An
anatomically correct doll or
anatomically precise doll is a
doll with some of the
primary and
secondary sex characteristics of a human. In colloquial vernacular it usually refers to the genitals being depicted (after all, typical dolls are approximately anatomically correct with regard to most other parts of the anatomy). This can be for realism or educational purposes, as well as to satisfy inanimate
fetishism. A very detailed type of anatomically correct doll may be used in questioning children who may have been
sexually abused. The use of dolls as interview aids has been criticized, and the validity of information obtained this way has been contested.
