What to expect: Unlike the others above, Emjoy's sole focus isn't on audio erotica. It also has the widest array of queer voices that I've seen (well, heard). Subscriptions are $8.99/month, or $47.99/year (with a one-week free trial).īottom line: Dipsea is for the user who prefers to be voyeuristic in their audio listening, as most of the stories are not self-insert. Medium: App (iOS and Android) and desktopĬost: Until 5/15, guided and how-to content is available for free free users can access 5-7 stories and sessions for free. The app also has how-to audios, guided solo or partner practices, and self-insert stories (which means it's one voice actor detailing what a character is doing to "you"). You can find what you want to listen to by browsing the site/app or searching various tags like "BDSM," "sex in public," and others.ĭipsea offers produced stories with ambient sounds that start out with a scenario (say, two strangers at a club, or a couple moving into a new place) that transitions into a sexy scene. Offerings include heterosexual and queer stories utilizing cis, non-binary, and trans voices there's also some group sex stories. What to expect: Dipsea releases its own audio stories on Sundays and doesn't take customer submissions (though you can apply to write or voice act on their website). That means this isn't an exhaustive list, but for those interested in dipping their toes into audio porn, this is for you. ![]() Here's a guide to some of them - for the sake of this list not being miles long, I left out pages on social media (like subreddits and the soundsofpleasure Tumblr page), and sites that aren't exclusively about audio porn, such as GirlsOnTheNet. I agree with Spiegel, and the number of audio porn apps and sites that are popping up signals that many others do too. "Everyone's like, 'oh, the more graphic the better,'" said Spiegel last year, "but actually, I think human desire is more complex than that." There's also the knowledge that the people in mainstream videos are performers, which can kill the mood.Īs my colleague Jess Joho wrote last year, "The best way to describe the vastly different experience between masturbating to visual rather than auditory porn is the difference between anonymous sex versus sex with a significant other." When you're watching people who look nothing like you have sex, it may be hard to get turned on at all. SEE ALSO: I tried the banned CES sex toy. Furthermore, many videos display conventionally attractive and oftentimes unattainable bodies - thin, white, able bodied, augmented breasts, labiaplastied vulvas - which can make the viewer feel less than, not sexy. Listening to audio porn doesn't evoke the same ethical concerns as watching mainstream porn, for one. Spiegel said that her site was born out of discovering audio porn because visual porn didn't appeal to her. What's more is that visual porn just doesn't work for some people. The listener can close their eyes, visualize the scene, visualize their partner. Audio allows the listener to drop into a fantasy more easily than watching people have sex on camera. They make up half of Quinn's users, founder Caroline Spiegel told me last year. But that doesn't mean that men aren't interested. Some women use "mental framing" (fantasizing) to get turned on, according to researchers. It's easy to see why audio porn made the leap from voice notes to full-on productions. While subreddits like r/gonewildaudio and sites like GirlsOnTheNet have been around for much longer, the recent flood of millennial-branded audio erotica offerings is hard to ignore. But there is an entire world separate from glossy high-production videos or homemade tapes: audio erotica.Īs I discovered last year when covering the site Quinn (which you'll read more about later), audio erotica is having a moment not unlike what's happening with podcasts. ![]() The ills of mainstream porn have been long reported, and there are plenty of visual porn alternatives out there for those interested. May is National Masturbation Month, and we're celebrating with Feeling Yourself, a series exploring the finer points of self-pleasure.
