In part 2 we take a deep dive into the award-winning ethics paper I mentioned in the previous episode regarding Sex Robots. We explore arguments from robots increasing pedophilia to the belief that male sexuality only wants to dominate with everything being only for the express pleasure of men and how women are actually more aggressive in relationships than men.
