Are adult cams better than porn videos?
The adult industry has come a long way since the first erotic novels in the mid-1600s. After porn sites and sex tubes, we thought we had seen it all. But in a world of technological revolution and sexual liberation, a new market has been blooming: webcamming already made its way into the online world about a decade ago, and it’s here to stay.
So now the new question is posed: are adult cam sites better than porn video sites? To answer, we’ll have to look into the difference between both.
Live cams vs porn
At its core, porn is a tool to help people explore and indulge in their sexual fantasies. However, traditional porn only offers an approximation of what you desire, because porn videos are produced to appeal to a general audience, not your specific wishes. Cam sites, on the other hand, enable real-time interaction between viewers and performers. It’s relationship-based, and it’s completely changing sex on the Internet.
But what really makes camming stand out from other forms of adult entertainment, is the live interaction. Even though live cam sites are free, there is an option to use an online form of currency called tokens to get a premium experience. And by premium we mean PREMIUM. Tokens can be used to tip models and show them appreciation, but also to chat. Talking with the client is part of the business.
Clients have the freedom to choose the degree of intimacy they will have with the model according to how much they pay. Tipping to request the model to perform their desired actions is also one of the bonuses these sites got to offer. Ever wanted to be the scriptwriter and director of your own adult movie? Here’s your chance. But it doesn’t stop there. Most cam sites also hold Cam2Cam shows. The purpose of this type of session is to allow users to turn on their webcams and be seen and heard by the models.
Having a live show with your favorite porn star or cam girl is like sitting down with your favorite actor or musician. Do you imagine having a coffee with Leonardo Di for just some tokens? Well, we can’t assure that will happen, but if we change the name Leonardo for EvaElfie instead, then we’re talking!
What does camming have to offer to models?
From the performer’s perspective, live cams offer a more safe and feminism-friendly space to create content, as there’s a shift in female’s role. In the midst of a male-dominated pornography industry, webcamming gives women enough room to become highly entrepreneurial. In addition, they dictate the terms and conditions on which they are viewed, and they are the ones who keep control of their own image. In the camming industry, females hold a never-before-seen dominant role. Here are some of the benefits of being a cam model.
Live streaming culture and its ever-expanding influence made it possible for live camming to get to places traditional porn could not reach. Entrepreneurial women now have a new sex market to work in and which they have the power to define. Clients can experiment a whole new form of interaction and make their fantasies come true across a screen. We don’t know where technologies will take us in the future regarding adult entertainment, but we do know where we stand now. The present is webcam!
