I had recently come across the news about the Mina sex doll, and of course, I had to learn more. Ever since I saw the ‘life-size’ features and almost real-life skin of the doll, I was boggled.So much so that I had to meet up with a few of my friends on the same subject. I could not get my head around why anyone would need such a doll! I mean, it is a ‘thing’ which actually looks like a living human with parts which move and bend and everything.
My friend, Jane, was the first to tell me that the reason why this doll was so popular is because of the lack of sex life most singles experience.The thought of being able to act out fantasies without the worry of rejection from a partner, sounded good to me initially.But then it suddenly felt a bit eww – to have sex with a robot or doll?Wouldn’t be a bit creepy?Unwilling to resignedly accept this fact, I tried to dig deeper to understand the purpose of the Mina doll.
It seemed that the making of the sex doll actually originated from Japan and China, by tech-loving folks who simply wanted to create more options for Penis Rings referrals without the need to actually have a partner.Then a handful of companies like WM Doll, vibrators Synthea Amatus, Irontech Doll and Tech Love Dolls got together and came up with the idea for the Mina doll, which promised a long-term sexual companion to customers who purchase it, without the hassle of finding an actual partner.It made me wonder – was this really possible?
That was when I decided to take a deeper dive into this new phenomenon and ask around to get a better understanding of the Mina sex doll.My friend Jen, who lived in Tokyo for a few months, said that there are a lot of ‘sex doll salons’ claiming to give customers a realistic experience with their product. These dolls come with interactive technology and built-in vibrations that make them feel almost like a human partner.
You know, I’ve got to say that it does sound like an interesting concept. It can help those who are too shy or embarrassed to explore their sexual desires. People whose mental health suffers because of their lack of a sex life would benefit from it too. There could be no derogatory terms or regretful moments that might have been attached to those experiences if a real partner had been involved.
As for me, I find the concept intriguing. I like that Mina dolls are customizable with various body parts and hair styles, so that customers can create their own ideas of an ideal sex partner. And the heavy duty utilisation of technology that includes even voice recognition is unprecedented, which is quite remarkable.On the other hand, I do not believe having a sex partner should only be limited to a doll.It should ideally involve a real human being, and that is what I am hoping for.
