Would you love a robot or clone?

I think that robot would be great for Mensch Maschine.

At the risk of sounding extremely narcissistic here; I'd love a female clone of myself. I know I do have lots & lots of faults but overall I think I'm a great person despite my negative qualities. A lot of my qualities that others think are bad, I consider to be good things. I believe I have some of the problems I have because I'm an outsider who is unable to connect with others because no one understands me or is on the same level as me. It sux that I'm going to spend the rest of my life alone because I am incapable of being understood & accepted & given a chance by anyone because others see me as a freak

I think I might could get into robosexuality but I will NEVER trust a Vasectomy Bot

As a woman, I sure as hell would. I am almost at my limit with being hurt by men that I have loved.

This robot or clone would look like 'Spencer' (Matthew Gray Gubler) on Criminal Minds. He would have Spencers mind and intelligence (and before any of you laugh at my choice, he was a high fashion model before he started acting ).....and he would have the voice of Pete Loeffler from Chevelle. With the ability to write songs just like Pete: in very abstract ways, while using heavy metaphors. And he would cook, and be great in uhmmm, certain other areas of the house as well. And I may be a girl, but my geekiness tells me a robot never says no...lol!

Futurama said it best: DON'T DATE ROBOTS!

A robot lover would just be crossing into the uncanny valley.
Humans have strengths and weaknesses, flesh and blood. Give me a human lover instead.

That's because humans would practically go extinct.

honestly I dont think it would be all that different from dating a fellow aspie

I've often thought about this too.

My feeling would be that because this robot wasn't real it would become a toy for me. I would try to love it, but presumably I wouldn't be able to, resulting in me constantly kissing it which would probrably spoil the point.

Now a clone... I would need to fall in love with a clone first but yes, I guess I could fall in love with the clone as long as it made choices, had some differences to me, and loved me and wouldn't cheat.

It's because guys would spend too much time making out with their Marlin Monro Bot to do anything else. I saw the propaganda vid

Russell Howard sums it up well:

What I am saying is that men who are not likely to even be wanted on the dating market in the first place will drop out to be with their Megan Foxbots along with guys who are maybe 7-8 in terms of social status and looks. You have to look at history and the circumstances surround each time period along with the cultural norms. Post WW1 and Post WW2 societies did not have the "Four Sirens of the Sexual Apocalypse" which are:

there are no rigged laws. and women are still at a huge disadvantage financially - especially after divorce, which we already showed you (you conveniently ignore any proof that undermines your misogynistic viewpoint).

you are making it clearer and clearer that you have an agenda on WP; for some reason you seem to want more men to drop out of the dating scene. is that because you want women to be "punished" for your perceived slights?

I never said those "4 sirens" were rigid or concrete final explanations. All I was pointing put were possible sociological changes that have likely altered the dating scene.

It seems more and more like you just resort to ad hominem arguments every time someone doesn't agree with you.

If I wanted women to be punished, then I wouldn't be happy for Erisad.

let me rephrase. i've never seen a single post from you that was positive or complimentary about women in general. your posts about women as an overall group (and men's relationships with women) are very often negative, judgemental, and unkind.

i am overwhelmed with the unbelievable amounts of misogynistic viewpoints on WP. these attitudes are nothing new, but i've only been here a few months. and when i see a lot of posts like that coming from one person, i do start to wonder exactly what is going on there. i shall try to keep it from getting so personal, as it isn't fair for me to do that. but i want it understood that women are people that are worth treating well in words and actions.

i am just as quick to jump on any posts that are unfair towards men as well, but they are not nearly so common. i love men a great deal, and i also love women. i don't like to see remarks that are intended to be disparaging towards an entire gender. it creates an environment that is unfriendly to an important group on WP, and i will definitely speak up about it, even if it contributes to the hostility. or even if i become a target (too late!).

I could love a clone of myself. We'd misunderstand each other perfectly.

Well said.
