I shouldn't be doing this on a Saturday nite...
I was flipping through the channels and landed on a SexTV episode about Real Dolls.There aren't many sexual fetishes that disturb me (beyond those that harm others without their consent), but this is seriously fucked up. There are, ostensibly, many men out there who have actual relationships with their silicone dolls. They bathe them, brush their hair, talk with them, sleep with them every night, introduce their friends to them and go on about their lives like these dolls are real girlfriends. It's so Stepford.
I like to keep an open mind, but seriously, these guys seem to have something wrong with them. I really think that this phenomenon is connected to the fear of, or even the disdain for, women. Why else would you prefer a life-sized rubber doll to a real woman? Yes, yes...most of these men talked about wanting a real girlfriend, but they didn't want to 'give up' the doll in the event they met someone.
I don't know about other women out there, but I wouldn't date a man who introduced me to his life-sized sex doll. I'm not into that kind of competition. Aside from the obvious creepiness of it all, there is the fact that a real woman could never compete - they don't age, they are built like a top-billed stripper, and they don't question the man's actions.
The inventor & creator explained his customer base:
"There are so many beautiful women walking around in the world and some men would never have the chance of dating one of them. This way, these men have that opportunity."
Wha?!
Okay, so maybe part of my repulsion stems from a truly threatened place. I am acutely aware that there are many men who are afraid of women out there and, if we weren't steps away from ruling the world, we could be voted off the planet and replaced by these rubber princesses tomorrow.
