Sample size sounds way too small to be throwing around "virulent misogyny" to me. For me, a sex robot sounds like two steps away from a more advanced fleshlight. In an economy where I'm not getting paid enough to have off time I could be cruising or dating with, and in an economy where I'm already spending MOST OF MY HOURS AWAKE toiling for capitalist pigs, plooking a robot sounds no different from rubbing one out with more steps; especially when the robot in question can't spontaneously pop out a kid that's gonna cost me a million dollars over the course of 18 years.
It's depressing, but that's actually a pretty good sample size for social science.
