There are few things that can pose a danger to a child’s future like being sexually assaulted by a pedophile, and that’s why law enforcement and psychologists have been doing everything possible to stop them from getting near kids. The biggest problem is that scientists have discovered that pedophilia may actually be a mental anomaly that comes with a brain malformation, which means that it’s not a choice for them to be attracted to children. One company came up with a solution that could keep them from offending, but it may not be exactly what most people would have planned…

Trottla is a company that makes life-like sex dolls modeled after children as young as five. As of right now, the anatomically-correct child sex dolls are primarily female, and have been shipped to clients around the world. The idea behind it, according to Takagi, is that it will give pedophiles a way to “express their desires, legally and ethically.”

So far, there’s not very much evidence that the dolls work at their intended goal of preventing child molestation by pedophiles. Peter Fagan from the John Hopkins School of Medicine is skeptical of any research ever being conducted on the subject at all. Fagan did note that by looking at cognitive-behavioral theory, the products may actually have a “reinforcing effect” on pedophiles.

Beier also wants to explain to people that being a pedophile does not necessarily mean that they are a danger to children. What it all boils down to is whether or not they actually hurt kids.
