Here’s Why VR Porn May Some Day Top Real Sex
Okay, nothing beats real sex, day in and day out. Yet if you’re looking to spice up your sex life or want to experience something new, VR porn offers a great, sensual escape. Virtual Reality porn is quickly closing the gap with good old fashion in-person sex. And as VR technology advances, expect VR porn to continue to improve.
Imagine. You’re enjoying a sensual moment at home with your loved one. But instead of the bedroom, you’re in a hotel room with a great view of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Or maybe you’re on the rebound and looking to score. Instead of hitting up Tinder or the local bar, you enjoy a virtual session with your favorite porn star.
These experiences are becoming the virtual reality. In France, one brothel has already opened up offering virtual experiences with silicon sex dolls. At the Sydney Expo, the biggest draw was arguably the free VR googles that were being passed out. A lucky 20,000 visitors got cardboard headsets that turned their smartphone into a virtual reality experience.
VR porn is becoming very popular. But can it replace real world sex? Let’s take a look at some key factors.
Virtual Reality Experiences Are Rivaling the Real World
If you happened to catch the Lightsouthern VR stall at Sexpo, you were in for quite the treat. Imagine this: You’re on the stroll through the Australian bush. The birds are singing, the bees are buzzing. Steam rises as you approach a watering hole. Your heartbeat increases. Rounding the foliage, you see two women making out. Where’s this going? You’ve probably got a good idea already.
You look over both shoulders, is this real? The screen moves with you, the imagery changing. You look down, you’ve got on blue shorts and something rising beneath. This may not be real but it sure as hell feels like it. VR porn offers an experience that emulates the real thing and as technology continues to improve, the experience will continue to improve as well.
If you watch viewers at Sexpo VR events which feature many VR porn studios, you might notice some of them stretching out their hands or shifting their position. That’s because they’re so absorbed in the experience, they get truly sucked in.
Virtual Reality Sex Adventures Can Spice Your Sex Life Up
Erotic novels remain hot sellers in fiction. Here we have one of the oldest media forms competing with Internet porn, and books are holding their own. Why? Part of it may be the immersive experience offered by a book. Once you get sucked into a novel, your brain can take over, creating hot and steamy imagery.
One minute you’re flipping through pages, the next, you’re in the Caribbean, a horny Latina porn star is shoving her hand down your pants. Novels can transport people to worlds far away. So too can virtual reality porn and it won’t be just about hopping in bed, but the whole experience.
Imagine this, you’re sitting in the living room. Only, you’re actually in the redlight district in Amsterdam. Strolling Amsterdam’s streets (from your couch), you’re checking out escorts stripping in the windows. Then, you see a bombshell pornstar. Stepping in, you’re greeted with a smile and maybe a quick tug.
Exciting virtual reality porn videos will make it possible for you to go on such sex adventures right from the comfort of your own home. You won’t have to worry about seedy red-light districts or STDs. Just focus on having good old fashion fun.
Use Virtual Reality for Out of Body Experiences
Another cool thing about virtual reality is that it opens up whole new experiences that you can’t really have in real life. Some VR porn experts have found that women and men like to use VR porn to experience sex from the other gender’s perspective. VR porn can allow you to virtually inhabit someone else’s body, more or less.
Then there are the many, many kinks. Some people want to hook up with cartoons or “furries”. Furry convention and the like are quite popular. With VR sex, fantasy porn can become a virtual reality.
Many people also love live sex cam shows, watching people bang live or jilling off with interactive sex toys. With VR, you can turn the cam experience into a 3D, interactive experience. This way, you can bring the show to life, enjoying a truly teleportational experience.
Ultimately, virtual reality can unleash your imagination. That’s true with video games, travels, and yes, sex.
How VR Porn Offers a Full Body Experience
One big obstacle with virtual reality is feeling sensation. If you’ve ever seen the move or read the book, “Ready Player One”, you may remember that the characters wear special suits that offer sensation. In the real world, people are working on haptic feedback suits that can be used as “sex suits” and for other applications.
Some haptic feedback suits, including sex suits, are already being sold. That said, the technology has a long way to go and content creators too will have to figure out how to get the best out of haptic suits.
Once VR can be combined with real world sensing and feeling, the potential to replace real-world sex will become all the more feasible. While visual content is appealing, many people want real world sensations, not just images.
With haptic sex suits, it’ll be easier for people to literally get in on the action.
Using VR to Address Sexual Issues
Virtual Reality may also emerge as in important therapy tool for people suffering from sexual issues. Experts are just now exploring VR as a therapy, so its effectiveness and application potential is just now being explored. So far, scientists are only beginning to learn how effective VR could be, but the early results have been promising.
Already, VR is being used to treat phobias. If you’re an arachnophobe, for example, some VR sessions with a virtual spider may help you acclimate to interactions with spiders. Eventually, this could make it easier for you to encounter spiders in the real world. Any sex phobias or performance anxiety may similarly be treatable. Virtual reality is also being used to address Post-Traumatic Stress Disorders (PSTD).
With all that in mind, VR may be effective for treating other anxiety related issues, including in the bed. Virtual Reality therapy is also being explored as a potential therapy for people who have suffered from sexual issues. Victims can “confront their fears” with VR while also not exposing themselves to danger.
VR Porn Makes Sexual Kicks Obtainable Amid Pandemic
Around the world, countless people have gone through pandemic lockdowns. Sadly, COVID-19 precautions are well justified. While vaccines are entering the market, the pandemic will likely rage for several more months, at the least.
So how are you supposed to satisfy your sexual kicks if you can’t even meet up for a date, let alone a home-run hookup? Even if you find a match on Tinder, good luck getting him or her to meet up.
Yet virtual reality allows you to explore the world, and bedrooms spread across the globe, while remaining safely inside your own home. Meet up for a date (or digital sex) with a potential hookup but do so through VR.
No Surprise That VR Porn is Exploding in Popularity
Given all the above, it should come as no surprise that virtual porn is becoming increasingly popular. Demand for VR sex videos and clips began to explode in 2017. Pornhub, perhaps the world’s leading porn site, saw demand for VR sex clips triple in the course of just one year, rising to 500,000 views per day.
Don’t be surprised if VR porn views hits the millions per day in the near future. Experts expect VR porn to be a billion-dollar industry by 2025. Already the VR porn industry is worth many millions.
Some even argue that porn has been the first real “boom” in virtual reality. While video games have also emerged as popular VR entertainment, so far, porn is arguably the best performing segment.
With headsets increasing in quality while dropping in price, virtual reality will probably get more popular in the future. And as more people purchase VR headsets, more companies and creators are going to produce content, including VR porn.
Will VR Porn Replace Real-World Sex?
Let’s go back to the original question: could virtual reality replace sex? On the whole, probably not. However, VR could be used to supplement sex, providing couples with new experiences, and offering sensual comfort and carnal satisfaction to single and/or lonely individuals. VR porn may also one day become the preferred method for porn consumption.
VR porn can also help couples spice up their experiences in bed. Even if you love your spouse or significant other deeply, routine sex can get boring. Yet it’s hard for couples to change things up. A trip to Paris, for example, might be just what you need to kindle some love, but busy careers and expensive airfare make that difficult. With VR experiences, you may be able to hop over to Paris from the comfort of your own bedroom.
