IMHO There's no good reason for 'feminists' to be upset about robot brothels. If anything, it would re-inforce the divide between fantasy and reality.
The only explanation is that it's competition. It might sate some men, expecially singles, reducing their craving for sex with real women, and therefore it's 'value', and the effort they're willing to expend to obtain it.
- delichon 3y agoIncrementally better pornography is incrementally better at suppressing fertility rates by satisfying sexual hunger with lower odds of producing zygotes. Robot sex is a kind of better pornography. But there are feminist natalists and anti-natalists, and that's only a problem for the former.
- jijijijij 3y agoYou think "feminist natalist" think about men's sexual health like they're cattle? I don't know about you, but I never met a single "feminist", or woman, who was involved with a stranger man's fertility at all.
- delichon 3y agoVery different experience here. The feminists I've known are very concerned about the cumulative effect of our actions on the wider society and not unusually focused on their own narrow point of view. And discussing sexual health neutrally in academic terms, "like they're cattle", is also a feature of medicine and epidemiology, where feminists are well represented.
- jijijijij 3y agoCan you link me something? Like an instance where a feminist, for the feminist cause, wants to police male sexuality and bodily autonomy in regard to fertility preservation? Because, even writing that feels silly. I think sometimes medical and epidemiology opinions are just that, even when they are voiced by a feminist. Lol.
