Are There Any Benefits to Using Sex Robots?
The answer to this question is still debated even today. There are experts who claim that there are no health or social benefits to sex robots. While there are those who contradict their claims. Sex robot supporters contend that they might offer a secure setting where individuals can explore their sexuality without worrying about stigma or judgment.
They also think that since these robots would provide a substitute for engaging in transactions with real people, they may be utilized to solve problems like sex trafficking and child exploitation.
Sex robots cater to those people who are looking to have a partner to play out a sexual act. They cater to those who are single or otherwise do not have any human partner to satisfy their intimacy cravings. There is a notion however, that sex robots are just high end and more sophisticated sex toys, but experts are looking at the possible more important benefits these sex robots could provide such as:
Therapeutic cure
Sex robots or sex machines are being considered to be a therapeutic cure for those individuals who are inflicted with rape or paedophiliac tendencies. Since these individuals have an “outlet”, the sex robots might be therapeutic for those who struggle with sex relationships and might even lessen the ever-increasing cases of sexual abuse among children and other cases of sex offenders.
Since the sex robots are lifelike, those who are tempted to commit rape, or any other non-consensual sexual acts might be dissuaded to do so since their urges could already be curbed and satisfied by the sex robots.
Sexual knowledge
The use of sex robots for sexual knowledge is another benefit that experts are considering. For those who are insecure about their sexual prowess, they could gain more knowledge and confidence because of the sex robots. This might even minimize awkwardness during sexual encounters and minimize the fear of sexual intimacy spurred by insecurity.
Not only that, but sex robots might also be beneficial for those who might need comfort because they are dealing with numerous sexually related issues such as fluctuating libido, ED or erectile dysfunction or insecurity about their penis size, handicap or loneliness.
Unconditional love and support
Manufacturers of sex robots claim that their machines are able to provide unconditional love and support that we as humans need to thrive. The sex robots are not only available for sexual demands but for social requirements as well. Some individuals are not purchasing sex robots for sex, but also for companionship and other types of personal, non-sexual intimacy.
Some owners of sex robots are those who are having difficulties connecting with real people because of fear of rejection or those who struggle to form intimate relationships with others. Others who have lost a spouse or a partner they have been with for a long time also struggled to replace them with other human partners and have preferred the company of sex robots instead.
It is obvious that there are many points of view regarding sex robots. Whether or not a person thinks having a sex robot is morally acceptable will ultimately depend on their own moral compass.
