So over in the Men Going Their Own Way subreddit, the regulars are talking about sexbots, as it seems every single person in the broader manosphere has been doing this week.
And one of the regulars came up with a creepy new spin on the issue that took even me by surprise.
So the fellas were discussing the possibility of making sexbots look like anyone you want them to … and this happened.
![joblessguy10 11 points 1 day ago What's more, we can probably design our own sex bots with their own unique likeness--or even ones based on actual women, with whatever body type you desire. You can have one with the face of Angelina Jolie with her succulent full lips paired with a body of big ass pornstar like Jada Stevens This may happen with more advanced forms of CAD and 3D laser based copies. permalinkembedsaveparentreportgive goldreply [–]moosevice_dot_com 28 points 1 day ago Or how about modeling your sexbot to look like your ex GF? Imagine that, she will be furious knowing that you get to still bang her doppelganger without paying for it anymore. HAHA. Good Times Ahead. permalinkembedsaveparentreportgive goldreply [–]joblessguy10 4 points 1 day ago I've never had a girlfriend but if I did, I would totally do that. Good time ahead indeed. Hopefully, we'll be alive by then to enjoy more advanced sex bots with pre-programmed multi functions.](https://i0.wp.com/www.wehuntedthemammoth.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/gfsexbot.png?resize=532%2C436&ssl=1)
This is the creepiest thing I’ve read in I don’t know how long, and I’m someone who reads the manosphere every day of the week.
I hate to have to bring you the bad news, fella, but if you’re sitting around imagining how cool it would be have a sexbot that looked just like your ex, so you could keep “banging” her even after she tossed you out of her life, you are not only not “over her” but you are also not in any way, shape, or form “going your own way.”
And you’re not fooling anyone by talking about the delight you’ll get in “still bang[ing] her doppelgänger without paying for it anymore HAHA.” Because what you’re really doing is symbolically “banging” your ex not without “paying for it” — these sexbots will cost many thousands of dollars – but without her consent. It’s a kind of ritual rape, less about sexual pleasure than about violating your ex.
How do I know that? Because you’re clearly more interested in making her “furious” than you are in “banging her doppelgänger.” Indeed, you mentioned her (predictably and justifiably) furious reaction before you even got around to mentioning the sex.
If you were really interested in “going your own way,” I think it’s safe to say, you wouldn’t be sitting around on the internet imagining elaborate ways to hurt your ex. Get over her. Get over yourself. And just fucking GO already.
@msexceptional
Yeah, it could be better worded; but back in the day that’s how they formulated capacity to reason.
There were some arguments not dissimilar to the issues we’ve been talking about though.
These guys are like the reincarnation of Oskar Kokoschka. He dated human sex goddess Alma Mahler and when she dumped him, he ordered a life-sized doll made to look like her.

Thus going down in history forever as a creepy loser who couldn’t get over his ex.

This whole thing reminds me of a current rivalry that’s going on in the WWE. (Don’t worry, I won’t use names to not confuse people who don’t follow it like I do.)
So, a big Bulgarian guy had a Russian girlfriend/manager. She always dressed in suits with pencil skirts and tied her hair up in a bun. They were pretty dominant for a good long while, but eventually, they fell apart as the Bulgarian started to lose matches. Eventually, he dumped her.
She moved on, started dating an American guy, and she moved from Heel (bad guy) to Face (good guy). This really seemed to get under the Bulgarian’s skin.
He eventually started dating another pale, blond lady, though this woman is American. Slowly, he started to mold her into his ex: she wore the same suits, she did her hair up the same way.
Even the commentators think it’s creepy, and have started calling the Bulgarian’s new girlfriend [Russian woman’s name] 2.0.
The whole thing is just…this whole idea of “remaking” your ex because you can’t get over them is just…

No kidding. I’d want a dragon or something, I mean, c’mon.
And there’s several video game characters I would pay to have made to be bangable. Bow chicka wow wow.I think I mentioned this before having robots around will be awful for people (including me) who have automatanophobia. But if it will make the world a safer, better place to keep creeps off the streets and online then I’m up for it.

“No kidding. I’d want a dragon or something, I mean, c’mon.”
Falcor from the never ending story, maleficent and dragons from skyrim that would be awesome.
“And there’s several video game characters I would pay to have made to be bangable. Bow chicka wow wow.”
Dante from devil may cry, Link and other characters from legend of Zelda; cloud, sephoroth and Leon from kingdom hearts, and shakuya from okami. There’s more but I’ll stick to the ones who came from the games I played.
And I realize how creepy my comment is. Pay no attention to it instead here’s kitties.

