How do you define cheating?

How do you define cheating in a relationship?

When robotics advances a bit more would having sex with a robot be cheating?

[LPMiller]

overly complicated forms of masturbation are not cheating.

Is "cheating" with a blow up doll cheating?

[attgig]

would a 3way with a robot be a legit 3way?

[DarkFury]

Robot = sex toy = self stimulation = not cheating ;)

[cruelpupet]

right now a sex robot would probably be considered masturbation, but what about when they advance enough that the robot is indistinguishable from a GF or BF?

[mojo]

if you do it so much you neglect your irl partner, it's cheating.

it's also gross.

[The Happy Squirrel]

generally if you ahve to ask, its cheating, generally

[chrissy]

If you have to go to other places to get something your SO cannot give you, it is cheating.

I would have to think if I didn't know about said sex toy robot, I would be a bit put off by it becuase my SO wouldn't have talked to me about a need he had.

I guess it would be the same thing as the "over the internet sex" where you can control the girl wearing a strap-on on the other end.

I would concider that cheating, but the girl is real... robot is not. Hmm... Nope. To me still the same.

[ArkiStan]

if you're having sex with a robot, whether you are cheating should be the least of your concerns.

[LPMiller]

I think that depends on the robot. A rhoomba, yeah, you have problems. Cherry 2000? You're main problem would be battery life, I'd think.

[cruelpupet]

First. No I am not having sex with a robot. I saw this question on ars or gizmodo, or somewhere and I thought it was a really good question because of below....

So chrissy, if/when you use a vibrator alone, is that cheating?

[mojo]

i dunno whether to laugh or cringe

[johnnymk]

So if someone likes variety and are into robots, does that mean that they would need a variety of robots?

[chrissy]

So masturbation is cheating to you?

No, because you, yourself is not another place or someone else. But if you are in a relationship, and have good communication there shouldn't be a need for masturbation. Unless you are deployed halfway around the world.

I know what toys Donnie and i have. And i tend not to have to use them alone. But that is the type of relationship we have.

You are going from a toy that you masterbate with to a toy that is a robot - which would replace a human partner, not just the fun bits. I really see a difference between the two. The robot (assumptions here)being programable, vocal, and human like. There are some wicked robots being developed in Japan right now and not only for sex purposes. These would go beyond just a toy. This would be a really unhealthy relationship with a computer.

[DarkFury]

Well there are those times when "she has a headache" and you just need to crank one off. :heh:

[LPMiller]

I can't agree with this at all. It seems almost like making the wife wear a chastity belt. Maybe you're sick. Maybe you're too tied for group participation. Maybe you finally got 5 mins alone after dealing with the kids all day. I dunno. But I certainly am not going to put limits on someones "personal time". Frankly, allowing for that is also part of a good relationship and good communication.

That basically sums up what I was going to say to chrissy

[cheapie]

:heh: this thread is awesome!

Ahh, I was just curious of the limits you may or may not set. So I guess you would find "looking at random pr0n" as in (not naked girls that you actually talk to on the net) as a bad thing .. :) ..

But anywho, yeah, typically it's probably not necessary, but some guys at certain times "need" it a lot more then a Girl wants to "give it" .. And it can help them out if they don't want to give it all the time.

I guess you could discuss it with them if you have a pretty open relationship, but I'm sure a lot of guys don't feel that comfortable at least in an "early stage" relationship discussing that.

But I would find it weird if I walked in the closet one day and found like a 12" "Prick" and Balls with Suction! .. lol..

(Sorry kind of a long story.. I was cleaning the Kitchen one day, and throwing away receipts and I found one for a "Prick" spelled with a D and not PR.. and Balls with Suction.. 12" .. ) Well I knew it wasn't mine.. And I was pretty sure it wasn't Roommate A's.. So after I asked him, I tacked it onto Roommate B's bulletin Board.. (The receipt not the 'toy') .. Anywho.. later on the receipt was just gone with no talk of it.. So I brought it up to him out of sheer male a-hole'ness.. And he said he bought it as a joke to glue to some guys window at a prank. But we're still pretty sure that's not why. . But too each his own I guess.. Ooops , long pretty off-topic story.. Sorry.

By the way I think a "robot" doll could be cheating.. specially if its pretty "realistic" like they predict.

