The article didn't mention sexual use/abuse of robots. I'm sure they will be built for that purpose, too.

This quote from the article barely touches on that subject:

"Imagine if some people treat androids as if the machines were their wives," Park Hye-Young of the ministry's robot team told the AFP news agency.

Anyone who read Asimov's "Foundation Trilogy" and all the other novels that went with it knows that the robots had, uh, "capabilities".

Maybe Park Hye-Young is imagining an android wife is something he might enjoy.
