I’ll begin the article with this bold statement: VR porn is so immersive that you can almost feel the sensation of real sex just by gazing through the headset for a few seconds. It might just be the pinnacle of our increasingly-visual and sexually-liberated era, and its development is still in the early stages: soon enough VR porn might be capable of such accurate representations of reality that we will turn it into something indispensable from daily life (not that some of us haven’t taken this step already). This marvelous invention truly brings out a fascinating peculiarity human brain: we see something that looks lifelike and realistic, and the rest of our senses get tricked to fall for the illusion.
To put it plainly: we really believe that we are in the same room with a horny supermodel who’s ready and willing to give us sexual satisfaction.
And somehow, this is only the beginning, as both the hardware developers and the porn studios are only starting to discover and experiment with the true potential of the technology. At the current stage, VR porn is somewhat rudimentary, could use some polishing and will definitely get better as time goes by. If all we see right now is a Gordon Freeman-like (from, you know, the Half Life games) POV situation in which someone with the body of a sex god pleasures us while we can’t respond or bring changes to the course of actions, then the future looks really bright and kinky for VR porn consumers worldwide. New additions can always be brought and radical changes can be made at any point within the next few years, and it’s a very exciting time to be alive. From touch controls to more advanced motion tracking through space, we might be looking at a sexual revolution of unprecedented scales and scope.
VR porn is mind-blowingly outworldly and does an unbelievable job at satisfying out sexual cravings, as well as fulfilling some of the deepest and most desirable fantasies we have. But if we agree that the representation is an illusion, and then then we can also reach the point in which VR porn can be labelled as a mind-altering drug.
But if VR porn is such a strong stimulus for our senses, then can we witness the emergence of a new drug that will replace them all?
Let me explain for a minute what I’m trying to say. Drugs, defined throughout this article as mind-altering chemicals and substances that result from either plants or complex pharmaceutical processes, have been used by mankind for thousands of years in order to escape reality, ease pain, or change the state of mind. Some of them have medicinal uses can can be bought legally only via prescription, while others are either completely legal (think of coffee, absinthe, tobacco products, and even cannabis in certain parts of the world) or illegal pretty much everywhere (cocaine, heroin, and LSD are the first to cross my mind).
Before entering other debates, I just want to point out that the purpose of this article is not to promote drug use as I personally have never done drugs: I like to live a clean life by taking care of my body, and I would never advocate for something that destroys your life.
However, one can argue that VR technology is a drug and it might just be able to replace other habits of reaching the “high”.
And this might just be the kind of drug Huey Lewis sang about in his 1983 song “I Want a New Drug”: it doesn’t make you sick, it doesn’t make you crash your car, it won’t make you feel three-feet thick, it won’t hurt your head, won’t make your mouth too dry, and will only make your eyes red in case of overuse (trust me, it sounds a lot better if you simultaneously listen to the tune). Furthermore, it doesn’t spill and doesn’t come in a pill. There you go, Huey! 33 years later, we finally have your solution: VR Porn!
The VR technology is capable of tricking your mind and senses in a way that might be comparable to the sensations mind-altering drugs induce. For example, it is convened that heroin makes you feel like you’re in love and gives you a certain feeling of inner-warmth, relaxation, and comfort. But what if I told you that there are many sensual and erotic VR porn films that will give you the same sensation, with the exception that the vision is stable, predictable, and healthy for your body. Consider, for example, the passionate and loving threesome involving Czech blonde ladies Violette Pink and Cayla Lyons: it’s so good and so pleasuring that it will transport you into a whole new world.
It might be true that LSD trips can sharpen your senses and create mind-boggling distortions in reality, but 20 healthy minutes of immersion in Naughty America VR’s “Fidelio” is guaranteed to blow your mind time and time again! And once again, there is no risk of going mad like Pink Floyd’s Syd Barrett or Jim Morrison in his darker days. As a matter of fact, the experience is thrilling, but stable and can be ended at any point. If you ever feel dizzy, or the overuse of the headset gives you a headache, you don’t have to suffer side-effects and nasty consequences. You’re free to choose and decide for yourself how long the VR sessions turn out to be, and how much satisfaction you want to get out of the intimate moments. Conversely, dropping acid is unpredictable and its side effects are pretty much unavoidable. There is nothing you can do about that nausea after the effect is gone.
