It's creepy af, hearing someone do hush-hush so close to the mic. Kind of gross, too.

I like non-vocal ASMR sometimes. I hate vocal, makes me feel squick.

>>15215i find the veiled sexuality/eroticism of stuff like this more gross than 'porn'.
porn is open and honest about what it is and what it's for, where stuff like this stuff is not. it's closeted. it lives in sfw spaces where you know people are jerkin' off to it. Which is part of the appeal i imagine.
not saying there is any issue with asmr being gross, porn is too, it all is–sex & gross go hand in hand~

>>15218It is a good coping mechanism. Some times I feel like there is no one for me, ASMR is a nice method to relieve stress and be at peace, even if it's all manufactured.
Yes there is people who may see it as erotic, but there is crazy things people find erotic on the internet, this isn't that bad really

When I think of "ASMR," I mostly think of recordings of things like mechanical keyboards clacking, or fountain pens writing. I do find these sounds to be rather soothing, but you folks seem to be talking about something very different. Either that, or there's a non-insignificant number of people who think that mechanical keyboard sounds are particularly sexual.

i just get horny when listening to it practically all the time
it also gives me chills and goosebumps and all kinds of weird feelings
i don't really listen to it because i am never in the mood i guess

It depends. I struggle with pathological anxiety, with it exacerbated at night when I'm tired. So I play it more as relaxing noise to distract myself. It's never anything creepy or erotic, it's usually Tolkien or video game lore.

I prefer going to sleep to stories.
As for NSFW female stuff it only reminds me of what I don't have and I have no intention to engage in parasocial fantasies

It's nice you can enjoy these things. ASMR gives me the ick. I don't really like the close sounds of a person talking and ASMR sounds in general annoy me.

I like male stuff.. there's one where you're a kidnapped sho and he whispers to you the whole time.
