rerun119 If I'm being as real as possible, being 100, I think there is a very real strain of consumers, perhaps 20-25% of VR porn consumers, who want an experience that mimics real intimacy to turn them on. This could possibly be combined with sexual content but also possibly just be a virtual experience of non-judgmental acceptance and affection (which could easily be misconstrued as love.) From what you've posted, you sound a lot like me and I think we are in agreement!
There are a lot of people out there who probably believe they have a "step"family kink because the only kind of emotional intimacy they have ever known has been with a family member. The idea of being emotionally intimate with a stranger is so foreign to their personal experience that it impedes physical arousal in other scenarios. Perhaps this is an opportunity for the rise of a more gentle and sensual niche in VR porn that can be explored in the future to help certain lonely people realize their worth and find soulmates. There are sensual/GFE genres along those lines that could meet this need.
But honestly, at most, I hope/expect this will lead to a better brand of step-porn. And if it is hot VR POV-Creampie content, I will be satisfied. To which I say yippie-kai-yay! Bring on the tantalizing smut and I will say no more.
