Oh, I'm not being blind about it. Sex robots will happen and there are people waiting around for that to happen, there is no doubt in my mind. But there actually are male robots in existance, just no male actroids and most of them are made from the shoulders up and people tend to be creeped out by them more than the females. And Hell, maybe that's because of sex, I don't know. But the fact is that females are less intimidating. (I've never heard this as a reason, but another upside to female robots is that they're smaller than males, and thus lighter. Not to mention males have much more prominent hands and hands are REALLY hard to make right.)
