Programming of Humanoid Artificial Intelligence, Robosexuality and Queer Robotics in Occidental LGBTQ+ Cinema: An Experimental Survey

This research paper explores and scrutinises the nature of representation and treatment of the elements of ‘Humanoid Artificial Intelligence or Robots with Emotions, Robosexuality or Human beings having Sexual and Romantic Desire for Robots as well as Queer Robotics or Homosexual Robots with LGBTQ+ Orientation’ in Queer Cinema produced in the Western countries, with the application of the tools and techniques of content analysis and critical review through qualitative prism in ten LGBTQ+ sample motion pictures in a meticulous fashion. These very ten queer movies have been nominated from the continents of North America and Europe in general as well as the three countries of United States of America, Germany and France in specific as sample text films based on ‘Stratified Sampling Method’ for the purpose of data collection within the granary of research methodology. The theory of ‘Heterosexual-Homosexual Rating Scale’ by American Biologist and Sexologist Professor Alfred Charles Kinsey has been adopted as the theoretical framework in this experimentation. The concepts like sex; gender; sexual orientations of LGBTQ+; sexo-romantic roles of top, bottom & versatile; genetic root of biological sex & psycho-social gender; queer cinema; artificial intelligence; robotics engineering; cyborg; android; humanoid; gynoid or fembot; mecha; queer robotics; robosexuality; robophilia; robot fetishism etc. have been clarified before the invasion into the arena of actual data collection through investigation, which occupies the result section. Further, data analysis of such elements concerned among the ten sample population engulfs the discussion section. Finally, verification of the research objectives, research questions and research hypotheses, encapsulate the conclusion section of this experimental survey.
