2. A methodological reckoning for the empirical study of sex doll and sex robot issues

Author

Hanson, Kenneth R.

Abstract

In light of repeated calls for empirically driven analyses of sex doll and sex robot owners and users, I outline key methodological challenges researchers in this field currently face. I discuss how methodological limitations have shaped the field thus far and narrowed the scope of empirical research to date. To resolve these issues, I propose strategies for improving archival, quantitative, and qualitative approaches for future scholarship. Specifically, I attend to issues of historicity, nomenclature, population, sampling, qualitative approaches, and research ethics. I conclude with a discussion of how the stigma associated with sex dolls, sex robots, and sex tech amplifies the need for researchers to respect and adhere to ethical research practices yet still maintain a critical distance that directly confronts, rather than skirts, dilemmas related to use, ownership, and production. This methodological reckoning will help scholars design more robust studies and effectively evaluate innovations in the field.

Abstract

Phosphorylation of the 64 kilodalton stromal phosphoprotein by incubation of pea (Pisum sativum) chloroplast extracts with [gamma-(32)P]ATP decreased in the presence of Glc-6-P and Glc-1,6-P(2), but was stimulated by glucose. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis following incubation of intact chloroplasts and stromal extracts with [gamma-(32)P]ATP, or incubation of stromal extracts and partially purified phosphoglucomutase (EC 2.7.5.1) with [(32)P]Glc-1-P showed that the identical 64 kilodalton polypeptide was labeled. A 62 kilodalton polypeptide was phosphorylated by incubation of tobacco (Nicotiana sylvestris) stromal extracts with either [gamma-(32)P]ATP or [(32)P]Glc-1-P. In contrast, an analogous polypeptide was not phosphorylated in extracts from a tobacco mutant deficient in plastid phosphoglucomutase activity. The results indicate that the 64 (or 62) kilodalton chloroplast stromal phosphoprotein is phosphoglucomutase.

Abstract

Constitutionally equivalent groups that occur in a single molecule are classified on the basis of their topic relationships by comparing their environments. The proposed classification extends earlier suggestions of Mislow and Raban. The existence of homotopic groups (those indistinguishable under any conditions) is related to the symmetry properties (gyrosymmetry) of rigid as well as flexible finite moieties. Stereoheterotopic groups (those that are distinguishable but occur in constitutionally equivalent environments) may be associated with various steric elements which will be fully discussed in a second paper. Each of these elements, the center, the axis, the plane and the torsional element, is divided into four mutually exclusive classes: the chiral and achiral elements of stereoisomerism; the prochiral and proachiral elements of prostereoisomerism. Of these classes, only the various centers of stereoisomerism and of prostereoisomerism are discussed in this report. Some modifications in our earlier proposals for the naming of individual stereoheterotopic groups are introduced. The utility of these new and revised terminologies for biochemical discussions is indicated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
