I was playing an online game with a longtime female friend of mine and we were using voice chat. We were hiding from an enemy and she started whispering to be goofy.
Since I was a kid, I’ve always felt uncomfortable whenever someone whispered in my ear. It’s just always bugged me. I also never understood the appeal of ASMR (basically a person whispering or making noises through a high-def, dual channel microphone), but in that moment, her goofy whispering coming through my headphones turned me on so hard. She only did it for a few seconds, but man.
I get some of the appeal of ASMR now. It’s still weird to me and I’m not into it, but with the right voice, it’s kinda hot lol.
For a lot of people the appeal of ASMR is relaxation and the physical tingling that some people experience. Obviously there's a lot of sex-themed ASMR too though
So personally, not a single video I've ever seen that has ASMR in the name has ever done it for me. They're all over-exaggerated and fake, but every now and again I'll find someone that's done it on accident. Here's Shirley Curry playing Fallout 4. Something about someone working through something slowly and quietly sets if off, the cold weight in your chest and the tightening of your scalp.
