The Truth About Camgirls

the truth about camgirls thumbnail

You’ve heard about camgirling. I know you have. You might have even visited camgirl sites like Chaturbate.com, Livejasmin.com or Myfreecams.com.

Maybe you’re a big spender who’s used thousands of dollars to purchase “tokens” to send to beautiful women you’ve never met. Maybe (like so many men) you’ve become romantically attached to a camgirl. Or perhaps, if you’re really unlucky, you’ve become a camgirl addict.

On the other hand, you might be a camgirl yourself. Maybe you’ve spent hundreds of hours in your bedroom dancing in front of a webcam to thousands of men from across the world.

Whoever you are, I’m about to give you all the dirty details about the camgirl industry and give you a clear idea on what this industry actually is.

I’m about to explain how camsites are making millions of dollars by monetising romantic interaction. How female youth and beauty is now a product that can be packaged up and sold for a healthy profit on a scale never seen before in human history.

And finally, how camgirling is an industry that is going to become more and more prevalent as we move into the future and eventually integrate with virtual reality.

This is the truth about camgirls.

Camgirling – The Digital Strip Club

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-digital-strip-club

From popular camgirl site Chatburbate.com

There are two kinds of camgirl websites.

In the first kind, men will pay camgirl models a fixed fee to have a private session with them. $2 per minute. Just like the sexchat hotlines of the past.

The second kind is what you might call the “stripclub model”. On this kind of camgirl site, men will buy “tokens” from the website and then spend these tokens on their favourite model.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-purchase-token

Sidenote: Look at the misleading pricing structure here. As the buyer spends their tokens, they will instinctively calculate that 1 token = 10¢,10 tokens = $1. and 1000 tokens = $100. When in fact 1000 tokens = $109. This pricing will continually mislead buyers into feeling like they’re spending less than they actually are.

This second kind of camgirl site is a digital stripclub. Just imagine a girl dancing on the pole in the centre of the room with men throwing dollar bills at her. This type of camgirl site is essentially exactly the same – only the crowds are much, much larger.

Girls often have 1000+ viewers and sometimes even 10,000+ viewers. Just imagine a tennis court filled with spectators. Yeah, that’s how many people are watching camgirls.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-single-girls

Yes that’s 11418 people watching a single girl. Just imagine all of these people watching in a real audience.

That’s right. The virtual stripclub now exists. (One that will eventually intergrate with Virtual Reality. More on that later.)

Men are able to sit behind their laptop from anywhere in the world and throw in little bits of money to the girl.

Women will have their prices displayed on screen for various sexual performances and men will spend tokens to watch them perform. The prices will usually look something like this:

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-notice

The numbers you see here is the number of tokens needed. Here you can see getting the girl’s Whatsapp number costs 1111 tokens ($122 USD). “Lush control” refers to the Lovesense Lush 2 Remote Controlled Vibrator. This costs 1500 tokens ($164 USD). As for the “Ahegao face”…well I’ll let you Google that one for yourself.

Men can watch the girls for free. They don’t even have to make an account. The majority of men are just lurking, but a small few will pay tokens and get the girls to perform. And usually there is one or two big spenders (“whales”) in the room funding the entire thing.

Of course, men can also pay big money to get the girl into a 1 v 1 private cam session if they’re willing to do so.

A more recent trend is for camgirls to wear remote controlled vibrators that are synced up with the token system. The more tokens, the longer and stronger the vibration.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-pleasure-with-tips

Camgirls will pretend they’re getting intense pleasure from these vibrations when in fact the vibrator rarely turns them on at all and their reaction usually entirely fake. (According to real camgirls).

Some camgirls even provide their Whatsapp/Line numbers (at a high price of course) to give the men the chance to message them personally.

Women will also make extra money on the side by selling videos and photos on websites like onlyfans.com, clips4sale.com and manyvids.com.

So that’s the basics of camgirling. But I’m sure you still have many questions: How much do camgirls make? Why do the camgirls do it? And why the hell are so many men paying them in the first place?

Bare with me, we’re getting there.

I’ll split next part of the article into two sections: 1. The Women 2. The Men.

The Women

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-girls

All of these girls on webcam. Getting naked, dancing, wearing sexy outfits and putting objects inside themselves. Why do they do it? The reason is simple: Cam girls can make incredible amounts of money.

General estimates for how much a camgirl earns vary. Some say $20-40 p/h, others say $65-100 p/h.

