Web sex

:wave:

BBC3 are making a documentary about webcam sex and web sex and are trying to get a real idea of what people are up to. They’ve asked if you could take 2 minutes to complete the anonymous survey. www.onlinerelationships.org.uk

And while you're at it (and to give this thread more of a point) do any of you actually say the words 'web sex' in real life? :chin:

    I'd never use the phrase "web sex" because it's just sex, innit.

    You can have sex in bed, you can have sex in a car or on a beach or on the bins behind the nightclub. And you can have sex online. It's all just sex.

    I don't get why people say it's sex, it's not really.

    Depends what you mean by sex. If you take sex to mean penetration and nothing else then no, it probably isn't. But sex is about far more than sticking your penis in a girl or boy.

    I'd say webcamming, or going to look at strippers, or looking at porn is all a sexual experience.

    Yeah I know what you mean. I agree that sex doesn't have to mean putting a penis into a vagina. Or even a bum. But I think it does have to involve physical contact between two (or more) people, which is why wanking while watching someone else online who is also wanking doesn't seem to me to meet the necessary conditions to count as having sex. Undoubtedly it's a sexual experience, but on a spectrum of sexual experiences, wanking on webcam comes closer to the masturbation end of the spectrum than the actual sexual contact end.

    :yes:

    I actually find it much more...uncomfortable (not quite the right word, but eh)...because your physical flaws are much more evident when people are watching you rather than touching you. Especially if you can't also see them.

    Not that that's ever stopped me doing it :o

    I'd say it was closer to mutual masturbation than anything else.

    Put it this way, I'd considering it cheating.

    The term I remember is "cyber sex" from back in the days of yahoo chatrooms and such. a/s/l? 13/f/england, hehe, you?

    I suppose I am in two minds about this, while I see it more of a porn type of scenerio - masturbating to something on the internet, but unlike porn, I would be upset if I found out a partner was doing it. Perhaps not as upset as if he had went out and slept with somebody, but still upset. Though it is hard to say without being in that situation. Plus you have to add in if it was somebody they knew or a random person, so many variables.

    That's what I remembered it as - and was confused to see it being named 'web sex' and 'camming'!

    The few times I remember having cyber sex I was about 13/14 and the girl was generally 18+ on hotmail chatrooms. I think it was all of two or three times, I didn't really enjoy it that much as it was a bit weird, I preferred talking to girls and getting emotionally intimate e.g. talking about fantasies to go on a picnic and cuddle under the sky all day... ^_^ my names not there just for show! I remember on one or two occasions webcam sessions with older girls which given my age at the time was probably technically illegal, but meh, didn't think much about it. I honestly suspect that the amount of underage cybersex is understated but perhaps it's just a normal phase for young teens to go through.

    When I got older of course I talked dirty to girls online but its not cyber sex or anything but merely filthy flirting. "I'm horny, come here" etc. In fact there have been occasions a girl has been saying dirty things to me and I was just watching something on youtube, would alt-tab to message them something equally filthy back and back to the video. So I suppose the point I'm making is it's never been a big turn on for me, I much prefer just having female attention and if dirty messaging is what makes them give me attention then that's great.

    On reflection, all my happiest memories are of me just doing intimate non-sexual stuff. Maybe that says something about me :p.

    Show me what you've got

    Let's get down to it
    So you can get down on me
    Cybering is so...1999.
    You've gotta be textually active
    if you wanna be mine!
    You see what my thumbs can do.
    Time to use my tongue on you.

    This says it all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4Crec6ZDyY

    Virtual sex, is normally defined by Cam whores and seexting...
    But it's not really sex, it's just mutual masturbation...

    Also with steve jobs take on Free iPhone video calling "FaceTime" There's already loads of websites, that you can do "iPhone 4 Play" ;)

    There's so many mediums that you can do sexual things on, although Cybering/Cybersex is probably the best way to describe it, as it's general and covers everything, and clicks, where as web sex, just sounds bad.

    It helps long distance relationships a lot! Phone sex seems a bit one-dimentional afterwards :P
