History Main / Robosexual

[[AC:Anime]]
* This was presented as a significant social problem in the world of ''{{Eve no Jikan}}''. This was most explicitly explored with [[spoiler: Koji]], whose mistress was unhealthily obsessed with him, and [[spoiler:Rina]], who was illegally modified to be capable of sex. Amusingly enough, [[spoiler:Koji and Rina end up in a relationship, each believing the other is human.]]

.

** Barcley uses the holodeck to make out with the Goddess of Empathy, e.g. Counselor Troi. She is not amused.
* ''StarTrekVoyager''. In "Human Error" Seven of Nine gets involved with a holodeck Chakotay.

** The post-resurrection episode "Proposition Infinity" deals with the controversial issue of [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything robosexual marriage]]. Played with in that human-human gay marriage is perfectly fine in the 31st century, making it a case of AesopAmnesia.

* The premise of the ero-manga ''{{Petit Roid 3}}''.

** ** In the manga, at least. This plot point does seem to be virtually absent from the anime: [[spoiler:Dragonfly did touch Chi there when he activated her after he abducted her, and when Chii (or was it Freya?) awoke, she didn't lose her memory at all (except of this particular specific event itself), she just went homicidally berzerk, stating that only her Special Someone could touch her, but since Dragonfly wasn't that person, he never should have even tried. She then proceeded to beat him with a suprise-set of hidden tentacles appendages that suddenly appeared from her back, ''seriously'', and she would most likely have killed him if Hideki hadn't arrived in time]].

** In the manga at least. This particular plot point is not raised in the anime.

* Philo and Robot Zoe in ''{{Caprica}}''. Complicated by her having the mind of a dead girl in her and doubly complicated by his not knowing this.

* Played with at various times in the ''{{Transformers}}'' franchise; the [[TransformersGenerationOne G1]] continuity had a few instances of humans falling for members of the Autobots, but with little reciprocation. Once {{Fembot}}s were introduced, more overt showings of affection from the Robots In Disguise developed, to the point where ''BeastWars'' [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar got a]] ''[[GettingCrapPastTheRadar lot]]'' [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar of crap past the radar]], in terms of InnocentInnuendo (and not so innocent...robot topless bars, anyone?). ''TransformersRobotsInDisguise'' made a RunningGag of one of the Autobots becoming obsessed with an [[ButtMonkey unfortunate human woman's]] red sports car. The Unicron Trilogy had various ''male'' members of the Decepticons make googly eyes toward ''Megatron''. Film/Transformers Bayverse [[FridgeLogic inexplicably had both factions use sexual humor]]. And ''TransformersAnimated'' had [[{{Squick}} Optimus become traumatized after being told how humans procreate]]. Interestingly, whenever Transformer procreation is mentioned, it is described as "build a chassis from whatever's convenient, get the [[OurSoulsAreDifferent Spark]] from a MacGuffin". Some series (the movies, TransformersAnimated) have the plot driven by the loss of the MacGuffin, with it stated outright that their species is effectively unable to reproduce without it, and G1 has something similar as the driving plot of a few episodes and a comics storyline or two. The implication, of course, is that either the writers aren't thinking things through, RuleOfFunny is overriding logic in many cases, or we are misunderstanding things based on our sexual human perspective.
** Do I have to say ''KissPlayers''? Gah, now I'm nauseous.

[[AC:Fanfiction]]
* This Troper remembers reading a Warhammer 40k fanfic on /tg/, detailing something akin to a sex-scene between a Techpriest and his...lasgun. At the end they are both...satisfied...

** Not to mention that [[MadScientist Hakase]] offered to install [[IfyouknowwhatImean "Naughty Bits"]] into Chachamaru's body

* Reploids easily qualify as RidiculouslyHumanRobots, so in ''MegaManZero'', we do meet a reploid who fell in love with a human woman. As the woman got older, the reploid decided to get his parts replaced to make himself look older. After she died, he kept the body so [[SugarWiki/CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming he would never forget the memories he had of her.]]

** YMMV on [[spoiler:Ellen Tigh]]
*** Yeah, if you're gay maybe. [[spoiler:Ellen's]] a total MILF.

*** Yeah, if you're gay maybe. Ellen's a total MILF.

** RobinWilliams was on the other side of such a relationship in ''{{Flubber}}'', where his floating female robot had an unrequited crush on him. This was mostly PlayedForLaughs.

* The protagonist falls in love with the titular Cherry2000, and when she breaks he goes off on an adventure to replace her body. But in the end he decides to throw her away and hook up with the movie's ActionGirl
