Apparently there is a subculture of men (and some women) who own 1.4-meter or taller silicone female dolls, and treat them as real people. It’s not always a sex thing. The dolls serve as surrogate daughters, girlfriends or companions., and even take them on outings on the subway or to the countryside for photo shoots.
The article highlights several Chinese men and their dolls, but it seems these dolls are also popular in Japan, the USA and Europe.
