The connection between technology and pornography is so close that pornography on the Internet is always difficult to banish. Sexual content promoters will always do everything they can to attract users' attention. Nowadays, VR is booming, and the immersive immersive experience that virtual reality advertises has undoubtedly allowed sex workers to see new opportunities for development. Earlier, Piper Jaffray, an investment bank, had boldly asserted that by 2025, pornography will become the top three consumer content of the VR platform together with video games and sports broadcasts.
As far as the technical development of VR is concerned, we certainly hope that the effect it presents will be as realistic as possible. But when it comes to pornography, it seems to have to be considered.
A number of psychologists have come forward to point out that it is not necessarily a good thing that pornographic consumer content is more and more true.
“The kind of sexual depiction in pornography is not true. It is not the “teaching material†for people who have entered the relationship between the two sexes. Because that is what professional actors pretend.†The viewer must be able to discern. The audience watch the movie. If you have passion, it may feel very general to do it yourself. It will feel like you are being deceived.†Sexologist Marty Klein told the author. "The consumers of these adult videos — and their/his partners — should recognize that the film is not the same as real life."
VR pornography has not yet become a climate, but with the popularity of VR devices, this consumption content will quickly spread. As far as it can bring about the "immersive" effect, it is far from being comparable to ordinary magazines or DVD videos. The author uses iPhone5 and Homido VR to build a simple VR device. The Internet simply "experiences" what is called VR pornography. There are so many different kinds of video sites in the world, and there are few VR porn videos that can be watched. However, in terms of its experience, despite being a savvy VR device like the author, the effect is also very impressive.
Neil Malamuth, a professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, is an expert in pornographic video research. He also recently experienced the power of VR pornography. "I have to admit that this is an unprecedented experience," he said. "It feels like you're really sitting in the same room as the girl. When she talks to you, she looks straight into your eyes. Compared to traditional video, this It will be a more intimate viewing experience. The voyeuristic spring is coming."
However, current VR pornography is still a one-way performance-viewing program that does not allow viewers to really participate and interact.
It is so easy to open up for hidden desires, and it's hard to believe that it will not affect personal psychology and social health.
In an interview earlier this year, Marams compared the effects of pornography and alcohol on people: “If you ask me, is the wine good or bad? I’ll answer, depending on how you use it. For those Alcoholism is certainly bad for drunken alcoholic people, but for others, if they use proper wine, they can help them relieve stress and create interest.I think pornography also has this double-sided effect. It's bad. It depends on how you use it."
As such, the impact of VR pornography will vary from person to person. As VR Porn provides a more realistic experience, it will even more provocative criminal trends. “For those few people who are on the verge of criminality, pornography is like burning a fire, causing them to lose their sense of intellect, desires to dazzle their heads and do something they should not,†said Marams.
On the other hand, if viewed properly, adult content can also serve as a demonstration of behavior to help viewers to better experience sexual pleasure. "Some people are not used to having sex with real people. Then watching pornographic videos can provide a release for their desires."
Not everyone is so worried. Dr. David Ley, a clinical psychologist, said: “People’s fear of VR pornography should also be the same as those in the past. It is a technical fear.†Just as people thought that riding a bicycle would make women become homosexual. There have also been concerns that the presence of female masturbation devices threatens women’s demand for men. There is also an argument in Utah, USA: The proliferation of pornographic content on the Internet will completely ruin the youth's longing for marriage. Children will think that sexual intercourse between men and women, but the previous romance and warmth gone.
"I don't think VR porn can make waves," Dr. Lay added. "Because watching VR requires more aggressive preparations, like buying helmets, looking for film sources, you have to avoid the crowd watching such a big thing. But don't forget that laziness is human nature, not necessarily how many people will A few minutes of stereoscopic video and a big fee."
VR technology can also help users exchange their own roles in sexual behavior. For example, a man can choose to experience the entire process of engagement from the perspective of a woman. “You looked down and saw that it was your own chest and slender legs.†Malams said, “This will be a brand new experience. Of course some people may not be good at this. But I want to be For people, this novel sexual experience and sensory experience will be very interesting."
