In June 2005, the Italian authoritative newspaper “Evening Post” reported that the world’s first personalized love doll was successfully manufactured by the Nazis in September 1941, and was a secret task issued by Hitler himself.
The Evening Post’s report is well-founded, and it has shocked readers worldwide by revealing a lot of historical details. Some even awarded Hitler the title of “Father of Inflatable Dolls” directly. In 2010, the American writer Anthony Ferguson published the monograph “History of Sex Dolls”, which also elaborated on the process of the Nazi’s invention of sex dolls.
Driving trucks, tanks, and carrying inflatable dolls?
“The biggest danger of our army in Paris is the widespread and unrestricted prostitutes who can solicit customers at bars, discotheques or elsewhere. It is our duty to protect the health of our soldiers.” Territorial Heinrich Himmler wrote so in a letter of November 20, 1940. He was referring to the SS soldiers contracting syphilis and gonorrhea as they visited brothels when they occupied France and Poland.
During World War II, a large number of soldiers expeditions abroad. For a long time, these soldiers could not reach the opposite sex through normal channels. Therefore, their sexual desire became an urgent problem. Himmler was convinced that creating a sex doll to replace women was imminent for the Nazi army. To this end, Nazi Germany’s senior officials developed a secret plan called “Borghild”, named after ordinary German women.
This task was given by Hitler himself to the SS commander Heinrich Himmler, which prompted him to make this decision. It was the spread of widespread sexually transmitted infections among soldiers that originated from prostitutes of non-Aryan ethnicity.
As we all know, during World War II, the U.S. military and Germany sent planes to each other ’s territory to distribute pornographic leaflets to combat the morale of the other side. Compared with the rigorous personality of the Germans, the U.S. military distributes leaflets with pictures and accompanying “fascinating” stories. Make the enemy crazy.
Although the “Borghild” plan “benefits” the soldiers, those Nazi soldiers who drive trucks and tanks but also carry inflatable dolls look very funny, and they will also be a great joke for the enemy. As a result, the “Borghild Project” was placed in a top-secret at the beginning.
Himmler selected some experts from the Nazi Defense Forces and formed a professional team to develop inflatable dolls. To conceal the eyes, the plan was implemented by the German Health Museum in Dresden and started with a batch of disinfection laboratories. This was a behind-the-scenes team that was directly obedient to Himmler. The person responsible for leading and supervising this team was then the famous German technician and synthetic material expert Franz Cinchacht. Himmler thought of him the first time because the latter produced a famous model called “Glass Woman” in the 1930s. Later, the team joined Joachim Marigosko and Oren Hannussen. Other important members include psychiatrist Rudolf Chagheimer, and one was only in the art department at the time. Student and later sculptor Arthur Link.
All members of this team must strictly maintain this secret to the outside world as the highest-level military secret at the time. It was not until the post-war decades that this matter was gradually revealed by the media.
The “Borghild” program began in June 1940 and officially ceased operation in January 1942, and only survived for a year and a half. But at the beginning of the plan, Himmler and the team were extremely confident, just like their initial victory on the European battlefield. Such self-confidence stems from the fact that they consider the Aryans to be the best and most intelligent people in the world. Before the first personalized love dolls were made, they were already anxious: what if sex dolls became popular? How about it?
Find a female athlete first, then a movie star
Or because of Chinchacht’s inefficiency, after one year of implementation of the “Borghild” plan, soldiers on the battlefield still did not enjoy this benefit. This task is not as simple as originally thought.
In fact, at the same time as the “Borghild” plan was launched, the German chemical giant Fabien was also developing a batch of synthetic plastic models with good skin and elasticity for the SS, but they did not know how to make them. Only those soldiers would like these plastic dolls.
Chin Chuck, the early director of the “Borghild” project, thought to use real female models as the object of imitation. He invited a group of famous female athletes to take pictures in his studio, including participating in the Olympic track and field events. Wilhelmina von Bremen and Annette Walter. But in the process of making sex dolls, Chinchacht found it impossible to use these athletes as imitation objects. He wrote in a letter to Marigotko: “Many times, their legs are short, they look particularly ugly, and their arms are similar to wrestlers. In short, the whole sex doll is nauseating. And there is no way to assemble the individual parts to form a complete human body model. “
After discussion, they came up with a new plan, which was to find the film and television stars of the time as the object of imitation, and agreed to be charming and playful faces, like the famous movie star Cass von Nagy at the time. When Marigosko went to look for beauty Najib, the latter politely rejected the request to use her face on a sex doll.
