Also regarding the mechanics: I obviously wasn't there so I can't say for certain, but whenever anyone gives anecdotes like this I think that they're probably exaggerating things. More likely than not they were just having some fun and joking around. I'm sure if someone showed up with a doll like this at, for example, a chess club that I go to, as long as it was mostly younger males, we'd probably end up talking about that also. That doesn't mean that we would actually do such a thing or not think sex dolls are weird.
Considering the fact I have driven near 15,000 miles and talked to hundreds of people, there is no doubt that women seemed less agitated about dolls than men.
On the mechanics? Normally mechanics wouldn't all come running to check out the doll. I have been around people long enough to know genuine interest. They all found the doll attractive. A lot of guys might tend to show negative feelings only because of low self esteem. They are worried that others might look poorly on them if they expressed interest. However, when guys see other guys interested and no one is getting negative feedback, they generally will feel comfortable enough to express their true feelings
Another example of how things could get misconstrued, a doctor friend and his wife were over for supper the other night and watched my documentary trailer, after meeting my three movie dolls. His wife said, what do you think?
He said, "I find it kind of sad." Further questioning from me revealed that he not only found the dolls sad but any form of masturbation because he felt sex was something to be enjoyed between two people. So it would not have matter if it was the doll or a hand. He then went on to say, he had no problem with it, and didn't oppose it. He just found it sad. I think I have had perhaps 4 men out of more than a hundred that have said they would not use the doll if given the chance.
I wonder what the true percentage of 2p2 members in this thread would be that would try masturbating with a doll if no one else could find out?
Generally most I have asked was privately on a on on one basis, and it yielded a result as stated above. Perhaps poker players are a different demographic as to sexual encounters
I can set a poll up at TDC or TDF if you would like, or you could set one up here. Mind you there are always those out there that can stack polls, whereas questioning people face to face, you know you got an honest answer and only one answer per person
