After years of heated debate in the doll community, the world is witnessing what some might call “The Small Dollpocalyse.” This week, several sex doll brands abruptly – and all-at-once – announced the discontinuation of many models, particularly those under 140cm tall. This included name-brands like WM and Irokebijin, with Jiusheng (& MLW) halting all production until further notice (on Dec 11, 2025). This controversial topic re-emerged many times over the years – most recently with the SHEIN protests in Paris, France – but this time it’s different. Now, the Chinese government and police have gotten involved, cracking down on doll factories overnight. Here’s what I found out:
The Lead-up
On December 3, 2025, a Chinese state-affiliated outlet, The Paper, published a viral exposé revealing childlike dolls made in various factories in the Guangdong province (where most dolls are made). This included unsettling photos from 2 weeks of undercover journalism at these various factories. On Weibo (Chinese social media), the story went viral with 300 million views in 48 hours, as riled-up netizens called for action. Douyin (Chinese Tiktok) was then flooded with videos inside doll factories, gathering millions of views, leading to widespread attention in China. Some people believe that the recent (and also viral) SHEIN situation in France also fueled the flames. With thousands of netizens calling for bans, including celebrities, the Chinese government and police have since gotten involved.
Currently, sex doll brands are in full-panic, scrambling to protect their business and remove traces of potential controversy. Although there aren’t any actual laws or regulations yet, the widespread uproar makes it seem likely. Therefore, many brands have voluntarily discontinued their smaller dolls this week, particularly those under 140cm tall (regardless of breast size or body shape). Again, this is all preventative measures to protect their business from potential rules and regulations; there are no official laws surrounding this in China yet (more on that later).
Ongoing Updates from Doll Brands
After closing for a few days to plan, Jiusheng & MLW will no longer produce dolls below 145cm. Production resumes for the 145B body and above, and T1 and T4 torsos.
WM Doll will no longer produce any dolls under 140cm.
Game Lady will no longer sell their mini Tifa doll.
Mozu Doll stopped producing and shipping dolls under 150cm (as of Jan 5, 2025).
Doll Forever & Irokebijin discontinued several bodies 130cm and below.
Piper Doll discontinued their silicone 130cm Aika.
Aotume discontinued their 142cm male body and all bodies below that. Says the 135B and 135G are ok.
MW Girl discontinued their 75cm and 115cm dolls.
FUDOLL discontinued bodies under 148cm.
Momodoll officially shut down, but relaunched as Momedoll (with >140cm silicone dolls).
SEDOLL, Irontech Doll, Climax Doll, & XY Doll removed dolls under 150cm from their website.
Bezlya removed <149cm, AF Doll removed <145cm, Qita removed <135cm, & Butterfly Doll removed <140cm dolls.
Cooby Doll removed all dolls from their website.
Shedoll temporarily stopped production of their 140cm bodies.
Some Discussion
This list is work-in-progress, and while some brands haven’t been listed, I assume they’re all aware of this and taking action. What’s interesting is smaller dolls have always been on full display at every Chinese adult expo for years without conflicts – attended by millions of men and women in total. I guess they were just hidden in plain sight. But after the exposé broke, people will never view them the same way again.
There are lots of rumors and speculation (especially since there are no actual laws yet), but apparently on Dec 3, at least two factories were raided by police and forcibly shut down (one in Huizhou and one in Dongguan). Most likely the ones from the exposé, police confiscated their dolls, shut down operations, and are still investigating. This is enough to make brands worry even if no laws were passed, so preventative action is smart. Last I heard, some brands (including WM) were visited by police this week.
Regulations to Come
On December 9, 2025, the “Guangdong Provincial Sexology Association,” a semi-official body that oversees “Sexual Health” issues in China (along with 100+ business representatives and experts from doll factories and e-commerce websites like JD and Tmall) approved a 20+ page document condemning childlike dolls. In short, dolls that resemble minors (under 18 years old) are now banned on most Chinese e-commerce websites, and products must have clear warnings (“Not for minors; adult use only”). Violations will result in heavy fines or shutdowns. Since then, 1000+ ecommerce sellers were audited, and at least 300 removed. While this isn’t technically an official law, they essentially tied it to existing “obscenity” laws, calling it CP and illegal. They hope to make this a national law by Q1 2026.
Conclusion
Since this is a heavily debated topic in the doll community, some people will be happy, some will be sad, and some won’t care – so let’s to keep it civilized in the comments. One thing’s for sure though: it’ll shape the future of doll designs and the doll market. Most likely, no more dolls under 140cm tall. I’ll update this when I have more information. For now, most brands are taking precautionary actions and preparing for the future.

