So a couple of days ago, I wrote about an exciting new development in the world of imaginary women: a Japanese company has developed a holographic virtual waifu for men who prefer the women in their life to be completely submissive, completely imaginary, and live in a little jar.
At the time, I wondered aloud what would happen once MGTOWs discovered this new imaginary lady. Would they hail her as a big step towards the eventual replacement of all real human women? Or would they complain about all the naggy texts she’s programmed to send to her real-boy masters?
Actually, they’ve done both.
“Just take my money, “they” can shame me I don’t care I want one,” wrote one happy Redditor in the Men Going Their Own Way subreddit in a thread devoted to the imaginary jar lady.
[A] single tear of joy just rolled down my eye, the post woman age is here boys and its glorious. The more lesbians I see the better hahaha
Another commenter pointed out the ways this imaginary women — which is scheduled to the hit market late next year — will be superior to the flesh and blood kind:
Men will enjoy this because it means a virtual companion who will make the home ready everytime they come back and talk to them. That feeling of care and being available to help you whenever you need it is a luxury a real life woman would never provide on account of female nature being selfish and needy. As men, we tend to value loyalty above all else and a virtual companion does just that. Furthermore, this is far better than the alternative of picking up the house after a lazy ungrateful real life woman. Men no longer have to work the second job of taking care of a grown child.
But he can’t imagine women getting the same sort of satisfaction from a tiny virtual dude:
Now, for women, this device does nothing. Women desire social status and bragging that you have a virtual companion is probably the furthest thing you can do to gain status. While they may secretly enjoy it, they aren’t the audience to shell out $3000 bucks. They’d rather put that $3000 bucks into doing their hair and makeup in order to try and seduce a top-tier man. They do not value a clean house or loyalty and any companionship they may want is already readily available because of all her beta orbiters who are at her beck and call.
Others were less enthusiastic.
“[N]o…if i can’t f*ck it and it doesn’t cook it’s worthless to me,” wrote one.
“Wow. it’s kinda depressing,” wrote another.
I couldn’t help but cringe… we can find strength in independence rather than seek false comfort. It just seems delusional.
And then there was that whole “texting you while you’re at work” thing.
“I can see how the Herbivore Men would like this, but I’m gonna pass,” one commenter declared.
No way am I checking in to tell a bunch of pixels what time I’ll be home. Being alone would be far better.
MGTOWs: As predictable as they are creepy.
Of course, in twenty years (ten?) everyone will have tiny holographic friends, living in jars, floating in the air, who knows where else. I’m holding out for a tiny lady in the radiator.

… so I’ve got a theory, inspired by Last Thursdayism, that whatever the fuck that is was actually created on November 9th when the universe threw itself into the Twilight Zone.
The scary shit is that this actually sounds more likely than the reality.
Honestly, though animals can be healing where human relationships fail, I don’t trust these guys who lack a healthy sense of give and take with pets.
The post woman age is based on the premise that all men secretly want to be MGTOW. Because they think our only purpose is to dispense sex, they assume no men want a relationship with women and only put up with us to get laid. Once the sexbot and artificial womb technology come, every man on the planet will go MGTOW. They presumably put only Y chromosome sperm in the wombs so women will just die out.
As far as I know, it’s possible to make an embryo with the DNA of two eggs but not two sperm cells, so they’re going to have a tough time reproducing. Maybe they’re just planning on cloning themselves?
I’m also not sure why think women wouldn’t just use the artificial womb technology to procreate without men. But don’t let rational thinking get in the way of a good genocidal fantasy.
@ wwth
They tried putting the DNA from two Y-chromosomes into a chicken egg, but the result was a beta-male that went (wait for it…)
“cuck, cuck, cuck”
I’m getting a horrible image of these guys’ bedstands having copies of The Iron Dream with the pages stuck together.
@Peevee
I saw Eraserhead years ago and I still have recurring nightmares about it.
I’m waiting to see if the poor waifu AI is going to end up a raging racist like the Microsoft chat bot.
1. Never seen Eraserhead.
2. I’m with Valkyrie, the hologram is not going to clean your house. Maybe that guy looks at this as the first step toward android sex-and-housework devices.
3. Am I the only one who can’t read “$3000 bucks” without hearing “Three Thousand Dollar-Bucks!” in my head?
the more lesbians I see the better”

