The usual suspects have spent the past week quite enamored with the idea of sex robots, and blogged about it most favorably. Tomassi has written about the “Planned Obsolescence” of women. What can I say, it’s a Brave New World and Stepford Wives R Us.
It’s somewhat amusing that none of these intellectual powerhouses have considered the fact that sex robots, rather than replacing women, could actually serve to replace men. Pride has a way of rendering one unable to see the forest for all the trees. Or perhaps they view their sex robots as some kind of consolation prize for the way men have been slowly written out of the biological equation, as we rapidly work to replace men and marriage with the protection and provision of the State.
I have a rather dark and cynical take on all this, almost bittersweet in its painful awareness of the truth. I don’t fear the obsolescence of women, obsolescence has been our state of being since the dawn of time. Girls are born into the world struggling for relevance, a world dominated by men. Heck, girls are born into the world struggling just to survive. Some of us don’t even make it to being born, sex selection tends to heavily favor males.
Tomassi says, “Women tend to conflate their personal, intrinsic value with their sexual market value.” Women do no such thing, men do that to us, men, and women who are the keepers of culture, those mothers who enforce female genital mutilation and Chinese foot binding, practices all through history designed to increase the sexual market value of girls.
Ask those 8 yr old girls turning tricks for American tourists in Thailand about their intrinsic worth and value as women. Ask a rape victim. Ask a child sexual abuse survivor about her intrinsic worth and value in the world of men. Ask all those club girls and dancers, prostitutes and trafficked kids. Heck, watch a catty young girl try to disqualify and discredit another woman. 99% of the time it’s going to involve demeaning her sexual worth and value.
The average age a girl learns what her intrinsic worth and value really is? 12 yrs old. By the time she is 12 yrs old she will have already learned every derogatory term designed to sexually shame women and remind us where our worth and value truly lies. She doesn’t need all those shaming words however, a few years of TV advertising has already taught her that women are nothing more than sexual commodities designed to sell products.
Miley Cyrus didn’t ride a wrecking ball and dance half-naked with teddy bears because people value her for her musical ability. In fact, a woman who can find popularity within the culture based on her musical abilities rather than her willingness to parade across the stage half-naked, is a rare woman indeed.
Obsolescence “is the state of being which occurs when an object, service, or practice is no longer wanted even though it may still be in good working order.”
Girls are born into the world struggling for relevance, fighting obsolescence, using every skill we have to avoid being perceived as nothing more than an object, a service, a practice, a commodity. Why is it so critical that we seek the favor of men, attempt to convince them we are full human beings, rather than flat two-dimensional sex objects? Because an object can be perceived as having no human worth and value, just a bit of collateral damage one needn’t feel any moral compunction about using and simply throwing away. Or leaving somewhere in a shallow grave….
Where do women learn what their personal, intrinsic value is really all about? From men! Women conflate nothing, women learn to perceive ourselves the way others have perceived us. Symbiosis. Karma, perfect justice. Who teaches us to perceive men as the enemy and to avail ourselves of whatever weapons we can use to defend ourselves?
Not all men are like this however, there are many fathers, husbands, brothers, who perceive girls and women as actual human beings, half the human race having intrinsic worth and value that goes way beyond our sexuality. I am blessed to have been surrounded by these kinds of men for so long, that I’ve nearly forgotten that the other kind even exists.
Orcs, I call them orcs. I do not fear the takeover of the sex robots, I embrace it. Any man like Dalrock who attempts to debate the moral hazards of exploiting a sex robot, a moral conundrum he has never even bothered to ask when it comes to an actual living, breathing, feeling woman, simply does not belong in the world of human relationships.
To achieve obsolescence in the eyes of such men would be a blessing for women and girls indeed. Bring on the robots.

