Nylig er det regulert boligtomter på Husøy i Senja. Nå er tomtene opparbeidet og de fleste tomtene bebygges rimelig snart. Når de tomtene er bebygd er det ikke mulig å bygge mer boliger på Husøya. Videoen viser blant annet disse siste boligtomtene. #husøy #lenvik #senja #nordnorge #bolig #boligmarked #northernnorway #norge #samfunnsøkonomi (ved Husøy, Senja)

Kristin Husøy is good, but the whole “somebody pray for me” thing is just really not my cup of tea, and that’s basically the only lyric.

Would You Feel Jealous if Your Partner Got a Sex Robot?

I get asked about the future of sex a lot, and one of the topics that often comes up is how robots are going to change our intimate lives and relationships. Admittedly, there’s not a lot of research out there on this subject yet because sex robots are still in their infancy, so it’s hard to make concrete predictions. However, there has been some work looking at people’s attitudes toward sex robots and the results suggest that many people aren’t enthusiastic about the idea of sex robots—and, in particular, the idea of their partner using one. 

In a recent study, researchers surveyed 277 adults (average age of 27; 90% of whom were heterosexual) about their attitudes toward futuristic sex robots. They used an experimental design in which half of the participants were asked about a “sex robot” that “looks and feels just like humans,” whereas the others were asked about “a platonic love robot” with no physical body that is capable of providing “meaningful romantic and friendly relation to a human.” 

They were then asked how they felt about the idea of their partner owning such a robot, as well as how they think their partner would feel if the shoe were on the other foot (i.e., would your partner be cool with you owning one of these robots?)

In general, participants thought the idea of both robots sounded realistic; however, while there was quite a bit of variability in people’s feelings, attitudes toward both robots were negative overall.

Overall, men reported more positive attitudes toward robots than did women, but this was mainly true for the sex robot. When looking at the platonic love robot, men’s and women’s attitudes were fairly similar.

Regardless of robot type, men expected to feel less jealous if their partner got one compared to women. Also women reported higher feelings of jealousy about a sex robot compared to a love robot, which is contrary to what the researchers had expected to find (some past jealousy research has found that women report more emotional than sexual jealousy, which was the basis for their prediction).

When thinking about their partner owning a robot, men reported similar levels of dislike for both the sex and love robot; by contrast, women reported more dislike for their partner using a sex robot than a love robot.  

Lastly, when thinking about how your partner would respond if you owned a sex robot, men expected similar levels of dislike from their partner for both types of robots, whereas women anticipated more partner dislike if they used a sex robot than a love robot.  

Of course, these findings are limited because they’re based on how people feel about hypothetical sex/love robots. Most people just don’t have any personal experience with this technology yet. Also, people may have ideas of how they’d feel about robots that are shaped by popular media depictions, where it’s much more common to see female rather than male sex robots and where using these robots often ends in disaster (ever see Ex Machina or Westworld?) 

That said, these results point to important differences in how people feel about robots based on robot type (sex vs. love) and an individual’s gender. They also suggest that robots may eventually become a potential source of conflict in relationships to the extent that partners have different feelings about them. And perhaps this conflict will be more pronounced in mixed-sex (male/female) relationships due to differences in men’s and women’s attitudes, but less so in same-sex relationships (where partners’ attitudes may be more in line with each other). 

An interesting line of inquiry for future research would be to ask how people feel about using sex/love robots with a partner, as opposed to only one partner using them. When robots are framed as a substitute or replacement for a real-life partner, that may evoke more negative attitudes and jealousy. But what about when robots become a complement to a couple’s sex life, offering a new way for partners to interact together? For example, are people in relationships more open to the idea of robot threesomes rather than solo robot use?  

Also, what if sex/love robots were framed as a way of fixing a sexual or relationship problem? For example, if two partners want drastically different amounts of sex, could a sex robot be a viable solution to this problem and potentially reduce conflict and prevent infidelity? Or what about using sex/love robots in long-distance relationships where partners see each other very infrequently as a way of providing more sexual and intimate connection?   

So what do you think? How would you feel about the idea of using a sex vs. love robot yourself? And how would you feel if your partner used one?

Husøy i Senja 😍🇳🇴

[balkanballad]

I don’t want to make more video posts, so here are some more honourable mentions for my national finals 2020 the ones that got away list:

Only Dream - Inger (Estonia) (very cute song)

Beautiful Lie - Jaagup Tusik (Estonia)

I’m Sorry, I Messed Up - Uudo Seep (Estonia) (very relatable)

Rainbow - Kim Rysstad (Norway) (feels a bit old school eurovision, but I personally like that. also, it kinda reminds me of Estonia this year)

Pray For Me - Kristin Husøy (Norway) (I was praying that Ulrikke would win, but this was a very nice second place)

Over the Sea - Magnus Bokn (Norway) (cute! the line: ‘will we ever figure out where we belong?’ really hits a spot in my heart)

Mais real que o amor - Tomás Luzia (Portugal) (Elisa was my fave even before the shows because I love her song, but I also had Tomás already saved on Spotify. it reminds me a lot of the old 2000s songs and yes, I already said that, but: I like the old vibes) 

Kolači - Marko Marković (Serbia) (I am still convinced that Beovizija was rigged even before the shows. the PR teams and everyone in the media was very obvious and after seeing everyone’s performances, I was very sure that they were trying very hard to make everything else bad. yes, I don’t trust RTS. anyway, I liked this. it wasn’t my fave, but catchy and fun)

Nobody - Klara Hammarström (Sweden) (a bop. Meghan Trainor-ish but better imo)

Bulletproof - Dotter (Sweden) (yeah, this would have been amazing. we had very cool second places this year, which is also kinda sad...)