The child argument is so overblown, and honestly kind of weird. I like taller women, but the fact is weight. Bigger dolls are ridiculous to handle, and completely and utterly impractical. It sucks that reasonably weighted dolls are going away because people are odd, and trying to tie them to things they were never made for. It’s like saying a small torso is bad because it’s small. NO. I just don’t want to break my back trying to enjoy a doll. Until weight reduction actually means anything for bigger dolls, smaller dolls will always have a use case, and a reason for existing. Is it weird if a doll is specifically made to look under age? Of course it is, it’s very bad and strange. Is it weird to think a smaller doll is automatically child like? Yes, it is. When large dolls reach around 15kg, then we have something there. But that will take a miracle innovation, so until then you’re stuck with limited plush options, or having back issues in your thirties. Even a lot of torso’s are overweight. But hey, leave it to the weirdos to get things banned.
I’m tired of these same arguments over and over and over. Through out history of our general media consumption, whether it be movies, novels, or video games, time after time it has shown that we clearly understand how to separate fiction from reality. I don’t see why this needs to be proven for every single interactable content we consumes. People can murder the entire village in video game not because it’s what they want to do in real life, it’s because they understand it’s a consequenceless collection of computer codes that they can have fun doing whatever they want to. Big companies keep pushing DEI and political correctness into AAA games and completely disregard the fact people just want to be absorbed in the media and not have social agenda shoved down their throat, and look at where we are now. We have sex dolls not because we are trying to objectify anyone, instead we know we bought an object and just want that freedom to have fun. I’m not going to use the argument that a lot of people simply use these dolls as dress up dolls, it’s true there is a big community of that but it’s not what these dolls are primarily designed for. That being said what I said above still holds true, its just an object, it’s a toy, you shouldn’t be policed for such personal object that does not impact anyone else. I am also perplexed how wester society is so fixated on the symptoms and never the root cause of problems. Isn’t it obvious this does not encourage immoral behaviors but serve as a release valve for people? To bring back the video game comparison again, those who end up harming people who also play violent video games are not motivated by video games themselves, it just attracts them, they will do so regardless.
You know, regarding weight factor, I think a better balance would be investing more in collapsible dolls for the larger models when it comes to designs.
They already have legs collapsible. If they can do so for the arms, they’d really do wonders.
I wonder why they haven’t tried that yet with their skeletons? Would be a boon for customization!
Hello and thank you for covering all that.
It’s very had to find relevent information.
I hope the storm will pass and that we will be able to buy 100cm dolls again. The weight is a very important factor.
I think that if we had 170cm 15Kg dolls, most people would buy those except people who dont have a lot of storage space or want something easy to carry on trips.
Little 1 week update: After the meeting on Dec 9, The Paper and the “Association” haven’t talked about dolls since (and moved onto other topics). Brands are still playing it safe, but several anime brands are resuming production since anime doesn’t seem affected. Besides the two raids on Dec 3, most brands seem unaffected. It’s mainly the Chinese e-commerce websites that are “cleaning house.” Still no official laws yet.
Currently, I’m trying to research Chinese e-commerce websites to get an idea of the unofficial guidelines. The Chinese doll community is angry as expected and echoed many of the same thoughts here. In their own words, they “just want to play with their dolls.”
Hey Steven, just here to say thanks for all the updates.
The argument of “I just want to” is not going to cut it when we are talking about immoral acts. I got a bit wary of this community after reading the responses. Kind of crazy, maybe this industry needs a lot more oversight if that’s how the community is.
Masturbation and Contraceptives and Anal Sex are Immoral Acts to the Majority of World’s religions and their adherents.
Kink Shaming is My Kink is personally less offensive to me than Your Kink.
Since the times of the Neanderthal dragging the blonde in the leopardskin dress by her hair, men have ruled, might makes right…. however, we are handicapped to laws set by men….not womb-men.
Womb-men control their erotica and toys, Men control theirs.
Not a PDF, but a weak man, used to have 156H WMdoll but it was too heavy and end up getting rid of it less than 1 year, fed up, lost interest in sexdoll end up using normal handheld. After give it a tried after hiatus, on shorter than 140CM doll, barely weight more than 20KG. Thinking it will be weird or felt guilty to have more realistic face on shorter body so end up getting only anime style head, it is easy to handle, easy to move around, easy to pose and change pose. Reignite the flame. No choice that these kind of configuration could be controversial, RIP. Hope they loosen up anime doll, it should be pure fantasy.
A reminder to keep things civil when replying to others. You can have a discussion and debate without personal attacks or insults.
