Assessing David levy's sex robot utopianism from the personalist perspective

The coming of sex robots has generated a lot of discussions. The scholarly debate on love & sex with sexbots has been ignited mostly by David Levy's book in 2007, Love + Sex with Robots: The Evolution of Human-Robot Relationships . Levy is an enthusiastic advocate for sex with sexbot, but his positive assessment of sexbots is contradicted by severe criticisms of the use of sexbots, most of which come from the radical feminists like Kathleen Richardson but other critics provide a personalist critique of Levy. In this essay, I will explore this personalist critique in some details. I will also engage with Levy's detailed arguments, & put these discussions within the context of contemporary philosophy of sex.
