An adult sex toy can be an invaluable aid to achieving sexual satisfaction. But what happens when these objects become the source of sexual arousal instead of an aid to it?

Sexual fetishism is the sexual arousal brought on by any object, situation or body part not conventionally viewed as sexual in nature. For instance, one can get aroused by the sight of a woman’s foot or by the feel of silk. Fetishes can be an enhancing element in a relationship, just like an adult sex toy.
Although fetishes are often times not seen as something abnormal, fetishism becomes a paraphilia when it causes significant distress for the person or has a detrimental effect on important areas of their lives. Paraphilia in the context of sex toys can be defined as having intense, recurrent sexual urges, behaviors or fantasies involving objects.
A fetish on sex toys can be seen as a disorder when the device itself becomes the object of sexual arousal instead of it being an aid to sexual arousal. For instance, using glass sex toys, a sex doll or artificial vagina to help relieve one’s urgent sexual needs can be regarded as a normal activity one engages in once in a while. It smacks of a disorder when one prefers having sex with these inanimate objects instead of using them as an alternative to having sex with a real person.
This type of disorder has a name—agalmatophilia. Agalmatophilia is not limited to being sexually aroused by dolls, mannequins or statues, it also includes having the desire for sexual contact with these objects or being transformed or transforming another person in the likeness of a doll or statue. In some cases, people who are suffering from this disorder treat their sex dolls as a living breathing person and no longer seek out real romantic relationships with real people. Reasons behind this preference for inanimate objects can be varied.
For some, they prefer to total control they have over the inanimate object and wish to avoid completely or are totally incapable of dealing with the complications of real human relationships, such as rejection and disagreement.
Experiences with sex toys can indeed be mind blowing. However, it should not be viewed as an object of affection because it cannot reciprocate this affection one lavishes on it. A sex toy should be viewed as a tool one uses to achieve sexual satisfaction.
Thankfully 99% of people just enjoy healthy sex with their favorite adult sex toy.
