Voodoo dolls, in general, are recognized as objects typically used in folk magic traditions, particularly in West African, Haitian, and Louisiana Voodoo practices. In popular culture and contemporary society, the concept of a sexy voodoo doll has been adapted and shaped into a more tantalizing and sensual product.

Oct. 24, 2008, 8:38 PM UTC / Source : LiveScience By By Heather WhippsA controversial voodoo doll is proving to be quite the pain in the side of French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
The doll, which features Sarkozy's likeness and is being sold in some French stores, comes with a set of pins and an instruction manual on how to inflict voodoo curses on him.
Sarzoky is now suing the producer of the doll, which he says is an affront to his reputation and a misuse of his personal image.
It is unlikely that the publisher or Sarkozy have thought much about voodoo's ancient roots during the doll fiasco, but the practice is in fact just one insignificant part of a complex belief system that makes up the mysterious religion, which is still practiced in many parts of Africa, Haiti, Jamaica and Louisiana, among others.
Vodoun, as the official religion is called by most of its practitioners, has little to do with the black magic, as its detractors suggest.
It does, however, have a lot to do with zombies.
The precise beginnings of voodoo are unknown, but the West African country of Benin is considered the birthplace of the religion, most historians agree.
Voodoo means "spirit" in the local language, and probably evolved there from ancient traditions of animism, or the belief that otherworldly spirits can inhabit the body of humans and animals.
Relationships with spirits is the central tenet of voodoo, whose followers believe in one supreme God in addition to a number of spirits representing the deceased soul of a once-living person.
Anyone can become possessed by spirits, who offer help to the living in the form of good fortune and protection from evil, according to voodoo myths. Voodoo priests guide the interaction between the living and the dead, and can call upon certain spirits depending on the community's need, it is believed.
While voodoo continued relatively unabated in West Africa — it is still an official religion in Benin with more than 4 million followers there alone — it left African shores in the 17th century with the slave trade.
Once spread throughout the Caribbean, the southeastern United States and parts of South America, displaced Africans felt a common thread through voodoo, though the religion morphed to include elements of Christianity to appease Catholic slaveholders.
Voodoo thrived most potently in Haiti, where it remains a common belief system to residents while shrouded in mystery to outsiders.
It's that mysterious element of the religion that allows black magic myths such as the use of voodoo dolls to proliferate in popular culture, experts say.
In actuality, voodoo dolls were unheard of or very rare in Africa and Haiti, and had only a small surge in popularity when voodoo migrated from Haiti to New Orleans in the early 1900s. Even then, the dolls were often used for benevolent purposes, such as helping an infertile couple conceive. The concept of pinpricking-for-pain style voodoo dolls is mostly a product of Hollywood.
Something that has been found to exist in voodoo culture, however, is zombies, according to research done in Haiti by anthropologist Wade Davis in the 1980s.
Most Haitians believe that a dead person can be revived as a zombie, even after burial, Davis found, though few had ever admitted to seeing the real thing.
Investigating further, Davis uncovered several cases of individuals who had been put into a trance-like zombie state not by some magical incantation, but by a powerful poison administered by a voodoo priest. The poison, which contained toxins drawn from the Japanese puffer fish, can make its victim appear dead for several days, leading many victims to be buried alive before "awakening" in a zombie-like haze.
Getting "zombified" is sometimes used secretly as a punishment for doing wrong within the community, Davis said.
It does, however, have a lot to do with zombies.
Some individuals may use these dolls as props during role play or intimate encounters to enhance the overall experience. However, it is essential to note that voodoo dolls, including the sexy variations, hold different cultural and spiritual significance in their traditional contexts. These dolls are typically used for healing, protection, or influencing others positively. The sexualized version of these dolls deviates significantly from their original purpose and can be seen as a commodification or objectification of the voodoo tradition. It is crucial to approach the topic of sexy voodoo dolls with sensitivity and respect for the cultural origins and beliefs associated with voodoo practices. While they may be seen as playful and exciting objects in certain contexts, it is essential to avoid appropriating or misrepresenting cultural symbols and practices..
Reviews for "Elevate Your Bedroom Experience with a Sexy Voodoo Doll"
- Sarah - 1 star
I purchased the "Sexy voodoo doll" as a joke for a friend's bachelorette party, but it turned out to be a complete disappointment. First of all, the doll was way smaller than expected, barely the size of my palm. The quality was cheap and poorly made, with loose threads and uneven stitches. Additionally, the supposed "sexy" features were anything but. The outfit was tacky and ill-fitting, and the facial expression on the doll was just creepy. Overall, I would not recommend this product to anyone looking for a fun and well-made adult novelty item.

I was intrigued by the concept of the "Sexy voodoo doll," so I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, my excitement quickly faded as soon as I received the product. The doll had a strange plastic smell, and the material felt very flimsy, like it would tear at any moment. The small accessories that were supposed to come with it were missing, and customer service was unhelpful in resolving the issue. On top of that, the doll's joints were stiff and difficult to pose, making it even harder to use. Overall, the "Sexy voodoo doll" fell short of my expectations and left me feeling unsatisfied and disappointed.

I wish I could give the "Sexy voodoo doll" zero stars. This product was a complete waste of money. Not only did it arrive late, but it also came damaged. The stitching was already coming undone, and there were threads sticking out all over the doll. It looked nothing like the advertised picture, and the outfit was not even close to being sexy. The doll's body was poorly proportioned, and the face was downright creepy. I regret purchasing this item and would not recommend it to anyone. Save your money and look for something better!