I decided to do my own experiment. For strictly research purposes *cough* I picked a camgirl at random and watched for a total of 30 minutes. I recorded all of the tokens that she received during this time. This is the result:

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-token-recieved

Perhaps this was a particularly good 30 minutes. Perhaps this girl usually makes half this amount.

The point is – for a girl in their early 20’s no other job could possibly compare.

If you’re an attractive 20 year old girl you now have the choice of earning $8 an hour as a waitress or earn close to $100 an hour as a camgirl.

Not only that, but camgirls also sell video clips and photos on websites like Onlyfans.com or Clips4sale.com for even more money on the side.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-paypal

The main goal of a camgirl is to hook a “whale”. A big spender who will happily spend thousands of dollars on a particular girl. (The term “whale” was originally used for big spenders in casinos)

Of course, the real money lies in hooking a “whale”, meaning a man who’s willing to spend big on a particular girl.

This is where the majority of a successful camgirl’s profits will come from.

When a whale enters the chat and begins to tip big, the camgirl will start fawning over him and stroking his ego.

A lot of camgirls will use masculine, ego stroking language with their high-tippers, like calling them “hero”, “champion” or “winner” or asking questions like “who is going to save my night?”.

“You see, you’re not just trying to get a guy to pay you – you’re trying to get a guy to pay you in front of a bunch of other guys. This is a super key. A man wants to feel attention from an attractive women on him, and this is made even more satisfying when it’s to the exclusion to those around him. He is showing off his power by buying your happiness” – Cam Girl Aella explains in an interview.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-cam-session

This camgirl has set up a leaderboard so that the men can compete with each other to be #1. The biggest “whale” here is openforfun83 who has spent 27833 tokens on this particular girl ($3058 USD).

In our capitalistic society, everything has a monetary value. Female beauty has always carried inherent value, but now that value has been effectively monetised with the use of technology.

In the past, women could only sell their beauty in strip clubs, as escorts or as prostitutes. Because these methods required being a physical location, the number of men they could earn money from was limited.

Now women can sell their female beauty on the digital stripclub (camsites) to thousands of men from all around the world. Because they no longer need a physical space, they can sell their female beauty to an unlimited number of men.

Not only that, but on camsites women don’t need to be afraid of any potential physical harm that men may inflict on them. Female beauty can now be sold without risk of being harmed. The issue of safety, which was previously a major deterrent for women getting into sex work, is no longer a problem.

On top of all that, they’re selling their product to the perfect customers – horny men. You couldn’t ask for customers in a better “buying mindset” than men who have given in to their sexual urges. Men don’t make good decisions with money when they’re horny.

Now don’t get me wrong, it’s now all sunshines and rainbows. Some camgirls are struggling to pay rent and are desperate for money. Camgirls deal with abusive messages, scams, and have to put their naked self on the internet where it can be shared on porn sites. (And of course, the downsides are all the mainstream media focuses on).

And some women report having mental health issues after dealing with particularly toxic and creepy behaviour from men.

Certainly, becoming a successful camgirl takes hard work, determination and the ability to put up with toxic behaviour.

But for any girl willing to put in the effort and accept the downsides, camgirling makes perfect sense. In what other job could a 20-something year old girl make $50+ per hour? And it’s not like conventional jobs don’t come with their own downsides.

When it comes down to it, what’s the smart move for a young girl? Get a waitress job and earn $8 and hour? Or do camgirling for a few years and set themselves up for the rest of their life?

We live in a society now where becoming a camgirl is often the most logical, rational choice for a young woman.

In 2020, becoming a camgirl could almost be seen as a smart, sensible and responsible financial decision.

So the internet now allows women to sell their female beauty to men all around the world, and make big bucks while doing it.

But the question remains – why the hell are men willing to spend so much money on women they’ll never even meet?

It’s time to talk about the men.

The Men

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-the-men

It might seem strange that men would be willing to spend money for a camgirl when porn is freely available throughout the internet. But camgirls offer something that porn never can: Connection.

The girl responds to you. She responds to your requests. She calls you by your name. You’re not staring in from the outside like in porn, you’re directly involved in the action.

Of course, the woman doesn’t care about the customer’s personally, only the money in their wallet. But that doesn’t mean that men don’t feel a real connection with the camgirl.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-ton-of-money

Men get hooked on camsites not because of the naked women, but because of the sense of connection with them.

Many men become regulars with a particular camgirl. They begin to feel as if they know the camgirl on a personal level. And some men even report falling in love with them.