Review of 45 comments: not one was supportive of the move. Damn. That’s scary.
Sex dolls are half the price in China and the State says that they are the answer for one child policy 50 million surplus men… with additionally now women leaving villages to go to big cities, Graduate and seek Wealthy Successful men in Hypergamy.
Chinese men prefer lighter easy to handle sex dolls… but it is a question if the most controversial small realistic dolls are even marketed domestically in China due to puritanical public sexual morality police rules, anti scandal maintaining public order police rules.
Those small dolls may really be only marketed to the Imperialist Adversarial West of America and Japan primarily. Capitalist exploitation.
Remember most sexdoll factory workers are women, and Catdoll is owned and run by Chinese Elderly Women. Women make those controversial dolls.
The California High Court ruled Adult Cinema was acting just like Hollywood Cinema and its R-Rated sex scenes… 40 years ago… whether cosplaying cheerleader, Catholic school or Girl Scout uniforms Same goes for Japanese 4 ft tall flat chested College Age JAV Actresses wearing sailor suit school uniforms.
There are millions of Adult women who are midgets and dwarves…
25 percent of the World’s Adult women are A cup, AA cup or flat as a board ..
The same reason why someone buying a Plushie stuffed animal from Toys R Us toy store, taking it home, drilling a hole in its backside and masturbating in it isn’t illegal or a Bestiality Felony….
Same for buying a 3 foot tall My Size Barbie doll from Walmart (based on the German 1950s Bild Lily 16 year old girl erotic Men’s Toy) and taking it home and drilling it with a door lock drill bit to masturbate into…
Legal according to Stanley vs. Georgia 1960s US Supreme Court Decision… Possession of Obscenity is a Constitutional Right.
Ashcroft vs Free Speech Coalition and USA vs Williams and Allesandra’s Smile various articles vs New Jersey (US) legalized import, production and commerce. including Interstate and export..
Legal to an extant and practiced by all of the World’s Religions. There is a precedent culturally and Legally
In china there are more important things than laws, the companies react to them.
This stuff would only cut it in east asia for some reason, maybe because of its communal society transitioning quickly into a hard working world with no individual human rights agendas. It was never a debate, these dolls are literal children, having these thoughts for children is pedo, there’s no wiggle room.
With chinese falling birth rates I wouldn’t be surprised authorities trying to make it harder to get sex toys, they are already trying some shady stuff to increase the rates just like Russia. Though sex dolls are mostly for older man, and you don’t want to antagonise males who don’t have much to loose.
I rather have a society where disgusting thoughts are allowed than one where thr government has the power to invade and criminalize your very thoughts. If you think that thought crime is good then this is truly scary as it legitimizes jailing people for stuff with no victim. Why would and should they stop at dolls?
Yeah I’m not going to argue this stuff. 98% of people will agree with the right decision.
I’m a big fan of MRL brand minidolls lately so I’m definitely hoping the regulation on minidolls will end up having a bit of nuance.
Read Faye’s report and now yours. Thanks for keeping us up to date.
Follow the Money….
Apparently some is a Western manufactured Witch-hunt….
One catalyst was the Anglo Western Woke Mainstream Media outlet Reuters doing an investigation into AliExpress selling allegedly according to Reuters Tabloid Journalists “child sex dolls”…
Turns out it was totally mainstream Anime and Manga figurine dolls with plastic heads that did happen to have a hole . Even one of their smaller dolls was Opium pipe smoking Baoqing Fangzhu from the Internationally released White Snake movie with her dress and long opium pipe…
Aliexpress told Reuters to buzz off that Guavadolls doesn’t violate their Terms of Service that they are similar to Super Dollfie BJD figurines.
Reuters kept demanding they be removed so AliExpress caved in under the excuse they all have a hole and banned all Guavadoll listings.
Facepalm… what a bunch of Japanese Arts and Culture hating Neanderthal racists.
Kumadoll still shows sales pics of Guavadolls dozens of models
Give them an inch and they take a mile. Crazy how they went from hunting sex dolls to cracking down on Cosplay/Figurine dolls. What is the goal here? You would need to ban EVERY doll that looks like a minor as you can make them pose sexually. I never thought that society could be this blinded by rage and disgust, Jesus Christ.
I do hope that they go after actual anime figurines soon, because when it comes to plastic they are still the biggest community and they would definetly fight back. They just need to be poked. That Community is big enough to put this shit into the grave like in 2019 when the UN tried to ban Hentai.
This is a clear example of a country changing the rules in order to continue trading with other nations
Now which is worse, a communist state that’s now moralistic?
Penalizing the shape of a piece of plastic is stupid.
