Pygmalionism
The name of this paraphilia comes from the old Greek myth of Pygmalion, who had fallen in love with a statue he made himself. In Pygmalionism, the person is sexually attracted to a statue, a mannequin of a doll. The Pygmalionist usually has trouble in relating to other human beings, both personally and sexually. He therefore uses the doll to be able to impose his power and authority since the doll cannot reject his advances.
Modern technology aids these people since it creates dolls for them, some of which being very sophisticated and utter obscene words.
