ORIGINAL: Mobius I don't remember this being addressed in any sci-fi show. Maybe it's too far out there for writers to deal with. (Actually, the only way writers deal with it is having the robot AI go out of control and kill or injure humans.) Robot sex partners certainly would limit interpersonal relationships between humans leading to less normalization of individuals. It might mean more radicalized behavior. I'm not passing judgement but unlike many sci-fi things this will happen. Actually, many jobs will be handled by robots. quote:
Buried in the article is the proposal by the World Health Organization to classify "failure to find a sexual partner" as a disability. That would make a very large number of people disabled. . . The WHO might only approve if they were carbon neutral, so solar panels would have to be installed on their backsides. Their was an episode of Twilight zone where a man was banished to Mars from earth for his crimes. A party would come every three years to bring him supplies. One visit they brought him a Robot woman companion.(I imagine sex was involved. After time, he was pardoned, when he was retrieved he broke down when he could not bring her back. It was an episode made in 1959 called "The Lonely"
