O'Hara had sex with a male sex doll for the BBC Three documentary ‘Sex Robots and Us’

Although the objective of reaching climax is always the same, the technology to provoke an orgasm is constantly evolving.


For example, batteries have almost become a thing of the past as these days, most sex toys are rechargeable.

They are also made from soft, body-safe materials and packaged in elegant boxes. Their features are also becoming increasingly sophisticated.

There are even app-controlled toys that can be controlled by a partner on the other side of the world.

I’ve also tested hands-free toys and even clitoral suction devices, which are gaining popularity lately, such as Sona from Lelo.
Myth of the 'veiny phallus'

In fact, in my entire collection, there is not one single realistic veiny phallus. It seems that the less realistic the toy, the better.

Whereas in the sex doll world, the tendency is to create an unattainable representation of idealised female beauty.

A sex doll isn’t just another sex toy; it’s more like a human replacement.

When the big day of the filming came, the BBC crew arrived at my flat with ‘Steven’, the sex doll I was going to test.

I couldn’t believe it when I saw the size of the box. It was like a cardboard coffin.
"I had to assemble Steven the sex doll"

Steven wasn't the man for Venus (Image: Venus O'Hara)

Not only was it incredibly heavy, it was also very difficult to move. Needless to say, it was the weirdest unboxing ever.

Especially when I discovered that I had to assemble him.

I had to screw his effeminate head onto the neck his masculine torso, which sported a very impressive six-pack. Then I lifted him out of the box, with some help.

Upon further inspection, I discovered that Steven had a kissable mouth that was also suitable for penetration.

I couldn’t resist spanking his disturbingly pert rump a couple of times. I couldn’t believe it when the slapping sound was so similar that of a human spanking sound.

After a few strikes, my arm got tired, so I lay him face up so as not to be distracted by his tempting derriere.
"The huge phallus was far too big"

Interestingly, there was a hole where his manhood was supposed to be, allowing for interchangeable dildos. One size does not fit all and the huge phallus that he came packaged with was far too big for me.

Once Steven was in position on my sofa, the crew left so that we could get down to business.

The first thing I did was rip his plastic penis off and replace it with a much smaller, curved dildo from my own collection.

This was much more manageable. I rolled a condom on it and then I straddled him.

As I bounced up and down his length, I looked down at my silicone lover. He stared blankly at the ceiling, totally devoid of any expression whatsoever. It was like having sex with someone who’s just not into you.

I couldn’t help but think how strange this all was. I was doing this to get on TV, I had to remind myself.

However, not even the prospect of my fifteen minutes of fame was enough to get me off. I needed a powerful clitoral stimulator. So I got off him and grabbed one of my most trusted sex toys. Then I straddled him again, but this time I stimulated my clitoris as I rode him.
A creepy encounter

I closed my eyes and accessed my personal mental repertoire of very human fantasies and was able to reach climax in no time.

My orgasmic relief was doubly satisfying because I was glad that my creepiest sex toy test ever was finally over.

Shortly afterwards, the crew returned and I gave my post-test interview.

We repackaged Steven and left him there in the middle of my lounge floor. I was expecting to get rid of him the following day.

Unfortunately, finding a logistics company that was prepared to collect such a big package from my penthouse apartment, with no lift, proved to be a challenge.

Finally, I found one and the poor guy who had to haul it down the stairwell almost refused to collect Steven. ‘I’ll complain to your manager’, I threatened.

Instead of arguing, he proceeded to drag the heavy box from my lounge. Even after a couple of steps, he was struggling. ‘What on earth is inside this box?’ He asked, frowning with curiosity.

‘Exercise equipment,’ I lied, and then thanked him before the closing the door. I did feel bad, briefly, but I was so relieved to see the back of Steven.
No match for the best sellers

A male sex doll could never be as popular as the rabbit vibrator, which is still the best selling female sex toy in the world. Besides, most women need clitoral stimulation to reach orgasm and love dolls like Steven cannot provide it at present.

I don’t think sex dolls will be replacing real men any time soon either. Nothing can compare to the sensations inherent to organic, consensual, human sexual encounters where there is a genuine, mutual desire.

Despite this, sex dolls could definitely be improved upon. For example, the inclusion of a range of voice-controlled features could have much more market potential.



It would amazing if a future ‘Steven’ was equipped with cunnilinguistic capabilities, a skillful thrusting pelvis with several speed options, and caressing hands.

If they ever make a male sex doll like that, let me know because I’d definitely be up for trying it. But just out of curiosity, of course.


In the end, I didn’t even get my full fifteen minutes of fame. It was closer to five. Oh well.

Alicia Amira spent thousands of dollars to make herself look as much like a plastic sex doll

Alicia Amira has undergone countless procedures and spent thousands of dollars chasing a single goal: to make herself look as much like a plastic sex doll as humanly possible. The 27-year-old has had breast implants, hip enlargements, Botox injections, lip augmentations, and more—all in the name of what she calls "bimbofication." To help fund her constant surgeries, she makes a living as a cam girl, performing for private clients while trying to pioneer a new genre of pornography she calls “bimbo porn.”


