Click following for an amusing Real-Life Turkish Experience involving a Blow-Up Doll.
Plot summary: When he can't find a flesh-and-blood soul mate, an unfortunate middle-aged man (Mehmet Ezici) resorts to love in the form of a Blow-Up Doll, with tragic consequences. Plot Highlights: A man is unable to establish a close relationship with a woman, so he resorts to buying a Blow-Up Doll. He takes it home, and makes satisfying love to it. He soon becomes so attached to the doll that he marries it in a ceremony he performs by himself -- and starts living with the doll as if he were married. Without announcing his new 'marital status' to his male friends, he continues to go out at night with them as usual, but he silently reminds himself that, "My wife is waiting" -- and he always returns home early. Once home, he talks with the doll for hours. His friends become suspicious about his situation, and one day when the man isn't home, they enter his house and see the Blow-up Doll. As a joke (in extremely bad taste), the friends 'kidnap' the doll to a remote place where they take turns 'raping' it. Upon learning that his 'wife' has been 'abducted and raped', the man becomes certifiably insane and, on the grounds that his friends have injured his honor, he murders all three of them in cold blood.
