The Truth Behind SEX Dolls: Myths and Realities
The origins of sex doll porn lie in humanity's desire for companionship during times when it can be hard to find it. This story dates back through history with figures like Oskar Kokoschka creating life-sized porn sex with a doll of his former love as well as dames de voyage offering comfort during long months at sea as early inspirations that eventually led to modern lesbian sex doll porn like Bild Lilli and real sex doll porn.
Over time, people have created statues and figures reflecting our desire for connection. One myth from one of the earliest civilizations has also greatly influenced modern-day porn sex doll.
Galatea and Metamorphosis
By 8 AD, Roman poet Ovid completed The Metamorphoses, an expansive narrative poem tracing human history from creation until 42 BC when Julius Caesar was deified. One tale in its pages is about Pygmalion and Galatea from Cyprus.
Pygmalion was a disillusioned sculptor who became distressed at what he perceived to be immorality of Propoetides and set himself the task of crafting an ivory statue depicting a woman, later named Galatea (though not featured in Metamorphoses). Pygmalion became so infatuated with Galatea that he treated it as his living partner, lavishing gifts and affection upon it.
Pygmalion had an unexpected experience at a festival celebrating Aphrodite when he prayed to be united with someone like Galatea from his statue, only for her to suddenly come alive after kissing it back home and they soon after married each other.
The Pygmalion legend has had a dramatic influence on culture, inspiring everything from Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale and Disney's Pinocchio to Mannequin and beyond. This impact extends far beyond literature into art forms as well as social perceptions of love and beauty.
Cultural Legacy of Pygmalion
The tale of Pygmalion first reappeared during Renaissance Europe, possibly inspiring dames de voyage. By 19th-century Europe, however, the idea that one could fall in love with a statue had taken on deeper cultural meaning.

Iwan Bloch, an expert on fantasy sex doll, coined the term "Pygmalionism," drawing upon an 1877 story about a gardener besotted with the Venus de Milo statue. Bloch described a performance where three naked women posed like statues before being observed by someone portraying Pygmalion; watching how eventually, each eventually "came to life."
This period saw the creation of rubber fantasy sex dolls, which over the decades became more realistic representations of humans.