Being concerned about children is total hypocrisy, after in a certain part of the world, children were killed by hunger and bombs, And no country did anything and condemned anything.
Let’s ban car ownership, which causes thousands of deaths a year due to recklessness; let’s ban alcohol because it causes deaths directly and indirectly; let’s ban shooting games, which are potential sources of mass murderers; and let’s put people in jail on suspicion that they might one day commit a crime. Hypocrisy.
theyre banning pieces of plastic basically. Should they also ban stick figure drawings that dont look right? Doesnt effect me since all the dolls ive owned were 150cm+. . But IMO if no ones being harmed , theres no crime. Dont really care what folks do at home alone. Then again, its china, so implimenting “thought crimes” is consistent w their system of gov. ( same w the UK and other totalitatian regimes).
I think brands will be clearer this week. Jiusheng & MLW returned and will resume production on the 145B body and above, including T1 and T4 torsos (which are based on the 148B and 160E bodies). Also, Aotume said their 135B body is ok now.
Aotume’s 135B announcement is quite surprising. The guidelines might be looser than in the West since Asian women typically have younger faces and smaller/narrower proportions? Also, maybe anime aesthetics help since I noticed Elsa Babe doesn’t seem to care. So far, no heads were discontinued besides Piper’s AIO Aika.
This is bad. I’m against PDFs, and despite that I understand that they must relieve pressure too like the rest of us. Without dolls to help them, they will lash out at children.
But it is what it is… I guess the small dolls are rarity items now.
Thank you Steven for all the sex doll news. Without you we wouldn’t know what’s happening.
Many people are not willing to accept that there will always be PDFs on this world. This is simply a fact. Knowing this it should be clear that banning and supressing these fantasies is never going to work.
I also have the impression that people value moral values more than the safety of actual children. There is no other explanation to the case of a man in the USA who got over 40 years in Jail for publishing fictional stories involving such fantasies. I think Arthur sth. was his name. Even the Judge seemed shocked if this is really how the obscenity law is meant to be applied. He cited cases of real r@pe of childen not even coming close to what this man got.
Australia also has a maximum penalty of 15 f@%!ing years for owning a doll. 15 Years. 15. For plastic.
Yea that’s crazy. It’s all fake moralism. People are just seeking social status, they want to feel morally superior without actually doing anything good.
Damn this is some peculiar opinion, this stuff should be studied before such a conclusion is made.
Though I agree society can be smarter about this, but it’s hard to be smart about it and there are plenty of problems as is.
Check out the comments. There is no empirical study that supports any harm as of now (they all see actual benefits), but yet they all jump to ban them. Now explain to me how you can research something that is banned and illegal to posess?
Just how you study if it’s possible to build a bridge in a location before building it.
Emotional baggage for a concept is just as important as why it is bad. Just the idea of people normalising something bad is in of itself bad.
“Normalising something bad”.
I love this argument. With this you can ban any and all fiction that is illegal in real life. Crime is more complex than this. Comments like yours water down the actual crimes by suggesting that stuff like this “just happens”. Oh yeah he killed everyone, because he played GTA or beat up a doll. It is disgusting and weird and you are going by your gut feeling.
Every study comes to the conclusion that a ban is more likely to harm children and you would still want it banned? Not having to accept that a weird fiction exists out there is more important than protecting real kids? Stop lying to yourself and just be honest.
Crimes all have their own chain of events – environmental, social and mental. These causes have to be studied and resolved as much as possible. But this doesn’t have anything to do with crime being crime, and revulsion for some crimes being revulsion.
Every study? What studies?
Holy smokes man. Check out the linked studies in these comments. One of them from “Study” is a review that looked at every available empirical study. They literally did all the work for you by looking at all the studies – all the data.
You keep coming up with morality. “This is bad, so your individual rights are bye-bye and see you in jail”. Sounds like a future-proof and true justice system where people go to jail, because the majority thinks something is disgusting. Why even have protections like freedom of expression. Everyone has the same morals and disgust anyways, so what is there to protect? (Certified Rass morality is everything logic).
It seems morality is a concept in your head not a value, so you don’t get it.
You know what, watch NAMBLA episode of South Park.
(it’s kind of crazy how south park authors were tackling modern topics in 2000s, there’s another episode about sex change which is too smart and right)
Sir (or w/e you identify as), the crowd of psychotically intolerant people keeps growing fast, everywhere.
I believe the issue here is not the dolls, or the doll users…
At this point why not study if any dildos smaller than 15cm are considered child like penis?
Why not ban anything that can be inserted in a vagina that’s smaller than the average man sized penis?
