6 Reasons Why I'd Never Marry a Robot


1. They don't have soul. Ok, or maybe next time technology will be such that robots can think and feel independently? But that will still be a product of a bunch of scientists. And so...I'd never be able to detach myself from that fact and it's still kinda gross to love a machine

2. We'll never have a strong relationship. I'll probably replace mine once I get bored of the features of my current one. That's probably not what I want for a life partner. Or am I just being a girl? (I WONDER IF MALES WILL WANT THAT, HMMM.)

3. They may be perfect compared to humans, but... I'll be dealing with hundreds of pounds of plastics, steels, fluids and wires. What if there's a technical glitch or virus, which causes it to become like the Terminator, thus killing me in a matter of seconds? *Ahh!*

4. What will happen in bed? 

5. How about our kids?!

6. I can control it. I don't think that's the essence of love, getting exactly what you want out of something, even to the extent of controlling it. PLUS, seriously, what a henpecked husband that'd be!


P.S. Well. You may not agree with me. You may instead identify with Zoltan, a 33 year old guy from Georgia who has a great tale of robo-love. Read about his story at: http://gizmodo.com/367698/technosexual-one-mans-tale-of-robot-love
