The story is set in a future where androids have been fully integrated into society and have essentially taken over as the principal high achievers. In this society it is now &#8220;politically incorrect&#8221; to ask if one is an android. As such, the protagonist &#8211; while in the midst of an enjoyable sexual encounter &#8211; is struck with a desire to ask if his lover is indeed real but worries whether by doing so it will ruin everything. <\/p>\n<p>I thought this story fit well with the recent podcast discussion about the consequences of hosts in the real world and whether we should be rooting for or against humanity. <\/p>\n<p>BTW, I recently discovered the Westworld and Shat the Movie podcasts and now they are among my favorite listens. Keep up the great work. <\/p>\n<p>Regards,<br \/>\nM.
