That’s exactly the wrong take.

Provide something that isn’t what they need in order to fill a need they have.

That’s like giving someone drugs instead to masque symptoms of working in the problem and addressing it.

But that’s not right either. If providing sexual encounters was real and done appropriately then there this situation might still exists. If it’s the physical space and intimacy that are triggering, then a robot is a very good choice if it provides some of the missing human experiences that missing out on when desired make for more broken people