Why not ban mastubators because apparently we can’t judge if this is a child or a piece of polymer anymore.
Why not ban injections molds because they are made of polymer and have holes and someone somwhere might think this is a child?
The real issue is people who are so confused that they can’t make the difference between a piece of polymer that ressemble a humanoid child that might be underage of their local laws on sex and so their conclusion is to remove the tools that helps people with their issues without ever bothering anyone. The issue is in the knowing, because they now know it exist and they’d rather be ignorant and mentally unchecked.
Another try at blaming normal people huh. There’s no lack of knowledge ok? People know what sex and desire is, and people know what children are. There’s ZERO lack of knowledge. It’s lack of something on somebody else’s part.
If you argument is that smaller dolls are just small dolls made out of plastic, then why do they look like children? Make them look old and that will probably do it.
Bro, what “looks like children” to you? Just look into countries where those dolls are banned, or refer to Stevens updates. China apparently has a very different view on when a doll is “child-like” compared to Australia.
Sex dolls with a cup size of “A” are highly risky as the gov. claims that “flat chests make men pedophiles”. Your only argument is keep whining about morality. That is not a sufficient reason to put people in Jail as it is subjective and lacks a victim. If my own personal disgust was enough to jail someone then perhaps people like you were the first to feel my power.
Yes, everybody who travels to china says “Chinese look like children”. My guy, everybody knows how children look like and outside of very few individuals who have more distinctly childish features, everybody looks like an adult, and even they won’t fool people that they are children. NOBODY mistakes an adult for a child. Not in china, not in russia, not in bhutan.
You can yap all you want, I bet 99.9% of people will reject any existence of adults being sexually interacting with children in any form. And the thing about the law and values of people, they don’t care about what you think and you can’t do anything. Freedoms are allowed as long as you don’t do anything to others, and in the case of using somebody else’s bodies is not isolated freedom.
@Rass
There are countless cases of women being mistaken as children. You keep living in your bubble.
“Freedoms are allowed as long as you don’t do anything to others” then why are you here? Is a “doll” you consider a rights holder? Your definition of freedom means nothing if mere objects can be violated. Brother, it does not matter what the majority thinks when the science is right there. Literally look up “Fictosexuality” on wikipedia. It is officially recognized by the National Library of Medicine to be part of LGBT. Educate yourself instead of blindly following the hate of the majority. Following collective hatred guided by misunderstanding is very progressive of you. Keep virtue signalling, Rass.
So why there are adult woman around 150cm? How can you explain that if you are so clever? 😛
Thanks for the article. It’s terrible news, and it will also affect everyone who’s into small or petite dolls. Emotional outcry, devoid of logical thinking. Karen’s will see adult dolls as child-like simply because the faces don’t have wrinkles.
Ah that was my first thought.
”… are we really gonna get stuck with heads like Lucretia, Lustina etc from starperry i.e. and bodies that are 50+kg or so average that the only clothes that will fit them are extra-medium?”
I wonder will this affect Elsa babe 130cm? I was just considering purchasing one
I tried asking them but they didn’t reply. Maybe a vendor or someone else will know..
Can anyone explain why Mozu Doll is listed here?
All of the 130cm and below dolls are still being sold at Mozudoll.com and have the option for small breast still available.
Get them now while you still can I guess?
This just happened a few days ago so some websites are still outdated. That information came from a reputable Mozu Doll vendor: https://x.com/Rakuendoll2023/status/1999313396911702387
I see, Well to give you an update I just purchased the 115cm Lilitha from Mozu Doll (small breast version) and they said it will ship. I purchased directly from their site at Mozudoll.com where all options are still available. I even asked them about the situation and if they were effected. They gave me this reply:
“Yes, sir. Our domestic operations have indeed been impacted. But rest assured, our overseas stores are operating normally. Only our domestic operations have been affected, and we’re waiting for this storm to pass.”
Interesting. Was it in-stock (already made)? All the discontinuations mentioned are preventative actions from brands (to protect themselves). Technically, they can still produce the dolls but that would be risking it. But since there aren’t any official laws yet, I guess customs isn’t affected so it’s possible. Thanks for sharing, and I hope everything works out.
A lot of the guidelines stuff that passed will mainly affect Chinese e-commerce websites for now.
In a Nutshell you have a couple weeks left to even get in an order for any 136cm-140cm A cup or flat doll, at least for those that haven’t been already ordered to shutdown (CATdoll, MOMOdoll etc), but any 140cm-145cm + doll with large breasts and curves should be good to go for the future whether FUdoll, MLW, WM doll, AXB, Shedoll.
