“I’m tired of using technology, why don’t you sit down on top of me? I’m tired of using technology, I need you right in front of me.” ~ Ayo Technology ~ Lyrics by 50 Cent & Justin Timberlake ~

As technology continues to aggressively permeate every aspect of our modern-day Western lives, including our closely held sexual expressions, could a sex-tech backlash be just around the corner? From cool vibes that seamlessly integrate into our ultra-slick MP3 players to the underground obsession with “fucking-machines,” it’s becoming harder and harder for the average Joe/Jane to think about sex without thinking about the battery-powered accessories that almost always go with it these days.

It’s undeniable technology has the power to enhance our sexual pleasure and to prolong our active sexuality well into our “Golden” years. Vibrators not only make orgasms easier for women to achieve, they actually help keep genitals healthy and sensitized, while the use of chemical male erectile aids is perhaps alarmingly pervasive.

But How Far is Too Far?

Just how willing are we to let pills and gizmos dictate the course of our supposedly loving and affectionate sexual encounters? To a certain extent sexual technology puts an unbalanced amount of focus on the physical aspects of our sexuality, often to the unfortunate detriment of the more elusive and emotional components – the very things that seem to give sex its magic. Sure mind-blowing orgasms are great, but isn’t the unguarded sentimentality in your lover’s eyes at that very moment just as important for a truly fulfilling sexual experience? Of course the answer completely depends on your sexual beliefs, but let’s take it one step further…

Would You Buy the Perfect Lover if You Could?

Let’s pretend we’re 100 years into the future and the ultimate sex toy is on the market – a fully functioning human-like fantasy machine. Come on, admit you’ve thought about it! He or she knows every trick in the ultra-mega-super Kama Sutra 3D holographic book and can rock your world for weeks on end. Physically perfect and designed to your tastes, would you ever dream of taking another human lover again, or would this gorgeous robot suffice? Sure, it doesn’t love you, even if you do fall hopelessly in love with it – but would it matter?

Now Let’s Go to 2020…

As the yummy video suggests, this set of sexual tools includes a pair of I-Move-You-Feel-It gloves that allows you to manipulate your partner’s tactile senses without actually touching them. For those kinky readers out there who enjoy a little denial/frustration play like I do, this toy sounds like a sensual dream…But only as a teaser. After this kind of foreplay I’ll crave the real thing. I’ll go crazy with the need to smell him, to feel his tongue, to see the lust he has for me in his eyes…

And Finally My Lover Will Prevail

Because in that moment when logical thought stops and instinct takes over, even the most advanced sex toy will be cast aside to make room for the one desire it just can’t fill – my very human need to connect with someone who also needs me.
