What Sleeping With a Male Sex Doll is Like
A woman has revealed in detail what it is like to sleep with a male sex doll.
Sex columnist Karley Sciortino, 31, gave her review of her 20-minute session with Gabriel as she tested out the dolls ' skills for a documentary about male sex dolls.
The experiment aimed to test the notion that only men could have intercourse with a sex doll because women were thought to need an emotional attachment.
Each doll can be customised but the penis comes in flaccid and erect options with tests being conducted to make the penis warmer.
This would also stop a potential problem with the dolls' bodies often being too cold.
Karley, a sex columnist for Vogue and Vice from New York, described the organ as very life like with real pubic hair, a hard inside and soft outer layer.
"It feels like a real person who can't respond to you." She is filmed kissing the doll in her underwear and then having intercourse with it.
Last month, The Mirror reported how a leading expert was calling for robots to be put in care homes for the elderly to cure loneliness or be used to rehabilitate paedophiles.
Dr Kate Devlin also suggested the lifelike dolls could be used to help people with learning difficulties to teach them about sex or provide companionship.
As the first sex dolls become commercially available for personal use many experts believe they could be used for therapeutic reasons.
But if they're ever used as therapy for sex offenders Dr Devlin is unsure whether they would deter them or encourage them.
