Sex doll

Sex dolls are inflatable 'sex toys' (sometimes giving as a 'gag gift' at Bachelor Parties) with the likeness of a human being. They are often used sexually by members of both sexes. Sometimes people will dress or act as a sex doll, as a form of sexual objectification. A sample of a sex doll in a her traveling box

Robot fetishism is the name popularly used to describe a fetishistic attraction to humanoid or non-humanoid robots, or people dressed in robot costumes. A related fetish is agalmatophilia, which involves attraction to mannequins or statues. A common fantasy related to these fetishes involves transformation into a robot, mannequin, or statue, and can be viewed as a form of erotic objectification.

It is sometimes referred to by the initials ASFR, from the alt.sex.fetish.robots newsgroup.

The gynoid in Fritz Lang's film Metropolis can be viewed as an early example of the robot as fetish object. In Star Trek: The Next Generation, the android, Data, was the object of sexual desire more than once up to actual sex and he was extensively programmed with numerous sexual techniques.

The fetish artist Hajime Sorayama is notable for his depiction of robots as erotic objects.
