Kek...
I love University studies. Who know, maybe some of TI's membership was an unwittingly part of one one of these "studies". The world may never know...
Anyway, on with the results!!!

TLDR...
Humans were "aroused" by touching the buttocks of a robot.

This is like the biggest non story I've ever seen.

I'm sure there's a meaurable arrosal to things like https://www.google.com/search?q=San+Onofre+Nuclear+Generating+Station&client=ms-android-oneplus&prmd=nmiv&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiFzZXz1PrLAhVH_WMKHX_8C5YQ_AUICSgD&biw=360&bih=559#imgdii=8iWmNIKLTLibIM:;AkF59RUP3O2zVM:;AkF59RUP3O2zVM:&imgrc=AkF59RUP3O2zVM%3
(Sorry that link is a disaster)

Idk what they are trying to say here but humanizing something that's as human as these buildings is a dangerous thing.
