In recent years, the dating scene for men has declined and degraded in quality for any number of reasons - dating apps commodifying relationships, women developing unrealistic standards, etc…

If sexbots were to come to market which could convincingly emulate personalities and human behavior, would you completely switch over to them and stop trying to date real women?

Or would sexbots just be an occasional “fling” or something you would avoid entirely?

    Lowkey bordering off-topic here but I honestly feel like anybody who thinks real people can be replaced by something like sex robots shouldn’t be attempting to seriously date in the first place

      Two things to consider are:

      1. In my hypothetical, I did say that these were androids which could convincingly emulate personalities and human behavior. In other words, they would be capable of fulfilling psychological and emotional sides of a relationship.

      2. The dating scene is particularly rough for men at the moment for various reasons. The internet’s effect on social activities magnifies that, and the shift to work-from-home has made it worse.
