He's a semi-retired clinical psychologist, who's now 60, but has never married, and has only had a live in girlfriend for 3 years tops. Otherwise, he's a perpetual bachelor with regular periodic relationships which went nowhere after a year or two.
Today, he's still talking about soulmates and how two ppl together, can be greater than the sum of the two. WTF!
So from his perspective, even if Sex Robots were as realistic as in the original 'Blade Runner', since that was his generation's most talked about Noir Sci-Fi, since automatrons lacked "true" consciousness, he wouldn't want one, period!
For me, a person like him makes zero sense. For one, he's not getting any younger and two, no perfect wife is throwing herself into his lap. So why is he acting like he's 25, with all the time in the world ahead of him? Most ppl give up on 'love', in they haven't found it come age 45.

For a man, way past his prime, talking about soulmates and other such BS ... what will his life look like when he's 70+ and the hair coloring no longer masks the fact that he's over the hill and hasn't been able to secure a long term relationship, but is still talking like some idealistic bozo in his late 20s?

So he tops it off with the notion that playing with boobs don't solve anything.
This is the guy from my prior thread:
