Nanotechnology as a futuristic sexual fetish for web-savvy weirdos? |
| (Nanowerk News) There is a very funny commentary posted on Wired Beta, titled "Futuristic Sexual Fetishes for Web-Savvy Weirdos" – making the point that not all fetishes have been invented yet. |
| One example: Nanotechnology fetish. |
| "Obviously, in the future nanotechnology will affect all aspects of human sexuality, giving us everything from self-peeling condoms to spermicidal linebackers. Having your sex life enhanced by billions of imperceptible molecular devices will be seen as completely normal. However, a few people will become attached to nanodevices on an individual level, fantasizing about one particular nanomachine, giving it a name and writing elaborate erotic fiction involving shrinking down to an atomic level and consummating their attachment to a firm but gentle microscopic lover. Suggested fetish nickname: One Nanite Stands." |
| Good thing they didn't make any Grey Goo jokes... |
| The other fetishes waiting to be developed: High-G; Alien; Hyperspace and AI. |
