ASK ME ABOUT VISITING PROSTITUTES IN CHINA AND FEELING NO SHAME. MY FRIEND IS SERIOUSLY THE (PATHETIC) YODA OF PAYING WOMEN TO TOUCH HIS (AND MY) DICK. THEY WOULDN'T DO IT OTHERWISE.
When I was little I used to get squirmy and giggly during haircuts. The sounds messed with me on a nervous level. My dad would be furious because I'm sitting there beet red laughing. I always assumed most people felt this. I don't know that it's the same thing that ASMR vids are claiming to do though. I don't get it anymore from haircuts but I'm pretty sound sensitive.

Most of these ASMR videos I've seen seem more like fetish videos and I'd liken that to me liking the way the girls in japanese pornos sound.

it's definitely being fetishized pretty heavily, which is interesting -- but i've had these reactions all my life and assumed everyone had something like this, which apparently isn't true (or they haven't found their triggers yet) and i always enjoyed just letting it happen all by itself, a happy surprise -- since people started talking about it, i still never attempted to go out of my way to trigger myself, but it's cool that it's something nobody really talked about until the internet brought a ton of people together and they kinda stumbled their way into it (i certainly never mentioned it to anybody, it just didn't seem unusual enough to bring up)

Ah cripes, this is what all of these feel like for me! It's like I have a reverse reaction to this poo poo from what everyone else is describing, and it's like that reaction to nails on a chalkboard, where I feel my whole spine seemingly go on edge. It's not like I have Misophonia or anything, but this sort of thing is clearly having the opposite effect than desired on me. All the things I've clicked on from goons, all the depraved, awful, bizarre, faith-draining things, and these are probably the most disturbing.

i usually get these pretty good feeling tingles down my spine and on my head when someone is showing me how to do something in a relaxed way. people whispering or whatever doesn't do it for me.

nothing sexual about it, my dick doesn't even twitch. been like that ever since I was a kid doing arts and crafts in school. happens randomly, don't ever really feel like trying to trigger it on purpose with youtube on anything.

sorry you are all missing out

ASMR is a vestigial grooming response.

It's what you would have been feeling hundreds of thousands of years ago when one of your fellow primates was grooming you. It feels good because it was nature's way of getting you to sit still for long periods of time while someone else pulled all the lice and ticks and twigs and crap out of your fur.

When humans lost their fur, the grooming response atrophied, to the point where most people don't have it at all, and those who do are having it triggered accidentally by things which are somewhat like grooming. Haircuts, someone close to them speaking in a quiet voice, small repetitive movements, etc.

Everyone dissing ASMR is going to look real loving stupid once the research gets done and it turns out to be scientifically legit. I reserve the right to relentlessly mock the everloving poo poo out of you when that time comes.
