This is a crazy story!

Mail Order/ Store Bought Sex Dolls Are  No competition without authentic Orgasms  or Excellent Acting.

If you don't believe it just ask him. I am sure he'll be more than happy to tell you how he is an expert in human to doll sexual proficiency. I bet you he will even tell you about how some doll told him exactly how to satisfy your doll, with or with out tipping her of course. lol

but to each, their own.

An orgasm from a mechanical device is, by definition, a fake, because its a mere simulation.  I couldn't do it anymore than you could.  It would come from whatever is programmed into the device.  I hope this was just some of your tongue-in-check wise cracking.  Otherwise, its pretty stupid.  

I much prefer a living, breathing, warm blooded woman... and sometimes more than one. 😎

That said, I do have to concede they "might" have a point. I mean there are several guys on TER who I am sure have never been with a woman that they weren't paying for the privilege, they are simply that fucking lame and socially awkward, but at least their sexual experiences have been with a living, breathing human being. I can only imagine some day in the future if some socially awkward person had "learned" about sex only through having fucked a very realistic looking sex doll for years and then finally had the opportunity to have sex with a real woman. I can see many potential dangers in that scenario.  

On one side, the Canadian venue that has been offering sex dolls shows a rate of $140 an hour on their website. For those on a budget and need some outlet other than their hand, it might be an alternative to $300 an hour and up rates that are becoming more prevalent.

His stock-in-trade is a quick, rhetorical thrust that, on reflection, doesn't hold water.  But when you point it out he calls you stupid.  But it's all good because then you get to whack him again.  If you want to shut him up, try sending him some of these....He falls for it every time!

Of course even Quad is smarter than Jake,

Some gals give off a scent, and I'm not talking perfume either,  that drives me crazy.

1) cdl may well be smarter than Jake.  But he's definitely smarter than Wu, who can't even use an abacus.
2) Quad is only smarter than becky, and that only barely.
3) "pedantic and literal" to you means actually using the  English language correctly and not twisting it beyond all description.
4) I'm "boorish?" LMAO.  Not hardly.  THIS is boorish.
But it's so you.

Quad too much credit.  Unless she gets wet, he can't find the hole.  How can that be smarter than Jake?  Jake is a really active fucker, like you and me.  Quad doesn't do it often enough to remember what its like.  I heard he shaves one leg at night so it will feel like he's in bed with a woman.  Lol

phero'moon'es  when she is bending over.  

If you really want a scent, there's nothing like fish. lol

Anybody remember when you could go for a private lingerie show? (I never did one of those; I had TER and better options. )  And decades before that, the private photo shoots? Basically, you show up at the studio, select a model and she provides a private lingerie show in a private room. SOMETIMES, other things might happen depending on the degree of personal attraction.  According to the old 1950s TV shows, there used to be a thing where you show up at the studio (in the back of a sleezy pawn shop or store), choose a model, borrow or rent a camera from the house and go to a private room to take some pictures.  
.
Today, have live models at the studios to assist the customers with the sex dolls. If there is the need for a greater level of assistance, the customer should tip the human hostess accordingly.  
.
Will it sink or will it float?

Of course no one goes to any of them to take pics, but that's what they still call themselves. In Dallas they seem to run the gamut from a couple that offer BBBJ only for less than $200, up to some "higher end" places that offer GFE at pretty much standard agency incall rates of around $300 hr.

Maybe I should dig out my old Kodak Brownie and get some fresh Size 127 film! I think I have some old newspapers in the basement so I can look up the addresses of the places that used to offer "modeling" and see if they are still around!  
.
Maybe some entrepreneurial Providers can help to SELL these dolls. In-home demos. On-site personal training on how to use the dolls. (Hay! Anybody have a personal trainer at the gym? Why not at the doll house?)  
.
Actually, I just wish we could go back to the good old days (pre FOSTA SESTA TER days, not Kodak Brownie days).

but don't knock the "modeling studios" until you've tried one. There are a few in Dallas that before FOSTA/SESTA managed to get some very good reviews.  The same with AMP's, people here are always looking down their nose at AMPs, but I have not only gotten GFE at AMPs, but I have even gotten a few actual GF's from them.

Do you notice any difference between the scent of women on the pill and the scent of women who don't take it? (I do, and it sometimes kills the buzz for me.)

but there are a few gals I see who are post-menopause, and I presume don't use the pill.

Do do do do Do do do do Do do do do ....

Women who aren't using it smell better to me, but I agree with you that it's pretty foolish to rely on condoms alone. In a long-term relationship I'd probably offer to pay for a copper IUD or something comparable.

idea for inmates in prisons.  It would eliminate MUCH of the trauma smaller guys go through when they first get their butt hole stretched by a horny lifer.  

change some peoples minds

T-ara is pretty good, but I knew TWO Taras. One Tara was accurately described as one of the most beautiful K-Girls in NYC; she was a very pleasant hostess, too. The other Tara was almost as pretty but just as enjoyable as a companion. We made our own music and it was not robotic at all. (I knew at least one other Tara but she was not a K-Girl.)  
.  
So T-ara can not make me forget or change my mind about Tara, nor Tara, nor the other Tara.

But fucking an inanimate piece of rubber is just pointless in my mind.

LOL. Yes, Tara was a favorite of mine (probably one of the Tara's you are talking of).

“It’s a red flag for the sex work industry that doll brothels are becoming popular,” Diamonds said. “It’s an epidemic that will plague the sex industry if we allow these places to proliferate."

TV would have doomed movies and the theater, as well as attendance at sporting events.  Last I checked, all three of those enterprises were doing well.

Ha! Now legal prostitutes are feeling the pain of automation.  

no matter how normal in the distant future.

maybe there was some theism in it.

crazy bears. At least it's clean paper.

But the Xenomorph from Alien; now that's something to give kids nightmares!

you can't beat the Pythons....
