[ExI] Sudden rise in enquiries for robot sex dolls

[Kelly Anderson]

South Korea may have the lowest birthrate on earth currently, with an
astounding average 1.0 births per couple. 2.1 is required to maintain
population. South Korea may end up in worse shape than North Korea if
they continue down this road.

Now, I have NOTHING against sex robots. I just don't think they should
replace procreation. It's important to have kids when possible.

My son reports that the POTUS-elect is very popular at Berzerkeley, particularly among the male students.  I have been thru twelve election cycles while at an age that I remember their sales pitches.  Never in my wildest did I think we would ever see a campaign as testosterone-soaked as this one.  It worked.  I just cannot imagine even as recently as four years ago a candidate running an ad like this:
