Men Are Different by morsom https://padlet.com/fgmb/9kobf87s867a Group work en-us 2019-03-28 12:25:39 UTC 2025-04-24 09:14:06 UTC hello@padlet.com Signe, Asger, Nikoline and Annsophia annsophia_ak https://padlet.com/fgmb/9kobf87s867a/wish/346512295 Describe the setting of the story. When and where does it take place - and how can you see that?
It takes place in the future on another planet. We can infer this by looking at the quote “We know, or at least the historians say we know, that Men came from a planet called Earth”

Give an inner characterisation of the robot. 
He is curios. 
Ignorant. 
He's unemotional and more logical thinking. 

From what the robot tells us, how can we see that it is different from a human being?
When he tries to "fix" the human he says “But when I opened him up he wasn’t the same inside”

What if:
What if women were robots
The thoughts Alan could have had when creating this story could be that women are like robots and think that men are completely different both on the outside and on the inside.

  • A different planet.
  • Their lives are like ours. (They have jobs) 
  • Men has had a great time making colonies on different planets. 

Inner characterisation of the robot
  • Just a robot. 
  • Caring, but does not know anything about human beings - “I checked his temperature and decided that his thermostat circuits were shut.”

How is the robot different from a human being?
  • Robots do not have any feelings compared to human beings
  • The robot has the same skeleton like a human being, but it’s made of titanium instead of calcium. 

“What if” questions that Alan Bloch must have asked himself before writing the story
  • What if human beings weren’t the dominant race?
  • What if men go extinct.
  • What if robots travelled the universe?

It is in the future. It takes on the subject what if the robots take over the world? It has a degree of technological terms in it. 


Describe the setting of the story. When and where does it take place?-and how can you see it.
It takes place in the future, and not in our current time. It does not take place on Earth, but another planet. 

Give an inner characterisation of the robot.
It is able to feel sympathy for the last human. It want to help it’s fellows and do what it thinks is best.

It does not feel remorse from killing the human being. The robot mentions himself as made of titanium.

Which “What if” questions must the writer had asked himself.

  • What if the robots take over the world?
  • What if human dies??

  • The story takes place somewhere in space in the future. The narrator is described as a machine, who talks about human beings, who thrive in space. 

Give an inner characterisation of the robot:
The robot is a woman who finds a man, who jumps from woman to woman. The ‘’robot’’ cuts him open, in an attempt to learn more about him and get closer to the person he really is. The man isn’t the same as he used to be, he dies and dissolves into bones, which is the only trace of the man that the woman has. 

From what the robot tells up, how can we see that it is different from a human being? 
It doesn’t understand how the man works and ends up killing him. It survives by itself and learns about other planets when the man is just lying dead on earth.

We know this because the narrator talks about earth as a distant planet/place. We know that it takes place in the future, because we don’t have the kind of means today to travel from “star to star” and survive on planets so far away. The robots that we have today are not nearly as advanced as the one telling the story.
2.       It’s a kind robot, who wants to help the person feeling ill. It takes care of him, by “turning him off”, not knowing that it killed him. 
3.       Its bones are obviously not made of calcium. Their bones are made of titanium. The man is made of flesh that disappears when the blood stops flowing. The robot may corrode, but it won’t disappear. 
4.       What if Robots could live in their own society, functioning as human beings? What if technology could advance so much, that we would be able to travel from star to star leaving colonies behind?
