Gender analysis of Ex Machina


A couple of years ago I wrote a review of the thought-provoking and disturbing 2015 science fiction film Ex Machina that dealt with the interaction of people with highly developed robots that are almost indistinguishable from humans, and what kind of sensibilities we might reasonably expect them to have.

Via Andrea James, I came across this interesting analysis of the gender issues raised by that film, something that was discussed quite a bit in the comments that followed my review. Note that those comments and this analysis contain spoilers.
