Trottla Doll
Leighann Cobetto
Trottla is a Japanese company that produces and sells child-sized, life-like dolls. They're made to feel and look like real children and come with heating instructions and moveable joints. Before you berate me for immediately assuming these dolls are for pedophiles, consider that there is no male counterpart, they wear lingerie, and just look at the fucking pictures.
The company clearly states that the dolls are not to be used for sexual purposes, but if they're just kids' toys, why the hell would you dress them up in matching white lace lingerie sets and give them teeny weeny awkward nipples? The photo galleries used to promote the dolls on the manufacturer's website are also enough to creep out even the hardiest internet veteran.
Generally, it is legal to produce, sell, and buy these dolls in the UK, though obviously the lines begin to blur when it comes to their usage and how they're displayed. How is there a loophole in UK law big enough for a life-size child sex doll to fit through? I caught up with Shin Takagi, the owner of Trottla and the guy who makes the dolls, to find out how his business continues to operate.
VICE: Hey, guys. So how are Trottla dolls made?
Shin Takagi: We produce most parts of the dolls ourselves because a lot of the parts aren't available commercially. It requires a lot of time to fully reproduce the movement of the human body. Its skin is soft like a marshmallow and is made of the closest material to human skin. The whole process requires great risk. Our dolls are the only dolls in the world that will substitute a human girl.
Why, though? What are they for?
I cannot be precise in my answer to this. The purpose of the doll differs with each customer and the customer is free to use the doll in any way they wish.
Profound. Do you know of any UK-based companies that sell a similar product to your dolls?
My dolls are the only kind in the world, and I'm not interested in any other companies that sell similar dolls to mine. My dolls, including their internal systems, are totally original. They are completely different to other dolls produced by any other company, and I don't even want to see the work of others.
In a recent interview, Trottla Founder Shin Takagi says he creates anatomically correct sex dolls that resemble children to help prevent those who have sexual urges towards children from actually committing a crime. Takagi started manufacturing the dolls 10 years ago and claims to have clients from all over the world including the United States.
"Both watching and engaging are absolutely illegal, but those people who enjoy watching perhaps may actually be helped by a doll because it's not actually child pornography, it's a doll, to curtail that desire by acting with a doll," says Altshiler, an Attorney with Russo & Toner, LLP who has handled sex abuse cases in the past.
The CDC reports that more than 300,000 children were sexually abused in the United States in 2012. The publication Psychology Today says treatments for pedophilia may include cognitive-behavioral therapy and medications, but research also shows changing the thoughts and actions of a pedophile is difficult to do.
"I personally don't believe that a doll would help prevent somebody who's already acted physically from acting physically. That urge is a very difficult urge to suppress and can't be suppressed with a doll," Altshiler said.
