I don't really know what to make of it except that your choices are apparently limited to sex Today, or Never. drat, way to make a dude nervous.

If you both press the buttons then the gently caress lights start flashing.

“Hey, I’m down. You wanna smash?” “Yeah.” “Nice.” OR “Hey, I’m down. You wanna smash?” “Nah.” “Cool. I’ll go take some alone time.” I just saved everyone 7500 dollars. You’re welcome. Ariong has a new favorite as of 09:48 on Feb 12, 2019 |

I really think the button could work for partners where one or both of them have been in abusive/coercive relationships before, ones where the question of "Does this 'yes' mean 'I want to have sex', or 'I don't want sex but I still fear that saying no will lead to bad things happening'?" I mean, obviously they should be seeing a therapist about it, but a no-pressure way of indicating desire could lead to them trusting their own libido again. Of course, you can't actually say "This is mostly for former abuse survivors and the people they're currently seeing" in a Kickstarter pitch, because most of the money there is coming from the "This is tech with flashing lights that might solve relationships forever, MUST HAVE IT" crowd.

Yeah the problem is the market for "this is a tool for couples that have difficulty communicating due to issues of past trauma with one or both partners" is a lot smaller than the market for "this is for people that wanna gently caress but think that verbal consent is like, such a turn off"

Yeah, if it was for that it could just be a cute little app with like I dunno a teddy bear aesthetic or whatnot As it is it's a chunk of expensive machined proprietary hardware that needs to be plugged into something else

Those are usually made for people with disabilities, but those profit margins are really tiny and in some cases can make someone feel less capable for having to have them. So, market it to normal people who apparently have the world's weirdest able-bodied problems, you get a larger market. Although in this case part of me wonders if they know that and designed their product for this real if rare need, or if they're just techbros trying to innovate where it's not needed and accidentally making a product useful to a small subset of the population.

The one that concerns me is 'skin'. Because that means that either they're specifically looking for something I can only imagine is horrifying, or they've had to include 'skin' in their searches to ensure the results actually include skin, and in that case the fact they're adding that speaks poorly of every other state for apparently being fine without that criteria.

I wonder what else could have happened between 2006-2008 that would have caused a precipitous drop in border crossings. I guess we'll never know, the only thing that changed between those years was the wall, surely.
