A sex doll was so heavily molested by eager men it broke before anyone could actually use it. Or use it privately, anyway.
We're not entirely sure what happened to 'Samantha'. But its owner complained that the £3,000 robot was left "heavily soiled" after being exhibited at a tech fair.
Developer Sergi Santos, from Barcelona, Spain, says visitors to the Arts Electronica Festival in Linz treated the 'intelligent' sex doll "like barbarians", and added that two fingers were broken in the melee.
"The people mounted Samantha's breasts, her legs and arms," Sergi said. "Two fingers were broken. She was heavily soiled."
Sergi added that the robot had to be sent back in a parcel to Barcelona for repairs and cleaning after being left so filthy and broken by the never-ending male attention.
But said: "Samantha can endure a lot, she will pull through."
Not sure I could get a 3,000 pound robot up to my 3rd floor walk-up...

You must have been the source of the joke about the difference between Mick Jagger and a Scottish shepherd: One says "Hey, you, get offa my cloud." The other says "Hey, MacCleod, ..."

Just don't pick the ugly one. And for god's sake, use protection. Humans can impregnate sheep.

That's what's always puzzled me, I mean have you looked at Australian sheep? They're all bony and ragged and dirty, while NZ sheep are much better looking.

They're called 'women,' not 'sheep,' you insensitive clod.

Well, I guess if you swing that way you can always throw a fleece over her and have her make baa-ing noises. Just don't let anyone see you.

A sex doll is much better exercise and preparation for real sex than ol' Manuela is. Why not have both a realdoll and a real woman?
But unless you have that much money to throw away, is it worth it?

One of the benefits of a sex doll over a human prostitute, you can personally send its genitals through autoclave so that you know it's "clean".

What if the, um . . . how to put this nicely . . ., um, "critical parts" were easily and inexpensively 3D printed? Custom fit. The Burger King wouldn't have to wrap his whopper. Along with custom 3D printed boner drugs (see previous story [soylentnews.org]).
