I see what youre saying, but then again, think of those who are unfortunately disabled, maimed, disfigured, socially inept, etc who have never/may never have a fair shot at a relationship. For them, sex robots/robotic companions could be a fantastic thing given that theyd accept them unconditionally. It could have the ability to fill an emotional and/or physical void for them.

It will make things worse for a lot more people though, just like the likes of 'dating apps' and pornography did. I wouldn't be optimistic about that; the only hope is that we develop a culture to regard it as we now regard smoking, and try to revive normal human contact.

For some, they sure as hell do.