But let’s also consider marijuana, one of the most popular illegal drugs that a lot of people use for recreational or medicinal purposes. While many states around the world are beginning to legalize it under strict conditions, it still can have unpleasant side effects like depression, lack of motivation, diziness, and dry mouth. If you decide to watch “Balls Deep 2” through your VR headset instead, you will feel happy, excited, content, motivated to score, and your mouth will be drooling like crazy!
Wanna talk about “energizing” drugs like cocaine and speed? Well, they are best known for their ability to make you feel fast, invincible, euphoric, more self-confident, and less anxious. On the other hand, the side effects include nausea, paranoia, depression, sleep problems, mood disturbances, hallucinations, and even heart attacks!
If you want to feel better about yourself, get that incredibly manly feeling that puts you in the center of attention and makes you become appreciated, cherished, and worshiped, then you should watch the incredible orgy VR films. Probably the most fitting example that guarantees these desirable feelings is “Merry XXXmas and Naughty New Year” by VRBangers, a true masterpiece of the genre where 5 gorgeous women will take care of all of your senses. Remember when Lou Reed said in his Velvet Underground cult hit “Heroin” that it makes him feel like he’s a man? Well, the recommended VR orgy will take that feeling through the roof for a lesser price: both financial and health-related.
And since I’ve mentioned costs, it should definitely be noted that drugs are expensive, unreliable in terms of quality (it might depend on the source, and the illegal transactions can never guarantee the same concentration, quantity, or purity), hard to find, threats for your personal freedom, health and sanity, and potential life-ruining substances. The VR headset, in the worst case scenario, will make you feel dizzy, tired, or give you neck pain due to the extra weight. But under no circumstances do these images cause psychological addiction that requires going to rehab (which is also very expensive).
All you need to spend for the ultimate VR Porn experience is a HTC Vive / Oculus Rift, a $1000 computer with a new video card and plenty of RAM memory and processing power, and a cheap monthly subscription to your favorite website (or better yet, you can watch hundreds of VR porn films for free on our website!). Conversely, drugs will bankrupt you as soon as you become addicted – and if you live in a toxic environment or have weak willpower, then it’s very likely that you will become addicted and lose everything you’ve worked for. Compare the $1500 price tag for VR euphoria with the long-term commitment of satisfying your addiction and looking for that feeling you had that magical first time. I’m glad to affirm that VR porn might be responsible for future declines in drug use, since users will fulfill their wild fantasies through a medium that boosts their self-esteem, makes them feel happy and desired, but doesn’t take away from them what is outside the VR headset.
I can boldly say that the technology and its ground-breaking software can be used to help drug addicts get over their state and replace the chemical highs with something more healthy. Additionally, even smoking cigarettes, a habit that is associated with removing anxiety, relieving stress, and taking hourly breaks, can be replaced with VR apps.
If we look for what causes the addiction and find the right virtual reality images to recreate the same feeling, then we can go to great lengths and build a healthier and more aware society.
VR porn isn’t a drug in itself: it’s just an immersive medium that can potentially stimulate your mind and body to feel similar sensations to those induced by drugs. Therefore, what we have to do when promoting the technology is continuously take into consideration the impact on the human mind, rather than just the visuals. Research should be conducted in collaboration with psychologists and neuro-scientists in order to successfully replace human vices with healthier technological habits that give the same “high”.
At the end of the day, VR porn won’t completely replace drugs, but it has a lot of potential in helping reduce the consumption of such substances. If we use this innovative technology the right way and focus on what the people need in their daily lives, then we might just witness history in the making, and a radical paradigmatic change of social structure. So let’s all think about the advantages of a society with more VR and less drugs, and think about how we can achieve it.

pornography and drugs are both recreation, and both has different effects. I don’t think it can replace drugs.

I think that vr porn will be like taking the essence of the dopamine rush from sexual stimulation in its purest form. In other words, yes, it will be like a drug
