Virtual Reality - the future of porn?
The film and media industries has forever changed the way people consume porn. Pornography has always been part of human society, but it wasn’t until film was invented that it could be created and enjoyed on a mass scale. And now, we are at the precipice of new technology, the VR or virtual reality. It can revolutionize everything in our lives, from education to relationships, business, and entertainment, both standard, and adult. But how will VR porn change the pornographic industry?
More toys
As virtual reality becomes more widespread and its adaptability reaches to all society, everyone, not just gamers and tech geeks, will use virtual reality to enhance their lives. People will be able to go to school at home, interact with their coworkers in a virtual space, shop and browse a virtual store at home, but still receive an immersive shopping experience, and they could add variety and a new level of intimacy with VR sex. One way person a person could enhance their sex life is if they use VR enabled sex toys. But the ability to use sex toys on a person you don’t know in VR, will also directly affect two other points in this article: VR prostitution and VR porn sessions.
For example, let’s say a viewer is watching virtual porn in front of them while they have a VR sex toy enabled. If the video can switch on and off gadgets at certain times of the video, then the viewer can be part of the interaction and no longer just a passive viewer. This way, sexual experiences can be enhanced because it adds a level of surprise and excitement since the viewer doesn’t know when the toy is going to turn on or it would intensity is going to be switched to.
Virtual prostitutes
The world of prostitution and adult entertainment is rife with sexual exploitation, abuse, and underpowered individuals. The abuse and near enslavement of prostitutes by their owners is happening all over the world, and the supply of unwilling women in only increasing, partly because of the lack of sexual assault-based assistance in many countries. Another part would be how “reusable” a prostitute is. You can only sell drugs to someone once, but you can sell a prostitute again and again. Even prostitutes who work in countries that give them legal protection and legal status as professionals have to watch out for dangerous clients and STDs. But this can completely change with the introduction of virtual prostitutes
Not only will virtual prostitution keep prostitutes and their clients STD free, but the prostitute themselves will also be protected from crime. Technically there is no actual sex going on even though money was exchanged. There was no physical presence of a prostitute in a client engagement sex, so there is nothing that the prostitute can be arrested for. Also, since there is no actual touching, both client and prostitute can be safe from STDs and dangerous people with evil intentions. However, both the client and prostitute will have to have sex toys that they can use on each other at will.
More Options and interactions
Nobody in their right mind would be allowed pornstars to have sessions with a hundred of their best fans all at once in real life. But with the use of VR and VR porn, this is doable. Imagine having a service where multiple people can engage and interact with a porn video at the same time. They’ll be able to play with anyone in the video and mimic the movements of the actors.
Porn stars will even be able to host one on one sessions with clients and engage in toy enabled sexual acts with them. The level of customization that VR porn will bring to the industry will completely change the way porn is made.
A rise in neglected home life and responsibilities
Like everything else in this world, people can become addicted to VR porn. It is a hot topic to debate because it not only does VR porn have all the features of pornography; it will also have some of the features of sex because it is immersive and partly physical. With these two major features in place, you should not be surprised if there is a rise in admittance to addiction centers for sexual addiction. Just like some people are addicted to pornography and addicted to videogames, there will also be a small number of people who are addicted to VR porn. But they should be treated like any other addiction patient. I think it is important that the industry start studying pornography addiction now to prepare for VR porn addiction.
If someone is addicted to VR porn, they will neglect many other things in their life and try to absorb and consume as much VR porn as possible. Plus, since they are being stimulated by so much VR porn, it will take them longer to become aroused since they are so desensitized. This isn’t this desensitization that will further the cycle and force them to consume even more VR porn. They will also neglect the sexual needs of their partners if they have one. Because of the wide variety of sexual activities you can engage in VR porn, they may stop appreciating their flesh and blood partner that is sleeping in their bed. Professional lawyers and therapists will have to deal with their clients seeking therapy and divorcing their spouse because of VR porn.
Conclusion
It is a matter of years before VR porn explodes and takes the world by storm. It is crucial that we get ready for the many advantages and issues that society is going to face. VR porn can be a conduit to make your sex life better and engage in new ways with your partner, or it can be a vehicle to when your life and fall into debt. It is up to the user how they choose to embrace VR porn.
