I am hell on dolls, I've destroyed a french madam, beheaed an s 18 and now KaLi has devoloped large rips in her rear end and has lost one of her arms.I haave made an attempt to repair her but I'm afraid the repairs won't last. Throwing her up in the attic probably didnt help much. Anyway finances being what they are today, upgrading to a realdoll or even replacing the !st PC is prohibitive. I was wondering about mannequins. I am looking for a seated mannequin,possibly large breasted and not terribly expensive. i dont have sex with my doll, i just like to dress her and masturbate Is there a good mannequin out there somewhere, somebody that makes something i can dress. It needs to be fairly near my size, as she will wear some of my old things. Thanks in advance for your help.

Sadly this isn't all that surprising. There's that one site that repairs dolls, and has all the photos of the damage to the dolls before the repairs. There's plastic breasts bitten off, clear bite marks, severed/ torn limbs etc.

There's some serious poo poo going on here...

This is a Good topic. And, yes, a repair course would be a very good idea, especially for those of us less skillful in repair and maintenance. Unfortunately I don't think our local adult college could handle that, so instruction videos is the next best idea.

I have found the thumbnail instructions of owners who have done repair brilliant but, for me, inadequate as there are too many gaps in the instruction, especially when at ones attempt it does not go according to script (Which it never has).

The other excellent idea is regional repair agencies for major work.
In Australia this might be one for you MechWizard??

Either send the doll to an address OR do a house call. In the case of long distance, freight or travel might be expensive but, - well I can only speak for myself -, my Tash is worth it. I can even provide board and lodging - if a few days are required for the repair - in a sub tropical area with beautiful beaches. So it could be a working holiday.

The other point I would like to add is that sometimes the various doll forums can be misleading in that the enthusiasm and exuberance of members, together with clever trick photography, can lead one to believe the dolls are more than they are in reality.
When Natasha's vaginal tear (amongst other things) occurred so early in her life I thought I had a really bad deal. Not so. They are very delicate creatures and repair is required (sometimes more, sometimes less) from pretty much the get go.

So, yes, One does have to take a repair course to own a Doll. Currently this is provided courtesy of the good people in the various forums with their instructions and thumbnails. It is appreciated.

Anyone else go through that phase in your early-mid teens where you were still too immature and naive etc etc to be capable of or even WANT a real girlfriend, but your hormones made you utterly obsessive about sex so that dichotomy made you chase girls way out of your league that deep down you hated the personalities of but they were popular cos at 14/15 cos they had the biggest racks etc?
Really, all you wanted to do was play Playstation games and stuff with your mates and, but every form of media and your hormones are telling you you're nothing unless you've screwed at least 30 people by 15!

Had I had a TB back then, I would have been one happy bunny of a teenager instead of the angsty, whiney, nauseating "why don't girls like me" teenager. I actually had a teddy bear from my childhood that I tried to fool around with back then, so it's very fitting that my doll of choice (at least in my girlfriend's abscence) should be a TB!

All I know is, when I'm all growed up with kids of my own, if I have a son who seems to be having the same adolescence I had, he'll be getting a gorgeous plush girlfriend to see him through the tough times!

Looking back, after having gone through massive amounts of rejection for 20 years before I finally just gave up and got the dolls, I think I would rather have had them beforehand. I wouldn't have spent 20 years depressed and suicidal.

Ok guys,

I apologise in advance for what I am about to say OK.

My intro into sex was finding out how to masturbate, cause nobody told me.
Then I had to learn how to seduce girls so I could, eventually, have sex with one.

This was the way of things when I was an ado. (I'm now 63).

These days, there's no problem with girls getting the contraceptive pill at the legal age.

So, there's no big hang up about having sex anymore.

OK, this is where I risk to upset peeps. The natural sex progression is how I described it. However, if one was to introduce a love doll to a young person, there is a risk that that young person might mature having a fixation towards dolls.

I remember myself, when I was a young teen, praying and wishing for a girl to be by my side in bed. Our hormones are so dominant that we see sex everywhere. That has been like that since time began.

