Social psychologist and eminent "sex expert" Dr. Justin Lemiller, a research fellow at the Kinsey Institute at Indiana University, has collected and analyzed a lot of data to find out: how many people still think about making love with robots? And also, can robots replace a partner in sexual pleasures?
Lemmiller writes, "I have collected data on 4,000 Americans about their sexual fantasies for my book Tell Me What You Want, and the results may provide answers to these questions."
He studied, among other things, how often participants fantasized about having sex with a robot, especially as the world's first "sex doll brothels" began to appear in cities around the world. Stories about the latest trends in the robotic sex doll industry are extremely popular and sometimes go viral, including more and more reports of the closure of such establishments shortly after opening.
Despite the popularity of the topic and the media hype about the bizarre trend that began in 2018, Dr. Lemiller found that only 14.3 percent of the 4,000 men and women surveyed dreamed of having sex with a robot.
According to the scientist's report:
- only 10.7 percent of women reported fantasizing about having sex with a robot;
- men were more likely to fantasize about it - 17 percent;
- most often fantasized about having sex with robots 22.8 percent of people who identified themselves as a “non-binary” sex other than male and female (about 5 percent of the sample);
- only 1.2 percent of women, 1.4 percent of men, and 4.3 percent of “non-binary” people often fantasize “about sex with robots - a“rather small group”with a“strong interest”in sex with robots.
Ultimately, the data suggests that about 1 in 7 people have thought about having sex with a robot at least once in their life. Dr. Lemiller linked the results to the desire of most people to satisfy their emotional needs through sex.
So, despite the media hype, it's unlikely the sex robot industry will take off anytime soon, as people's interest seems to only stop at reading the ominous headlines.
The researcher concludes that "the sex robot revolution that we have heard so much about may be slightly exaggerated."

This may also be due to an increase in the number of complaints about the impossibility of providing basic sanitary and hygienic standards when using silicone seductresses.
