The other day my friend asked me if I was ‘socially responsible’ enough to comment on this: a mad scientist fucking his barely legal teen sex doll. I was honestly speechless.
At first my gut reaction was to feel disgusted. The story felt like an unethical representation of an older man taking advantage of a younger, more vulnerable object, purely for his own gain. But then I started to think about it a little differently. I began to understand that it doesn’t have to be seen this way.
The mad scientist, in my opinion, is quite an ambitious person. He pushes boundaries and steps outside his comfort zone in his pursuit of knowledge and perhaps even love. By defying the idea of proper relationships and challenging societal norms, the mad scientist is doing something quite brave.
If we take out morality for a moment, it is easy to see that it is not necessarily a terrible thing if two people, or an individual and an object, enjoy each other’s company. We tend to view sex as a taboo or immoral act and have placed all these rules and expectations on it. However, if both parties are completely okay with the situation, then why not go for it?
When it comes to the barely legal teen sex toys doll, some may argue that it is still a creepy thing to do. However, I strongly believe that it is a decision that should be made upon the fact that the doll was made with the intention to be loved and cared for. This doll, despite its legal status, was clearly created to simulate an intimate relationship between two people and to give pleasure to both of them.
Moreover, by engaging with the doll in such a way, the mad scientist is able to explore certain aspects of himself and emotions he might have suppressed. He is pushing himself and discovering new dimensions of himself.
Personally, I don’t think that the mad scientist is doing anything wrong. He is using his sex doll in the way it was intended to be used. Love is a powerful emotion and it should never be viewed as disgusting or dirty. If the mad scientist is happy and fulfilling his needs in a safe, conscious way, why should we judge him for it?
I started thinking about it from a friendship perspective. We all have a need to be loved and accepted and, if two consenting people, or in this case a consenting person and an object, engage in an intimate way, then it seems cruel to deny them the right to feel pleasure. In a way, I think it can be seen as a beautiful thing.
As human beings, we often lack the ability to understand things that are outside our comfort zone and we project our own moral values on it. There is a huge stigma around having sexual relationships with sex dolls, but maybe, if we can take a step back and accept that it can bring pleasure to both parties in a safe environment, then we can look at it from a more accepting perspective.
