Bizarre! One in six Britons prefer sex with robots

Darpan News Desk Darpan, 19 May, 2014 12:56 AM
    You may call it bizarre but a section of British people love the idea of having sex with a robot.
     
    According to a latest survey by University of Middlesex, 17 percent of British people would opt for sex with a robotic machine.
     
    Roughly one in six respondents would “have sex with an android” and another one in three (29 percent) were 'OK' with others getting down with robots, the survey revealed.
     
    About four in 10 were creeped out by the idea, and another 14 percent said robots should not be used for sex, a Guardian report said.
     
    The survey asked 2,000 people their thoughts on a range of robot-related questions.
     
    One in three believed robots could “spell the end of the human race”, while about the same number said a robot could steal his or her job, the report added.

    Opinion: Trash is not ugly
    How would it look if the worn out motherboard of a computer becomes your coaster or the headlight of a bike turns into your desk lamp or tyre tube used as a wallet and the door of an old refrigerator as the centre table of your room? This is not wild imagination but creative ways of using scrap and making it look chic.
