Planned Obsolescence

ex-machina

The mainstream loves a salacious story about the sexual misconducts of men. With the recent Ashley Madison data leak the narrative was one of blaming and shaming the overwhelming majority of men who signed up for an account to cheat in their spouses. This has resulted in more than one suicide. A topic of the Man in Demand Q&A session I fielded was how the Red Pill lens isn’t limited to just scoffing at the Blue Pill in popular media, but that it also gives men a sensitivity and awareness to better understand the motivations for social narratives like this.

Red Pill aware men understand that if there is an opportunity to cast blame or doubt on a man over his sexual impulse, or the consequences for allowing it to lead to behavior that conflicts with a feminine-primary social order, shaming will always be the go-to, socially acceptable strategy. Sex will always be a clichéd thumbscrew to gauge men’s personal resolve, and this is a built-in failsafe of control for the Blue Pill’s conditioning of men.

Red Pill men understand the motivating incentives for this “cheating” and that in a westernizing culture, 50%+ of marriages are clinically and practically sexless, it’s not hard to understand the want for a man to find some temporary sexual release in infidelity, porn or delusions of emotional infidelity. It’s also easy to understand how the paradox of commitment would drive such men to suicide.

This is simply one data point of many in a larger Red Pill awareness that indicates some very uncomfortable truths women need to confront; whether single or married, men will actively seek a practical solution to their sexlessness. And it is just this sexual problem solving that will ultimately challenge women’s unilateral, social and personal power over their own Hypergamy. On a limbic level women and the imperative are aware of this challenge. Thus, it’s controlled for by investing in conditioning men to feel guilt or shaming for ever embracing their masculine sexual nature. It’s a threat.

Keep this fact in mind as I explore today’s topic. Women and feminine-primary culture have done an amazing job at commodifying women’s singular, primary agency with men – their physicality and sexual availability. It’s de rigueur in the manosphere to write articles about women reducing themselves to being next to valueless to men beyond their sexual attributes. I’ve written in the past about women’s commodifying love and sex, however recently women are being forced to face the realities of making their sexuality a commodity.

What women, both prominent and insignificant, are coming to realize is that the ultimate plan of feminism (destroying the evolved, complementary family structure of parenting) is really a planned obsolescence for womankind. As I was coming to this realization I found it rather ironic that only 5 years ago we had the likes of Hannah Rosin profiting from the idea that men were (or were becoming) obsolete. Five years later it appears the fear now is that it’s women who will become obsolete in the most literal, commodified sense. That fear is beginning to show.

In the Future Sexbots will Drink Feminist Tears

If you follow me on twitter or you’re even peripherally aware of MSM gender sensationalism in a Red Pill context you’ll know that the topic du jour this week is the coming, realistic, availability of robotic sex partners and the efforts being made to legislate against their development by ‘concerned’ women. Heartiste and many other manosphere writers naturally picked up on this. I particularly enjoyed Milo Yiannopoulos’ piece Sexbots: Why Women Should Worry.

But male sexual appetites are easily satisfied, despite what women will tell you. Blow jobs really aren’t that difficult, and in any case most blokes are fine with a pizza and a wank. For many men, sex is a nice bonus, but it’s not essential. When you introduce a low-cost alternative to women that comes without all the nagging, insecurity and expense, frankly men are going to leap in headfirst.

One of the primary and evolved differences in men and women’s neural firmware is that men are natural and intrinsic problem solvers. I’ve pointed it out in many an essay; men are wired to solve problems with a rudimentary, deductive logic process. It’s one of the reasons we get ourselves into such horribly misled predicaments with women; we expect a binary, A to B to C level of reason with women (reinforced by equalist ideology) and deductively try to solve a sex and intimacy problem with them.

Improvisation and innovation are what we do to live better; one reason men naturally view women as sex objects is literally due to wiring in our brains that predispose us to using tools. So it’s really not much of a stretch to see how men will use this inventiveness to solve a need for sex. And in an intersexual social environment that’s predicated on the commodification of sex, well, you can see how the advancement of sexual substitutes and virtual sexual experiences would be driven by supply and demand.

It’s science fiction at this stage, but the ball is rolling and this is causing the Feminine Imperative to confront uncomfortable possibilities with just the proposition of having a sexual monopoly disrupted be the innovations of men.

