You may not have the “standard” type of sex toys like vibrators, butt plugs, or dildos, but did you know that you can use your webcam as a type of a sex toy? Yes, you can. Technically, anything that you and your partner want to use that arouses the two of you could technically be called a “sex toy” and that’s exactly how the webcam can qualify.
After all, webcams offer a whole lot of options that could lead to hot, steamy sex between you and your partner. A webcam that’s not built into a computer tends to offer the most flexibility (such as the ones that clip to the top of a monitor), but you can technically use any type of webcam that you have available. In fact, if you like these ideas, you could possibly use anything that has a camera at all – which includes many MP3 players, tablets, cell phones, and more.
Webcams don’t have to just be for long-distance relationships. While they certainly work well for that, you might find a sexual spark using it while you two are close together. In fact, you may want to try being in separate rooms of the same house. While it might seem a bit silly, many people find using a camera and seeing their partner on camera to provide a charged, erotic environment. While on webcam, you both can type to chat with one another or leave it purely to the acts that are happening on the webcam. You both can play this way until you’re done, or you can purely use it as a unique form of foreplay until you can’t take it anymore and end up in the same room together.
If you and your partner aren’t online at the same time, you can always use your webcam to make a short/long video as well. Most webcams have some sort of “record” function (or you can download a program off the internet) that will allow you to make a teasing video for your partner. You might want to try asking your partner what they’d want to watch, or you can always have fun surprising them with something. However, try to make sure your timing is good. While you can never guarantee that something is going to go over well, trying to send an erotic video to their work e-mail account without any mention of it being erotic might lead to them getting fired. So either try to warn them in advance or make sure to send it to an account that they won’t be opening while out in public.
Webcams also can usually take pictures. While this might not be so helpful if you have other devices that easily take photos, if you want to easily and quickly be able to e-mail a photo to your partner, a webcam makes it super simple since it’s already saved to the computer (versus saved to a phone).
A couple things to remember: you don’t have to broadcast this session to the whole internet. Services like Skype would allow you to have a “private” video conversation with your partner. Yahoo! Messenger also allows for webcam sessions between two people. Do, however, be aware that, like everything on the internet, your privacy is not 100% guaranteed when making hot sex on webcam. If that’s a concern, possibly consider cropping out your face with the angle of the camera or wearing a sexy face mask. The likelihood of someone actually “sneaking” into your private webcam session is extremely minimal, but it’s still worth being aware of.
If you haven’t had the time to afford a sex toy or just want to find ways to spice up your sex life by using things you already own, try using your perfect cam as the best way to go about it. After all, look at how many sex cam sites exist. There must be something erotic and enjoyable about a “live” show with someone, and there’s no reason you shouldn’t taken advantage of that with your personal sex life as well!