I would certainly supply my young son with condoms, but I would NEVER buy/supply him with a love doll.

RG first.......love dolls second.

I can't imagine anything more depressing for an adolescent male than having to masturbate using a device provided to him by his parents.
That's one subject I am grateful never came up between me and my folks.

If I had something like a realdoll when I was that age I would have hosed it to pieces in no time flat, it's just as well I didn't.

I wouldn't get a doll of any sort for a lonely teenage boy. All it would take is one hint, one glimpse, one loose word when he's with his peers, and the kid would be "outed as a pervert" and destroyed socially.

Let him go the traditional route with a tube sock and a pinup on the wall or a secret magazine.

I am now stupefied on my own decision on choosing my own RealDoll. I was thinking of making it look like the adult version of Tiffany Brissette:

But with me being a big Small Wonder Fan in the 80s (I'm 28 now) (please, no discussions on how VICI should've been 18+) I'm probably biased. However, I did see a close relationship with Tiff's face and Face 14 (Rui) on RealDoll.com, so here's a pic, just to make a comparison:

Any suggestions before I make the final one?

Thanks for all the suggestions, however, I don't know at this time because the decision will have to take some time and quite a bit of $. Unfortunately, none of these I have at this moment.

However, I am saving up for the RealDoll of my choice, and by the seemingly unanimous decision by these two replies, Face 14 it is. Now, since I have written something here, describing Tiffany Brissette's composure (for those who don't wanna go there, she's 5'4", 125 lbs, dunno bout her measurements), so if anyone who knows a bit more about this and if anyone knows a bit more about Tiffany today, please let me know.

I have decided on a name, however Tiffany's going to be the middle name. I've been thinking of this name ever since 1997 (ever since before I even knew that RealDolls existed), and the name is:

Alexandra Tiffany Tilbrook.

Alexandra is a name that I like, never of a previous female friend (I never knew anyone named Alexandra personally); Tiffany, of course, is from Tiffany Brissette; and Tilbrook is from Glenn Tilbrook, formerly of Squeeze, now a solo artist. I have some nicknames of "Alexa", "Tiff" or "Tiffy" but never "Alex". I don't know why, but it seemed like Alex for Alexandra never fit for me.

Thanks a lot,

Good Lord. Sex dolls normally have a distinctive "corpse" look to them, but that thing... jeez. It's like the Uncanny Valley running a freight truck into my eyeballs. The nearly-circular mouth, the boneless bend in the jawline, the praying-mantis hand pose with poorly-printed red nails, the enormous way-too-big pants, the solid block of toes...

It looks like something from a low-budget but super-terrifying horror movie--an alien trying to imitate a human's look and failing in subtle, brutal ways. Blegh, I'd hate to be in the same room as that thing. It must take a certain kind of mental fracture to want to have sex with it--and an even deeper one to prefer sex with it over people.

Midiman, LowTax just doesn't really care about the board anymore. If you emailed him, he probably just tossed it in the trash with the rest of the hundreds he gets on a daily basis.....

Nice chatting with you all. I may come by later to see how things are.

Well, JazzPlayer,
LowTax DID read my email, he posted it on the forum and essentially brought me under attack. My original email was pointing out a number of their own forum rules violations and expressing concern that a site that claimed to be Comedy and Satire was crossing the line when they started poking fun at a challenged individuals deformities rather than his doll fetish.

I already have Caligasti's real name and address. I popped a post up there a short time ago that only he would pick up on, but perhaps he can't even get back on the site. It is questionable whether I have a strong legal argument with Caligasti, however, if I should be successful at finding Deacon Blue's contact info I WILL sue him for slander, and whether or not I am successful in getting a damages reward would only be a small consolation to the knowledge that he will spend thousands of non-recoverable dollars fighting the action. Mine expenses are tax deductible However, I am very patient, and I'm not losing any sleep over it. As a matter of fact, I don't even browse the SA thread anymore.

