People have wanted to fuck robots for a long time!

But also costume design of Maria, the robot from Metropolis, has had a huge impact on the aesthetic of female presenting robots.

Being unsure of whether you want to fuck robo-Maria or be robo-Maria is a classic sign of bisexuality among reconstructors of lost film media.

Yes, it's a niche, but you know it's not an empty niche.

At least Maria has a name, and a face.
