“… when sex doll and robot advocates promote the use of these products as being beneficial for ‘people’, they mean male people. When they claim sex robots could help alleviate loneliness, they mean men’s loneliness, not women’s. When they argue sex robots could be used by the elderly, they mean elderly men. When they champion the sexual rights of disabled individuals, individuals, they mean disabled men. There is little concern for women’s suffering, but if men are denied the ‘right’ to sex on demand, this is framed as deprivation.”
“That a piece of silicone in the shape of a woman could be seen as an acceptable replacement for a human woman – or even superior to an actual woman – demonstrates how too many men view women: as less than human, or at least not human in the way men are human, but rather as the means to fulfil their sexual gratification, a set of holes to provide sexual relief whenever required.”
“Female-bodied sex dolls and robots that are always ready and available for men’s sexual use portray women’s consent to sexual acts as irrelevant.”
“… predicated on men’s absolute sexual freedom without limits.”
“By design, sex robots do not have the ability to complain or reject the user.”
“It is worth contemplating how a man who has repeatedly practiced this sexual dynamic on a doll might relate sexually to a woman.”
“According to MRAs, … if men can purchase a sex doll, they no longer have any need for living women.”
THANK GOD.
““Men will make use of whatever technology is available to engage in forms of terrorism against women” (Jeffreys, 2020, p. 101).”
“From online groups that exist to trade pornographic photos of unknowing women, apps designed to virtually undress women, the advent of virtual flashing through Airdrop, and spyware enabling abusive men to track their female partner’s movement, to name just a few examples – technology poses a growing threat to women. Men can turn women into pornography – without their knowledge or consent.”
“”It is a profound betrayal to know that thousands of men saw your assault and not only did nothing to flag it, but actively sought it out and enjoyed it (ParlVu, 2021; Roper, 2021).”
“Perhaps there is no better tactic to silence a woman and take away her power than reducing her to the status of fuck doll, an object existing for men’s sexual gratification.”
“Sex doll advocates argue there is no harm in men’s violence against dolls, as there is no victim. But sex dolls and robots function as stand-ins for women.” “It is seen as inconceivable that men’s sexual ‘needs’ could go unmet, or that all their sexual desires might not be accommodated.”
