i was looking around on wikipedia and i found from some other link the root to my fetish with the roman poem of pygmalion. the description of it all is here. while an english translation can be found here.
pygmalionism relates to statuephilia or agalmatophilia which all of course can be found at leem's site here.
but it doesn't quiet cover the people who want to become the dolls, the mannequins or the statues now does it?

a little older than rome though greek actually.
Hey, thanks for the link. A little publicity never goes amiss.
I used the Pygmalion picture myself as well as variations of it - I've even got a page about Gerome's art:
