The internet; basically anyone with a Smartphone, has
been agog with excitement, disgust, wonder and plethora of other emotions over
the emergence of some plastic life-like beings; sex dolls. A sex doll, love
doll, blow up doll is a type of sex toy in the size and shape of a sexual partner
for aid in masturbation and is known in a superfluity of names. Though I
believe that masturbation is an act of self-pleasure, meaning as long as you
are not doing it with a living being, it is masturbation. This is an
information for those who think that having sex with a sex doll is not masturbation.
Funny thing is that these sex dolls are not new. They
were originally invented in the 17th century by Dutch sailors who
would be isolated at sea during long voyage. These masturbatory dolls, referred
to by the French as ‘dame de voyage’ and by the Spanish as ‘dame de viaje’,
were made of sewn cloth or clothes and were a direct predecessor to today’s sex
dolls. The term ‘Dutch wives’ is still sometimes used in Japan to refer to sex
dolls. One of the earliest appearances of manufactured sex dolls dates to 1908
in Iwan Bloch’s The Sexual Life of our Time. Bloch wrote: “In the connection we
may refer to fornicatory act affected with artificial imitation of the human
body, or of individual part of the body. There exist true Vaucansons in this
province of pornographic technology, clever machines who, from rubber and other
plastic materials, prepare entire male or female bodies, which, as homes or dames de voyage, sub
serve fornicatory purposes. More especially are the genital organs represented
in a manner true to nature. Even the secretion of Bartholin’s glans is
imitated, by means of a ‘pneumatic tube’ filled with oil. Similarly, by means
of fluid and suitable apparatus, the ejaculation of the semen is imitated such
artificial human beings are actually offered for sale in the catalogue of
certain manufacturers of ‘Persian rubber articles’.” Apparently, while were
fighting the civil war, sex dolls were bought.
Over time, the production material of sex dolls has improved.
From old sewn clothes to vinyl to latex and now, silicone. Which feels like
human skin. And the quality of sex dolls themselves has improved from sex dolls
to sex robots. Sex robots or sexbots
are anthropomorphic sex dolls, meaning that it has human qualities. It has
artificial intelligence (AI) and can properly interact with you, observe you
and know your likes and dislikes both sexually and relationship wise. You can
now customise a sex robot exactly to your liking from 19 different face options
to 11 different styles of labia (the folding of tissue at the opening of the
vagina). Depending on which model you choose, your sex robot can also display
certain traits and personalities, perform up to 50 automated sex positions and
maybe even “orgasm”.
Technological
development has made sex robots more lifelike than ever. But they have sparked
a host of questions about what consequences their presence will have. Anti sex
robots argue that sex robots would replace human interaction and connection and
that their availability would further increase the perception of sex as a
commodity. Pro sex robots say some people already treat sex as a commodity, that
it’s a matter of choice and preference and that relationship with robots would
never replace human interaction that sex robots are more for socially-awkward
individuals than anybody else.