Do Robots Dream of Electric Sin?

As might be expected, Dalrock took a shot at this story from a Christian moralistic angle – would sex with a convincing facsimile of a woman qualify as sinning?

InnocentBystanderBoston had a good comment in that thread:

Aside from the purely moral question, there is another risk regarding sexbots. Our economy is built on the expectation that men will be motivated by marriage to produce in excess of their own needs. As we continue to degrade marriage, sexbots will be there to fill the gaps.

…with unilateral divorce law and the accompanying cash and prizes awarded to the female courtesy of judges immersed in the feminist imperative, I think s-xbots pretty much end marriage. If marriage isn’t completely destroyed forever with version 2.0, the s-xbot will most certainly destroy it. And why? The s-xbot will always give you s-x on demand. It will stay at home, faithful to you. It will not spend your money and ruin your credit rating. It will not get a judge to sign a restraining order against you. It can’t divorce you and take cash and prizes. It will never age maintaining its peak SMV forever (if you believe in Rollo’s charts.) So that will pretty much be it for feminism. Without the surplus wealth created by men to subsidize the parasitic nature of feminist centric Marriage 2.0, there can be no feminism. Women are net wealth consumers. Without husbands, there lives will ONLY be in decline. The feminist imperative can NOT allow these s-xbots to be made.

On a rudimentary level feminism has always recognized that women’s only real agency with men is sex. We can see this in the feminine-centric commodification of sex, and we can see this truth in (third wave) feminism’s embrace of sex positivity – but again, only within the confines of a feminine-centric and unilaterally feminine controlled context for that sex to happen in.

The increasingly more accepted Yes Means Yes legalistic checklist that underwrites sexual relations (for what feminists know will always be defined by ambiguous circumstances) is a glaring example of this litigious overreach in an effort to lock down unilateral control of Hypergamy for women. This is the degree of paranoia that the doubt of Hypergamous insecurity inspires in those women less capable of intrasexual competition with their sisters to secure it.

When granted the social facilities to do so, women will always base their personal choices, their personal ideologies, their social order and their legislative doctrines around relieving themselves of Hypergamous doubt and insecurities. In truth, women’s evolved socio-sexual filtering ensures that there is no practical relief from this. There is no 100% assuredness of Hypergamous choice; Hypergamy doubts optimization even after the best of choices, but if given the power, women will build a social order around an attempt to mutually allay that doubt, allay that sexual competition anxiety, and all at men’s expense and disempowerment.

Becoming Obsolete

If you ever need an example of the duplicity with which the Feminine Imperative really aligns itself with equalism, look no further than how that “equality” is expressed with preferring pro-feminine solutions to social problems.

There is a fundamental fear women experience in just the prospect of not having 100% control over their sexual selection, sexual strategy and ultimately optimization of their Hypergamy. Anything that challenges women’s unilateral control of their Hypergamous power – such as prostitution, male hormonal birth control, female viagra, DNA testing for paternity and now sexbots – must be ruthlessly and preemptively legislated against if feminine social primacy is to be maintained. Even the idea of sexbots destroying women’s monopoly on sex, however fantastical, must be eliminated before it becomes a threat.

Kathleen Richardson, a professor at De Montfort University in England, serves as an excellent example of this axiom:

“Sex robots seem to be a growing focus in the robotics industry and the models that they draw on — how they will look, what roles they would play — are very disturbing indeed,” she told the BBC.

She believes that they reinforce traditional stereotypes of women and the view that a relationship need be nothing more than physical.

“We think that the creation of such robots will contribute to detrimental relationships between men and women, adults and children, men and men and women and women,” she said.

I would agree that it is detrimental in these terms, but the fear of losing feminine primacy is evident in just the prospect of sexbots.

The squid ink here is the concern for reinforcing “traditional stereotypes” of women for the almost unanimously male demographic who’d buy a sexual substitute (notice there is no call for creating morbidly obese variants of sexbots). The real fear is that men prefer that stereotype and it would force women to confront the truth that if they don’t accommodate men’s physical and psychological preferences (conventional femininity) they will progressively devalue women’s sexual agency over them by opting for the sexbot.

And that is a very pressing threat to women’s control over Hypergamy.

