Just sit back and relax. Let the chair do all the work.

Hmmm… Perhaps it’s time for a career change…

Experts Ponder a Future of New Sex Gizmos, Robots

When America’s top sex researchers gathered recently to discuss the next decade in their field, some envisioned a future in which artificial sex partners could cater to every fantasy.

“What is very likely to be present before 2016 would be a multi-sensual experience of virtual sex,” said Julia Heiman, director of the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction at Indiana University, Bloomington.

“There is a possibility of developing erotic materials for yourself that would allow you to create a partner of certain dimensions and qualities, the partner saying certain things in that interaction, certain things happening in that interaction.”

A field dubbed “teledildonics” already allows people at two remote computers to manipulate electronic devices such as a vibrator at the other end for sexual purposes.

Going even a level further, other researchers say in decades to come advanced devices will be able to stimulate the brain to create a sexual experience without manipulating genitalia.

Marvin Minsky, a pioneer in the study of artificial intelligence dating back to 1951, said such devices could either trigger an actual physical response from the brain, or have the entire experience take place in the mind with the sensation of sex — but without the mess or risk of sexually transmitted disease.

“It’s bound to happen … and is not as far off as some people think,” Minsky, a professor emeritus at MIT, said of direct brain manipulation. “They are doing things with monkeys but it is not a big world-class industry yet, so that could take 20-30 years.”

“But if the game (industry) people got involved in some underdeveloped country that didn’t have any laws against it, it could all happen twice as fast.”

    I cannot wait to see what the Bible thumpers have to say about this. Is virtual sin worse or better than actual sin? They are probably organizing now to fight against it.

  2. Gary Marks says:

    This bothers me. According to the article, “A field dubbed ‘teledildonics’ already allows people at two remote computers to manipulate electronic devices such as a vibrator at the other end for sexual purposes.”

    If my tax dollars are paying the people at the NSA to eavesdrop on our communications, I want to make darn sure they’re not distracted by all these teledildonic sessions. I’m afraid this might prove too powerful and attractive a diversion for them. I think our congressional representatives need to sit down with the President and make it clear that his wiretapping program must specifically exclude all teledildonic communications. It’s just a shame we can’t have hearings on the subject, because that might be fun to watch.

    That is an interesting chair…..especially the foot rest….or whatever it’s for resting.

  4. Raff says:

    I wonder what the mens version of that chair looks like.. lol

    If a sperm is wasted God gets quite Irate…

  5. rus62 says:

    #5 – Doesn’t it get wasted if a woman takes birth control?

    I wonder if Dr. Sue has one of these?

  6. joshua says:

    who’s Dr. Sue?

  7. zhanster says:

    Geez, who the hell would buy a thing like that? You’ve gotta be pretty desperate. I swear there should be a ban on those things, it’s just freaking me out.

    Yeah… I remember this thing being shown in the movie “Demolition Man”. Stallone and Sandra Bullock were getting it on by wearing some sort of contraption on their heads.
