2023: Opening a brothel
On October 22, 2023, it became known that the world's first cyber brothel, a platform called Cybrothel, had opened in Berlin. The venue offers a variety of services to customers, including a private room with virtual reality (VR) technology, as well as a robotic sex doll named Kokeshi.
Various life-size silicone dolls are available to customers in the Cybrothel brothel. Visitors through a special site can choose the hair color, outfit and type of role-playing game. After that, they receive an email that indicates the time they visit the adult institution: the selected doll will shake the client in the specified room.
Audio and visual effects are available as options. In particular, the customer can wear a VR helmet, in which the cyber hook "comes to life," demonstrating emotions and reacting to what is happening. Dubbing actresses are responsible for dubbing: dolls can communicate in English and German. Cybrothel emphasizes that it strictly respects confidentiality: nothing that happens between the customer and the doll, including actions in the virtual space, is recorded.
Statistics suggest that 98% of cyber brothel visitors are men and only 2% are women. The average age of customers is 32-33 years. Cybrothel claims the establishment staff wash the dolls after each visit with water and pH-neutral soap. They are then disinfected with hydrogen peroxide. In addition, the room itself is disinfected.
Project founder Philipp Fussenegger says his business is "an adult playground and a new way to enjoy yourself." The cost of services depends on the options chosen: for example, you will have to pay about €130 for rest with immersion in VR space.[1]
