"Daddy don't touch me ... oh, wait. I'm a robot."

Touching robot privates turns people on
Greg Nichols/ZDNet wrote: It's official: People get turned on when they touch anthropomorphic robots in the equivalent of their genitals.

I'm not being crass ... it's science. That's according to Stanford University researchers, who published a new study on how people react when a mechanical companion asks them to touch its private parts.

Listen , just because I'm (literally) currently a stone's throw from Stanford University (base of the researchers...), that has absolutely No Bearing Whatsoever on my personal take on Human/Robot Interrelations...

ooooh, so any terms and phrases to play around with

- Hardware
- Software
- Firmware
- Backing Up (Yo, Diggidy!)
- Portal
- Interface
- Male Connector/Female Socket

It just goes on & on...

Wish i could find the National Lampoon "NASA Sutra" article, which had some wonderful, very technical-looking engineering-type drawings accompanying it...

Well, looks like we're only a few steps away from robotic prostitutes. But would there be a decreased risk of contracting an STD? I mean, nothing organic, so it'll be easier to clean them properly. The parts would be easily detached, and you could drop them in an autoclave.

Not that I'd bother with the services of a gynoid prostitute. I don't really want to meet the human versions.

(I feel bad even considering signing up on a dating website... It just feels like I'm cheating. "What, you can't meet a woman normally?")
There is no such thing as a science experiment gone wrong.

Japan already has them, you can own one for under $2K, they come 'sanitized for your protection', they can be programmed to 'orgasm' in synch with your actions... that is, they will establish your pattern and time themselves accordingly, they are totally pose able... and incapable of pregnancy, PMS, hiring a divorce attorney or any other multitude of annoying things.
I am not making this up. I was laughing my butt off the whole time I was reading it and did further research only because it was so absurd. One man in Tokyo owns four of them... (for guests?!?)

I'm guessing they can be pretty life-like...
