What a stupid question. Do you think people use sex toys as a replacement for emotional intimacy and shared life experiences or is this a self-tell that you think relationships are nothing more than sex?
Are you going to force people who own bots to use them for emotional intimacy and shared life experiences, or does your crystal ball tell you this will happen?
I mean that seems hugely implied by the pictures in the above post no?
Edit: oh you said forced. No? But I don't see how that's relevant. Why would you ask "Do you have sex toys?" In response to that comment?
I think the point was "I don't assume you are in love with your dildo, and so you shouldn't assume consumers of sex robots are, or desire to be, in love with their sex robots."
The picture in OP isn't really a counterargument, as it's arguably an appeal to one specific slice of the nascent sex-robot customer base.
I have to admit, while sex-robot is not a thing on my want list, if it were I'd tend to see it as a super fancy sex toy, not as a companion. (Though again I recognize that for some it probably would be.)
