It is illegal to take or send nude photos of someone under 18, unless they are your partner or you are a parent in a parental role. That isn’t to say you cannot request such photos from someone over 18 – but it is important to consider the context of your request, as an ill-timed or random one may be taken as creepy or offensive.
The article outlines some ways to respectfully solicit nudes without being “that guy.” For example, it suggests asking for photos only after a period of flirting, when it’s already clear that the relationship has a sexy tone. Asking in the middle of a conversation that is purely about roommate drama or work stresses can feel inappropriate and put her on edge.
Men who spend regular time with a camgirl often begin to feel as if they know her on a personal level. Some even report falling in love with her.
However, it is important to remember that most camgirls make money by exploiting addictive behaviour. They are providing a service that many people find titillating and sexy, but their livelihood is dependent on the small percentage of men who purchase tokens and stay in their chat rooms for as long as possible. Token purchases are similar to microtransactions in video games, where gaming companies make the majority of their profits from a tiny minority of addicted gamers who keep spending money for more and more virtual goods.