Crude or not, this is a bitter truth. Our culture has (and the church has turned a blind eye) to young women pursuing all their ambitions and fulfilling their lusts- sexual or otherwise- throughout their early to mid 20’s only to wax eloquent about how many wonderful, accomplished, attractive women there are approaching 30 who are unable to find a husband. And basically it really does boil down to the way Dalrock expressed it: Young men are expected to marry women who have finally tired of having sex with other men and want to find a nice guy to settle down with. That’s the dominant narrative. Or at least it was from the late 80’s until about the 10 years ago.
Now, for the most part, I think this is an obsolete frame to argue from. Young women of any substance at all are not dating much, marrying quite early when/if the chance presents itself, and are living a much more chaste life (regardless of religious leanings) than you may realize. I have three early 20’s virgin daughters and their friends are either marrying, spending their Friday and Saturday nights alone, or here since we’re the only people they know who actually cook food. But they ain’t on the cock carousel.
So it’s not as cut and dry as it seems from either side.

I don’t, however, understand the whole brouhaha over sexbots. They have been available for a long while now, and nothing should stop the Irrational Male and his crew from availing themselves in their, um, glory. The sooner, the better, IMHO.
Here is one look at them and the men who love them (idealistically, of course ;)* ):
*Kidding aside, the “love,” as it were, for a sexbot is a great example of the kind of “idealistic love” that Tomassi & Co. blather about when they crow that men love idealistically (while women opportunistically). It is a narcissistic infatuation with a static, unchangeable object of sexual wish fulfillment by men who are incapable of forming mutually satisfying and loving relationships with real women.
Tomassi & Co.’s problem with women is that they do not conform to that particular image (of a static object of wish fulfillment), what with having thoughts, feelings, and desires of their own. Some of them even act on those, dreadful as it sounds.

It is much easier to meet both objectives with eternally young and compliant HB10 bots than human women.
Eliminating the need for “game” should be a relief to these fellas, as “game” is something that they grudgingly force on themselves and each other in a belief that, like magic, it will turn them to princes from the frogs that they are.

Yes, no doubt there are women who collude with psychopathic men and benefit from that collusion.

They are impressed with the psychopaths’ “decisiveness” and “strength” (= a lack of inhibitions and scruples), and their ability to get what they want in life, seeing it as a ticket to provision for themselves and their offspring, as well as status.
The joys of such an arrangement with psychopaths are very short-lived for non-psychopathic women, who learn soon enough (or not) that being seen and treated as an object in exchange for life security isn’t as rewarding as they believed it.

There’s an aspect of this that may or may not comport with your world-view, Mildly Concerned. The reason that she is called “Mystery” in the Book of Revelation is because women that operate in this fashion don’t declare themselves. In my experience, they operate through psychic channels and wavelengths that people focused on material existence tend to ignore. They operate in the background for exactly the reasons you describe, to operate openly would be painful to them. In fact, many of them discover their psychic strength through the survival of humiliation, fear and righteous anger.
So I don’t see them as “the enemy”, I see them as a necessary constituency for healing.

Brian, help me understand: what is this mysterious Mystery of which you speak? I’m guessing it is not the infamous PUA who’s adopted that bombastic nickname for himself.
It appears that you promote a more esoteric, as it were, view of reality. I would agree that from that perspective, things in our earthly, human realm may be just exactly as they should, in spite of their messiness. The psychopathic dealings and entanglements are thus part of a larger, unseen, but necessary whole — or a plan perhaps — the workings of which are beyond our immediate comprehension.
This should not stop us from pointing them out, would you agree? There are different ways to describe this proverbial elephant which every one of us is touching in the dark, and, put together, they will lead us to truth, if not exactly THE truth. We are an evolving species, and, in spite of developmental hiccups that include various manifestations of psychopathy and/or evil in our lives, the direction of that evolution appears to point toward love, to use a shortcut encompassing all the higher level human values.
With respect to “healing” psychopathy here, during our brief existence on this planet, I have a darker view. It is simply impossible. There are no cases of psychopaths who suddenly developed a conscience and changed their ways. In cases where such transformation appears to have happened, we usually find, through examining the person’s history, that a conscience was present there after all, but was deafened by traumas, defense mechanisms, and/or extremely unfavorable circumstances.

