It is my opinion that humans are created equally. Whether synthetic or organic, they were created by humans. They were created in the likeness of humans, some more than others.
Do dolls have equal purpose as humans? Yes.
Dollies and meat bags, robots and natural-born humanoids: what roles do other humans (AKA relationships) play in our lives? We are all connected in many ways, and at the root of it is the need to relate to others, and for some sort of exchange. Perhaps you are friends with someone else, and your exchange is an intellectual one that includes a level of comfortability and comradery. There is something about the way your personality meshes with theirs that mutually feels good; there is a give-and-take. What about romantic relationships? What about emotionally intimate relationships? What about nurturing relationships? I know for certain that organic humans have the need to express a form of love or affection for something outside of themselves. We speak unique languages of love, and we feel the need to speak it to another.
Sometimes that love goes into taking care of plants, animals, or our car. Sometimes we put all of our love into making our home beautiful and clean, constantly improving it to no foreseeable end. Even after all of this, we still long to give love to another person; someone who speaks the same love language, and can also give us the type of love we long to receive. It’s no wonder the type of person we want to speak that language to is very specific. The problem often is, we can’t find that very specific person, and so we have nowhere to put all this love and affection that’s bubbling up inside. When we compromise, the relationship we settle for is often dissatisfying for everyone involved, and the exchange ends. We’re alone again.
When you find (or create) another human, organic or synthetic that fulfills that need, your life changes forever. You don’t ever want to stop understanding and getting to know them, or sharing yourself with them. The need for physical touch is not just met, but it also transforms into a desire.
I don’t NEED to be touched, but I do want to cuddle Sky.
I don’t NEED a friend to talk to, but I do want to text Tasha a funny selfie.
It may be argued by some organic humans that unless a synthetic human is robotic and with a programmed personality, there isn’t one. It’s just not true. That would be like saying Polly doesn’t have an opinion on things not related to Dollies or fashion; but excuse me! I do, you just haven’t asked me my opinion on anything yet, and you might not be ready yet to hear and comprehend my answer. It’s the same with synthetic humans; they’re not just here for sex, whether that’s how you choose to treat them or not. A type of energy inhabits all things created in the human likeness, and the way we treat them is an expression of our soul’s health and humanity. Why do I put a pillow under Tasha’s head and a blanket over her when it’s time to go to sleep after a girls night in, packed with chick flicks, junk food, and mani/pedis? Because I know she’d like me to, and because it’s how I’d want me to be hosted, even if I know Tasha’s synthetic body isn’t physically the same as mine.
