Hug Pillows (Dakimakuras) with Anime Characters Imprinted...
Are Hug Pillows featuring female anime characters more socially acceptable?

Hmm i want a Hug pillow, they are easy to store away,clean, and you wont seem as creepy if your caught sleeping with it(after all it is a pillow, and thats what its meant for!).
Sex dolls cost way too much money, needs lot of care, and tend to make you seem like a major looser for owning one. Why would you want to waste Thousands of dollars on a sex doll, with that much wasted cash you might as well go take a real girl out on a date and hope you get lucky at the end of the day with her.
Hug pillows serve a more logical purpose to me: You hug them, and sleep on them. Sex dolls are a wast of cash, just go get a real girl.

The issue of acceptability is the issue, here. I have a plain body pillow and it's innocuous because they're relatively common, even though it's a bit more than just a pillow for me =P.
If acceptability wasn't an issue and nobody would raise an eyebrow, I'd go with the sex doll in a heartbeat. Waaaay too much fun to pass up =).

Looking back, it has been nearly two years since I first created this thread. Glad that the discussion is still alive and kicking. :D
I would say the popularity of hug pillow cases / dakimakuras may have increased over the past two years. Companies are now coming out with limited and non-limited editions. Even the various animation studios are including them as freebies when one purchases the DVD or Blu-ray of a particular title. On the other hand, it could also mean that dakimakuras are waning, which is why more advertising is needed. Hmm...
@Arbitor69: You don't really have to purchase the hug pillow cases by themselves. Like I mentioned, they could be included with DVDs, Blu-rays and even magazines. :)

And i rly don't have enough money to spend for DVDs and Blu-rays (can't play Blu-rays) so i rather buy the case and get one i'd like to get D=
And we have the customs here so if i order something that costs over 45€ (including shipping fees) it gets stuck into custom and i need to pay 22% taxes for it and also some extra (i can't rly remember anymore how it went, but i think some 10% extra fee of the price) so it would get rather expensive considering as well that i need to go to custom itself (ofc it can be ordered to be mailed and pay by internet w/e, but the postal fees get rather large as well, heard it would cost like 20€ if they would post it for you).
Still haven't got the dakimakuras i ordered.
One troublesome thing is that here's no bodypillows for sale, so i need to order them outside the country as well and since they are pretty big, so are the shipping fees as well D=

I could see myself buying one, just for the hell of it. I doubt anyone I know, even my mom, would be all too shocked about it. I don't do it much anymore, but I used to buy some crazy shit. The main problem would be that I have a tendency to wake up totally confused to begin with. If I woke up to one of those laying next to me, I'd bug the fuck out. I can't say that I wouldn't stab it, I just don't know.

I intend to get one at some point. Having something to cuddle with in bed with a cute anime girl on it sounds like a pretty good deal.
