I don’t get why everyone’s always trying to build humanoids. It doesn’t need to have a human head and operating feet to be a good sex partner.

Sci-fi robots are still teasing the minds of many. Like hoverboards. And Mars colonization. Although many of them are pretty unpragmatic and consist of more problems that they'd solve.

Because they want to replace the complexities and pitfalls of human relationships with something compliant that they can fuck without it asking for anything in return.