[Jeffbx]

You guys are weird. OK, here's a weirder one for you:

Assuming that meeting yourself in the past won't cause a paradox that leads to a rift in the space/time continuum: If you had a time machine & went back in time and had sex with yourself, would that be incest or masturbation?

[mojo]

No, because you, yourself is not another place or someone else. But if you are in a relationship, and have good communication there shouldn't be a need for masturbation. Unless you are deployed halfway around the world.

i agree for the most part. altho i think this is a bit strict in terms of regular masturbation, i would think that jumping on a robot is different than using the hand or a simple vibrator.

[cheapie]

i'm a dude...dude. why would i want to have sex w/another dude?

[chrissy]

I can't agree with this at all. It seems almost like making the wife wear a chastity belt. Maybe you're sick. Maybe you're too tied for group participation.

You can't agree that masturbation is not cheating?

Or you can't agree with the communication part?


I never said anything about putting limits on anyone's "personal time".

[chrissy]

Ahh, I was just curious of the limits you may or may not set. So I guess you would find "looking at random pr0n" as in (not naked girls that you actually talk to on the net) as a bad thing .. :) ..

No, I don't. Did I word that wrong? This is weird. I say No, sex with yourself isn't a bad thing because you aren't with anyone else and I got some weird answers back :confused:

[gwilks98]

How do you define cheating in a relationship?

Have you been watching AI again?

[chrissy]

Okay, once more,

masturbation is fine.

masturbation with a human or a life like human robot is bad.

What I said about communication and the need for masturbation, all I was saying is to talk about sex with whomever you are with. If you aren't satisfied and your SO is always too tired, has a headache, there is something wrong. It could be as simple as putting in 12 hr days at work. But it could also be a multitude of other things. Things you might and can help with. There might be medical issues. Hormone issues.

It could be that they don't know how to say you are lousy in bed and need to work on your skills.

I am not saying that the SO has to be on call for sex. Or has to put out when she/he doesn't want to. But if you are going that long without sex, something else might be wrong.

[cheapie]

well put. but if you're doing it and always fantasizing about someone other than your SO, that's not good.

[mojo]

No, I don't. Did I word that wrong? This is weird. I say No, sex with yourself isn't a bad thing because you aren't with anyone else and I got some weird answers back :confused:
i think they're being technical about it being "masturbation" and a "masturbation is masturbation" type thing.

i guess what it boils down to is that we should all picture our SO doing a robot, and then decide if we like that image. if not, then we have the answer. i guess it's still a YMMV thing tho :shrug:

[cheapie]

my wife with a female robot? hmmm....

Let's ignore the robot for a moment. Masturbation in and off itself is not cheating. Sometimes, you don't want sex, but you want 'me' time. Neither my wife or I have a problem with this. I don't think it would even occur to us to worry about it.

Now, if masturbation is taking the place of spouse relations on a constant basis that it gets in the way of spousal relations, well, that's a problem. But as a uh...supplemental log, if you will, no, I don't see the issue.

[cheapie]

how am i supposed to ignore a robot that's trying to get it on with me??? :naughty:

Tell them your hard drive is offline... :D

[cheapie]

hard disk error?

hard disk error?
Ewww... ED eh?

Or in a robot's case... CD.

Cialis might be the key for a hard reboot. :D

[Maarchk]

Unlike computers, women reject a 3 1/2 " floppy...

If you'd tell your SO what you did, and she'd be fine with it, then it's not a problem. If you could never admit to it because of guilt, than i think it's an issue.
Thus it's adaptable for all people. Some people are strict and think masturbating is bad cause you are not 'sharing' with your SO. Others say, if you can get a cute boy/girl to take care of you, good for you. And most people are some where in the middle of all that. Definitely a case by case basis.
I dont think i've ever stopped and had a talk about it with an SO but i follow the rule that i can own up to anything i do so i'm pretty sure it's ok. I couldn't own up to saying I slept with another girl or I got bored and banged a robot. I think that would end the relationship on many levels.

Unless you have changed your gender in the meantime, it's gay sex. However, we won't tell if you don't.

I'd like to throw in twincest and clone love as possible terms:

I'm gonna have to agree with this point of view. If you and your SO are both comfortable with the issue (no matter what the issue is) then it isn't cheating (ex: I don't consider swingers cheating on each other). If you or them are against something and the other does it then that is cheating.
