This takes pornography to its logical conclusion: guaranteed sex without fear of the consequences.

At the same time, this is a play on a male fantasy; that there is a market---of any size---for this kind of thing is telling of that.

This is along the same line as that game Manhunt, except in that instance it's about engaging in stealth and brutal violence (even for video games).

It's important to remember: this is fantasy. What's interesting, I think, is exploring that bridge between fantasy and reality. What tempts one to cross it?