When a man becomes obsessed with a camgirl, he becomes a “whale”, and the camgirl will do her best to extract as much money out of him as possible.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-early-last-week

After exchanging Snapchat/Whatsapp, the camgirl will message men during any time of day to encourage (manipulate) them into coming back into their chatroom and spending more money.

Female attention has now been effectively monetised. Lonely men will pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars to simply receive attention from a pretty woman.

While you might be imagining dirty old men behind their computer screens paying for these cam girls, this isn’t the only demographic paying for female attention on camsites. A large proportion of the customer base are young men.

Young men who have grown up inside a digitised world. They’ve grown up watching porn, flicking through girls on Tinder, following attractive girls on Instagram and, continuing a natural progression, paying for female attention on camsites.

Many of these men have never had a relationship with a real woman. Their entire experience of sex and dating so far in their lives has been digital. So it makes perfect sense that they would replace their desire for a real girlfriend by paying a camgirl to pretend to like them back.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-cam-girl-addiction

Another “Whale” that Camgirls are striving to find.

Camgirl addiction is real. Since Camsites are a dopamine fuelled environment linked to sex and human connection, this is no surprise at all.

Men get dopamine hits seeing the girl naked. Then they get further dopamine hits when seeing the girl respond to them personally. The more tokens they spend, the more dopamine hits they can receive.

(If you’re a camgirl addict, this might be helpful for you)

Camsites are selling a highly addictive product.

When Camgirls talk about finding a “whale” to make money from, what they’re often talking about is finding an addict to exploit.

Just like casinos – the majority of the profit is made by exploiting addictive behaviour.

(The term “whale” is also used with microtransations in video games. Gaming companies make the majority of their money through a small minority of addicts who make in-game purchases).

Not all men who spend big are addicts. Some incredibly wealthy men use Camgirls as a form of light entertainment and are perfectly happy to throw down $1000 for a bit of fun.

These rich big-spenders often enter a chatroom, leave an enormous tip and then immediately leave. For them, it’s a power trip. They enjoy feeling as though they’ve “won” the girl and dominated all of the other men in the chatroom.

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-some-whales-arent-addicts

Some “whales” aren’t addicts. They’re rich men who spend money on camgirls to enjoy the power trip.

Do Camguys exist? Yes. But to almost entirely a gay audience. Straight women just aren’t interested in watching Camguys.

So this is the strange new world of Camgirling. Strange though it may seem, you best get used to it. Because this industry isn’t going anywhere. In fact, as we move ahead into the future, the Camgirl industry is only going to grow.

The Future Of The Camgirl Industry

THE-TRUTH-ABOUT-CAMGIRLS-future-of-the-camgirl-industry

Meet Projekt Melody, the anime camgirl you can find on Chaturbate.com. She dances, she teases and she talks. For a time, she was doing far better than human camgirls.

Men liked what they saw and sent tokens to her just like any other girl. While this might seem like absolute madness, there is a real woman controlling this 3D anime girl and talking to the audience. So the feeling of connection is still possible.

Computer generated camgirls will become more common in the future.

But this is only the tip of the iceberg.

The camgirl industry is going be massively effected by future technology – including:

Virtual Reality – Within the next few decades, you’ll be able to interact with your camgirl in an immersive 3D environment. You’ll be able to make eye-contact as she strip teases in front of you.

Remote Sex Technology – We’ve already seen the introduction of remote controlled vibrators that go off when tokens are sent to the model. Remote control technology will become even more advanced and will be integrated into the camgirl industry.

Deepfake Camgirls – Deepfakes allow you to realistically put somebody else’s face on your own. In the future, camgirls will use deepfakes to either enhance their natural beauty, or replace their own face with a different one entirely. The deepfake tracks the movement of the lips, eyes and head. So the deepfake camgirl will be able to move and talk naturally with using somebody else’s face. In fact, realistic deepfakes have the potential to destroy the camgirl industry.

Sex technology is only going to get stranger and more intoxicating. For the addicts reading this, you may want to consider kicking this addiction now before the technology becomes any more powerful.

The sale of female attention on the internet isn’t ever going away because it’s built into our biology. Whether it’s camgirls or some other platform in the future, business will try to manipulate men’s natural desire for female sex and companionship for big profits.

My advice: Don’t waste your time on camsites. Stop chasing the digital shadows of women and focus on having relationship with a real one.

Never digitise human urges.
