Inventor unveils $7,000 talking sex robot


Las Vegas, Nevada (CNN) -- To some men, she might seem like the perfect woman: She's a willowy 5 feet 7 and 120 pounds. She'll chat with you endlessly about your interests. And she'll have sex whenever you please -- as long as her battery doesn't run out.

Meet Roxxxy, who may be the world's most sophisticated talking female sex robot. For $7,000, she's all yours.

"She doesn't vacuum or cook, but she does almost everything else," said her inventor, Douglas Hines, who unveiled Roxxxy last month at the Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Lifelike dolls, artificial sex organs and sex-chat phone lines have been keeping the lonely company for decades. But Roxxxy takes virtual companionship to a new level.

Powered by a computer under her soft silicone "skin," she employs voice-recognition and speech-synthesis software to answer questions and carry on conversations. She even comes loaded with five distinct "personalities," from Frigid Farrah to Wild Wendy, that can be programmed to suit customers' preferences.

Who would choose, Frigid Farrah? Man, it never ceases to amaze me what nerds will do to get some. You know this inventor never kissed a girl before.

Very disturbing. She looks mildly retarded.

At the Folsom Street Fair last year I saw some sex dolls that were so unbelievably lifelike I did a double take.

Then I saw this chubby naked guy tied to a post getting his ass whipped tender by a man covered head to toe in fishnet stalkings.

I'm all for sex dolls. Clearly if that guy didn't have them then he would be a repeat sex offender.

If they could fix her to vacuum and do laundry & dishes I'd buy one.

I wonder if you'd set yours on Frigid Farrah so you could then, uh, defy her wishes.

(Rape doll! Cough cough)

She's not very easy on the eyes, though, is she? Can't they make a pretty one?

Obviously he's modeled her after some poor female he's been hopelessly obsessed with. Sorta like the dude on Seinfeld who built the Elaine mannequin.

Octo, the one at Folsom was drop-dead gorgeous. I slipped my number in her pocket but she never called. Sigh.
