journey. Welcome, friends. - camilos007, on 12/21/2007, -2/+14Have we learned nothing from that Futurama episode?
http://www.videosift.com/video/Futurama-Dont-Date- ... - gamer31, on 12/21/2007, -0/+12can't forget Electrogonorrhea: the noisy killer
- JapaneseEconomy, on 12/21/2007, -0/+12Will we have to wait 18 years past the manufacturing date to have sex with it?
I don't want to have hot online chat sessions with a minor robot then drive over to its house only to find cyborg Chris Hansen standing their with a film crew....
Those damn robots always lie about their age. - carltonsmith, on 12/21/2007, -0/+11Not completely whacked. Just mostly whacked.
- Nekiruhs, on 12/21/2007, -2/+13Wow. That was one of the better Your Mom jokes I've seen on the interwebs.
- archer104, on 12/21/2007, -0/+11Paper clip: "I see this is your first time. Would you like some help?"
- vikki77, on 12/21/2007, -4/+15There's hope for diggers yet! ;)
- Ellipsys, on 12/21/2007, -0/+10If I am correct, several years ago the ban on censored genitalia was dropped, but it has become "cultural" to have a little bit of "mystery" now, so the practice continues. Also, there is uncensored Japanese hentai produced these days, much of it for export.
- Valthonis, on 12/21/2007, -0/+10It should be noted that Boston != Massachusetts. There's a whole lot of state that's not Beantown.
- YevS, on 12/21/2007, -4/+14Actually in the sex doll trade Japan is copying the US at the moment with real dolls and all that. Japan is pretty strict on sex. The fact that they are advanced in robotics does not mean they will use robots for sex first.
- IHatePants, on 12/21/2007, -0/+10Gotta love the suction on those Roombas
- mdavis, on 12/21/2007, -0/+9Let's hope they're more Barbarella and less WALL-E.
- inactive, on 12/21/2007, -2/+11I think the general argument is that robots shall have Artificial Intelligence. Don't think of them as machines but another race of living, intelligent and sentient beings made in our image. On this premise, robots shall be able to love back and provide a non-child bearing realationship based on intellectual properties, as opposed to physical.
Not that I'm into banging a fridge that can appreciate it or anything, but I can see the apeal of a disease and child free relationship that lasts as long as you do.
BTW, what stops a bot from getting sick of putting up with your ***** and just moving out? Assuming they are not virtual intelligence, but true Artificial intelligence. Like any bimbo out there. - Xizer, on 12/21/2007, -0/+9Japan's the only country I know of at the moment that requires all pornography, even hentai, to have censored genital areas.
- chakl, on 12/21/2007, -0/+9Wasn't this on futurama?
- Disease, on 12/21/2007, -0/+9It still amazes me that tubgirl's genitals have to be blurred.
