i'm reading cnn.com yesterday. something i do every day -- even several times a day. there is usually substantive news and then, under entertainment, there is the odd or snarky or hard to believe news story. well, today took it all to a new height. a life-like, siliconed-skin, multi-personalitied doll to have sex with. and to own it costs 7 thousand dollars. seriously?

i was on the phone with a friend when i found the story. i began reading it to her and we were laughing so hard i was crying. the doll's name is roxxxy. pretty clever that triple x in her name, huh?  and you can call her by one of her 5 other personality names: nora nympho, susie skank, felicia ... you get the idea. how odd has life become that you would want to part with 7 thousand dollars so you can have sex with a doll? ok, her skin is kept warm to the touch, her battery lasts 3 hours and she can contort herself shamelessly.

so, where will i find the positive in this you might be asking about now? who's to question love or lust? who's to question someone's type? not i. it's apparently aimed at shy, awkward or older men who have trouble meeting women. how about husbands who prefer a quiet woman or men who travel a lot or who are tired of j date?

wwcd: here goes -- there's someone for everyone
