    Wait, you mean to tell me that the beautiful woman that you are talking to online could actually be a marketing team that is creating the idealized image of said woman designed specifically as a commercial product, like some kind of movie about a plastic doll, Barbie, now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services?

    Who would do such a thing?

    The agency’s manager sent me a background memo about the woman I’d be playing, a purported 21-year-old university student blessed with physical proportions that are in vogue these days.

    In vogue these days? That just reminds me of how every generation thinks they invented sex. Or the Simpsons quote where Mr. Burns describes a past encounter: “We expressed our love physically, as was the style at the time.”

    This is paywalled so I can’t read it and OF is not my preferred type of eroticism, so… there’s just text chat as well? Like OF Discord or something? I thought people typed something in and the person on camera responded to what they read?

    This seems like it is an interesting article. Unfortunately, I cannot read it due to a paywall. Oh well.
