Unfair to men
girls and young women play with dolls to learn social skills, to learn how to associate with others.
boys, both by virtue of being discouraged from playing with dolls, and due to their lack of interest in the first place to play with dolls, are at a disadvantage when it comes to learning how to socialize as compared to girls.
real life is risk prone-- many less socially adept guys prefer being alone rather than trying to risk further ostrasizing by the society when they attempt to make some connection with someone who interests them.
rather than having some empathy for these men, it is quite universal among women to label these men pathetic, losers, creeps, etc, etc, ad nauseam.
On the issue of dolls not talking back, sure, there is probably that element to some extent, but I can point to scads of women who have given up on guys and taken up residence with cats. Cats, in the same way, fill that same role of uncomplaining accompaniments that are far preferable for these women than are the men around them.
Is it more pathetic to be someone who never learned how to be social with the opposite sex or to be someone who damn well knows how to socialize but has such an impatient and dismissive attitude toward the opposite sex that cats are preferable. I call the cat ladies more pathetic.
I hope I live long enough to see fully humanlike sex bots with intelligence built in. Or at least a passable virtual bot that is indistinguishable from a real woman.
You can bet, the moment thay make men dolls like this, there will be a cult of women seeking out such pleasures too-- even if it is merely for the pure visceral fuckability factor rather than for social drinks and carousing.
