Machine-lusters have been looking for more love than a dildo can give since at least the 1980s. One of the more diminutive machines modeled on FuckingMachines.com, the Sybian, has been around for 15 years, according to Bright, who remembers trying out a demo of it as an editor at the pioneering lesbian sex magazine "On Our Backs." Apparently, sex machines comprise a niche of technological innovation where Moore's Law does not apply.

But the site isn't for women searching for that perfect inhuman partner who won't ever go soft or quit (unless the power fails). It's a subscription service for gearhead men (and some lesbians) who pay to see women go at it with these larger-than-life mechanical lovers. The site isn't selling the machines themselves, it's selling the machine dream.

The porn bunnies in the videos streamed here act -- some more convincingly than others -- like they're delighted to have the sex toy equivalent of cranes and streamrollers pounding into them. Still, to the squeamish, FuckingMachines.com may look more like a gynecological torture chamber than a turn-on. Misogyny goes mechanical?

But wait, the machines have no sexual orientation. Soon, gay men will get their own chance to ogle mechanized molestation. Buttmachineboys.com is on the way.

In fact, to hear "Peter Rogers," 31, tell it, FuckingMachines is his bid to go mainstream. Since 1997 Rogers has run a niche bondage porn site. But FuckingMachines is going after a broader base. He says videos of machine humping women are not for machine fetishists, they're for everyone!

"Anybody who likes female porn is into the site," says Rogers. He argues that it's the women who are the stars and the machines are just a novel means of eliminating men. "In a lot of pornography magazines, there are no men," he says. "The dudes don't like to see it." Pirelli chimes in, supportively, "I don't like to see another guy."

Besides, Rogers contends, you can see a lot more of the action without an extra pair of butt cheeks blocking the view. "You've got a rod with a dildo going in and out. The machines don't get in the way like the guys do." He has a point. The images here are so clinical, so stark, so under the microscope -- just flesh and machines -- they make the close-up crotch shots in hardcore pornography look romantic.

But erotica pundits disagree that the machines are only props. They see the machines as taking starring roles. Queen places the Trespasser, the Drilldo and their throbbing kin in the grand erotic tradition of using household appliances as sex toys.

"Everybody knows about leaning up against the washer during the spin cycle, right?" says Queen. "There's something about the idea of getting sexed up and just finding things around the house."

It's like an X-rated version of a children's story where the lamps, the blender and the hot-water heater come alive and run riot.
