OK someone explain to me what the purpose of asmr is.
Why do so many chuubas do it and does it actually work for you guys?
It just feels weird when i listen to it.

It feels more intimate. I have a specific taste for ASMR though. I don't get any ASMR vibes/tingles at all nor do I care about the "ear licking" ASMR. I like spoken lines and heart beat.

I actually can sense the peculiar but pleasing feeling of ASMR, but it's not a sex or emotional thing in the fucking slightest, it's just sensing something that is delicate and fleeting but just feels really good and relaxing and puts you into a trance.

Some peoples' voices can do it yeah but it really doesn't matter if it's a guy or girl's and it doesn't matter what they're actually saying at all. It's just a tone of sound doing it.

As for vtuber asmr it just feels like exaggerrated / level adjusted funky audio settings as they usually can't actually hit the sensation for me anyway, and even then, it's kind of exhausting to focus on it for more than like.. 10-20 minutes? You have to basically hold still to feel it - even fucking blinking really diminishes it or just breaks the feeling instantly. I don't wanna hear a chuuba do it for like an hour.

People want to hear a girl sweettalk them and it's just "ASMR" supposedly as an excuse really, it's a cover for GFE.

I've only ever experienced ASMR from videos that weren't meant to be ASMR. Basically low quality tutorials, unboxing vids, people with strong accents speaking in a calming voice about something they know a lot about, lots of white noise, etc.

No, you're just born like that. I knew what it was long long before it actually had a name and thought it was some peculiar quirk with just-me.

Its a shame because back 4-5 years ago you have a wider variety of channels under the ASMR umbrella who would do different things. Sadly all but the most popular were crowed out by e-thots making blowjob noises and those that remain are shells of their former selves.
Sometimes I wonder how different things would have been if Indigo Stars faction were the ones pushed out of the community instead of the group that didn't want to do NSFW related stuff.

I might be a man of extremes but I loathe the "soft-NSFW" type of content most ASMR girls do nowadays. If you want niggas to get off to your voice, then act out whole scenarios like they do in Japan. Either do something tame like "Sci-Fi Hotel Concierge explains all the neat bullshit" or go full hog with "Step-sister spies on you in the shower so you decide to throat fuck her". Just licking ears and shit is so lame

>> No.14006397

ASMR for chill and tingles and voice works for CUUUUUUUUUUMING and tingles.
And probably some tingle I feel is a pleasant feeling and shivering in the back of your neck vertebrae like when you're done urinating. It's a great feeling.

>> No.14006429

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_grooming
ASMR tingles are the vestige of the primate social grooming instinct. Not all humans experience it, because our social grooming instinct is much weaker than primates. ASMR tingles are a pleasant rippling or tingling sensation across that goes in waves across your neck and scalp, and the sensation encourages you to be calm and stay still (in primates, the staying still bit ensures they don't interrupt the grooming).
Anything that could be related to social grooming can be a trigger, whether it's the literal brushing sound, the experience of being closely inspected, the implication of literally grooming you by cleaning out your ears, seeing someone perform a task methodically and quietly, etc etc.
Content that induces ASMR may serve multiple purposes; the format lends itself to providing intimacy and to providing sexual arousal, so those are common in ASMR and ASMR-adjacent content.

For people who don't experience the tingles, it can be easy to see the other close-by motivations of intimacy / sexual stimulation, and think that's all ASMR is about. As a counterpoint I like to present the original ASMR video, where awareness of this phenomenon first began to coalesce into the beginnings of the ASMR community:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrKbOF3vHo8
It's a middle-aged male doctor giving a brief medical exam to a middle-aged former hockey player, absolutely nothing about it is sexual or intimate in any way. But remember the triggers I listed before, this hits lots of them: methodical task, experience of close examination, and even some brushing sounds from fabric against the mic. It has 25 million views now, but it only had 10,000 views when I first stumbled across it and got hooked on the tingles, and saw someone saying "Is anyone else getting scalp tingles from this?" in the comments.

Hope this helps, OP

ASMR makes me want to slam the chubas head into the pavement. Not in an aroused "you gonna get raped now boi" way. It's more like "this insufferable noise grates on every last one of my nerves and I will do anything to make it stop."

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind listening to pleasant voices like Okayu's. It's just the ASMR style of deliberately making annoying obnoxious noises for an extended period of time that makes me cringe in absolute revulsion.

If I see even a single mention of ASMR anywhere in the vicinity of a chuba, I stay as far away as I possibly can for the sake of my sanity.

But in English I usually can't stand all the whispering, it just sounds awkward like someone not committing to doing actual role play.

I've had trouble falling asleep for a few years. In a fit of desperation I bought a pair of really expensive headphones and gave ASMR a try. It took a while to find the correct thing for myself but these days ASMR actually reliably puts me to sleep.
