Associated with pension transfer sex work, webcamming doesn’t possess the best reputation. It’s often seen as exploitation or even a last-resort hustle to debt, but Reed Amber, 26, explains how webcam models are merely your average self-employed freelancers sticking with the same volume of agency and independence as anyone else.
Model, producer and co-creator of YouTube channel ComeCurious, Reed is actually the physical embodiment of sex positivity, which she defines as “trying to produce people seem like what they’re doing and just what they’re into isn’t wrong, it’s normal and it’s absolutely fine.” She’s a massive advocate for removing stigma and taboos around sex, and now we involved with her for more information on webcamming, a line of sex work that is certainly seldom brought up.
So why do you imagine some men, and probably women also, prefer it to porn?
“There’s a great deal free porn that I feel webcamming is much more of a personal one-on-one. You are able to search online in order to find any ol’ stuff, but webcamming is a bit more personal; it’s tailored exactly from what you need along with what you’re looking for. You’re not sharing it with 100 thousand other folks. This is the show. Most of the time you increase your relationship, I talk with you as being a friend i respect you being a person. ‘How has your mood been, what have you get from the shops, what exactly are you cooking for dinner…’ it’s as an online relationship”
…So it’s kind of like the ‘girlfriend experience’?
“Yes, it’s simular to the girlfriend experience. But that also depends on what the webcam model is like and in addition what are the person paying is like because everybody wants something different.”
Have you had say no to a request?
“I’m one of the cam girls who hardly ever refuse. I’ve always aspired to try something totally new, but that’s not because I felt like I had to. It’s just personally what I wish to accomplish. I must tick stuff off my list, I would like to try everything once especially when you are looking for sex positivity. Even though it’s something I’m not really into, I’d still give it a go. If I didn’t want it, I’d resemble ‘sorry, I’m certainly not into that.’ But there’s many people that might avoid a lot of stuff.”
Are there any really common requests that you will get?
“It depends upon the profile which you create because if you produce a profile, you’re posting a little bio about yourself, and look over could possibly be seen as an bit more ‘out there’. I’m open to anything, like roleplay, so a lot of the time I buy roleplay requests, more simply because I have discovered them fun regardless of how unusual or bizarre they’re. What excites me are uncommon and weird requests that you just wouldn’t really find. Life’s too boring otherwise”
How do people react when you inform them everything you do?
“I have a mixture of emotions. Mostly people react positively because of the way I take a look at it. It’s so different if you’re really shy and timid and quiet about this. It immediately sends out this concept of ‘oh they’re not completely happy with it.’
Basically you can become your sex-positive self on your full potential…
“Exactly! That’s where I got my first taste of sex positivity. Under-going my relationships and going to university I used to be like ‘woah, nobody thinks generate an income do, I must be weird’. Being a webcam model, I realised most people are into something else entirely, they merely think that they can’t discuss it.”
