Sex dolls are typically marketed towards men, but recent years have seen an increase in dolls designed for women as well. User feedback from both groups offers a unique look at how these dolls are used and how different features appeal to men and women.
For men, sex dolls are often valued for their realistic features, particularly body shapes and orifice design. Men commonly prefer dolls with fuller figures or those that closely resemble their ideal body types. Lifelike facial features and the ability to choose hair color, eye shape, and skin tone are also highly rated. Many men appreciate dolls that offer a variety of textures and tightness in their orifices, as these add to the sensation of realism.
For women, dolls tend to emphasize companionship and emotional connection, although sexual pleasure features are still a key consideration. Many women prefer dolls with a realistic, human-like appearance but also seek models with soft, flexible joints and comfortable material. For some, a doll that can hold conversations or have a more interactive role in intimacy is a unique and desirable feature.
In both cases, customization options and the ability to personalize the doll to fit specific preferences—whether for physical appearance or features—are highly valued. Both men and women are increasingly looking for dolls that offer a sense of companionship and emotional engagement, beyond just sexual satisfaction.
