On Digg, SaMdeR wrote, "I have a robotic hand. Is that considered cheating?"
Gryffin wrote, "How is the robot programmed? Sexbot only, so it's just an animate doll that can grip on and participate (like the one in Serenity), or will it be an interactive thing so there's some possibility of emotional attachment? From the relationship studies/articles that seem to come out weekly, significant others tend to be more upset with emotional cheating than just physical release."
Sonic wrote, "The real question is: Is it bestiality if you have sex with a robot dog?"

Hell, having sex with a real woman isn't cheating if your not hiding it, so why would having sex with a robot hooker be????? Cheating is about lying not about who are what your doing!!!

It is only cheating if you were already dating/married to a robot in the first place.

The rules will be the same as with porn.
Some women consider their partner's viewing porn as cheating. Some don't. Depends on the circumstance.
The example they place of a robot that looks like someone, is the same as masturbating to someones picture or memory.
Porn, hookers (robot or non robot) are a way of getting sex satisfaction. They are needed only if your relationship is not really fulfilling in that regard. So, if you need them, you clearly are a step away of really cheating.

If cutting a hole in the ass end of a smirf doll and going to town on it while you shout obscenities isn't cheating, then i really don't think sex with a robot is cheating. and even if it is, who cares, just dont get caught...

No way is it cheating and if the fairer sex disagrees just point out their addiction to B.O.B.'s then tell them look you straight in the face and say that sex with a pro-bot cheating
P.S. A.I. would have been much better if the movie focused on this discussion