What were witnessing here is the acknowledgement that shaming men for their inventiveness in resolving their sexual needs isn’t working. Thus the social and legislative power the Feminine Imperative wields has to be invoked. Naturally there will be “think of the children” appeals and the admonishments of dehumanization on the part of men, but the binary truth is that women’s prime commodity (sex) could be reduced to making women obsolete.

The following is an exchange between Vitriol and YaReally from the last post.

“However, the biggest secret they all want to hide is that using money, whether doing something like you described or paying for pussy outright, is the most efficient way to get laid. If your main goal is to get laid as much as possible, does it matter whether you followed some arbitrary rules that some guy posted on the internet along the way? ”

lol brb taking a helicopter to the top of Mount Everest because it’s more efficient than those dumbasses who actually CLIMB it. It DOES matter to men who’s goal isn’t “to get laid as much as possible” but is “to get laid by girls who are legitimately into me, as much as possible”. To each their own.

If we accept the Pareto Principle as a rough guideline, 80% of men are Betas who simply don’t care to, or accept that they don’t have the capacity to, concern themselves with learning how to “get laid with girls who are genuinely into them.” They’ll create every manner of rationale to convince themselves that the girl who solves his sexual thirst is genuinely into him, or he’ll opt for the most available, most feasible, means to resolve that sexual deprivation. The ubiquitousness of free, easily accessible, streaming hi-def pornography is a testament to this dynamic.

Whether the reality of convincing sexbots is ever achieved isn’t really relevant in this equation, the fear of losing primary control of Hypergamy is what’s at stake. We see this fear manifested in criminalizing prostitution and the shame of men seeking sexual release via pornography and Ashley Madison accounts.

Recently I was asked about my take on the legal pushback on the part of women to regulate or outright ban the FDA approval of the female form of Viagra. From the socially acceptable perspective the fear is that the drug might be used as another (more effective) date rape drug. From a Red Pill perspective the fear is, once again, rooted in women’s fear of men circumventing women’s sexual strategy by chemically influencing their arousal process.

It’s one thing to forcibly rape a woman and thereby take control of her Hypergamous choice, but it quite another to prompt her into engaging in sex she is influenced to by some extrinsic means. As such, women’s sexual selection and Hypergamous optimization is effectively mitigated if not removed from the sexual equation by an invention of men. So once again we see the nervous efforts of the Feminine Imperative to ban any prospective attempts by men to exercise even a marginal control over Hypergamy.

Women have access to safe and legal abortion (a Hypergamous control), but a drug that might influence their libido and thus lead them to sexual choices they might no otherwise control and make, even the idea of that innovation needs regulation. Remove women from the sexual selection and arousal process and you make their only value – the value westernized women have systematically established for themselves – effectively obsolete.

That’s not a judgement call. Women tend to conflate their personal, intrinsic value with their sexual market value. However, in the SMP that is predicated upon women’s only value to men being sexual (not as life mates, mothers, or personal worth), the monopoly of sexual leverage becomes toothless.

Why?Because the Feminine Imperative is now Society’s Imperative. The default social code men are raised to obey is the FI full stop. Whether a male child is raised in a Emasculated Dad/ Empowered Mom family or a single mom household he is taught to obey the FI on pain of almost his own life.

It is a fascinating subject and too much is at stake for this to be allowed to happen. The impact on society (sexually, economically and culturally) will be absolutely profound. At first, men who use sexbots will be shamed mercilessly in the media. But that won’t work – after all, we live in a society where porn consumption is the norm. Everyone’s a wanker these days. So I expect, thanks to some bogus rationale, sexbots will be made illegal. Maybe sexbot manufacturers will be accused of making child versions, thus encouraging paedophilia.

@SD, I agree with you that the FI will keep on keeping on. That being said, the more fearful the FI becomes, the more they will attempt to implement levels of control over men’s sexual agency. As this occurs, men will begin to wake up in groves and considering the manosphere is already in existence and growing day by day, all men will have a safe haven to come to and learn about the issues that concern us in our modern society.

Hang on a minute there! If sexbots cause men to show less interest in real women, then why would a minor sexbot encourage men to seek out real minors (though I have absolutely no idea how one could realistically satisfy that desire outside of Incest) – surely it would satisfy any desire in that direction (which in any event is merely an extention of the normal male desire for youth and fertility).