Let's face it JazzPlayer, Caligasti shows all the signs of a latent doll lover! I need not present his case, he is doing a good enough job on it with his obsessiveness on the subject. He typically blames us for his obsessive interest and his 'incontinent' mind

PV, I think JazzPlayer's advice is GOOD advice !
We do not need to stir the waters to continue to collect the information we need.

Cheers,

"Vicki is hotter than Punky!" posted:

Hi all.

"I am CasperGhostboy, and I love dolls."

It took me about eighteen years to have the tenacity to actually say that phrase. I had just became open about it about a month ago. I made my first (and second) post in the RealDoll forum because I needed advice in helping me select a RealDoll that looked like an adult version of my favorite star in the 1980s, Tiffany Brissette, or Vicki/Vanessa on Small Wonder because it was the one main factor in getting me all hooked onto loving all kinds of artificial people.

I am a 28 y.o male living in Virginia Beach, Virginia. At this very moment, I know of nobody in my "little world" that shares the same feelings as I. What I am talking about is that I know no one in Virginia Beach (or the surrounding Hampton Roads/Peninsula area) that loves dolls or even mannequins.

I know what it's like to have this feeling. And it is good. Other people that I know of, some disapprove of it, some take it lightly, others just laugh in my face and tell me to "get off of it" and "(You're) the only one that feels this way" (literally).

I started my own group somewhere on the Web, but when one of the mods of this forum (Davecat) joined my group and after a few days, I knew that I was not alone. We started talking almost daily over YIM. He even referred me to this forum. And I'm glad that I'm not alone.

Right now, the only artificial female that I have is called a "Paris Love Doll" (cost me only $16 from some online adult toy store, an inflatable, (EDIT) and a much more cheaper version), next month I hope to get myself a mannequin and then somewhere along the road, "upgrade" to a RealDoll.

I own the movie Mannequin on DVD and watch it almost weekly. That movie also got me started into loving artificial people. I write stories that do imply what some of us (including myself) want with our artificial lovers tto do, come to life. It can be seen here (link broken ). Some range from the kooky to the most serious, some or all of the ranges are included in one story!

All-in-all, I thank Davecat for telling me about this forum, and somehow him and I are like "best friends" even though we've never met.

I look forward to gaining friends and colleagues through this forum.

I am a big Mac addict (even though I'm a "slave" to Windows, I use the "Sad Mac" image as my avatar), so I'm free to talk a bit about the Mac OS.

But finally, after eighteen years of "hiding" from almost everyone that I knew about this, I'm glad to be open about it.

Will see all of you down the road,

CasperGhostboy

If you're someone who sees your doll as a sit-in until Ms. Perfect comes along, and want to pretend you're "getting some" in the meantime, that's one thing. But if you claim to "love dolls", in that you have a true attraction to them, why would you wish them real? Then they would no longer be dolls.

Actually, I don't see my doll as a "sit-in until Ms. Perfect comes". I do love dolls, and there may be this thing inside me that wishes them to be real, but I know it cannot be true. It's just a fantasy that I have. I do not have the option of having anyone real in my life, except some buddy-friends. But we all have the need to be loved, needed and such, but for us that don't have the option of having a real mate, including myself, have the fallback on the doll, and with that, I (and most of us) are complete. I am complete with my doll, and I'm happy about it.

I thank you all for the welcomes and such, but we all (should) know about the "Galatea Fantasy" and we know it all comes from the Greek myth of Pygmalion, but I do know that it all isn't true.

Due to the limited (or non-existent) "consciousness" of dolls and mannequins, and while I do watch the movie Mannequin, but I do know that I get a better experience with dolls and mannequins than I do with real people. It's that mystique with dolls and mannequins that makes me want them more than real people.

I smoke. Yes, I do admit that I do smoke (just cigarettes). Dolls/mannequins would not get on my bad side unlike one person that I dated (and she dumped me four times over it) did. (But this is just one person. I am not saying that all women would do the same.)

I am not looking for the "realisticness" of sex with a doll. I just want the companionship that I have been "starved of" for over five years of being without a "real" woman/date. And with a doll/mannequin, I have that companionship. (Ask Davecat. He knows about it and will gladly tell you all how about Alexa and I are getting along better than I would have ever been.)

