Will the future of entertainment affect the porn industry?

Today we bring you the future of entertainment and how it can affect the porn industry in the coming years.

Before the Internet, many children and young people would get a VHS tape and strategically meet “in secret” to watch XXX videos. That moment lacked intimacy and spontaneity, but not knowing anything else or other ways, it was the only option. In the late 1990s, the internet exploded and with it, access to pornography increased.

Beyond the enormous work that remains to be done to resolve the terrible consequences that the massification of porn has brought in terms of sexual exploitation and abuse, talking about the relationship between the future and the sexual industry implies pointing out how this openness has transformed habits.

The sexuality of each generation

Starting with the “millennials”, born between 1980 and 1995, access to pornography happens more easily, much more frequently, and from an earlier age, and this trend continues to increase. It should not surprise us that in the coming decades, we will witness a new transformation of pornography caused, this time, by the massification of virtual reality.

To say the least, between 2022 and 2027 the growth in the adoption of virtual and augmented reality technology is expected to be 2,800% and the virtual reality pornography market is estimated to increase from 6 million to billion dollars in the same period.

The possibility of superimposing VR

As we have already talked about, there is the possibility of “superimposing” a virtual layer on our material reality, thus creating a mixed reality in which we are able to control, for example, what we want to see. So what will happen when virtual reality glasses become as small as glasses, or even contact lenses that we can wear all the time? And how would this translate into the field of sex?

The answer can be as broad as each person's tastes and imagination. Because sex in mixed reality could transform a sexual encounter between two individuals into thousands of immersive fantasies with a lot of different possible characters, it could even happen that the two people involved decide to experience different fantasies. As attractive as it may sound, the truth is that this scenario shows a propensity for sex to be more about entertainment and less about connecting with another person.

Will sex toys prevent real sex?

Although it may seem exaggerated, there is already a percentage of the young population that is losing interest in having real sex compared to other possibilities of experimentation. In that scenario, what are the options they will encounter?

To begin with, you have to think about how sex toys are going to evolve, one of the elements of this sex industry that has been developing the most and which, in addition, is becoming a resource widely used by both women and men. Currently, there is a wide variety that allows not only the use of them alone or as a couple but also the idea of overcoming physical distance through toys that can be controlled remotely through applications.

There has even been experimentation with the possibility of replicating stimulation in men and women through two toys, a vibrator and a type of box, which respond when their counterpart is touched; That is, in the box, there are the mechanisms to activate the vibrator and when you touch it, it is the internal part of the box that lights up to emulate male sensations during penetration.

Sex robots

They are already a reality and are equipped with an Artificial Intelligence system, capable of starting a conversation like the one that YouTuber Cyrus North shows on his channel which sparked an interesting reflection about whether we can talk about consent when it comes to artificial intelligence. As these new technologies continue to develop, this and other doubts related to the deep gender bias involved in the creation of these robots arise and also add to the questions about the ethical limits that are put into play when creating these robots.
