The legal issues surrounding these sex robots have been discussed by the South Australian Law Association in its August 2021 bulletin. In a 2019 study on medical practices performed by sex robots, the opinions of people who wanted to use sex robots were summarized. It is known that there is a high percentage of people who have the motive of wanting to improve the problem of premature ejaculation.
Based on these results, sex robots are thought to be useful in relieving sexual anxiety, empowering the elderly and disabled, treating erectile dysfunction, and providing a sense of security to people who are uneasy about their sexual preferences. On the other hand, there is also criticism that 'sex robots promote the objectification of women and increase the risk of women being victims of sexual violence.' In order to deal with such criticism, a sex robot that incorporates a program that refuses sexual invitations from users has also appeared in Australia so as to avoid the requirements for prosecution of sex crimes.
The South Australian Law Association took up the view that sex robots indirectly influence women. Flinders University's Maddie McCarthy, an expert on the law surrounding sex robots, said factors such as technological advances, increased demand and public interest are driving Australian policymakers to ``call for regulation of sex robots'' in the near future. likely to face it. Mr. McCarthy touched on the fact that although there are no regulations on sexual intercourse with robots under current law, there are regulations on ``sex robots that look like children,'' saying, ``Aim to balance personal interests and public interests. In addition, ethical, regulatory and legal challenges must be addressed,' he said. Associate Professor Tania Layman, head of the legal department at Flinders University, also expressed the opinion that we should pay attention to the possibility that sex robots promote sex crimes, saying, ``Crime related to a sex doll that looks like a child has a sentence of 10 to 15 years. In most cases, the judgment is close to the lower limit even though it is stipulated.' He argued that the law may be distorted that sexual assaults on robots are not considered as serious as sex crimes against humans.
