I seem to be using the terms Sexbot and EDIbot interchangeably. Some people seem to think that's not PC. I encourage those people not to worry about it.

 I'm sick of people calling the Alliance Infiltration Unit the "sexbot".  Grow up!  That's totally retarded & not even funny.



I totally agree with you.  Oh well....childish people are every where<_<

Hope not... But go ahead if you like. I just think it's rather childish. 

This is almost as stupid as the hate for James Vega, just because he has muscles.

I think the term 'sexbot' is less juvenile and more of poking fun at her ridiculous proportions. even to this day I find the design of EDI really off-putting.

Totally agree. Can't help but think what Bioware thought when they saw people calling her that :?

I find her design off-putting too, but still not a fan of the sexbot moniker, you know people are calling her that because she is a robot with a female apperance and most people on the BSN have very juvenile attitudes about everything sex-related.

Sexbot is not going away anytime soon.

How can you not make some kind of perverted reference to a character with big ole' boobies and a GIGANTIC white girl booty?

The damn thing screams "Automated Sex Toy" hence.. Sexbot.


my thoughts exactly.

It'll stick if you don't bother to clean it afterwards

It's kind of obvious that the model was originally (from this side of the forth wall) made to naturally appeal to Joker's character, for EDI loves him. She would naturally want to attempt to tittilate the object of her affections as she tries to understand how to get him to genuinely love her back.

Jumbled feministic crap


So what you're saying is this: The sexbot, is not actually a sexbot? Just an over sexualized bot created by BioWare to appear as a sexbot. And we, the immature sexually starved BSNers, just call her a sexbot to degrade women and/or make a poor, distasteful joke about said sexbot. And, according to the white knights that take things entirely too serious, the sexbot is nothing more than a fembot(que Austin Powers theme for giggles) and we should refer to it as such, right? Well, sexbot it is then.

Er - it doesn't have sex. Ever. In single player or multi player. No, it's not a sexbot.

If it was a robot purpose-built for people to have sex with, sure, it'd be a sexbot. But it's not. It's a robot in the shape of an attractive lady. It's there to infiltrate, and to kill reapers. Which it does. A lot. The leap from "attractive lady" to "it exists to have willies in it" is both huge and kind of rapey.

It's sexualised, and designed to draw male gaze, (which is a useful design feature if you're an infiltrator) but sexualised and promiscuous are a million miles apart.

Oh. My. God.

Just try to catch some reference and understand what "sexbot" means.

It was called like that since it appeared in the screenshot. "Sexbot" is a stereotype, it is not a character. It is a concept. It is the idea that when desperate, just add a robot (object) with female atributes so young boys can feel their hormones working hard.

It is an "easy trump", like choppers in movies, explosions in movies, or even... exploding choppers in movies.

If you think calling this "thing" "sexbot" is just litteral, consider the culture you are in : gamers, sci-fy, Roleplay games.

"Sexbot" is actually a denouncing term. Nothing more.

Just... think a little, please.

It doesn't help that they didn't give it any clothes...it essentially looks naked.

It was designed after EDI, whose default appearance is naked. This is made more obvious by the option to put clothes on her.

No way to get rid of the ******....
