Physical doll in history: Japanese ＂Dutch wife＂ thanks to sailors in the 17th century

Although there are many stories and studies about the body doll that can prove that the body doll can be traced back to the 8th century, it was not until the 16th century that Spanish and French sailors invented the original version of the body doll. These dolls serve as the perfect companion for sailors who have been isolated from the world during the long voyage, because they find that in some ways, they can meet their basic needs - both emotionally and physically.

 

In the late 17th century, Dutch sailors transformed this simple doll prototype and sewed masturbation dolls with broken cloth by hand. These dolls have received a warm response from sailors in Spain, France, Germany and other countries.

 

"These dolls are made of worn-out cloth and old clothes, which are the direct images of today's lifelike companion robots and physical dolls."

 

Japanese "Dutch Wife"

 

Thanks to Dutch sailors in the 17th century, physical dolls are very popular in Japanese society. Most of these dolls are hand sewn with soft leather, which is also related to the Japanese interest in human dolls. At that time, it was very easy to make these human shaped dolls or leather dolls, and people could make them without paying a big price. So far, most Japanese still call modern physical dolls "Dutch wives", which also explains the history and popularity of Japanese physical dolls.

 

Germany -- the birthplace of commercial physical dolls

 

In the 1950s, the first full-size 1:1 real doll for commercial use appeared. Many people can imagine that Germany is the first country to commercialize physical dolls. Of course, this may be related to the infamous Hitler, but it is still inconclusive.

 

The sexy and fashionable doll in the picture was made by imitating the famous comic character "Lily" at that time. At that time, it could not be "used". It was named "Bild Lilli" and was launched in 1955. It was not officially stopped until 1964.

 

Physical dolls enter the United States

 

In the 1960s, the sale of adult toys and products by mail became legal in the United States. It was then that many adult magazines began to advertise them for the first time.

 

By 1980, adult dolls were available in most local people's supply stores. Although they were only inflatable at that time, they could hardly be reused. These inflatable dolls can only bear a certain weight. In short, they are not suitable for people of all shapes and needs. However, because of some active demand, they still maintain a stable supply.
