I really don't understand the dot connection from sexbots existing to women becoming secound class citizens or whatever they think will happen. It's as if they think women only exist for sex and marriage and won't have a purpose without it. And that's not even to go into their assumption that every single person will decide that having a human connection is pointless and can be replaced by a non sentient(god I hope so) sexbot.

I feel like it would free a lot of women to focus on their careers and stuff as opposed to being conditioned to find a husband.

It's the same thinking that leads to "AI will replace programmers/artists/writers" but with extra misogyny. People in power don't actually believe this garbage, it's all a marketing gimmick to appeal to losers and incels. Nevertheless, this kind of rhetoric does real societal harm. Same as with musks hyperloop -- hype up a fake idea and grab the cash.

The scary thing is I think some of them (like Muskrat) do believe it… even though they have no idea how AI even works or how to build a robot like in the pic. They just come up with the idea and then hand off all the actual planning to others, and then strut around like roosters in a barnyard feeling oh-so-smart.

And these rich idiots want this stuff in order to keep all the money for themselves instead of paying an actual human for art/programming/writing (in the case of AI) or so they don’t have to deal with a real human being with their own needs and wants (in the case of a robot ‘wife’). They just don’t want other ‘inferior’ people around them, period.

Which just goes to show what they think of marriage, I suppose.

(Assuming such technology could be viable and not, you know, horrifying like it sounds it would be...)

WHY ARE GENERATION ALPHA WOMEN KILLING TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE?!

and

GEN ALPHA WOMEN SAY THEY ARE HAPPILY SINGLE: WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM??!

and

DEATHS FROM LONELINESS AMONG GEN ALPHA MEN ARE WAY UP: WHAT'S GOING ON?!

So you're suggesting that people - especially those in power - seem to think that women are equals who have individual identities and worth?

I'm not a woman, so I'm probably not qualified to comment; and I'm not intending to attack you personally, only address what you say here; but it does seem like in many cases women get a bum rap.

What is a dot connection?
