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

    For starters, jerking off and having sex are not equal. Next you think straight up saying no to a sexual desire is the same as redirection. Last, you don't think the desire to get laid is a driver for guys dating girls which eventually leads to marrying them. There are exceptions, but sexual desire is the first thing to drive most men to date. They my find other value later, but that won't matter if they don't start.

    I agree. My point is that having sex with a robot is more akin to jerking off than having sex with a human. Like I said, fleshlights exist. Sex dolls exist. A sex robot would simply be another iteration.

    Next you think straight up saying no to a sexual desire is the same as redirection.

    I think people should just say no to things they don't want to do.

    Last, you don’t think the desire to get laid is a driver for guys dating girls which eventually leads to marrying them.

    Again, I think putting your dick in a robot is more akin to jerking off. Hence the rate of marriage and divorce not changing. People will continue getting married for dumb reasons. They will just be the same dumb reasons as before.

    Also, btw, I'm a heterosexual man with a high sex drive.

    Your using what sex with s robot would be right now. The post is talking about in ten years. Ten years from now it will be drastically different than a fleshlight or current sex dolls. I would expect it would be able to move on it's own, probably enough to get into different positions. It will also probably be able to respond to commands/requests and maybe even physical movements of the user. And of course, AI can already pretend to be a real person with "some" success. Narrowing that scope from conversation to just sex should enable it to perform even better verbally.

    Again, these improved features might make it a more enjoyable experience - but it still won't be sex. The person who owns the robot will know it. It won't scratch the emotional itch that is wanting to have sex - at least not until the AI gains sentience, and has the right and ability to turn you down and/or tell you you just aren't that great in the sack.

    Most of history is full of men pillaging and raping to get sex. And they were willing to possibly die to get that sex in which the women had no choice. She couldn't turn them down. If she told them they weren't good in the sack, they would beat her, maybe kill her. So I don't think that emotional itch is anywhere near as strong as you think. As always there are exceptions, but history shows those exceptions are a small minority.
