How Realistic are Sex Dolls?

If you’ve never seen a quality sex doll, you may be picturing those cheap inflatable dolls. Even if you’ve seen pictures of a real sex doll, you might imagine her skin feeling rubbery and unnatural. This raises the question of what sex dolls feel like.

Quality sex dolls feel highly realistic. They almost feel real enough that you could mistake them for the real thing! There are, of course, some aspects that are missing, but the softness of the skin is lifelike, the feel of breasts is quite close, and the tightness of the doll’s openings is stimulating.

Although sex dolls have a long way to go to be indistinguishable from living, breathing women, they have already gone a long way. Here are some of the bigger aspects of what sex dolls feel like.

What does a sex doll’s crevices feel like?

One of the best advantages of a quality sex doll as compared to a fleshlight or a simple inflatable doll is that she comes with the full package. Boobs, butts, thighs, everything that is desirable about the female form. All these crevices offer very pleasurable oral, anal, and vaginal sex because of the textured walls inside.

Most brands allow you to customize the core features of the dolls. For example, the breasts can be made with a number of different materials to affect their softness. The softest gel option makes them just as much fun as the real thing. They are bouncy, soft, and squeezable. Hollow breasts are the second best thing. And let me tell you, the solid breast option, which was popular way in the past, is going totally obsolete!

A sex doll’s butt is usually quite firm, but manufacturers often offer an option to make the butt with injected gel, which makes it even softer! For example, the WM Doll manufacturer offers a “super soft TPE” option. This makes the doll’s body very soft, to the point of being ridiculous. However, reliability suffers, so we recommend choosing the longer-lasting medium-soft TPE option. We would appreciate it if you would check out our big booty sex dolls catalog!

The skin of a sex doll is possibly the most impressive part of today’s dolls. Made from either silicone or thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) it emulates the softness and suppleness of real skin. If warmed with a heated blanket before use (or with the premium heating system option), the doll’s skin retains heat and it emits slowly, for an increased realism.

What is sex with a sex doll like?

We are often asked about what sex with a doll feels like. To put it simply, it is as close as you can get to a real woman. The materials are very realistic; the skin is human-like and the heat is there if you use a heating blanket. However, it depends on how realistic the manufacturer made the dolls and how much effort they put into the realism aspect of them. But don’t worry! Here at Tenderdolls, we screen the manufacturers regularly to check for quality before the dolls are put online in the store. You can think of it as an extra layer of quality control, but this one comes not from the manufacturer, but from the Tenderdolls team :).

That said, a sex doll can’t yet move to be an active part of intercourse. Having sex with a doll requires some setup. At first, you have to pose her, move her out of the storage, and after you are done, clean her and prepare her for the next use (attention: cleaning is very important to avoid bacterial growth and smell!).

If this is your first time purchasing a TPE or silicone sex doll, please be sure to check the dolls that are lighter in weight first, for example, petite sex dolls. This is because they will be easier to pose with and have intercourse with. An unexperienced sex doll user might damage a doll if she is too heavy, so light dolls are the way to go! If they are heated beforehand with a supplied USB heater and with some added lube, it will feel just like the real thing!

Vaginal sex aside, oral and anal sex are other sex options that a typical sex doll provides. Keep in mind that some sex doll heads don’t have an openable mouth, but most do (usually all TPE heads have oral, but not all silicone dolls have it). Those that do, have soft lips, teeth, and a tongue, or just a textured tunnel inside. Kissing and oral sex will feel very close if you heat the doll before use. Heat is the key to making them realistic! 🙂

Lastly, anal sex. This will provide a tighter experience than vaginal. Just like with a real woman, we advise using lube. Even if you use a condom (some sex doll users do it to be more hygienic), the lube will also have to be used, and after use, it has to be cleaned out.

Last thoughts

So the answer is that sex with a sex doll can be very pleasurable, only be sure to choose a reputable manufacturer and a verified supplier like Tenderdolls! If you have yet to try sex with a doll, you will be shocked at how close they have come to the real thing!
