Asian Love Dolls


Tabloid Tidbits: Love doll photo contest a Dutch wife treat

One of Japan's more innovative companies has come up with a photo contest that is frankly full of hot air -- and the organizers wouldn't have it any other way, judging from Nikkan Gendai (10/24).

Orient Industry, purveyor of plastic love dolls that the Japanese once universally referred to as "Dutch wives," is calling on owners of the sex aids to submit snapshots of their silicone sweethearts.

Nikkan Gendai says Orient is hosting the Candy Girl Photo Contest to mark its 30th anniversary of operations.

Previous photo contests the love doll maker has organized have seen entries where the blow-up babes have been posed portrait-style, dressed up in all sorts of costumes or adorned with expensive make-up. The lowbrow afternoon daily says expectations of high quality surround the current contest.

One love doll snapper will be rewarded with a cash prize of 200,000 yen (1,775.73 USD) if their work is judged the winner, while the Candy Girl Photo Contest runner-up will be able to claim 100,000 yen (887.94 USD) in cash.

The doll in the photo is from Orient Industry.
