The Top Ten Reasons Why Cybersex is Good for You

Yes, you, red-blooded, non-perverted American citizen. Cybersex wants you.

Bonnie Ruberg



When I tell people I write about cybersex, I get a lot of curious reactions. I�ve grown used to, for example, the �Oh my God, you�re secretly a pervert� grimace: a sour, prudish twisting of the mouth. I�m also well-acquainted with the �You actually have sex on the internet?!� look of shock and concern�raised eyebrows, dropped jaw. And then there�s the most curious reaction of all: the understanding, almost sympathetic nod, which says, �It must be tough, but good for you. After all, somebody has got to uncover that den of online perversion.�

Rarely do people�even sex positive people�respond cybersex positively. Why is that? When so many consenting adults are having sex online, why do we still think of it as �wrong�? Sure, we can blame media that feeds us anti-cybersex sensationalism (To Catch a Predator, with its line-up of internet prowling pedophiles, come to mind). But the truth is we love sex, and we definitely love technology. So why can�t we love the two together?



I was shocked to receive a recent email from a Click Me reader that asked, �Are there any benefits to cybersex?� Like, seriously? Maybe I haven�t been making myself clear: of course there are benefits to cybersex! Cybersex, like real-life sex, can be a wonderful thing�full of pleasure, skill, and sexual self-expression. Here are the top ten reasons you�yes, you, red-blooded, non-perverted American citizen�should be out doing it right now.



1. Safety: Despite the sensationalist buzz around internet predators, cybersex is actually a lot safer than sex in real life. Don�t give out personal information to strangers, of course, and you�ll find the only thing you have worry about is what turns you on�not STD�s, not unwanted pregnancy, not even how to find a babysitter. As one single mom put it, �Why endanger my kids by bringing home sexual partners if I can tuck them into bed and have fun online in the next room?�



2. Convenient sex for singles: Cybersex doesn�t require an empty house, a hotel room, or even a bed. More importantly, it doesn�t require the lengthy tactics of face-to-face seduction. Whether you�re looking for a quick romp before you head off to work�hard to come by if you live alone�or an end-of-the-night, on-demand orgasm, the internet and its wealth of cybersex enthusiasts is always waiting and ready.



3. Convenient sex for couples: He lives in California. She�s spending three weeks visiting family in the Philippines. How will this couple handle their time apart? By having regular webcam sex, of course! Being long-distance doesn�t mean you have to be sexually frustrated. In fact, it can be a great time to explore sexy new sides to a relationship�with the help of a little technology.



4. Trying new kinks: Because cybersex isn�t �real,� it gives people a chance to experiment with sex acts and fetishes they haven�t, wouldn�t, or couldn�t in real life. Think you have a thing for stockings? Want to practice switching genders? Does the idea of being a giant whale really turn you on, but you can�t figure out the logistics? Internet sex communities are often accepting and almost always anonymous. Who�s going to judge you?



5. Meeting new people: Having cybersex with someone you�ve just met may seem strange, but it can actually lead to lasting online friendships. Hook up with a hottie in a virtual world and you may find yourself chatting about indie rock and ice cream preferences for hours after the sex is over. There�s also the appeal of the virtual one-night stand: a new lover every night, from the comfort of a desk chair.



6. Exercising your creative muscle: Cybersex is an art. How often do you get to write like an erotic novelist and dream up new ways to describe that tired, old �throbbing member�? Alternately, take pride in your digital-camera skills. You�re a real pornography photographer when you snap those naked pictures and post them online. Own up!



7. Making money: Sure, there are stigmas around using your body for cash. But combine the safety, creativity, and convenience of cybersex, and you�ve got a great recipe for online sex work. From escorting in Second Life to performing on webcams, the possibilities abound for internet users who feel comfortable putting themselves out there online�and earning something back in exchange.



8. Gaining confidence: Don�t think you�re a sexy person? You�re wrong. Someone out there on the world wide web shares your sexual interests�and thinks you�re hot. Start chatting; buy yourself a webcam. With enough cyberers wrapped around your sexy, virtual finger, you might just look in the real-life mirror a whole new way.



9. Practicing for �the real thing�: Talking dirty in real-life bed can be hard�not because it�s actually difficult, but because it comes with a lot of pressure. �What if I sound stupid? What if he doesn�t think it�s sexy?� Enter text-based cybersex. Thanks to the anonymity of the internet, it�s easy to get feedback on dirty talk�and to get used to hearing it coming out of your fingertips, if not your mouth.



10. The sheer pleasure: Cybersex is sexy, and it feels good. So go on, have some already!