On this episode of FAMEish, VICE met up with Amira in the UK to hear why she got into body modification, what it’s like to make a living as a cam girl, and how—no matter what people say about her—the self-proclaimed feminist finds “bimbofication” empowering.

Sex Doll Inventor Claims It Has Improved His Marriage

But that's the female doll. Sergi Santos is a little worried about what will happen when they've built a male robot

Want to keep the passion in a relationship? Try adding a robotic sex doll.

That’s the recommendation of Spanish inventor Sergi Santos, who created a sex doll equipped with the latest advancements in artificial intelligence. “Samantha” is designed to respond to gentle seduction.


As a result, the 39-year-old electrical engineer said the bosomy bot allows him to get sexual release when his partner of 16 years, Maritsa Kissamitaki, isn’t in the mood.

“A man wants to feel in general that the woman is desperate to have sex with him,” Santos told Barcroft TV. “And if a man feels like the woman will not enjoy [sex] fully, most men do not like the sex. And this is the cause of many sexual problems.”


As for him and his wife, Santos said, “I need sex some times of the day that my wife doesn’t want to, and I said, ‘Look, sex is breaking already many relationships because of lack of synchronism,’ and I would not put that pressure to my marriage.”


The couple, who are based in Catalonia, sells their randy robots for between $2,834 and $7,000.

Kissamitaki told Barcroft that she doesn’t see any problems with her husband having a robot on the side.


“With couples, I think as long as there is trust in the relationship and mutual respect, then introducing a doll is something that can help,” she said. “Even if you are compatible on so many other things but maybe not sex, a doll can be a complementary element and can be a solution.”

But Santos, who is planning to build a male sex robot, admits he worries how the reverse situation could affect their relationship.

“I think I would feel jealous if she used the male sex robot,” he told Barcroft. “If I found that she likes the male doll better than me, in the sense that she doesn’t want to be with me, I’d get divorced.”

Kissamitaki would be tempted to try it out.

“I do find the idea of making a man robot interesting. I would very much like to make one. If I would personally use it, I don’t know. Probably, out of curiosity,” she said.

Artist Photographs Sex Doll To Explore Human Emotions

Sex robots could ‘change humanity completely’

SEX robots that speak, make eye contact and respond to human touch are now a reality. But experts warn there’s a sinister side that will “change humanity forever”.

SEX robots are on the rise, whether we agree with the premise or not.

These blank-faced but eerily lifelike humanoids already exist solely for human gratification, and they’re only getting more sophisticated.

The robots can engage in dirty talk, respond to human touch, and simulate sexual acts.

But what are the sexual ethics involved? Is having sex with an artificial intelligence doll a form of rape? If not, can living out the fantasy encourage rape in real life? And what about robots made to look like children?

These are some of the issues explored in a new BBC3 documentary, Sex Robots and Us, in which James Young — a 28-year-old amputee with an artificial limb — investigates an industry that’s already booming in some parts of the world.

But these robots have a dark side — and some experts warn they could change humanity forever.


HOW DO THE ROBOTS WORK?

Sergei Santos, a sex robot designer from Barcelona, is trying to bring affordable AI sex dolls to the mainstream.

Together with his wife, Maritza, he creates lifelike sex robots in his home. Sergei focuses on coding the bot’s mind, while Maritza takes care of the sensors that bring it to life.

The couple’s most famous creation is “Samantha” — one of the world’s most advanced sex robots — which retails at £2500 ($AU4565).

By putting pressure on one of its erogenous zones — hips, breasts, mouth, crotch or hands — the user can arouse the robot, which will then moan and begin to engage in dirty talk, using software similar to the voice-activated systems in your smartphone, like Siri.

Samantha also responds positively to human touch, with the ability to reach a simulated orgasm and detect when a male user is about to ejaculate.

“I’m outsourcing the manufacturing and the selling,” he tells Young. “In a factory I could easily do 200 a month.”

Neither his wife nor his mother are fazed by the dolls.

“It’s just part of my job now — it doesn’t impress me,” says Maritza. “I just hope the sensors work.”

As sex bots become more accessible and sophisticated, sellers are looking for new ways to make money off them.

Arran Squire, Sergei’s Liverpool-based business partner, even suggested stocking them in elderly people’s homes.

“Residents could have one in their room,” he suggests in an interview from his sex shop, where a doll is also stocked.

“It’s a possibility that they could share the dolls. They’re completely hygienic — everything is removable so it can all be cleaned.

“But I’m hoping that they could have their own Samantha. If people had a companion and a sex aid in a Samantha, that would take massive pressure off carers and nurses.

“I think people’s attitudes will improve towards it. I’m hoping so anyway.”

THE DARK SIDE OF SEX ROBOTS

For the most part, the robots may sound like a convenient — albeit costly — way for people to have sex. But experts warn they could “completely change humanity”.

