When it comes to sex, China has always been a very conservative country. The government demands that cleavage be censored on TV. and still bans women from eating bananas suggestively on camera. But the life-size sex dolls with artificial intelligence in Yoyo Liu’s company showroom tell a different, and very strange, story.
“Last year there was a very big market for dolls,” Liu, general manager of WM Dolls, told us on a recent factory tour. “Every year it grows by about 30 percent.”
Her Guangzhou-based company makes 30,000 internet-connected sexbots a year and controls 20 percent of the Chinese sex doll market. The dolls cost up to $10,000 each, and business is booming, in part because Liu’s company allows clients to customize their products. “They like different kinds of vaginas in addition to different body types,” she said.
Examining a past Cosmic Skeptic video titled "What is Atheism? (Atheism vs Agnosticism Explained)".
I think Alex gets it wrong when discussing anti-theism. He seems to conflate Gnostic atheism with anti-theism.
I don't think that's helpful and only serves to make anti-theists look like irrational actors, instead of accurately portraying what anti-theists believe.
I hope that Alex will post a retraction video and perhaps make another video accurately outlining what an anti-theist actually is.
