title = "A Critical Evaluation of David Levy{\textquoteright}s Sex Robot Utopianism",
abstract = "The sex robots are coming, and this has generated a debate between the supporters and critics of sex with sex robots. David Levy is an enthusiastic advocate for sex with sexbot, but his sex robot utopianism is contradicted by severe criticisms of the use of sexbots by radical feminists like Kathleen Richardson and personalist critics like Michael Hauskeller. In this article, I will explore Levy{\textquoteright}s intriguing arguments in some details, and then provide also a detailed critique of his arguments. My conclusion is that sex with sex robots is fraught with many problems and a kind of sex robot utopianism is unwarranted.",