Moooo, snuggly kitties!
I’m sorry, what was going on again?
It’s been quite a while since I played video games, so I’m a bit limited in which characters I can fancy.
I suppose the paddle in ‘Pong’ was quite nice. The left hand one; the right hand one seemed a bit stand offish.
@Fruitloopsie
Are we doing this? Alrighty then! Here is a quick list of 10 video game women that I would like to DATE (emphasis) if I was still single (and they actually existed 8p):
Tifa – Final Fantasy 7
Yuna – Final Fantasy 10
Helena – Dead or Alive Series
Bayonetta – Bayonetta/Bayonetta 2
Jill Valentine – Resident Evil series
Kyoko Kirigiri – Danganronpa 1
Sonia Nevermind – Danganronpa 2
Tali’Zorah nar Rayya – Mass Effect series
Amanda Ripley – Alien Isolation
And my personal favorite:
April Ryan – The Longest Journey
And if the date goes really well, then…. as a famous commentator once said:
Bow chicka wow wow!
There you go! High Five! 8p
Since the whole problem the MGTOWs and MRAs seem to have with feminists and feminism in general is the fact that women have the right to their own agency, the right to say “no” to sex if they don’t want it. These sex bots would now satisfy their desire to have sex whenever they wanted ad they wouldn’t ever have to worry about being rejected. So yeah, rapey and creepy.
x’D I have to be honest, I find this concept positively hilarious. I know it should give me the heebie jeebies, but an embittered ex taking great lengths/spending so much money just to own a piece of my likeness would only be leaving me with enormous power over him. It’s so over the top ridiculous I couldn’t even feel victimized knowing he’s pathetically bonking an insentient nonreciprocal version of me because I’ve decided he’s not worth my time anymore. All the better when he ends up regretting the investment after he sees it failing to get to me (if indeed that was the point). Then there’s explaining the thing to any future potential dates, whom he’s exponentially damaged his chances with after a stunt this unfathomably stupid. I just see the decision ruining him financially and socially in the end. Sorry if it offends anyone, but I think overall I’d find myself enjoying the spectacle in a very schadenfreude kind of way. I offer these silly napping kitties to feel like slightly less of a horrid person.
Should clarify, I would absolutely not find this hilarious happening to someone who would feel violated or victimized by it. No one deserves that feeling.
I was thinking of Skyrim when I typed that. XD
Though, Maleficent is an option I never previously considered…
It’s funny you should bring up Devil May Cry, because I’ve always had a soft spot for Virgil. XD
But yeah, there’s so many characters from games that I would love to pay to have made in reality. The only problem is, with such a big investment involved on my end, who do I pick to be my Bedroom Trophy Partner? There’s so many factors to consider…
Will 3D printing eventually help make this cheaper?
Oh, the irony of your header photo. I hope you’ll give credit where credit is due. http://treechangedolls.tumblr.com/
I think I should get to copyright and license all sexdolls of myself, so that all my bitter exes are as frustrated with them as they obviously were with me.
What happens when these sexbots grow sapience and decide to NOT be cumdumpsters?
Now THAT’s an ethical question.
Do you put them down? Let them have their freedom? Knowing MRA’s it wouldn’t matter to them. “It’s their function” would be a hypothetical reoccurring soundbyte.
It sounds like the plot for a Philip K Dick novel.
OR
A Mega Man X storyline.

I don’t know if you’re coming back but please refer to our community guidelines before posting thank youuuu.
Maybe I’m just down on technology but I don’t really get why we would want to create sentient robots. If they were truly sentient, we would be compelled to give them the rights that humans have. This takes a lot of steam out of the ‘use robots for dumb dangerous labor’ idea and it raises so many other ethical issues.
Also, when the robots inevitably rise up, it will be the second most foreseen apocalypse after the zombies.
Get a bot with switchable hair modes and you can have both Dante and Virgil.
@katz
lol
@katz
Even in the context of this discussion, those are two of the strangest sentences I’ve ever read.
Wikipedia treats this bizarre episode tactfully, so tactfully that I had to reread it to be sure I understood the exact nature of this commissioned artwork:
But Kokoschka himself is blunt:
http://www.alma-mahler.com/engl/almas_life/puppet.html#
Yeah, the guy’s a creeper.
@Mizuki:
Yeah, I’m the same. Robots exist so that humans can be liberated from unpleasant, repetitive, dangerous tasks (such as sleeping with MGTOWs.) This should be exalted, not threatened.
Interestingly, the people who know the most about robots (for example former NASA roboticist turned cartoonist Randall Munroe) are all pretty relaxed about this, while the people who know the least about it (for example nerd messiah Elizier Yudkowsky) are the ones spreading alarm.
If the robot apocalypse does happen, I imagine it as being something closer to The Culture than The Terminator: humans will just be put to one side in our little paradise enclosures and lotus-eater machines, and the robots will get on with the real business of travelling to the stars.
I’m sure these guys would like to use the images of famous beatiful women but “the right of publicity prevents the unauthorized commercial use of an individual’s name, likeness, or other recognizable aspects of one’s persona in the USA. It gives a person the exclusive right to license the use of their identity for commercial promotion.” If a person can establish an aspect of his or her identity as a trademark, protection may be provided by Federal trademark law also.
Hopefully this could be used by anyone to prevent the use of their image on a sexbot or other robot commercially produced

No one has mentioned the Buffy episode “Dead Things” ?!
Normally I’d cite the fact that Kokoschka mutilated his full as proof of what would happen to the sexbots, but that doll was Uncanny Valley as hell.