Rollo, On a rudimentary level feminism has always recognized that women’s only real agency with men is sex

Important point, this. Traditional women never have accepted this narrative and provide:

1) care for the sick and elderly
2) childcare
3) cooking from scratch
4) housekeeping
5) sewing/mending/washing clothes
6) beautifying the home
7) and yes, sex and companionship

Men should rethink modernity (and children or marriage within it). It’s a bad deal.

@ Sun Wukong The problem I see with sex bots are power supply/cost, and material durability. The second one especially. Silicone, and most elastic polymers break down over time, become stiff, brittle, and crack. They stain easily, and are sensitive to solvents and cleaning agents like bleach. Exposure to UV is bad, dyes break down with exposure to lightand change color, repeated contact with other polymers can cause damage. A fleshlight doesn’t suffer the same wear and tear as a animatronic robot which has particular problems where the soft materials are subject to repeated stresses at the joints and so… Read more »

@Badpainter I didn’t they wouldn’t have maintenance, but also keep in mind materials research is part of what I mentioned. Additionally, human skin isn’t all that durable. In fact, it dies and replaces itself on a very regular basis, each cell living only a few years before it becomes part of the dust in your house. It wouldn’t be impossible for someone to devise a nano machine system (already a similar idea proposed for human blood cells and immune systems) that routinely performs maintenance during *ahem* “downtime” to the skin as well. I really think they’re all very solvable problems… Read more »

Porn is sexbot 1.0. That has already shifted the war of the sexes greatly. How many men aren’t chasing women, because they’ve already been satiated? I suspect the satiation is onesided, because women can’t get that same sexual gratification..they need the relationship or at least game to get them excited. I feel like I’ve been blessed with timing for being born, women seem to be sluttier than ever and at the same time more willing to date older men.

Of course, the other possibility is a human clone with the necessary telemere regeneration systems (to negate aging) and a computerized AI brain instead of a human one in the head.

Imho VR will be a more readily available option before sexbots become a reality. You can combine VR with a “basic” sexbot to create a fully immersive experience. Yes, even VR is still in the developing stage, but it’s already quite good. I’d expect it to become more realistic & immersive within the next 10-20 years (given the incredibly fast development of computers, smartphones etc. I don’t think that’s an all too optimistic guess).

Guys will go one of two ways with this sexbot stuff, just as they have with porn. Some will get their thrills virtually and rarely if ever avail themselves of the real thing. Others will enjoy the new virtual thrills for a while, but it will lose its novelty and they will eventually come back around to seeking real live women. The latter group of guys will come to the conclusion that nothing can really take the place of the real thing. Change of subject: I think the Red Pill is gradually becoming more second nature to me.

This post reveals one very interesting fact, that male sexual behaviour is in general (alphas exempted) reactive to female hypergamic designs. Sexbots aren’t a victorious male thrust, it is an imposed defeated retreat, a retreat from sexual validity, pride and self esteem. A 1/4 of men don’t reproduce anyway, so no one will miss ‘creepers’ voluntarily removing themselves from the sexual marketplace. One shouldn’t underestimate the capacity of remarrying men to monopolise the marriage market and skew sex ratios. A man remarrying a single woman effectively means one man knocks out two women from the marketplace (unless of course marrying… Read more »

Agreed that feminism will fear and fight sexbots. Agreed that sexbots will hurt the feminine agenda by decreasing the opportunity to consolidate on beta bucks. But it’s just check, not checkmate. I still think the feminist counter move to sexbots is the guaranteed wage, i.e. federal unemployment benefits, sans time limit, large enough for a single mom to afford a mcmansion, a car payment and a(nother) boob job. It will probably be written to cater to single moms, in deniable ways that can still be spun as equalist. Clearly sexbots empower betas to withhold the gravy train from epiphany girls… Read more »

The trick for marketing will be to consider them real and never back down from that view.

They aren’t “bots” or “toys” or anything else that diminishes their value to the man that NEEDS it.

Proper pronouns. She, her, them. NEVER “it” Even call them by a real name if possible.

You NEED her, you DESERVE her, and SHE is REAL.
