Importers Want to Sell More Sex Dolls in South Korea

Here is the latest on South Korea’s never-ending sex doll controversy:

A recent court ruling in favor of importing life-size sex dolls has reignited heated debate here over its possible effects on society.

While importers and supporters say sex dolls should be treated the same as other sex toys on shelves, opponents say the dolls constitute the objectification of women.

Earlier this month, the Seoul Administrative Court overturned a January 2020 decision by the customs office at Gimpo International Airport to ban the importation of life-size real doll products. The office said the dolls would harm public morals, but the court said the toys are for personal use and do not corrupt morals.

Controversy over sex dolls erupted in June 2019 when the Supreme Court ruled in favor of another doll importer that sued the government customs agency for blocking their imports. The top court stated that the government should not interfere with people’s private lives, and using sex dolls was part of that. The customs authorities then allowed imports by the specific company that filed the suit, but have banned those of other companies.

There wouldn’t be a market for these things if Korean women had a healthier attitude toward sex. In over a decade living in Korea, I only found two women who actually enjoyed sexual activities, the rest merely tolerated it as a fact of life for women.

Waaaait… are you telling me Korean women have a less healthy attitude toward sex… than… a doll?

…though I never considered maybe the doll enjoys it rather than just tolerates it.

With that in mind, I should probably give my doll a little more foreplay.

I feel guilty now.

CH – In my experience, that seems to have been the case. Sex dolls weren’t around when I was in Korea so I’ll have to leave that comparison up to you.

tagumcitytim, don’t blame the paid camptown prostitutes. To them, it was just unpleasant business for few bucks.

Korea Man, I never had a problem with camptown prostitutes.

When I finished, they simply refunded my money, gave me all the money they had, and watched me walk out the door with tears in their eyes.

It really bothered me to see them cry.

So I stopped using the same knife I used to cut onions.

CH, you never had any problem with camptown Filipina prostitutes because your right hand was your best woman.

The Beijing bot really seems to have fantasies about CH… much like our non-Canadian colleague… Hmmm…

And yet, I find myself tapping my foot and humming an old song… reminded of obscene racism by everything out of Peking lately…

The problem with sex in Korea is that Korean women have weaponized it resulting in men looking for easier ways to have sex such as the above mentioned sex dolls.

Now the Korean feminist movement seeks to further weaponize sex by using their political clout among the leftists to ban the remaining outlets for Korean men to satisfy their sexual desires.

Of course if the Korean women were smart they will know to moderate themselves, because at the end of the day all those angry men will vote for someone who will vow to crush the Korean feminists.

And me thinks that day will eventually come.
