    May the incels will get laid and move on. Maybe the guy who gets rejected will go home and fuck his bot instead of stalking the girl who rejected him.

    Doubtful - these actions are driven by emotions, not the need to get off. If it were the latter, they could just jerk off at home today and they wouldnt do these things.

    They can say, just fuck the bot in the ass.

    They can currently just say “no”… I’m not sure why we need sex bots to save us from being bad at communicating.

    Marriage rates will probably decline, and so will total divorces after a while

    Again, doubt. If you are getting married for the sake of having sex, then you are probably in some kind of restrictive religion. And these religions will probably tell you that fucking a bot is an abomination. If you aren’t, then you’ll marry for the same reasons people marry today, and marriage and divorce will stay at about the same rate.

      You don’t seem to understand the role sexual desire plays in the decisions people make. And I am going to assume you aren’t male. Cause jerking off is simply not the same as sex.

        I’m confused why you think that, and don’t think you understand the point I was making. Would you please elaborate?

      these actions are driven by emotions, not the need to get off. If it were the latter, they could just jerk off at home today and they wouldnt do these things.

      You can’t separate the two. It doesnt work like that. The need to get off is intertwined with multiple emotions. Plus if the bot could talk back to you it would change the equation as you can’t go home and talk to your dick and have an actual conversation. This anthropomorphic quality would change the outcome of the thought pattern.

      They can currently just say no

      Thats just “what were you wearing” dressed up different. Saying no can be hard, especially for teenagers who want to fit in. It can become easier when there is a clear and painless alternative to suggest.

      Again, doubt. If you are getting married for the sake of having sex, then you are probably in some kind of restrictive religion.

      A lot of people are getting marries for the wrong reasons, divorce rates are extremely high. This probably would stop at least a noticeable percentage of people from getting married with hormones blazing.

      All of this is just speculation, but I dont think the results of unleashing sex bots are as clear cut as you suggest.

      Why do people do this, just pull apart someone’s comment, dismiss and disregard everything they say. No questions. Just, bam bam bam, you’re wrong on all counts, because my opinion thinks you are wrong and my opinion is somehow more valid than yours. Do you talk to people like this irl. Wtf.

        Do you talk to people like this irl.

        Do you not? Someone says something that sounds likely false. So I say “I don’t think that is true”. And then we can discuss whether or not it is likely true.
