>Interesting. So anyone who uses a sex toy for masturbation suffers from misogynistic (or misandrist?) sexual dysfunction?>I worked in a sex shop for a couple of years when I was a poor student. 80-90% of the customers were women or hetero couples. The section for "men's toys" was a small corner of the shop, and yes, the men who bought them sometimes seemed a bit creepy. I have no idea if they were misogynists or not, but often they were elderly, or disabled, or appeared to have mental health issues. Not all of them, but a good number. I learned very quickly not to judge, because you know what? We're all human beings, and everyone's got the right to have a wank.>So if a man feels the need and has the money (and he'd need a lot of it) to have a sex robot, what's the problem? People can wank in whatever way they see fit, as long as it doesn't violate the rights of others. Banning sex robots won't cause misogynists to magically respect women.>And what any of this has to do with Deborah Orr's leg hair I have no idea, but thanks for the image, Deb.On the robofucker hand, if the only sexbots being produced are rubbery imitations of flesh creatures instead of pic related, count me the fuck out.