Noel Sharkey, from the Foundation for Responsible Robotics, said: “We’re just doing all this stuff with machines because we can, and not really thinking how this could change humanity completely.

“Some people have suggested that sex robots create an attitude of ‘too-easy’ sex which is always available.”

He warned this could “take the meaning out of users’ lives” and “turn them into zombies”.

Sergei himself said he could envision men marrying sex robots over the next few decades.

“People might look at Samantha as a weird thing you read about. But before they know it, these robots will be doing their jobs, and marrying their children, their grandchildren, and their friends,” he told The Sun last year.

“They need to remember that just a few years ago mobile phones were seen as a non-essential item in society but now we can’t function without them.”

In recent years, commentators have also campaigned against sex robots by arguing it encourages people to consider women as property, due to the submissive nature of the humanoids.

Creators Sergei and Maritza dismissed these concerns.

“We’ve had a lot of feminists get in contact,” Maritza said. “Most of them avoid talking to me though. They don’t want to talk to me because I’m a woman and that goes against their argument — the idea that this is ‘by men, for men’.”

But arguably the most controversial aspect in all this is child robots, which Mr Sharkey has previously called to be outlawed.

In one scene of the documentary, Young breaks down in tears upon seeing one of his interview subjects’ latest inventions — a small-framed torso.

“What is this doll?” he asked the creator, Tokyo-based innovator Hiroshi Ishiguro.

“We have to leave it to the customer’s imagination for the actual age setting,” Ishiguro said, looking uncomfortable. “Of course, I understand what you are trying to say.

“But there might be some kind of sentiment to petite, kid-like size.”

Ishiguro says there’s no legal issues with these dolls, at least in Japan, but added: “I presume there are many ways of perceiving the issue so we only sell this model within Japan.”

In other countries — like Australia — the possession of dolls resembling children is illegal.

Last year, a father from Perth was accused of using the internet to import prohibited child sex dolls which authorities claimed resembled girls as young as six.

The charges against him carried a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $450,000.

But the creators argue that they are performing a public service by providing customers an outlet for their desires.

Speaking in London at the International Congress on Love and Sex with Robots in December, robotics philosopher Marc Behrendt of ULB University in Belgium made the highly controversial claim that child sex dolls could help protect children from sex predators.

“We can either see them as crafty pieces of engineering made up of wires, sensors, motors and equipped with a rudimentary AI brain, or on the contrary we can choose to consider them as a symbolic presentation of a human being,” he said.

“In practical terms, CSBs could be part of the solution in helping some very specific categories of paedophiles overcome or manage their morally reprehensible and illegal sexual offences.”

‘IT’S MEN WHO SHOULD BE WORRIED’

Earlier this year a US mathematician argued that it’s men who should be most worried about the rise of sex robots.

Dr Cathy O’Neil argued that it’s “entirely possible” that robots could be favoured by future women over real men.

“Perhaps it’s time for a Big Think. Are women not as capable as men of crude objectification? There’s room here for everyone’s impure thoughts and desires. Robots don’t discriminate, and they can probably give good massages,” she wrote in Bloomberg.

“I do think women could get spoiled by dashing menbots. Their standards might go up.

“They might even be lost to the dating pool altogether.”

Inventor Of Sex Doll Says It’s Been Great For His Marriage Has it? Really?

Sergi Santos made headlines when he created the first artificial intelligence (A.I.) sex doll. This doll is capable of answering questions and having a “personality,” which is a bit of a stretch, but still impressive.

The doll, named “Samantha,” requires users to romance her before using her, which is nice, because it teaches people that asking is polite and also necessary when having sex. According to Barcroft, Santos decided to create Samantha because “humans are not enough,” and that men and women view sex differently, specifically that men want to have sex all the time. It’s like Santos has never spoken with a human woman before.

He’s also been vocal about how much he loves Samantha, patting himself on the back by claiming that she’s special and that she’s improved his life for the better. Samantha has improved his marriage, especially during times when his wife doesn’t want to have sex with him and he’s desperate, because, according to him, men need to have sex constantly.

Via The Huffington Post:


A man wants to feel in general that the woman is desperate to have sex with him. And if a man feels like the woman will not enjoy [sex] fully, most men do not like the sex. And this is the cause of many sexual problems.

I need sex some times of the day that my wife doesn’t want to, and I said, ‘Look, sex is breaking already many relationships because of lack of synchronicity,’ and I would not put that pressure to my marriage.

Santos’ wife, Maritsa Kissamitaki, also spoke about her husband and Samantha, claiming that she has no problem with her husband using the doll. She said “With couples, I think as long as there is trust in the relationship and mutual respect, then introducing a doll is something that can help.”


Even though Santos thinks including Samantha in his marriage is totally fine, he’d have trouble with his wife having sex with a male sex doll. “If I found that she likes the male doll better than me, in the sense that she doesn’t want to be with me, I’d get divorced.” Such an equal marriage.

For her part, Kissamitaki said she’d be curious to try out the male doll for herself.
