Ningbo in China sex doll capital

London: A city in China has become the capital of sex dolls, as it boasts the highest number of sex doll factories in the whole country, pumping out thousands of inflatable ladies for customers.

Officials from the city of Ningbo have set their sights on putting the wind up the rest of the world, as the factories kicked off production just five years ago and mainly concentrated on customers in China, Japan, Korea and Turkey, the Mirror reported.

The factories are being flooded by calls from punters across the globe eager to get the dolls costing as little as 30 pounds, which litter the factory floor.

Factory worker Lili Hsing said that it's taken their breath away - and not because they have to blow up the dolls and the speed this industry has developed is truly exceptional.
