        I don't know. It's a complicated thing.

        How many would be used to help people? How many would be used for people to act out their sick abuse fantasies?

        who would like a safe way to experience intimacy without the stress and worry

        Yeah! A characteristically human function, just without all the messy and unpredictable things that make it human!

        Like playing sports, with no physical exertion so disabled people can do it, and with nothing at stake so it doesn't overwhelm anyone.

            I’m a transhumanist, I don’t believe in being human in the first place

            Fair enough.

            I think there's a lot of value in experiencing the physicality, discomfort, exertion, imperfection, non-guaranteed, risky aspect of living. Don't get me wrong, I want to see an end to most illness, the extension of the human body, and the ability to biologically reset our brains so we can live again as if waking from a deep sleep. But I think being an organism, having a body is a good thing. I think that in many ways the search for perfection removes meaningfulness.

      Picture if your favorite sex toy could also tell you that you are doing a good job then make you dinner afterwards. It is the trad husband/wife future ever nerd secretly hopes will come someday