There may simply be too much profit for all parties to fully ban the Fully Physically Developed hentai figurine mini sexdoll class whether Anime face or Realistic representation .. 40cm, 60cm, 72-80cm, 93-100cm class stuff from CLIMAX, QITA, PIPERdoll etc.
Note: You can make your point without personally attacking other commenters. Those comments will no longer be approved. Let’s keep things civil in the comments please.
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9663384/
One study
Here is a more recent one from Germany which looked at EVERY available empirical study regarding these dolls. Their conclusion says it all; no child will be protected with a ban.
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41443-024-00979-3
To ban dolls just because they are small is the dumbest thing i have ever heard. I can understand dolls that look look like real children, the ultra realistic ones but not anime dolls, for sure mozu’s 60,85 and up dolls or Irokebijins mini dolls and up. The GLD Tifa should not be effected and why are we letting this happen… Why do Chinese ppl care? China has 1000s of Cat and Dog meat restaurants all over China, they are open to the public and on China’s Version of google maps, its not a secrete but dolls are the issue lol.
OK Most Chinese sexdoll Manufacturers make dolls that are intended to represent Minors of a Prepubescent or Pubescent Age… You just almost never see them on Western sites but only on (dot) jp sites.
Age of Consent in Asia until just a few years ago was 12, 13, 14 &15 everywhere without exception…Chairmen Mao slept with 60,000 women, preferring three 14 year olds at the same time… 2025 China Age of Consent and Mistresses Testimony. The running joke is the Average 14 year old Chinese female resembles the average 12 year old Western Caucasian female, and the average Japanese 14 year old female resembles the average 10 year old Western Caucasian female
Just Google image search all of the Japanese College Age JAV Professional Pornstars between 132 cm and 149 cm height.
So it is both legitimate and exploitative Free Enterprise Capitalism, Hysteria witch-hunt, and Western Ugly American Feminist Caucasian racism, and a Civil Rights issue for Dwarves and the Handicapped ..
Just don’t touch the new Sinodoll Top Sino 123 cm scaled down Recreation $3000 dolls!
Japan always had their AoC at 18. It is just that the constitution allowed it to be lowered to 13 which nobody did except for a remote island state. Also, I know from actual people with dwarfism who were affected by a ban on these dolls. They are obviously not able to properly and easily handle an adult-sized doll. It is too cumbersome. Also not a fan of a government body deciding when someone is “adult looking”.
The “Teen” category being the most popular on basically every major porn site is also very telling. I doubt that every customer of these dolls are pedophiles. There are many reasons to get such a doll; exploring a taboo, fetish of size difference, and some even buy them as a replacement for an actual child they are unable to deliver. Sex is also not limited to penetration, so if these dolls are truly dangerous then you must technically ban every resemblence of a child since people could kiss, lick, rub etc.
You do know why the teen category is more popular don’t you?…. Its because the women that are listed there look in their 20s, its a way to narrow out the milfs and big tit porn stars.
Look up proportionate dwarfism. There are adults who genuinely look like 6-8 year olds. Banning fiction is just dumb regardless.
I agree. I would like to add, 18-30yos can look in their teens, not just asian women and 13-17yo’s can look over 18, well over 18. It indeed is dumb. If you turn a real person with dwarfism into a anime character, they will look like a loli if they are female. Its just how the animation style is.
Word is the State Chinese Communist Party and Secret Police will not jeopardize the flow of Foreign Currency and profits into China (Walmart is micromanaged on their side as being equal to the GNP of a small Nation LOL)
The Security Apparatus will enforce a Canadian style 4 or 5 point criteria based on height, hip pelvic curves, childlike face, anime face, flat or AA cup chest.
Having more than 2 of the above apparent features will disallow production, sales and export/import.
Expect all sexdolls that most people would opinion as Middle School/Freshmen HS Age representation 140 cm Shedoll, MLW, Fudoll, AXB, (Zelex)J-Cute to be banned.
Assuming the Borderline Barely Legal in Canada Piperdoll Iris 100 cm / 105 cm and AA cup 149 cm (Zelex) J-Cute is allowed still .. As Canada bans as normative policy all A cup sexdolls below 148 cm, and only allows sexdolls under 145 cm if they have large breasts and hips.
WM Decade old TPE B and C cup 140 cm Barely Legal 16-18 Age representation teen/Adult dolls will be untouched as always. .. As well as B, C and D cup 148 cm + dolls of all manufacturers
Since the 1970s even toy dolls started to move toward anatomically correct genders, therefore as Nude Content (Nudism/Sculpture-Art) is protected by Supreme Court Decisions, so “Reborn” collectable silicone and TPE dolls will remain as legal as ever.
