America’s First ‘Robot Sex Brothel’ Is Bad News for Our Culture
The Daily Signal ^ | September 28, 2018 | Monica Burke

Sex robots are coming to America, and Houston is the first battleground.

The first “robot sex brothel” in America is set to open in Houston, Texas, this November. The mayor is currently investigating how to restrict or regulate it.

The owner plans to expand to 10 locations in the U.S. by 2020.

This disturbing development is sure to have a negative impact on society.

The brand of brothels, KinkSdollS, is owned by Yuval Gavriel. The first location opened in Tokyo in 2017. Clients can test the merchandise and pay by the half-hour to be alone with a doll.

Concerned citizens in Houston are right to point out that sex robots are unsafe, unsanitary, and likely to increase demand for sex trafficking.

Psychologists too have warned that sex robots could increase sex addiction. This is unsurprising given the science of pornography.

Studies suggest that pornography changes the way people think. According to a 2012 survey, “56 percent [of 1500 men] said their tastes in porn had become ‘increasingly extreme or deviant’ the more [internet] porn they watched.” The study also suggests that internet pornography is causing serious sexual dysfunction in men.

Sexual encounters with robots could cause even further problems.

Research shows that porn consumers frequently escalate into more extreme and violent forms of pornography due to the addictive nature of porn consumption. The use of increasingly lifelike sex dolls could potentially reinforce this trend, and these addictions ultimately bleed into broader society.

Congress perceived this danger and this past June, the House passed the Curbing Realistic Exploitative Electronic Pedophilic Robots (CREEPER) Act, a bill to “ban the importation and transportation of sex robots and dolls that look like children.”

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte pointed out one reason why these robots are so horrifying: “Customers can order bespoke dolls, providing pictures of specific children they would like the doll to resemble. They can indicate a preferred facial expression such as sadness or fear.”

This kind of behavior is not just unsettling, it is dangerous. Abusers can simulate violent fantasies on the dolls—bringing them one step closer to abusing real children. The same thing can be said of adult sex robots.

They will only breed the mentality of objectifying women and may contribute to the normalization of sexual violence.

Indeed, the potential effects of sex robots on society could be devastating.

Let them do it, There is a factual primal urge humans have that will NEVER be subdued. Nothing will ever stop it and it will always need to be satisfied in one form or another. I see this as rape prevention. Let them overdose on it and be rid of them.

“I don’t condone immorality but what man would, at this point, ever date a leftist woman much less sleep with one?”

I am married to one. Going on 30 years. We made a deal early on which stated that if you make a political comment, I get to also make a comment. It’s our version of the fairness doctrine.

Her parents once made a comment to me about republicans being Nazis and I retorted “You would vote for Hitler if he had a “D” next to his name.” We didn’t talk for 10 years.

The thought of sloppy seconds, thirds, etc. has no appeal to me. Amazing how all the morality of “this will lead to ….” is mentioned, but teaching fisting in grade school is appropriate.

My basic philosophy is as long as you are hurting anyone or inflicting your views on me (or making me pay for it), I don't have an objection.

But I do agree sanitation will probably need to be regulated, just like they require safe prostitution.

Seriously, the dating scene these days is messed up. A woman can be fat,ugly and have a bad attitude and some dude will still hop in bed with her. But if you're a guy and you're not a macho "Chad" with looks and money good luck with finding a date.

“The mayor is currently investigating how to restrict or regulate it.”

Oh isn’t that so like the garden variety democrat. They are always butting in and want ban, restrict, regulate and tax all human activity.

MGTOW is growing far more rapidly than the PTB think.

THOT's are going to lose control, so of course they'll demean, shame, and try to stop anything destroying their power. Their only real value is being replaced.

I am glad you can make it work.

My deal like that is with food. When we live in the US we buy Chinese most of the time. When we lived in China we ate Western.

They will figure a way to animate them and enable moaning and movement at appropriate times.

“Wait, my wife has been spotted in Houston ?”

“Did I hurt you?”

“No...why do you ask?”

“Because you moved.”

Pushing back at “pussy hats”, are we?

NOBODY could have seen this one coming?”

The feminist effort to de-objectify and empower woman terminates in replacement with ROBOTS! Is this too sad to be funny...or too funny to be sad?
