Governments need to take action to stop such dolls entering the UK, experts have warned

>The coming sex robot revolution is going to empower paedophiles and rapists, experts have warned.

>The creation of lifelike androids made only to have sex – which is already happening – could have huge dangers and help encourage all kinds of sexual abuse, a new report warns.

>Experts have warned that the compliant robots, built only to service their owners, could encourage objectification, abuse, rape and paedophilia.

>Inanimate child sex dolls had already been manufactured and exported from Japan by a self-confessed paedophile, Prof Sharkey revealed.

>They were not illegal in the US, but a consignment of the dolls had been seized in Canada, which has strict laws on representing children as sex objects.

>Experts have now called for the UK and other countries to ban such child sex robots from being imported.

>One sex robot, Roxxxy Gold, made by the US company TrueCompanion, came with a choice of personalities including shy and reserved "Frigid Farrah" and adventurous "Wild Wendy".

>A robot pre-programmed to resist sexual advances was effectively a rape victim, said Prof Sharkey.

>"Some say it's better to rape a robot than a person, but others think it would encourage rape," he added.

>Prof Sharkey wanted to see the government take pre-emptive action to stop paedophile sex robots entering the UK.

>"I would say there should be an import ban on those," he said.
