We Get Aroused By Touching Robots' Private Parts, Study Says

"It shows that people respond to robots in a primitive, social way," researcher Jamy Li said in the release. "Social conventions regarding touching someone else's private parts apply to a robot's body parts as well. This research has implications for both robot design and theory of artificial systems." As shown in the video above, the robot in the experiment also provides an anatomical definition of each body part touched. There were four female volunteers and six male volunteers in the small study, according to The Guardian.
