* ''Anime/ArmitageIII'' spoiler: [[spoiler:The Third-type gynoids are essentially mass-produced [[HouseWife house wives]], complete with [[UterineReplicator the ability to become pregnant]]. This is meant to allow a disproportionately male Mars to cut ties with a misandrist-ruled Earth. Naomi Armitage herself is one, and becomes this for Ross Sylibus, resulting in [[BabiesEverAfter them having a baby]].]]

** A Public Enemy story in ''Marvel 2099 Unlimited'' features a man who is worried that his robot wife would be the target of prejudice, so he buys her synthetic skin. She refuses to wear it, saying that she's proud of who she is and their relationship, and if other people sre prejudiced, that's their problem. They have to be protected from a hate mob by the Public Enemy. We don't get much more details on the relationship, but since she's clearly capable of expressing an opinion and overruling his, it's presumably the "A-OK" version.

* Mr. Universe, InformationBroker and hacker extraordinaire in ''Film/{{Serenity}}'' and... Well, she's not so much a SexBot as she is a bog-standard [=RealDoll=]-alike sex toy with a few extra features, the kind of thing the yellow press would have you believe will be bringing about the extinction of Japanese culture in a generation or two. However from what is shown, Mr. Universe cares very deeply indeed for Lenore (Mrs. Universe?), despite her being a robot and showing no signs of sentience. He apparently cried like a baby at his wedding. (In case it wasn't already obvious, [[{{Hikkikomori}} Mr. Universe doesn't get out and about much]] and [[GoMadFromTheIsolation might have gone a bit peculiar.]]) According to the RPG, having a robot like Lenore is still heavily stigmatized, among other things, even being suspected of owning one will get you blacklisted by the Companions.
