So, I recently heard the news about Tyra Banks’ sex doll, and I must say that I find it pretty bizarre and borderline perverse. I can’t imagine why anyone would go out of their way to buy one, or why it was made in the first place. Sure, it’s a fashion icon and concept artist. But to own a sex doll that looks like her? That’s just weird!
At first, I thought it may have been a joke. It’s been said that Tyra Banks has a fearless spirit. But I had to do some digging to really validate if it was true. So, I took to the internet and, sex toys sure enough, it was true. The serial entrepreneur had, in fact, decided to capitalize on her fame to open a new line of sex dolls modelled after her likeness.
My first thought was: why? And then I had a minor epiphany: some men just don’t care about the consequences, they just want a piece of what their fantasy is. Hence, the creation of the Tyra Banks sex doll. But this still made me slightly uncomfortable, and saddened by the fact that such an accomplished woman had been reduced to something that wouldn’t even have a soul – not to mention it doesn’t fully represent her essence.
Yes, Tyra Banks is a beautiful woman, but this doll barely holds a candle to her originals punch. Anyone can create a doll made in her likeness, but it doesn’t represent the full power of her mature beauty. It just looks almost like her, but not quite the same.
There are a few ways to answer my question “why”. Tyra Banks may have decided to enter the arena to serve a niche market, or maybe it has something to do with the world of marketing. That being said, it’s sad that her incredible accomplishments have to be reduced to, well, a sex doll.
I understand there may be certain reasons why Tyra Banks decided to make a sex doll, but I still believe it’s all in bad taste and beneath her. Her success and achievements are vast, so why not just keep the focus there instead? It goes without saying that her hard work needs to be treasured.
I don’t think you can really give an opinion about the Tyra Banks sex doll, but personally, it bothers me that such a powerful black woman has been reduced to this. It kind of implies that valuable women are objects solely for sexual pleasure instead of being celebrated for the strong, empowered women they are. It just seems wrong and disrespectful.
I wonder how Tyra Banks herself feelings about her doll. I guess all we can do is wait and see how she and her fans react to it. Maybe everyone will appreciate it, or maybe we will just have to agree to disagree and put it to the side. All I know is that it’s a strange concept, and vibrators I just hope it doesn’t take away from the shining star she already is.
