Judging from the flood of amateur porn flooding the internet, video taping sex is becoming more and more mainstream. My question is, what's the appeal? Is it the implied (or actual, if it is uploaded somewhere) voyeurism/exhibitionism? Is the reward sexual (immediate gratification during filming) or psychological (satisfaction retained for future referral)? What
is the motivation for taping sex?
I, obviously, have never been taped while having sex (that I'm aware of
), and am curious why someone would want to have potentially damaging footage lying around, when it seems to me that the consequences far outweigh the advantages, whatever those advantages may be.