I live way south of Whitefish by Yellowstone, and I love Montana, but we host a cesspool of white supremacist militia assholes. But liberal and moderate montanans have taken a stand against it before

I expect a lot of bold fascist crap to happen here in the next four years, but we’ll keep fighting.
@Valkyrine
By itself if can’t, but I suppose you could connect such a thing to a Roomba and a few similar gadgets (I’m sure a mop-bot could be made), it actually could do a fair amount of cleaning.
@WWTH
Still can’t work; artificial uterus or no artificial uterus, clone or no clone, you need an ovum from somewhere to get an embryo.
Could probably get away with a chimp ova or something. I’m assuming they’re not going to try to exterminate nonhuman females, anyway.
ETA: Also, technically, as long as the X of one dude’s 23 and the Y of another’s were matched up, they could probably still reproduce sexually. I mean, at the cellular level. It wouldn’t require actual sex between two men, sadly.
@Michael Brew
Late night television. It seems like watching late night television is their primary form of social interaction.
If I had to be more specific, I’d guess that it’s either broadcasts of old stand-up comic routines (think Henny Youngman and Rodney Dangerfield), or maybe “Married With Children” re-runs.
[I never quite understood “Married With Children”. Apparently no one ever cleaned the house, but it was always spotless. Also they were able to maintain a two-story house and feed and clothe two children on a single minimum-wage salary. Life must have been so much easier in the 1990s.]
Oh, yeah, super easy in the ’90s. My mom could quit her job and get hired at another the same day. I could leave my dirty dishes on the coffee table and they’d somehow end up clean in the cabinet. I just put clothes in a hamper and they’d be hanging up in my closet all fresh the next day. Weird how that happened…
WWTH,
I know, I know…and I hesitated confessing that I’ve never seen any of that franchise.
Alas. I’m old. And squeamish.
Thiazen Red: I know, right? I saw it in 1979, and I am still haunted by it.
I have to admit, if they had a version of the holographic character that wasn’t a submissive sex toy or something creepy like that, it might actually be kind of fun to have. Kind of like how it’s fun to chat with cleverbot, but this time cleverbot is one of your favorite characters with expressions and takes up space.
like imagine if Disney made a line of these with their characters. it’d be pretty cool. or other popular anime like Naruto or Yuri on Ice or something.
but people have to be creepy about what could be a cute, possibly mainstream product.
Yeah, this device could turn on a Roomba or something (aren’t they supposed to come on by themselves?), but someone would still have to pick up the dirty socks and put the dishes in the dishwasher.
Oh wait
All they’re eating is charcoal-briquette chicken breasts on paper plates. There aren’t going to be any dishes.
… and seagulls, right? Carbonised seagulls?
@opposablethumbs: Yes, of course. I’m sorry. Clearly something as fancy as chicken breast you only eat on Sunday.
I err…
…
Have found two of the weirdest memes ever, in the comments section of the Daily Stormer. They’re also much less blood-chilling than what you usually find there, so they actually have some entertainment value.
Here’s a screenie of the whole comment. Bear in mind, it’s still the Daily Stormer, so there’s a lot of Angry White Man ™ in those two memes.
It’s like a MGTOW-Fascist. (Migto-fascist ? Meektoe fascist ?) This GrapeJuice fellow could be Mick Dash/Eurocreep. “The Crusades are a journey, not a geographical location !”
Although to be fair there IS a lot of overlap between MGTOW and fascists.
@Sinkable John
What.
@kupo
I don’t know. I stand by my previous statement : this is not reality anymore. Maybe there is after all a divine creator, and they just stopped giving a fuck after the election.
@Sinkable John: …
uh.
um.
okay.
@sinkable John
CRUSADES SMELL BETTER?????????????
no.
@Sinkable John
I’m pretty sure crusading smells bad, what with all the unwashed (by modern standards) people hacking each other’s bowels open and all. Can someone c/d?
