There are many ways of deriving pleasure and with that comes an excitement to try something new. While trying to please oneself, people resort to different methods. To ease your efforts are the sex dolls which fulfill your need for a physical partner at that time. And with the advancing technology, you can choose your model for your utmost pleasure. And it would not be surprising if Henry, a soon to be launched sex doll, will become women’s best friend (with benefits). The 6 feet tall model with dark and brooding looks has a British accent and other than giving you pleasure, he can recite poetry for you!

Henry will flaunt his British accent and chat up with females using romantic phrases and love songs. So clearly there is a technologically facilitated wooing happening! The makers Realbotix are hoping that females will buy him in search of companionship. This sex robot is still being developed and has to be installed with robotic movements. There goes a common debate regarding the male domination in the sex dolls market but women too are opting to enjoy themselves with the help of sex toys. Henry sure will get takers from women who seek great companionship in bed.

As we talk of Henry, it is also important to look at the benefits of using sex robots. There goes a common debate about how these synthetic dolls can affect relationships in future, till the point if they will replace the need for a partner. Let us look at some of the pros and cons of sex robots.

Pros of Sex Dolls:

• Easy accessibility: Once you own a sex robot, you are going to have it readily available to you. You can always keep it charged and then enjoy at your own will and derive pleasure as and when you want, how many ever times you want!
• Improves performance: With the help of a sex robot, one can practice on their sexual skills. One can learn about their own shortcomings and overcome them by practicing with a robot. There is no judgment here. Plus, if you are someone who doesn’t open up to someone for sex easily, a sex robot can help you build that comfort.
• No emotional attachments: If all you care about is the pleasure and need no love involvement then a sex doll is an ideal partner. For those who do not want any emotional attachments, indulge yourself with a sex doll. No complaints, no demands and yet pleasure!
• No irritation of a condom: Guys usually do not prefer using a condom and like to go raw. But there is always a risk of pregnancy and they have to opt for a condom. With a sex robot, there’s no chance of pregnancy and no need to use a condom. So it is definitely pleasing for both the genders.
• No risk of STDs: Since there is not a real person involved, there is no risk of getting any sexually transmitted diseases.

Cons of Sex Dolls:

• Costly: Getting yourself a sex robot is no mean feat financially unless you are really well to do! A sex doll can get costly, more so if you want customizations to it. There are some models where you can replace certain parts, select the colour from hair to eye, etc but of course, it comes at a cost. Not everyone can afford to buy a sex doll.
• Social isolation: For long there is a debate that a sex doll can lead to social isolation. When someone might get used to deriving pleasure with the help of technology, there is a possibility of them getting away from the social contact. And it is definitely not a good sign for a primarily social animal.
• Can affect relationships: From social isolation, it can also damage your ability to have a convincing relationship in future. Too much dependence on sex robot can take one away from the feeling of intimacy and interactions.
• Battery dead: Although it is always advised to have your sex robot’s batteries charged, you could be in some trouble if you want to get into the act and the battery dies. That is going to be a literal turn off!

All of this point out to how technology is entering the personal space so well. A few years back no one would have thought of robots for sex, for deriving equal pleasure but today there is a risk of even an imbalance. More and more depending on sex robots can adversely affect human relationships and all equations in general.
