Fetish of the Month January 2021: ASMR
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridan Response. It’s the official name for when people get a weird tingling sensation that begins in the scalp and moves down the back of the neck into the upper spine. Studies into ASMR became mainstream around 2007 and the emergence of these studies let to a large variety of YouTube videos emerging. The purpose of these videos is to create the stimulation of the “tingles” and that sensation can vary from person to person. The tingling sensation on the skin in general is called paresthesia, but most commonly referred to as “the tingles”. Not everyone will experience these “tingles”, you can watch the large variety of video’s to see if you respond. The videos may seem odd, especially if you do not experience the ASMR reaction. ASMR is not something that just appeared in humans, it’s our awareness of it that is driving the phenomenon. Initial studies and names for ASMR included a reference to orgasm, but that reference was removed as many of the persons studied persisted in differentiating the euphoric and relaxing nature from sexual arousal. People who experience ASMR report feeling relaxed and sleepy after being stimulated.
Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response
In my research I have been reading various articles, studies, and opinions on just how much ASMR crosses over into the Sexual fetish arena. There are many who believe the two are “intimately” related shall we say. At Adult Empire we have only recently given ASMR its own category, in fact at the time of this article there are only 10 films related to that category. One of the films featured in this months “What the Fetish” video is called ASMR Fantasy starring Angela White, Alina Lopez, and April O’Neal. As I watched this movie I did not experience any “head tingles” per say but I found this film very erotic. In the first scene Angela plays a sexy Doctor who gives a full body examination and sexual test to her patient (played by Michael Vegas) in front of his wife in the exam room. As “Doctor White” enters the room she immediately starts with various ASMR triggers. Eventually she unbuttons her Doctor jacket to test his already hard cock with some oral stimulation (filled with wet mouth and slurping sounds) then she uses her tongue to inspect his anal cavity. She finishes off her exam by hopping on his cock and getting a sperm sample all over her pussy. In the next scene Alina Lopez does everything in her imagination to trigger some authentic ASMR for April O’Neal. Even if it did not trigger ASMR she performs some of the best pampering I have ever seen. She could practice her bag of tricks on me anytime, it looked like the experience of a lifetime. Not only some great AMSR treatment but some of the hottest lesbian sex I have ever seen on film. This film is produced by Adult Time in 2020 and Directed by Bree Mills, winner of 4 XBIZ awards and one AVN award (2018-2020). It is recommended that you wear headphones for the authentic ASMR experience while watching this, which is the norm for any ASMR video as it heightens the triggers.
I strongly suggest you watch this video, and any of our ASMR category videos to what how it stimulates you. I predict the crossover of ASMR and sexual fetish will not go away as there seems to be many of opinions about how far the triggers go. In my research I came across a great article by submitted by Yael Wolfe to medium.com/sexography. It is titled ASMR Just a Pretense for Freaky Sexual Fetishes and shares this writer’s experiences and opinions which I found very relatable to my own. So get your headphones on and decide for yourself what kind on “tingles” you feel with our growing ASMR fetish category.