Japan is arguable the largest market for the to be banned sexdolls, as most Japanese women before WW2 married in Promiscuous sexual Night Prowling in the Countryside, all orphans aged 12 and up were rounded up by police Hospitality Squads to service American Military in 1945 to prevent rape of wives, Middle School and High School compensated dating and telephone line hotel teen hotline sex club Tabloid Newspaper scandals of the 1980s and 1990s…

To the commenter, StopTheCensorship:
Hi. I appreciate the reply. However, to avoid a potential and heated political argument here (and because this post is specifically about China and not the US), I unfortunately can’t approve your comment.. However, I agree with some of what you said, such as the attention on dolls over actual known perpetrators.
There is currently only one country (Germany) where such a ban is being challenged at the highest level. Apparently every empirical study comes to the conclusion that there is no harm in these dolls and that banning them has caused people to fall back into harmful activities (consumption of CSAM) since they “end up in prison anyways no matter what I do” .
If anyone is interested in following the constitutional complaints then look here on the english version of the german supreme court under Second Senate, Number 24: https://www.bundesverfassungsgericht.de/EN/LatestNews/PreviewOfDecisions/preview_of_decisions_node.html
“Constitutional complaints challenging the criminalisation of selling, buying or possessing childlike sex dolls in § 184l of the Criminal Code, which entered into force on 1 July 2021 as part of the Act to Combat Sexual Violence Against Children. The complainants assert a violation of their general right of personality in the form of the right to sexual self-determination.”
A decision is “soon” expected according to the court.
Thanks for sharing this. I am very interested on how this turns out as it could bring reason into this topic and be a liberating signal. It is scary to me that people can just call something dangerous with no evidence and then just ban it. Which ironically makes research impossible, so you are just silencing your opponent. Not a good thing if a ban turns out as harmful.
There is a website (english available) that explains their arguments and how they filed these complaints. A german doll vendor also protested and wrote a public letter to the president telling him not to sign the law. Apparently every legal expert opposed a ban during the legislative process.
It would be funny if Germany becomes the new China when it comes to dolls, but I find it more realistic that public sale would still be banned or restricted somehow. I will be following this one.
I am guessing you mean this website:
https://gegen-das-puppenverbot.de/en/index.html
Gotta say that they do make some valid points (legal uncertainty; technically reborn and medical traning dolls could also be illegal). I recommend giving the website a read and see what you can agree and disagree with.
Germany is a peculiar place. And personally I never supported the logic of “banning doesn’t work”. Bans exist not only to prevent something but also show values in society. I’d rather support better education and upbringing, better mental health
Individual freedom is surely more important than a moral signal. Yeah, I find this stuff weird and all. I can hate people, but also acknowledge that everyone should have the same rights.
If values are so important then you should ask yourself why we support child labor so much. It is just disgust. Gotta be honest to yourself girl (Rass sounds feminine to me)
Huh? Who supports child labour? It’s literally illegal on international level.
Freedom is freedom, bad stuff is bad. We are talking what concerns children not just desires of individuals.
Feminine? Thank you for a compliment, it’s a good sign I am balancing well hard and soft sides.
We all support child labor by purchasing electronics. While it is illegal these things happen in Africa with everyones knowledge. There are certifications for “ethical cacao” on chocolate for a reason. EU also just got rid of most of its law that ensured companies to not make use of third-parties using child labor, because child labor is “legal” in a “moderate” way and harsh cases impossible to control.
I wish you guys were at least honest, because most people draw a magical line when it comes to violence against children. That is cool and funny to consume and produce in fiction. Sadistic pleasure is also many draw sexual gratification from.
Just because something didn’t happen perfectly doesn’t mean it’s not valuable, or that it doesn’t matter to individuals, and certainly doesn’t make it useful for arguments like these.
It’s merely one of those witch hunts which never bring any good, when someone points fingers at someone and tells people to get very angry at them, to distract them from real issues. It’s about deviding, conquering and controlling.
And since it’s mostly about “low quality men” (“high quality men” just go out and get all the women they want), “freaks” and “to protect children” (of course it has almost nothing to do with protecting children), then no one would say a word against.
Considering the amount of someone’s money, work and time needed for “investigations” like that, there were probably some people in/with power behind this who were interested in this ban. It’s also one step closer into the dystopian future we are moving towards.
Youtube already fought me about this… I wasn’t even allowed to talk about this so it seems. Here in Europe there are big rules about child-like dolls and have been for quite some time now. But it’s being overlooked most of the time. It’s pretty crazy. To be fair tho, I am against pdf’s in real life and also regarding child dolls. I think the industry will be better without these tiny ladies lol.
