From novelty shop toys to full-size dolls… I don’t think this progression is random
I was thinking about this the other day and I’m curious how many of you followed a similar path, because the more I talk to guys in this space, the less random it all seems. Back in the 90’s, I remember going into one of those novelty shops and buying my first “pocket pussy" for $30. It felt like a big deal at the time. You had to work up the nerve just to walk in, everything was behind glass, and you grabbed something quick and got out. If you thought about going beyond that

Dating Women While Owning a Doll, Supplementing the Experience, Not Replacing It
Dating today can feel like a constant pressure cooker. I talk to men all the time in my NYC showroom, “Dolls You Can Touch.” They’re not looking to quit dating, they’re just tired of feeling like every date is a make or break scenario. The difference is they want to move from a scarcity mindset to one of abundance. Take Steve, he’s 35, new to the city, dates often but strikes out more than he’d like. The competition is real, and it wears on you. He ended up buying a companion

Why Are Some Men Weirded Out by Other Men Owning Sex Dolls?
Why does the doll hobby make so many men uncomfortable? One thing I have noticed over the years is that the harshest criticism of the doll hobby usually does not come from women. It comes from other men. You see it all the time. A guy mentions owning a doll or even being curious about one and immediately another guy jumps in with something like “bro that’s weird” or “why don’t you just meet a real woman.” Sometimes they go even further and say something like “how could a guy

Truckers, Lot Lizards, and the Wild World of My Most Vocal Customers - Tales of A Doll Salesman
In a lot of my stories, I’ve shared wild situations where guys got caught with their doll by a wife or girlfriend. But not every story in this business is some soap opera. Sometimes, it’s just about understanding the kind of men who get into the hobby, and honestly, truckers are one of the biggest groups that surprise people. Now, I’m not just talking about long-haul truckers who live out of their cabs. Yeah, there’s plenty of those guys who bring their dolls on the road, but

Should Women Feel Threatened by AI Girlfriends and Dolls?
I’ve been in the doll industry for five years and I run a small showroom in New York City. I meet everybody. Blue collar, white collar, guys in relationships, guys who’ve checked out of the dating market, even a former college football player over six feet tall with a girlfriend who was curious and wanted to try one as he didn't live with her yet. The stereotype about who buys is outdated. The tech and the use cases have changed. Let's start with AI girlfriends. A few years a

My Wife Is Cool With My Doll - The social dynamic of married doll enthusiasts and their wives
Most people assume that guys into dolls are lonely bachelors holed up in some dark apartment with anime posters on the wall and a microwave dinner in the oven. But here’s the twist, some of the most devoted doll collectors I’ve met are actually married. And not secretly married. I’m talkin' “the wife knows, helps pick 'em out, and even critiques the breast size” kind of married. These couples are usually over 40, often childless or empty nesters. And while it’s true some guys

When They Call Doll Owners Losers and Incels - That will change in ten years
As a doll owner, have you ever been called a loser or an incel? You ever mention to a friend that you own a doll and suddenly the whole vibe changes? You get that weird look like you just confessed to eating your own toenails. Or worse, someone accuses you of necrophilia like you’re doing something sick or twisted. But let’s be real here.

What Happens to the Touch-Starved Men of the Arab World? And Why Dolls Might Be Part of the Solution. (God bless the West)
Sex dolls are banned from almost every country that is majority Muslim Down the block from me where I live in New York City, there’s a smoke shop owned by a group of young Yemeni guys in their early 20s. Smart kids, fluent in English, selling unlicensed cannabis and doing their thing. I see them often. One day I told them that I work in the doll business and showed them a couple pictures of one of my Dolls, and one of them goes, “If this was legal in Yemen, you would make so
