A complete guide to unique types of VR porn
When it comes to adult content, VR allows individuals to go beyond traditional content into the most mind-blowing and immersive experiences possible. SexLikeReal is at the forefront of this VR porn movement and has a vast library full of unique activities that aren't available anywhere else. Here’s a rundown of the VR-specific offerings you can find on SLR.
Who says porn is just for the men? While males make up most of SLR’s user base, there is a growing number of female-focused scenes. These clips can vary greatly, from one-on-one scenes with a single male to group sex with both men and women.
Because this content is geared toward women, it doesn’t play as much into male fantasies or tropes. Scenes can include a date that ends well, a study session that gets horny, or a full-on gangbang where users can be as open-minded as they want.
Lesbian scenes are also heavily featured, so there is some crossover between men and women viewership. However, as more women adopt both VR technology and adult entertainment, female POV scenes will only become more prevalent.
Edging is when someone brings you to the brink of having an orgasm, but then doesn’t let you climax. The goal is to have you hold out as long as possible, sometimes as a form of punishment. However, many individuals say that edging can lead to more intense orgasms, so there is a distinct benefit to the practice.
While edging is a somewhat common trope in modern adult entertainment, some studios build their entire brand around it. VREdging, for example, is centred around the practice, and the studio has over 100 videos on SLR alone.
Because edging is more of a personal experience, all of these clips are shown from the viewer’s point of view. Also, while it’s hard for there to be a direct one-to-one comparison between the actor and the user, individuals often try to hold out as long as their counterparts on screen.
Edging scenes can also run the gamut and cover a wide range of locations and situations. Overall, these clips are highly sensual and much more intimate than traditional porn.
Because of the ubiquity and abundance of online porn, viewers have more options than ever when it comes to getting off. However, having so many options can feel a bit overwhelming, leading to some users endlessly scrolling to find the “perfect” video.
Another common practice among users is switching from one clip to the next. This way, they can titillate themselves with different scenes and setups and find what works best for them. However, moving between these clips can be time-consuming, which is where the compilation video comes in handy.
Compilation videos serve a couple of purposes. First, they bring together related scenes so users can enjoy them in rapid succession. However, most compilations focus on a particular section of a scene, such as the cumshot, blowjob, or cowgirl position.
So, another primary benefit of compilation videos is that users don’t have to scrub through their favorite scenes to find what they want. Instead, they can enjoy their preferred moments from various clips, getting an even better experience overall.
The primary appeal of VR porn is that it feels more intimate and personal than watching a video on a computer screen. So, it makes sense that users would want an experience that goes beyond physical stimulation.
Girlfriend scenes are pretty common on SLR and other sites, but a virtual girlfriend scene goes a step further. In addition to helping the user get off, they serve as a proxy for more of a human connection.
Virtual girlfriend experiences can be quite popular because they fulfill a specific fantasy on a more emotional level. Also, users can literally pick their girlfriend, making it easier to enjoy the scene from start to finish.
While there are many different ethnicities on SLR, virtual girlfriend scenes feature many Japanese models. These clips play into the fantasy of having a beautiful, submissive Japanese girlfriend, and they can be incredibly effective.
Since 2010, autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) content has become a pretty big niche. If you’re unfamiliar with the term, it refers to videos and podcasts that highlight specific auditory sensations. Some examples can include:
- Tapping
- Heavy Breathing
- Chewing and Crunching
- Whispering
- Smacking
By hyper-fixating on these sounds, users can trigger an autonomous response that feels all tingly and exciting. So, it makes sense that porn purveyors would tap into this growing market.
Many ASMR porn videos feature the same elements of a regular scene, but the volume is turned up on different sounds and effects. Other scenes may feature a model talking softly into a microphone to give the user an even more intimate experience.
There’s nothing quite like the sensation of being aroused and listening to ASMR. Fans of both experiences will be eager to see how mixing them creates an even better orgasm.
Music videos have always been an excellent blend of auditory and visual stimulation to get the viewer hyped about a song. While traditional music videos can vary greatly from one genre to the next, the goal is to make something that fits the music without necessarily translating the lyrics into what’s on screen.
Porn music videos take this concept and make it even more sensual and explicit. By merging music and explicit content, viewers can get a unique and captivating experience that draws them in.
Although VR porn is super immersive, what would make the experience even better is if the headset could render the model in the user’s surroundings. This way, it feels like they’re having sex with someone in their own bedroom, living room, kitchen, etc.
Technically, this kind of content would be augmented reality (AR) instead of VR. However, some users have found a way to bridge the gap. Passthrough porn is when users watch a scene where the backdrop of the video is removed to reveal their own surroundings. Because headsets like the Oculus Quest have a camera on the front, users can see their own room as if it were part of the VR video.
Users have said it’s transformative and really enhances the experience. SLR is making this much easier to achieve, using tools within the app and helping create and identify suitable content that makes it easier to “pass through” the virtual barrier and blur the line between reality and fantasy.
