2024 FEB 27 (NewsRx) – By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – Fresh data on robotics are presented in a new report. According to news reporting from the University of Johannesburg by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “Sex robots, in a broad ethical sense, challenge our traditional social norms, sexual interactions, and how we visualise the human body.” Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from University of Johannesburg: “As a distinct sex stimulation technology, sex robots are ethically problematic because of the humanlike characteristics that these technologies embody. In this paper, I argue, on the one hand, that the design of sex robots objectifies the human body, from an African perspective, because of their humanoid appearance. This objectification of the human body contradicts the African conception of the human body as possessing inalienable dignity, vitality, and sacredness. On the other hand, I show how the designs of sex robots reinforce adverse stereotypical gender norms and standards of beauty.”
