I just heard the news that a Britney Spears sex doll is hitting the market. I couldn’t believe my ears! I was totally speechless and said with amazement, “You’re not serious!” I was truly blindsided by this news. It’s not every day you hear about a celebrity sex doll.
The sex dolls are named after the artist, and the website that is selling them says they are “custom-designed to look just like the true Britney.” Of course, vibrators it just looks like her, but this seemed extremely weird. I mean, she is a real person.
I thought this was just a marketing ploy by the producers of the dolls. I knew that there was no way Britney had authorized the making of the sex dolls in her image. Then I thought, is this even legal? Celebrity sex dolls seemed like a giant infringement on Britney’s privacy. To think that someone is making money off of her likeness without her consent just made me nauseous.
My jaw dropped when I stumbled upon the reviews of the dolls. People were actually quite pleased with them, writing about how realistic they were and sharing all sorts of stories. It was really strange to see people talking about having intimate sessions with a doll that looks like Britney. People were even posting pictures of their dolls alongside the real Britney, and it was very difficult to tell them apart.
I just couldn’t wrap my head around this whole thing. I find it hard to believe that in this day and age, something like this would be able to exist. It goes to show that people will do anything to make a buck.
Others argued that the dolls are a good way to cope with loneliness and bring some joy to people’s lives. I would imagine that one could argue that a celebrity sex doll could be seen as similar to a celebrity poster, vibrators an action figure, or a bobble head. But I was still just really confused as to how this could actually exist? I suppose anything is possible.
I honestly just don’t know what to say about the whole Britney Spears sex doll situation. It’s hard for me to accept that something like this actually exists in the world. I just can’t comprehend why anyone would want this kind of product. To me, it just implies that British Spears is merely an object, rather than a real person.
It disgusts me to realize that there is a market for these kinds of dolls. A Britney Spears sex doll may please some people, but for me it just reinforces the dehumanization of women. It’s hard to believe that in 2021, society still objectifies women to such an extent.
I’m not sure if anyone else is as shocked as I am at the reality of these dolls, but I’m deeply disturbed by it. The whole Britney Spears sex doll situation seems like a massive violation of her privacy, whether she authorized it or not. If she did authorize it, I still find it extremely creepy, and feel like it sends a message to society that it’s OK to reduce a person down to just a sexual object. Either way, it’s not a message that I find to be beneficial to our society.
