				Ashton Kutcher posed as a robot being "tested" by his creator, in this photoshoot for <em>vMan </em>magazine with famous photographer Mario Testino. (See gallery below, completely with weirdly exaggerated robo-package in his briefs.) He says he got the idea from a Gatorade ad in which someone's being tested for their physical performance, and then he started thinking, what if God could test us, his creations, to see if we're fulfilling our function? And then somehow that led to him thinking about a robot being tested by his actual creator. Actually, his explanation is less cogent than that. But actually, Ashton's only the third creepiest and most inappropriately sexy robot in mass media at the moment. Want to see the two that are worse?				<a href="http://io9.com/379560/the-creepiest-sex-robots-in-mass-media-right-now" title="Click here to read more about The Creepiest Sex Robots In Mass Media Right Now">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
