Realbotix makes realistic dolls and moved into the sex robot market last year with the launch of a female version. The female sex robots were so successful the company decided to make a male version.
Caroline West, scholar in sexuality studies at DCU, saw some of the sex dolls at the Porn Awards in Vegas.
"They do feel realistic to the touch although they don't look real. The seller told me he and his wife often brought a doll to bed for a threesome, which certainly avoids a lot of awkward conversations like sleep arrangement discussions and uncomfortable goodbyes in the morning."Ms West says that there is no need to panic that the sex dolls will replace real life men.
"With 8 billion people on the planet, its a case of different strokes for different folks. And with the arrival of sex robots, some of those strokes will be mechanical in nature. "There are many reasons why people use mechanical devices for sexual gratification, ranging from exploration of desire, curiosity, trauma, or simple sexual pleasure." "We need to move past fear mongering and encourage open dialogue about sex and whats healthy and consensual for each individual, even if it doesn't turn us on personally."
