This scholarly study of the centuries-long history of fornicatory
dolls examines the enduring obsession with creating an idealized,
silent female sexual object and the manifestations of this desire
through the ages in mythology, literature, art, philosophy and
science. This particular sexual impulse has been expressed in a
great variety of forms such as statues, mannequins, sex dolls, and
gynoids (robots). In particular this study focuses on the evolution
of the sex doll through its original incarnation as a sack cloth
effigy, through the marketing of inflatable dolls, to the current
elaborate cyber-technology figures, in an attempt to discover the
hidden drives and desires which fuel this ongoing fantasy of
creating a perfect, powerless, silent partner.
