There used to be a GBS thread full of people linking each other to videos of things like women speaking with lisps, or writing with a quill pen, or loudly eating a food, and describing how it made them feel using words like 'tingly' and 'melt' while insisting that it was in absolutely no way sexual at all.

I didn't know we were talking about how the ugly people in this thread make us feel tingly!

It wasn't that bad. At least at the start. I stopped reading after awhile. Everyone wanted to make it into something sexual or a fetish.

Yeah if you think about all these (mostly) women sitting down and doing these role plays for creeps to watch in the name of relaxation it's pretty awkward and creepy.

Like, I find this nerve exam done by a physicians as part of a documentary on TBIs in sports to be relaxing. The quick cadence, the timbre of his voice and so on, there's nothing sexual about it.

They're just buskers, not some exotic new youth tribe. You can see the girl in the red pants is doing a sword swallowing routine, and I suspect at some point someone fits their body through those tennis racquets. They may still be annoying weirdos, but there is some context to the outfits and makeup.

:sigh: Oh yeah, I think I was in that thread for a bit. I do get the weird sensation from certain triggers, but I will fully acknowledge that it is weird and you have to be careful or you'll fall into a creepy fetish hole and never come out. For most people there truly isn't anything sexual about it, it's purely relaxing. Music isn't relaxing to me since I study it, and I can't sleep with the TV on, so on nights when I'm having trouble falling asleep, watching someone, like, demonstrate how to therapeutically massage for lower back pain helps me sleep. Weird! I know. Secret shame. But it only works if the person doing the video is actually a massage therapist with a calm, soothing voice, and not just some random person doing it while whispering and smacking their lips into the microphone. The "roleplay" videos are 100% awkward and gross. I watched a few and it stressed me out. Get out of my face!

To get all :biotruths:, partnered grooming behavior is a very important social activity for higher primates like chimpanzees. So it's possible that lice checks trigger a similar response in humans. Probably massages and haircuts and other such things trigger similar instinctual responses. Of course while your lower primate brain is digging it your higher primate brain is going "GAH BUGS ON MY HEAD" so it's probably not as relaxing if you can think about it.

This is all supposition on my part, I don't have any data to back it up.

I was watching some E3 videos yesterday and something weird appeared in my suggested videos. The title was something like "ASMR roleplay". Maybe I just need more info about this but it was awkward as heck and a little bit creepy. I made a quick google search and it's apparently some sensorial thing some people experience? It's usually a girl whispering super close to the camera, pretending she's a doctor examining you. Maybe It's just ignorance but it was pretty awkward and surreal :stare:

The internet has ruined me because my first thought was "gently caress, someone's fapping to this, I just know it". Can't put a link right now but it's really easy to stumble upon the videos.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9Kpu-x67og

Here's a great NPR story by someone who claims to have ASMR. I don't know how real it is and also think it's creepy as gently caress, but to each his own I guess.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvSEdQ4aaTc
Here's the video mentioned in the story. Certainly qualifies as awkward.

ASMR is an awkward topic and so are most of the videos but I find it more awkward when people who don't experience it really want to turn it into a fetish and sexualize the whole thing.

I also recently found a person on Flickr whose account contains over 500,000 photos of roads, taken in the car while driving. And another weirdo with 11,000 pictures of school buses. I don't think that latter one is a pedo, just pure aspergers.
