Dear Ann, My robot boyfriend and I feel like we're ready to have sex, but I'm worried about catching a virus or getting pregnant with a cyborg. What precautions should I take? Virgin in Virginia.
Dear Virgin, So long as you're not having cybersex with your boyfriend, you don't have to worry about viruses. And cyborgs are made not born. He can't get you pregnant.
Dear Ann, I disagree with the advice you gave to Virgin in Virginia. I had sex with a robot and was infected with nanobots that carry the Trojan virus. Helen in Greece, NY.
Dear Helen, Thank you for correcting me. Dr. Susan Calvin informs me that nanobot infection is a serious danger for humans in robot-human sex. It can be treated with virus-killer nanobots.
Dear Ann, You omitted an important issue in your response to Helen in Greece, NY. A virus-killer nanobot can attack only known viruses, yet new viruses are being written every day. Bible-Belt Hacker.
Dear Hacker, Thank you for raising the important point that robot-human sex always remains a danger. Robots should be careful too, because infected humans can infect them.
