But the most public prelude to the modern sex doll was the mannequin-based artcreated by Surrealists like Man Ray and Salvador Dalí. A work called "MannequinStreet," featured at the Exposition International du Surréalisme at the Galeriedes Beaux-Arts in 1938, included 16 mannequins outfitted by different artists,while Dalí's "Rainy Taxi" centered on a female mannequin whose half-undressedbody was crawling with live snails. Man Ray once claimed that the Surrealistsnot only infused these works with eroticism but personally "violated" their mannequins.
對大部分公眾來說，現代充氣娃娃發展的前奏就是由曼雷和薩爾瓦多·達利這樣的超現實主義者發明的人體藝術。1938年，在“模特街”美術館舉行的國際超現實主義展覽，16位藝術家都帶了自己的展示模特，達利的作品“雨中的士”是一位爬滿蝸牛的半裸女模。曼雷說，超現實主義者的作品不僅僅揉進了色情，藝術家們還會“潛規則”他們的模特。
A persistent urban legendholds that Adolf Hitler charged one of his SS commanders to design sex dollsfor German soldiers during World War II, to prevent them from slaking theirlust with non-Aryan women. Whether or not this is true, the commercial sex dolldoes find its origins in Germany. The Bild Lilli doll—invented inthe 1950s and modeled on a sexy, outspoken comic-strip character calledLilli—was an 11.5 inch plastic model, not a penetrable sex doll. In his bookThe Sex Doll: A History, Anthony Ferguson calls the Bild Lilli "a pornographiccaricature." Although it was marketed to adult men, the doll is widely cited asthe inspiration for Barbie, so, you know, take that and run with it.
據說二戰期間，希特勒給他的黨衛隊軍官一條指令是設計性愛娃娃，以滿足士兵的需求并防止他們同雅利安女性啪啪。傳說的真假不確定，但是現代性愛娃娃的商業化確實源于德國。Bild Lilli娃娃出現在1950年，取材于漫畫中性感豪放女角莉莉——高11.5英寸不可穿透性愛玩偶。在他的書《性愛玩偶》中寫道：在歷史中，安東尼弗格森稱莉莉系列為“色情漫畫”。雖然她是銷售給成年男性的，但正如你所知，芭比娃娃的來源和靈感都出自于她，并還在不斷延續。
