I once read a sci-fi romance called The Silver Metal Lover, by Tanith Lee. It described a utopian future wherein a robotics company creates a new line of super realistic sexbots, which in all ways perfectly recreated impossibly beautiful humans, except their “skin” is either silver, gold or copper. They come in male and female models. A rich teenage girl, virginal, happens across one of these male silver robots at a party and falls instantly, utterly in love with him. Having no experience of dating or love, it confuses and upsets her. Later, she gets it in her head to go to the company and rent the silver male, and while she’s there, she also sees the female versions of him. It’s the only time The females are mentioned. I wanted to try a version of the female. so here she is. How did the book end, you say? Well, let’s just say she is ruined forever for human males, but then there is a recall to the robot factory.
