Tradesman finds love at long last

Post Reply New Topic

Since there seems to be little in the way of good news stories making the headlines here's one worth sharing.

After a devastating break up and years without physical intimacy, Rod* made the bold move to purchase a $3000 sex doll named Karina.
The Aussie carpenter from rural New South Wales had been left “frozen” in a state of loneliness in 2021 when he ordered Karina online after searching for sexual stimulation tools.
Despite having zero knowledge about sex dolls, the 54-year-old said Karina “changed his life in many ways” and finally gave him something to care for.

“The doll became by synthetic physical companion"

“Slowly my heart opened up, and I was distracted from my grief of losing my ex [fiance] that just wouldn’t go away by itself.”

Only two months after purchasing Karina, Rod made the big decision to introduce her to his mum in Victoria for Christmas.
Not only has his social skills improved since ordering Karina, but Rod also secured a contract with a Chinese manufacturer to photograph promotional material for their adult dolls.

While Rod does have a overseas bride from Vietnam his fiance is happy to support his hobby
Here's Rod with his doll

Not sure if this is real or satire, but it's funny.

3 grand? Rather F my hand for free - I'm a cheap date.

It's real.

I love the fact he introduced Karina to his mother

I say good on him! he's a pioneer for entering a brave new world (quite literally)

Nope. Don’t buy it.

Katrina is not a real person.

This is beyond ridiculous.

I’m more bemused than provoked.

You can form love with dolls. As the Artificial intelligence and authenticity improves the prediction is that "Katrina" type dolls will become more widespread.

- Mom, this is Katrina.

- Whispers: She looks too plastic.

- She is plastic, mom.

I guess I can fall in love with my furniture, then…..

For now Katrina needs a little imagination...but in future the prototype of "female companion" dolls is already on the drawing board

I hope this sort of thing never comes to fruition......

It's.....dehumanizing.

Someone needs to insert that movie clip of Dahmer sleeping with a manequin. [i can't do it ]

I'm probably taking this way too seriously......

She has about as much plastic as those rich celebs get



I bet it's one of those RealDolls that Howard Stern talked about

This guy got an older version

This is beyond disgusting.

Why is everyone attacking the man's decision? he's happy and not harming anyone and that's all that should matter.

I agree. Hypothetically if he was complaining about being single, people would be telling him that he needs to accept it & learn to be happy on his own Now that he figured out a way to be happy without a real relationship, people are upset. Sometimes it's impossible to please others. i gave up trying a long time ago, my girlfriend is the one exception. I don't care if I upset anyone else unless my actions directly affect them somehow

I wouldn't tell a lonely person to enjoy being alone. That's just cruel.
