At 36, Jade Stanley is convinced that "loneliness" is the primary driving force behind the flourishing business she initiated last year above her tanning salon, SexDollPartner. Initially offering a range of premium love dolls, complete with detachable vaginas priced at £345 per week, the business swiftly expanded to encompass realistic sex dolls resembling famous male and female personalities. Jade has since introduced a bespoke service, crafting dolls to resemble deceased partners as part of a specialized bereavement offering. Speaking to SexDollPartner, Jade explained her approach: "I accommodate requests for different eye colors, hair, body types, tattoos, and piercings. Any customization imaginable, I can recreate someone else's appearance."
However, Jade is adamant about establishing boundaries for creating lifelike replicas, stipulating that clients must obtain written consent from the individuals involved before she proceeds. As a mother of four, she finds it "absolutely fantastic" that people derive solace from her lifelike sex dolls, but she also acknowledges that their needs are indicative of contemporary society. She remarks, "The issue nowadays is that social media has fostered a sense of isolation among people. Anxiety levels have surged as well. It's understandable why loneliness plagues our society, and why individuals seek solace in dolls." Jade believes that if these cheap sex dolls can bring comfort to someone, it would be truly remarkable. One surprising revelation for Jade since launching SexDollPartner is that people utilize the dolls for more than just intimate purposes—they provide emotional support beyond mere "graphic reasons."
