Sex has always been the craziest pursuit of mankind. The emergence and popularity of sex dolls is a manifestation of the rapid development of the sexual revolution. Today, we will trace the history of sex dolls to help you learn more about sex dolls.

16th Century – The first sex dolls were invented by Spanish sailors in the 16th century who have been isolated during long voyages. These female sex dolls were made out of sewn cloth and called “Dame De Voyage” in French, “Dama De Vinje” in Spanish. Later, the Dutch sold some of the dolls to the Japanese during the Rangaku period, which is why sex dolls are still called “Dutch wives” today.

1918s – Austrian artist Oscar Kokoschka commissioned a life-size doll of Alma Mahler from German puppet maker Hermine Moos while he was in Dresden. But this doll did satisfy Kokoschka and he destroyed it at a party.

1930s – German surrealist artist Hans Bellmer, known as “the father figure of the modern sex doll”, has produced three more realistic dolls with increasingly sophisticated designs, which moved sex dolls further into the future.

1939s – 1945s – There are rumors that Nazi Germany made sex dolls for soldiers during World War II. But it has not been confirmed by reliable sources and is now thought to be a hoax.

1980s – The inflatable kind could be found in most sex shops during this period. But the inflatable material can only support a certain amount of weight or be reused before the seam deteriorates. So it was more suited to be gag gifts at a frat party than to actually withstand sex with a real human.

1996s – In the late 90s, the realism and practicality of sex dolls made a huge leap forward. The artist Matt McMullen began working on a lifelike silicone female mannequin and made the first realistic sex dolls for those in need.
