London, July 11 (IANS) Adolf Hitler ordered the Nazis to develop sex dolls for his soldiers so that they would not be affected with diseases after having sex with prostitutes, says a new book.
The synthetic sex dolls - that were smaller than life-size and called 'gynoids' - were made from silicone and designed to prevent soldiers from being hit by diseases like syphilis, the Daily Mail reported.
Hungarian actress Kathe von Nagy was reportedly asked if the doll could be modelled on her but she refused.
The doll was later 'left bland' with only blonde hair and blue eyes so that 'soldiers could apply their own fantasy', the book said.
Author Graeme Donald uncovered the sex doll 'Borghild Project' while researching the history of the Barbie doll.
