The History of Sex Doll

One of the mainstays of the contemporary erotic market, sex dolls are physical dolls made from TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) or silicone materials, usually in life-size. They are designed to have a realistic look and feel to fulfil an individual’s sexual fantasies and needs.

The process of making sex dolls is very elaborate and includes steps such as mould making, sculpting, colouring and hair implantation. Manufacturers endeavour to create facial features, body curves and skin textures that resemble those of real people. These love dolls often have movable joints that allow them to be posed in a variety of poses and positions.

Previous Life – “Inflatable Dolls”

The inflatable doll can be considered the precursor to the modern sex toy. There are various theories about the origin of the inflatable doll, but it is widely believed that it was born in Germany during the Second World War. At the time, the German Führer realised that war was primarily a male affair and that young soldiers were unable to satisfy their sexual needs, while also fearing the spread of STDs. Therefore, a special order was given to develop a doll that resembled a woman’s physiological structure, which would satisfy the soldiers’ needs while preventing the spread of STDs.

Beginning in the 1950s, similar dolls were sold in Germany, but it was Japan that actually commercialised them. The original inflatable dolls were made primarily of vinyl and rubber, with hard plastic skin for the body and an overall rounded, rough shape that only roughly mimicked the structure of the human body. These dolls needed to be inflated in order to be used, but were prone to cracking and leaking after regular use. In addition, their images were abstract and required imagination to complement them.

By the late 1980s, latex dolls began to appear. These dolls had more realistic hands, feet, eyes, and hair, and while not quite real enough in touch and shape, they at least had some human features and were less prone to air leaks. By the early 1990s, there were combination dolls with moulded limbs and torsos that could be posed in a number of poses, but the torsos still could not be bent, similar to models in a clothing shop.

With advances in technology and improved materials, modern love dolls have achieved a higher level of realism and movability. They use safer and more durable materials and have a look and feel closer to real people. These dolls not only fulfill one’s sexual fantasies, but also provide companionship and a sense of need fulfilment. However, there are personal moral values and ethical issues that need to be considered for those who use love dolls.

The Present Day – “Sex Doll”

In the late 1990s, thanks to advancements in medical materials and production processes, as well as a growing market demand, more realistic sex dolls started to emerge. Companies began using medical-grade soft silicone, PVC, and later TPE materials to create dolls that closely replicated the human form. These materials were chosen for their lifelike texture, elasticity, and durability, which greatly enhanced the realism of the dolls.

To further enhance the realism, companies also focused on details such as real hair transplants, anatomically accurate body parts, and realistic proportions that closely resembled those of real individuals. The dolls were designed to provide an intuitive and tactile experience that closely resembled the real thing. Additionally, the introduction of metal skeletons allowed for greater flexibility and a wider range of movements and poses. The split structure of the dolls also made cleaning more convenient.

The use of realistic sex dolls expanded beyond the adult products industry and found applications in body props, camera models, and cosplay. The market for physical dolls primarily concentrated in Japan, Europe, the United States, and other regions. Initially, China’s physical doll industry mainly focused on OEM production for foreign doll companies. However, with the emergence of national brands such as DSDOLL(EXDOLL) and WMDOLLS, Chinese manufacturers began to invest in research and development to create dolls that aligned with market aesthetics. This shift proved to be successful, and Chinese entity dolls have since gained recognition and popularity in the industry.

Looking to the Future of Sex Dolls

With the development of the social economy and the evolution of people’s mindset, the era of taboo around discussing sex has gradually faded away. Instead, we have entered a new era where the market space for physical dolls has expanded, and advancements in medical materials have allowed these love dolls to become incredibly lifelike.

In this new era, physical sex dolls have reached a level of realism that is remarkably close to real people. With the incorporation of special features such as a 37-degree thermostat to mimic human body temperature and the ability to produce realistic sounds, these beautifully crafted dolls have even been recognized as art collectibles.