See here, I am just looking for some companionship that I need, and with a doll/mannequin, I have it. I'm not looking for having a doll or a mannequin just for the sex or some twisted, dirty perception of a woman. No, I value life and I value beauty, internal and external. It's just manufactured beauty that I pine for.

I understand that some of you are happy with your dolls, some of you are happily married, but we all are different. I, for one, am happy with a doll. I was once a closet doll lover until it came out about a month ago.

And finally, I understand that the movie that was mentioned in this post was all fiction and I was probably talking out of my rear end, but that was on my mind, and all the welcomes mentioned here welcoming me as a TDF member and saying how they related to me as how they were in the closet until they somehow enacted on it outweighed the other comments.

I am looking for like-minded friends that share the same interests as me. I am also looking for people who can guide me in the right direction to help me find the right doll or mannequin, and would answer any questions that I have. I am not looking for disappointment in my new-found openness of being a doll lover.

Hope I cleared the air,
CasperGhostboy

I know. She looked better in Mannequin than she did in Sex In The City. But being who we are, we're probably differentated. Some people said that Kim was better in SITC, but I didn't have HBO for the #'s of years it was on and the heavily-edited reruns on TBS don't do it much justice.

Inkling wrote:
3) You description of andriods in previous post remind me of at least half the females with whom I went out on a date. Oh, and a third of them couldn't speak and had limited consciousness. For me, it she were real, that would be having to put up with poo poo. A doll cannot help herself, so if she cannot speak, that's not as bad. Just like if someone were mentally retarded - they can't help themselves. If a normal person were like that, it would be worse.

Being a big Small Wonder fan when it was on from 1985 to 1989, Tiffany Brissette did a wonderful (no pun intended) job on the show, both as VICI and the "upgrade" Vanessa. It was hard work on the poor little girl. But today's androids match up with, I agree, some of the females that I have dated, even the ones that want to date me.

And if my doll was real as day, not only would I have to put up with her poo poo, but she would have to put up with my poo poo also. I can have an angry streak. I have noted this in my stories, The Journey To Love, versions 1-7 (yes seven!).

The eternal silence of dolls are bliss. (As they say, silence is golden.) They don't talk back to you, or even complain over the littlest things. (Now I'm not saying all females would do this, but what I have observed, this I know would happen.)

Inkling wrote:
I'd want dolls more like woman, but I'd never want them to try to completely duplicate one.

I've seen folks make the same mistakes with attempts on AI. You don't want them to be more human. What I mean is, you want AI to have no feelings, be logical, and not self-contradictory. There are other human down-sides as well. I wouldn't want a computer to be fully human.


And if you've ever seen the Small Wonder episode "The Bad Seedling" (where Vanessa was introduced), then you may know how mistake-prone AI could be. According to the web site for Small Wonder, Vanessa could pass the Turing test to be equal in as a 12-year-old female.

Some of us treat our dolls like human beings. I know that I do. Some of us give them a personality. Most of us give our dolls names (maybe all of us here on TDF do), which mine is Alexandra (Alexa, Tiff, Tiffy) Tiffany Tilbrook.

AI should not have feelings, but be logical and not be self-contradictory. However, when Ted Lawson (Dick Christie) made Vanessa (Tiffany Brissette), Vanessa was acting like a 12-year-old girl. Even the site says that androids/gynoids like VICI/Vanessa would act like "surrogate children" for the elderly, unwed bachelors looking for a way to raise children, or even entertainment and assistive people in nursing homes and otherwise.

But I own an adult doll, and while I don't wish for it to be human in any sense whatsoever (alright, somewhat, but not all the time), and although that I write about it coming to life, but that's for entertainment purposes only, ie, a fanfiction of the movie Mannequin.

Dolls, IMHO, are better in my perspective and let me know that I have something, even though not organic, to give me companionship and to give me someone/something to talk to when no one else will.

Again, thanks,
