Would you have sex with a robot?

Would you marry one? Would a robot have the right to say no to such a union?
These were just a few of the questions being asked at the second Love and Sex with Robots conference hastily rearranged at Goldsmiths University in London after the government in Malaysia - the original location - banned it.
It has proved controversial, not only to countries with conservative views.
There were no representatives from the sex industry in attendance and no sex robots on display, leading some to question the point of the event.
RealDolls, a Californian-based firm that makes lifelike sex toys, claimed that it would release an artificial intelligence-enhanced sex doll next year.
The launch, if it happens, will be vindication for Dr David Levy, who has long predicted the era of intelligent human-looking robots.: More:

Good question to ponder and a tough one.
In answer and after contemplating, no. Tempting maybe but they're not for me.

Still this one was pretty :D

*LOL* Its been eight years since the lady friend died I'm afraid I would need a robot that would have to show me what to do. The question was more for the fine folk here at Q3W, not for me. What's your preference xer0s?

One of my favourite sci-fi authors wrote a book about this a while back:
Chris Beckett - The Holy Machine

Not quite as good as his Dark Eden books, but still thought-provoking stuff.

Would this hypothetical sex robot be a current model or a future one that is like seremtan puts it on the right side of the uncanny valley? These details are important.
