... A Japanese company named Trottla already ships child-sized sex dolls globally. Earlier this year, a Canadian man went on trial after he was arrested in 2013 for ordering such a doll. Under Canadian law, they are considered child pornography and he could go to jail for seven years.
But what if dolls like these could help rather than hurt? Ron Arkin, a robotics engineer at the Georgia Institute of Technology and one of the panelists, argued that people should not only legally be permitted to have such dolls, but perhaps some should be handed prescriptions for them. In his opinion, VR and sex robots might function as an outlet for people to express their urges, redirecting dark desires toward machines and away from real children. If it works, it could help past offenders reintegrate harmlessly into society as well as helping prevent those who have never offended from doing so.

Some researchers are cautiously optimistic about the idea. “It is possible that virtual child pornography content or other simulations such as child sex dolls or robots might be a safer outlet for at least some individuals who are sexually attracted to children,” says Michael C. Seto, director of the Forensic Research Unit at the Royal Ottawa Health Care Group in Canada.
But both he and Renaud pause at the notion of open access to child-sized sex robots – not when we don’t know what effect they might have on pedophiles. “I wouldn’t take any chance with that kind of use of robotics,” says Renaud. “Maybe some very intelligent and controlled individual could have such contact only with dolls, but for [others], I think that would only lead to the need to go further and to cross the line with real victims.”

Pedophilia is an adverse reaction to a very powerful, mind-altering substance.
That substance is testosterone.
The solution is obvious.
Women have only a tiny amount in their system, mostly produced by the adrenal gland...this is why the incidence of pedophilia is so small in females.
< Nothing but a gateway doll....
Exactly. It might make their condition worse. Serial killers practice on animals before they kill humans. Same concept.
LOL!
You’re so easy to please. :)
Bull hockey! Testosterone does not cause anyone to molest children.
Then why do they stop when it is withdrawn?
I’m afraid the doll would simply become... practice.
Unfortunately, from what I understand, pedophilia is practically impossible to cure.
You’re talking about the physical effects of testosterone. Withdrawing it does not change their thinking. Pumping testosterone into somebody won’t turn them into pedophile either.
YOU have seen PORN? Say it’s not so!!! I though you learned to hit anything from watching episodes of Cheers! ;)
I think Laz is older than that. I thought he learned it from The Fonz.
Would probably result in queer robots attacking children.
It has been discovered that a tiny percentage of F2M transgenders develop pedophilic attractions after being on testosterone therapy for a few years.
Similar to the tiny fraction of males that develop the same tendencies.
I say again, adverse reaction to testosterone that strikes only a small number of people, regardless of gender.
No case of pedophilia has ever been seen in a genetic male that has androgen insensitivity syndrome...either full or partial.
220, 221.. Whatever works. :-)
I agree. There is something extremely disturbing about this idea. The dolls are whetting the appetite for the real thing. These products are evil.
Wonder if the genius behind this has young children.
Laz, you are partially correct. These pervs have been “turned over” to that sinful behavior and really don’t “know”, like say, you and I do, that what they are doing is in fact “wrong”. They suffer from a seared conscience and short of Divine intervention, the only remedy is death. That’s the message I have received or “feel” in regards to ALL the freaks as of late. Just my .02 brutha . . . .
And before these females had medical procedures performed in an attempt to morph into males, were they perfectly normal, without any abnormal sexual desires? I’m thinking they were already screwed up.
A taboo subject to be sure. but just remember. Cross dressing men urinating next to girls was taboo not more than 2 years ago.
No, they had no predilection for pedophilia.
There are many clues that adverse reaction to testosterone is the cause of pedophilia... there are zero clues that prove it is not testosterone.
There is a short period of time after male orgasm when the areas of the brain responsible for libido shut down... these are the areas stimulated by testosterone. Every male knows this effect well, every female does too..lol It is common knowledge that pedophiles lose all desire for sex with children during this short time. Psychiatrists admonish patients with pedophilia to masturbate to orgasm to avoid an incident... shutting down libido will give the patient a chance to avoid catastrophe.
The libido shutdown mechanism is common to mammals and is a safety valve to prevent damage from prolonged mating activity.
Capital punishment is more virtuous.
A rusty knife would be a heck of a lot cheaper.
