The future of sex

Monday, June 15, 2009

One day, large-boobed robots will answer all our sex questions. Until then, these brainiacs will do.

What's the next big thing in sex? Ron Jeremy’s son?
Drug companies will be very happy to invent new sex-enhancing drugs. Viagra has been doing a good job for men, but I think they’re looking at the development of a new drug for women, how to turn women on, really get them to be orgasmic.

So we’ll be doing it better and for longer?
Some people are looking for that kind of magic cure. From my experience in seeing clients, we have a strange phenomenon of people abstaining from sex – couples that have passed the honeymoon stage and just don’t want to get engaged in sexual activity.

Freaks. Will there be an increase in online sex?
Yes. That’s what comes with modern technology. We are even talking about smell now through the internet. It’s scary. Currently there are two things happening – we have more people having sex in front of the webcam, and there’s all sorts of software coming out that enables people to have virtual sex.

So, in 100 years, will we be having sex with robots?
I think so. They don’t have emotion. You won’t have to negotiate when to go to bed. You just program it and have it any time you want. To some people it will be a big advantage, particularly those people who have very poor social skills.

Will STIs become more virulent or will we be able to wipe them out?
They’re going to stay with us for a period of time until one day when people have a robot. Then they can do it with the robot. Just don’t share your robot with somebody else. It’ll only be for personal use, otherwise you’ll catch it again.
