What exactly is this for?

Did someone misunderstand what these agents do?

Do they not know, that they don't actually have feelings, and have no need for companionship?

Not that it's impossible that you could design a robot with feelings, but all the ones that are built now, are just there to do what the human tells them to do, and nothing else.

Yes they use lube before inserting their fingers, but why do they seem to go in way too quickly? They of pretty much all outpatient medical professions should know to go in slowly to avoid tearing and bleeding. Especially for a pregnant woman. When a guy goes in for a prostate exam, they insert slowly. But when a woman has a pelvic exam, they go in quickly. And my wife’s ob/gyns have always been female which makes it doubly ironic that they don’t. Any other women notice this?
