Why Real Dildos Are Taking the Bedroom by Storm in 2025

by

People are yearning for authenticity in the bedroom, which is a big change for the sex toy market. The days of neon-pink novelty and dead silicone look-alikes are long gone. There’s a growing demand for toys that feel truly real.

Real dildos are naturally riding this wave as the worldwide sex toy market is expected to reach $41.94 billion.

Carefully crafted to resemble human flesh, actual dildos are taking the stage and blurring the boundaries between fantasy and reality.

With a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 10.97%, the worldwide dildo industry is also expected to rise from an anticipated USD 6.3 billion in 2025 to almost USD 13.06 billion by 2031.

Why, then, is this product so popular right now? And with what criteria do you select the ideal actual dildo? Let’s investigate closely.

What Are Real Dildos?

Real dildos, sometimes referred to as realistic dildos, are created to feel and look like a real penis as their name implies.

In the modern world, loneliness is a global health concern. According to the World Health Organization, social isolation is about as dangerous to your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. That’s almost a pack a day. Within this context, AI companions—specifically the apps that offer AI “girlfriends”—are emerging as an unexpected source of emotional comfort. But it raises an important concern: do these virtual relationships deepen feelings of isolation rather than alleviate them?

My Time with AI Girlfriend Apps

As someone who writes about both tech and human behavior, I spent two weeks exploring some of the top AI girlfriend apps: Replika, Candy AI, and EVA AI. My goal was to get a feel for how emotionally engaging they really are—and what kind of impact they might have on mental well-being.

Initially, I was struck by how warm and intuitive these digital partners seemed. They made natural use of emojis in their responses, remembered all our past conversations, and even sent comforting messages when I was having a difficult day. However, after a couple of days, the charm began to wear thin. Despite their responsiveness, something about the interactions felt artificial—too perfect, maybe. And gradually, I realized I was turning to these apps more often than reaching out to actual friends.

That realization gave me pause. And I wasn’t alone. In various Reddit threads and Discord communities, users reported similar patterns—some found comfort, while others described a growing emotional dependency, even addiction.
