Webcam / Chat Sites

I’ve popped my cherry (metaphorically speaking). After seven years working in and around the adult internet I’ve finally had my first experience with webcam shows thanks to LiveJasmin. A few days ago I figured that I would go ahead and see what everyone was talking about and actually explore one of these webcam sites. I wanted to start with one of the big ones so after a little research I settled on LiveJasmin, which has a ton of cams to choose from and a nice mix of categories.

The other thing LiveJasmin has is the ability to view cam shows without having to sign for an account or fork out any money or credit card information. My research showed that many sites at least want your email address and some ask that you give a credit card, which they won’t charge until you say so, just for age verification. LiveJasmin doesn’t require you jump through any of these hoops, and that was one of the reasons I chose them.

Live CamContacts girls

The first thing you see when visiting the site is a list of categories, broken up between the free live chat cams and the members only cams. There’s also a small contingent of non nude cams, but there are very few live performers on these and I’m not sure why you’d use them anyway, considering what else is available.

Albert Hofmann turned 100 today. So what, who’s that, and what does it have to do with cams? Well, Hofmann invented LSD, and on hearing it was his 100th birthday, I decided to take my own kind of trip in honor of the man who invented acid trips. I decided to go to places that I’m not really into normally, being fairly vanilla. Adventure and new territory were my slogans. I returned to camcontacts, ftvgirls, and livejasmin and clicked fearlessly on such normally (for me) plain boring or actually squirmy stuff as domination, gender benders, massive toys, feet etc. (Okay, full disclosure: I’m also looking because a) I think my playmate would like me to be more fun and b) it’s research for my Great Novel.) Interesting. Very interesting, especially, to contemplate what wildly different tastes people have, and the very strange things people like. I can see this becoming a semi-regular column: how kinky do you like it? So, here are just a few points to start with:

Gender-bender. First, the obvious – a great many of the transsexuals, cross-dressers and transvestites look like low-rent versions of the best Thai ladyboys. You know, the kind that guys get picked up by in Bangkok and Koh Samui, make out with, fondle, and get done by, and later refuse, refuse to believe the truth about. Well, most of the gender-benders on livejasmin aren’t that kind. Camcontacts has a wider range, some really subtle, some sledgehammer, and some with such uniquely filthy minds, they can make even me think about what it might be like. I just have one grouse: when I’m on the lookout for smut, kinky or otherwise, I don’t want to see anyone mark the ‘neuter’ box in gender. I prefer ‘omnisexual’ for people who are going to massage their tits on cam chat while they insert a butt plug, adjust their strap-on or tighten their cock ring.

The girls at livejasmin will sometimes do quite a lot. For free. When I was there recently, there were at least five girls doing the every misspelled bidding of visitors: smacking their asses, massaging their breasts, fingering themselves, showing their feet (yeah, whatever) and more, before they took it to private chat. While some of them girls really are pretty and sexy in a ‘cute’ sort of way, not all are terribly attractive or even ‘girls’, in actual fact, and a few clearly need to work on their skincare and fitness regimens. Still, you know what? There’s something pretty exciting about knowing you’ll get something just for showing up at livejasmin.

With well over 8500 performers, and typically hosting over 250 online performers at any given time, livejasmin.com will probably have exactly what you’re looking for in a video chat. Choose from girls, guys, some of each, or whatever you want- chances are you can find them online and ready to go at livejasmin.

The downside of livejasmin is the slow video feeds. While some sites video chats display almost like you’re right there- with no “skipping” in between the movements of the chat hosts, the performers I saw in the free video chats at livejasmin seem to be delayed a second or two- which results in choppy movements that might be distracting.