I’d guess some of the taking down action is just the manufactories trying to hide themselves from the media, or at least they should wait until the topic to settle down (maybe after Chinese new year). Those dolls constitute a large industry and I can’t imagine how some brands who only produce small dolls could survive if they decide to change, or say, moving to sourth-east asia and continue the bussiness would be better than switching.
Campaign-style rectification is common here in China, this action might be connected to SHEIN protests in Paris and Macron‘s recent visit in China, as a sign to show friendship to France, or maybe not. We can only wait and see.
Keep us updated please, very interesting and important stuff.
Of course this happens during my first doll production/order lol. I should be fine (170cm doll senior) but chinese government is no joke.
You’re probably fine. Doll Senior has some dolls that may face scrutiny, but they’re still promoting on Twitter like nothing’s happening. I’ll try to keep this updated, but I don’t know everything.. Some brands only talk to vendors. The Paper (Chinese media outlet that started this) seems to be hammering this hard.
I wonder if the new rules will affect torsos? )
Two days ago, MLW said their T1 and T4 torsos are ok, but that was before they stopped all production.
From the summary of the document (not 100% if this is correct), dolls can’t have 2 or more of the following: under 140cm tall, have a youthful face, flat chest + narrow hips, (some kind of BMI measurement will be involved), use child-referencing marketing terms, or any childlike voices/AI.
Youthful means a person under 30 years old, in some regions around the world, its 25ish and below. Flat chest has no legal or medical/biology links to age nor does narrow hips. I know you are just noting what they are doing, i just wanted to define it because seems like ppl do not understand. People can and will look at the 150cm TopCY as a underaged teen and this is why these bans are stupid. I’m a deep advocate on this matter and i can speak about this for days because its stupid when dolls are targeted just because they are small. Next, laws will be passed that if a 18+ yo woman is too short, has small boobs or narrow hips or has a baby face, it will be illegal to date her even if you’re the same age. These anti small doll bans and outcries is saying this without saying it.
As long as they dont look childish…
You have some dolls with childish faces, so stop talking. What is child-like and what is not is subjective, so there is no reason in trying to convince me otherwise. I despise moralists in a hobby like this where people piggy-back on this issue advocating for a ban of adult dolls as well, because “they normalize r*pe”.
All opinions are welcomed, but please don’t personally attack anyone in the comments. Although I don’t think he has any childish dolls, the subjectiveness of it is definitely why this topic is so controversial and heavily debated.
You’re too deep in the sauce man. You’re into kids then? R*pe you say… dolls arent alive. But talking about appearance is something different. I dont want anything to do with kids dude. You can have em. But rules are rules and i dont make these. But then again you name yourself lmao so we cant take you seriously.
You do read that he said nothing about being into kids… He is pointing out the issue we all are seeing. It started out with realistic childlike dolls, now its any small doll regardless how it looks and he is saying YOUR dolls you own now will be next because the same ppl going after dolls now also say all sex dolls normalizes R*pe and you would rather call him a ped in a form of a question. Like i said in your other comment, all because a doll is small, doesn’t mean it is a child or relates to a child and all because others defends that doesn’t mean they are into children. Yes Appearance is subjective and all because you think a 90cm Tifa is childlike doesn’t make that a fact, or a 85cm Mozu for the matter. The dolls that should only be targeted are the ones that look like real children 1:1 and we all do not like milf dolls like you do. I’m told my 150cm TopCY looked like a 13yo and with your logic, they are right since subjectiveness is all you need to pass laws and bans on things you personally dislike.
Imagine others into 160cm+ milf dolls telling other men they have to like the same dolls that they do… Some of us do not have $2k + for larger dolls, nor can some of us lift dolls over 50lb do to medical reasons or has the space for them. You not liking something should not dictate what others can or cant have. Its all really dumb, small dolls is the issue according to your side but its ok for parents to smoke near kids, alcohol in the same homes as children, owning guns in homes with children, children shooting guns, minors driving cars killing ppl, text and driving still not really a crime, all these things leads children to their deaths daily in the US and the world but a mini doll is the issue lol. If ppl can buy and own a sex doll that really looks young, if he is hurting real children, than so are you and i owning adult looking dolls hurting women. Its like holding a machete yelling at the guy with a sword calling him out as a bad guy for having a weapon in public… If the sword can hurt ppl even tho the man with it has no will to hurt ppl with it, then the machete guy is as innocent.
I also heard that WM was visited by the police yesterday but I don’t know what happened afterwards.
