Feminist groups in Sweden have called for a ban on 'dangerous' sex robots because they encourage men to treat women's bodies as objects and could lead to violence against real women and girls.

Sweden's Women's Lobby, the National Organisation for Women's Shelters and Young Women's Shelters have made a joint appeal in Swedish Newspaper Expressen, for the robots to be banned as they 'dehumanise' women. 

The groups believe that the increasingly lifelike dolls and robots are posing a threat to the safety of women as they are not programmed with the ability to say 'no' to men's demands.
