Abstract
Abstract:
This article underscores the inherent technological drive that exists in human beings, whose wellspring is mortal vulnerability coupled with human intelligence and mobile dexterity. It also stresses the progressive and refined interaction between humans and their machines, drawing connections between the technological enterprise and human sexuality, especially with regard to perversion. It examines the new sexual landscape emerging as a result of advanced technology, offering a brief summary of four clinical cases.