In July 1941, when Hitler’s army attacked the Soviet Union, Marigotsk quit the “Borghild” program, and the anonymous but ambitious Danish Oren Hannuson joined the team, and the physician became The head of this team.
The Second World War has been going on for two years, and the Nazis are trying to capture Stalingrad, which is of great political significance. Hanson let everyone speed up to complete the plan. As the initiators, they do not have any reference materials, and it is difficult to achieve similarity to the real human body in terms of plastic technology.
Thalheimer wrote to Hanson, stating the difficulty of the plan: “The purpose and purpose of making sex dolls are indeed to save our soldiers from the depths of the water. They must fight with the men of the enemy country and risk At the risk of contracting an illness, “fighting” with foreign women in bed expressionlessly. However, compared to a real woman, no man is willing to hey with dolls, unless our technology meets the following quality standards: Article First, the synthetic human body must have a real woman-like touch; second, the body and limbs of the sex doll must be as flexible as real people; third, the organs of the sex doll must make people feel that they are completely real. “
In addition to the technical difficulties, in terms of the appearance and aesthetics of sex dolls, they do not know how to position them. This plan certainly caters to the aesthetic standards of the Nazi army, and in their own words, sex dolls must have all the qualities of an Aryan woman. Half a century later, according to a Norwegian media report, Hitler also made very specific requirements for the shape of sex dolls during the war: they must be saucy ladies with sexy appearance, white skin, golden hair, blue eyes, height of 176 cm, of course, they also have thick lips and big breasts.
Is the kind of watery poppy woman
Han Hansen abandoned the idea of using the face of a real model to make a sex doll. He believes that faces full of desire are more exciting for soldiers. There is a passage in his personal diary published behind him: “These dolls have only one use (for venting). When the soldiers and Borghild hey, there is no relationship at all. So these sex machines The face must be real, that is, the face of a woman with a watery poppy, as Otto Weininger (Austrian philosopher) portrayed in her masterpiece “Sex and Personality.”
From this, 10 slutty faces that are about the size of a real person were made into models. These faces were sampled among a group of soldiers, and their feedback was used as a test specimen. After this experiment, both Chagheimer and Hannuson were convinced that the success or failure of sex dolls mainly depends on their facial expressions. The results of the subsequent tests were true as expected, and those vulgar women’s faces provoked the soldiers’ great interest. The model was soon put into production at a factory in Königsberg (Kaliningrad, Soviet Union after World War II).
Twenty-five centuries later, Arthur Link recalled in the media how Hannison created 10 faces and asked Chagheimer to take psychological tests. The link also claimed that at that time he and Chinchat had already completed a sex doll model. “We plan to make three models of sex dolls, Type A is 168 cm, Type B is 176 cm, and Type C needs The height of 182 cm. The members of the team have divided on the sex doll’s chest. Our German SS wants the chest to be round and bulging, but Hansen, a Danish doctor, insists on making a wild rose hip shape. Apparently he won the argument in the end. So the first Boghild doll was born, and she really looked like a Nordic. “
The first love doll was produced in September 1941, just before Himmler’s military parade in Berlin. Himmler is said to have expressed great enthusiasm for this sex doll, and he ordered 50 on the spot.
According to Link, “We were likely to get some special production equipment at that time because Chinchat’s laboratory was too small to produce 50 personalized love dolls.”
A week later, something unexpected happened. Himmler not only did not add equipment to them, but canceled the order of the sex dolls, and cut the budget of this plan. Because of the unfavorable situation, the Nazis invested financial focus on The wider battlefield, especially in the East.
Compared to the defeat on the front line, the welfare plan for making inflatable dolls seems trivial, and then “Borghild” is put on the shelf. The Allies bombed Dresden in February 1945, and the health museum was also destroyed. Today, Link is the only surviving participant in the project. In order to prove that the sex doll was indeed created by their own hands, Link also once publicized two photos of the model that was completed at the time.
