Someone is going to end up dating a robot before all this is over, and tumblr is going to lose their fucking mind and lavish all sorts of praise on ol stabby for being a fucking genius.

Jeph has spent infinitely more time focusing on the daily struggles, prejudices, and all around reality of being one of his fictional AI Robots than he has on the reality of life for Claire and other Transgender individuals. Why does tumblr slobber over this?
>>77790022
Because tumblr only cares about trans people if they start with vaginas.

Is that a joke? Trans men are traitors
>>77789690
They don't care about robots, robots allow you to talk about prejudice, discrimination, etc without having to actually pick a race or population group. They serves as medium for everything sjw loves so much without the risk of misrepresenting any of them. But they don't care about this. They want a character to self insert.

True.
A man trying to pass as a woman is looked on with abject revulsion by women and utter contempt by men.
A woman trying to pass as male is more likely to be pitied by women and grudgingly admired by men.
Many men, if they found out one of their male friends or acquaintances was a female, would proceed to hit on them.

everyone knows the robots win in the end. It's like sympathizing with the America-bound pilgrims
>>77792661
But trans men are hairier than I am

After reading this about 20 times, all I can come up with is:
What?
No, they'd flip out about sex robots and say they were misogynist social constructs.
>>77789690
I just watched time of eve and this shit happens.
>>77793414
I think they already have
Clang clang clang.
I always wondered, why are there robots in QC?
>>77793600
Because PA has Div and Fruit Fucker, so Jeph decided to give Martin a walking-talking-crude-joke-making piece of technology as well, and it evolved into literal robots from there.
>>77790022
Because the reality of life for trans individuals is depressing. He could write the robots as having literally the exact same struggles as trans folk and it would be better received.
>>77793852
I remember when somebody tried to pull that shit with a talking dog and everybody laughed at the artist.
>>77793600
Because in the early 00s, all Webcomics set in a mundane setting had some kind of non-mundane sidekick.
>>77794857
That's because it was a dog, and it kissed a little boy and was generally retarded.
This shit with robots would basically be Bicentennial Man
>>77789690
I say it should be the blueberry love muffin.
>>77795475
>>77793414
Could this be any more cringe-worthy?
>>77793852
Robots suffering prejudice don't give as much "share" as cute trans do.
>>77793414
They already do over sex dolls.
>>77793414
Meh they'd just be pissed they they'd both enjoy sex and be smarter than meatbags.
