When I heard about the Total Recall sex doll the first thing that came to mind was ‘Boobs? In my face?’ I’m sure you know what I’m talking about, the crazy mannequin with huge boobs that graced our screens in the early 90’s Arnold Schwarzenegger movie. As someone who was a fan of that movie as a kid, I just had to find out more about this ‘boobs sex doll’.
The first thing that I learned is that the model used in the film was actually called the ‘Goldmare’ doll, and it was created by a company called ‘Novelty House’ in Japan. It was a full-size, lifelike mannequin complete with sculpted anatomically accurate breasts. It even had large blue eyes and an oblong face, just like the ones in the movie.
For me, this was an interesting mix of nostalgia and technology, but I know that it won’t be for everyone. I’ve always been of the opinion that technology should be used to enhance our lives, not to create manufactured perfect versions of ourselves. But I must admit that there is something kind of cool in knowing that the doll used in the movie has been brought back to life, in a way.
The debate over the role that sex dolls and robots should play in our lives is something that I find fascinating. I know people on both sides of the argument, with some arguing that it’s all OK because it’s just a fun way to spend some time, and vibrators others arguing that it goes against their moral code. But I think that’s something that we each need to decide for ourselves.
The one thing that I think we can all agree on is that sex dolls, and robots in general, have come a long way since the early days of the Total Recall sex doll. These days, sex dolls are much more advanced, both in terms of realism and the range of options available. Companies like Sol Dolls and RealBotix are pushing the boundaries of what is possible with sex dolls, and it’s interesting to see how the technology is developing.
For me, I’m not sure if I would ever buy a sex doll, but I can certainly see the appeal. There’s something comforting and liberating in knowing that your sexual fantasies can be brought to life with the help of technology, and that you don’t have to rely on the opinion of another person for satisfaction.
But at the same time, I do worry about what this could mean for human relationships and empathy. Sex is an emotional activity, and I’m not sure if it’s really healthy to replace that with a lifeless doll. But it could just be that I’m stuck in my ways and that it’s something that society will have to grapple with as it evolves.
Moving past the moral implications, I think it’s clear that robot dolls have come a long way since the retro-chic days of the Total Recall boobs sex doll. From hyperrealistic options to dolls that are made to order, you can have your perfect robotic companion come to life right before your eyes. Companies are also experimenting with the option to rent them too, so you don’t even have to commit to the purchase.
But my main takeaway from all this is that our relationship with robots will be something that we have to navigate carefully. I hope that it’s something that’s done responsibly and sex dolls with ethics in mind, as we don’t want to create a future where robots are seen as replacements for human relationships. But that’s a decision we’ll all have to make together.
