What Is Love Doll?

Ahhh the inflatable love doll. You may remember her (or him!) from an infamous bachelor or bachelorette party, that 1991 Fenway Park baseball game, or maybe you're just curious about what these love dolls can do for you. So what exactly is the love doll? According to the Encyclopedia of Unusal Sex Practices, "Fornicatory love dolls are those that are produced with the specific intent of being used to accommodate genital penetration." These love dolls can be made from a variety of different materials and love dolls also come in an astounding array of shapes, sizes, sexes and species.

The most common type of love doll is the, you guessed it, inflatable love doll that can be easily inflated for use and then quickly deflated for storage. Technological advances have made the ordinary inflatable love doll even more appealing and most love dolls now come equipped with vibrating penises, breasts or vaginas that can be filled with warm water, and a number of welcoming orifices. Throw in a few more dollars and your love doll becomes even more appealing with real hair, a clitoris, pubic hair and a more lifelike texture to help transform your love doll into your ideal partner. With the new materials available today for sex toy production, love dolls are now being made from silicone and from Cyberskin which are the two most skin-like products available on the market. Silicone and Cyberskin love dolls not only feel like a real person, but also provide a better penetration and masturbation experience. Unfortunately silicone love dolls and cyberskin love dolls come with a stiff price.

Love dolls are created in Asia, Africa, Europe and the United States and are usually about half the size of a human, with pliant breasts or a realistic penis although many love doll manufacturers are now creating life size love dolls to better accommodate their clients. Although love dolls are mainly male or female, animal form love dolls are also available. You can choose from an inflatable luvin' lamb love doll sheep or Miss Piglet love doll party pig that is equipped with an opening under the tail, and don't forget the inflatable love doll cow that moos when you come.

Brenda Love writes: "fornicatory dolls are used as a third person for group sex, the cold partner for a necrophile, same sex partner, and consensual partner for spanking, coprophilia, or S/M where a submissive is commanded to have sex with the doll. However, they are most often used as jokes. The June 21,1991 San Francisco Chronicle carried the story of inflatable dolls being passed around among Red Sox fans at a Fenway Park baseball game. Some of the crowd became offended by the blatant fondling of the dolls and security guards confiscated them. People occasionally use other dolls for sexual purposes as in the June 1991 case of the stolen Ronald McDonald who, several days after his abduction, was found in an apartment closet dressed in female underwear."

Please remember that it is possible for the inflatable dolls to come loose at the seams and deflate. The plastic can also be ruined by oil based lubricants, so make sure your lubricant is water based and that you regularly clean your love doll after use.
