The internet is full of sexy stories and erotic content, but what happens when you strip back the visuals? Most can’t imagine pornography without the images, but there’s an excellent argument for audio porn, and it’s one of the fastest-growing erotica subcultures right now.
But what is audio porn? And why is this sex-positive media quickly gaining popularity? We’re covering this upcoming trend to help you stay informed, and maybe you’ll find a new turn-on. You can’t knock it until you try it.
Headphones at the ready? Let’s get started.
Audio porn, also known as audio erotica, is a form of sexual audio content. Think of typical porn, but for your ears, not your eyes. Audio erotica is usually very explicit and involves telling a saucy story, POV audio, or simply sexual moaning or intimate sound effects.
Audio erotica is becoming increasingly popular, but why are fans switching off the visuals?
Compared to typical online pornography, audio erotica might seem basic. But it’s the stripped-back nature of the content that viewers enjoy. As you can’t see the voice actors, you have a blank canvas to imagine anyone and any setting. You’re in control here. This arguably makes it more intimate, which is a major turn-on for some people.
Not only does audio erotica offer a more intimate experience, but it also allows you to play with your senses. When one sense is missing, your brain focuses on the others, making them more powerful and stimulating. This means the audio is more impactful on its own than it would be with video content, resulting in increased arousal and new sexual feelings.
There’s a variety of reasons people are choosing audio erotica over traditional pornography. From accessibility to its stress-relieving properties, this adult content is like no other.
Check out the benefits below to see if audio erotica could be in your sexual future:
So, audio erotica comes with a lot of benefits. But is it better than visual video-based pornography? Well, it depends on your tastes. However, here’s how the two types of content measure up.
Audio pornography uses sexual dialogue and sound to create a vivid and immersive sexual experience. It also offers a feeling of privacy for those who want to fantasise without intense visual content. Plus, you can opt for different levels of explicitness. If you want to hear moaning and sexual sounds, you’ve got it. But you can also opt for less graphic content if you aren’t comfortable with extremely sexual scenarios.
Video pornography caters to those who want instant gratification and visual satisfaction. With this medium, you don’t have to spend time imagining. You have realism and visual pleasure from the start. This is perfect for anyone who wants a more explicit experience or gets aroused by sights rather than sounds.
Everyone’s different. The only way to know what works best for you is to get out there and explore.
Though audio erotica is attracting more attention than ever, it’s still not easy to find. But we’re here to help. Here are some of the main places you can find some sexy audio.
Your first option for audio erotica is to explore the world of audiobooks. This is a good option if you want a full-length story rather than a short and explicit snippet.
NSFW books come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from romantic novels with steamy love scenes to straight-to-the-point sex scenes. Streaming services and e-book providers (such as Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Kindle Unlimited) often have saucy stories hidden amongst the vanilla books.
If you want to skip the searching, you can head straight to dedicated audio erotica apps and websites. That’s right. There are apps and websites dedicated to this type of content. Perfect.
Popular audio erotica apps and websites include:
While professional apps, audiobooks, and websites offer high-quality audio content, homemade audio porn is also worth checking out. Plenty of forums are dedicated to amateur erotic audio content, and these tend to be better if you want a short and explicit story. One of the most popular places to submit and enjoy saucy audio is r/GoneWildAudio on Reddit.
Unsurprisingly, audio porn has also popped up on social media. From TikTok to Twitter, you can find audio snippets that will get you hot under the collar.
These audios tend to be more discreet to dodge the platforms’ terms of service, so these aren’t ideal if you want long-form content. For example, on TikTok, there’s a “whimper audios” trend where male creators do push-ups with suggestive sound effects.
Whether you’re trying to spruce up your solo play or looking for a new turn-on, audio erotica could be the trend for you. Lower the lights, get comfortable, and make sure your headphones are plugged in. Now, enjoy.
