I think that there's opportunity in teledildonics as well.

If it wasn't for it being, well, teledildonics, I'd be interested in pursuing it.

That's precisely why you should. :) Seriously, I and my team and every other #sextech entrepreneur are working to change the public attitude. For the people ahead of the curve - OH MY GOD THE MONEY TO BE MADE :)

I care about public attitude towards sex.

But that's not the reason that I'd be interested in teledildonics.

You hit the nail on the head with your second point - the money to be made.

Just think about how much money the online pornography, and camgirl, sites pull in.

I agree. Why not? It doesn't make you any less respectable or a bad person. You might be surprised as to how much you like it!

It doesn't make me any less respectable or a bad person in my own eyes... but other people's eyes count for a lot.

From an engineering perspective that contraption is cool.

From a practical perspective... what would Steve Jobs say?