Complex comment, here, MC. Let me try this:
The Bible, as I interpret it, is the story of Humanity’s psychological evolution away from a primitive spirituality received from the animal kingdom to a spirituality of reason. In Revelation, the imagery of the final conflict has Christ confronted by two avatars of primitive spirituality: a beast with seven heads that represents masculine aggression, and a red beast with seven heads that represents feminine manipulation. As you and IB have pointed out, these two things tend to stimulate each other.
The rider of the red beast is a woman with the word “MYSTERY” on her forehead.
The etiology of psychopathy is complex, but at least some research therapists suggest that it is an arrested stage of development. I take my understanding from Cozolino’s “The Neuroscience of Human Relationships.” The plasticity of the brain offers some hope here. He documents casework with patients who recognize the dysfunctionality of their behavior patterns, and crafts strategies and mental training that seeks to develop the centers of moral reasoning in the order typically seen in children.
My sense is that the brain is an interface to our souls, rather than the actual seat of our reason. Working with that model, I have had some really surprising interactions with people that were considered by others to be hopelessly dangerous. However, I have no documentation of the outcomes.

Thanks for the Mystery explanation, Brian.
Yes, there is some very limited possibility of positive change in psychopaths who show signs of discomfort with themselves (extremely rare) or their life circumstances (less rare).
This is the crux of the problem: to desire change, we must experience lasting dissatisfaction with ourselves. Psychopaths don’t. They believe there is nothing wrong with them (e.g., red pillocks*); it is others (e.g., society, women) who are not only in the wrong, but are out to get them (paranoia is often associated with psychopathy). They cannot see that they are in error and experience the necessary dissatisfaction with themselves, because they do not possess the psychological organ which makes it possible: conscience.
In order to be dissatisfied with oneself, one must have a conscience which allows one to feel empathy for others, shame, and guilt. Without it, any life difficulties caused by one’s behavior (broken relationships, lost jobs, prison, etc.) will be seen as other people’s fault, and any discomfort with oneself, if at all experienced, will be shallow and fleeting at best.
Psychopaths are incapable of emotional development precisely because they lack conscience. This disability, or defect, renders them incapable of grasping higher values that make us human. Instead of values, they have goals; and those are primitive (sex, power, etc.) and invariably self-centered.
There are some behavioral interventions that have proven somewhat successful with incarcerated criminal psychopaths, but their effectiveness even in behavioral modification has not been widely confirmed; they do not translate into character transformation, but make the behavior of the psychopaths treated this way in prisons less violent and more agreeable as they learn how to earn rewards specified in those interventions (by being compliant and somewhat sociable, or just pretending so).
Tying it into your views somewhat, there must be reasons, including spiritual ones, why psychopathy has persisted in our species throughout generations; but speculating about those is a subject for another missive. Although I’m always up for idle (and not) speculations, I suspect our gracious hostess may not be pleased about taking over her blog in such unceremonious ways (too late?).
BTW, Cozolino’s work is very good, but even he cannot create something out of nothing. He’s admitted as much in that book when discussing Chuck.
*To be accurate, red pillocks flipped the script with regard to dissatisfaction with oneself: prior to inventing their red pill, many of them did experience some discomfort, as they should, that stemmed from being unable to fit in society, form healthy relationships, etc. But instead of taking a clue from that discomfort about the direction necessary for their emotional development, along with responsibility for it — which is what a emotionally healthy / normal person, one with a conscience, would do — they created an upside down ideology positing that their psychopathy is the right way, and the human values and ideals are in the wrong. Unable to grasp those values and ideals, they dismiss them as the Feminine Imperative, to better combine their moral blindness with their misogyny. As such, their beliefs solidify their dysfunction, instead of challenging it, which is not surprising if we remember that the lack of conscience makes any such challenges null.
Legitimizing individual psychopathy through ideological beliefs — red pill, in this case — and calling it the “revolutionary” truth is quite typical, actually, for psychopathic social movements. It is not new, but it is tragic all the same — particularly for those who are not fully psychopathic and are on the cusp, so to speak, between the egocentric primitivism of psychopathy and some glimmers of human values, but get caught in that comforting web of rationalizations and lies that push them toward full psychopathization, cheered on by bona fide psychopaths who front the movement.
