Cheaper than couples counseling!
You think the war of the sex's is bad now? Just wait until a man or woman can literally buy a human-like android which never says no.
I anticipate things like the marriage rate, partnership rates, dating rates and similar to further crater compared to where they are now. Human based marriages will be the minority by the end of the century, likely far before it.
Almost no policy makers consider this, but it's clearly staring us in the face. Go see civit.ai to see de-facto what people learned how to use adapter/lora models for. The overwhelming majority of text-to-image content and plurality of text-to-video created today by AI is hardcore NSFW.
I don't think that's what people want. They want a robot/AI that loves them or agrees to the desired relationship status (girlfriend or wife), because dating and finding a partner who reciprocates your feelings is hard.
That's not the same as indulging in the most depraved fetishes. For whatever reason, there is a lot of misandry in the context of male sexuality, where it is selectively reinterpreted to be as evil as possible.
Self proclaimed anti sexbot feminists fear that men will use their companions to practice rape, so they suggested that sexbots should refuse to give consent, which paradoxically gives rise to the possibility of rape, because rape is not defined by the severity of the outcome/consequences, but by a simple yes or no "question". This is especially ridiculous in the case of affirmative consent, where unprovable positive consent must be given or it is rape nonetheless.
So back to my original point. A lot of men just want to live out a relationship with someone who loves them back, something that is in short supply these days. This is in no contradiction to regulations making AI girlfriends or robots or whatever a positive influence in a man's life. Let them be happy and they'll be productive members of society.
