What is the scientific explanation for ASMR and why did it blow

trends. just like ADHD, Asperger's and similar shit.

>>9080202
Fuck off this is /sci/ not /pseudosci/

the really good ones do have some effect, so I guess it was kindof like let's-play videos where everyone and their dog said "hey, I could do that" and then did it.

Bored people + weird thing = fad.

it makes my dick hard

It actually takes quite a bit of talent to be good at ASMR videos. Especially since you can quickly build a tolerance to the sensation, and need better and more varried stimuli to keep feelin' it.

ASMR simulates intimacy with a human of the opposite sex because people only whisper like that when they're very close to each other. Try watching ASMR of whatever sex you're not attracted to, not only will it not work, you'll feel repulsed.

>>9080833
As a straight dude that loves cute big titied chicks

My favorite asmr makers are dudes

Bitches dont got shit on dimitri, fred and rift.

Except maybe pommo

>>9080867
>sjws got so mad rift made a mankey asmr even as a joke about the over abundance of feminine asmr, that they started a smear campaign taking his asmr roleplays out of context

And then they wonder why we hate them

>>9080891
>mankey asmr

I meant manley

Fuck me and my fat fingers

Asmr has nothing to do with sexual orientation you chucklefuck

I dont get a rise out of men speaking into my fucking ear. Asmr is simply a pleasurable sensation in your skull and sometimes your back, nothing more.

Asmr more than likely has roots in grooming, a hold over from when your mother or possibly even father would do especially in the case of animals.

Just because youre sexually insecure doesnt mean everone else is

>>9080918
I am not insecure about my sexuality. I have no problem making you feel a tingling sensation in your skull with my dick. You're just a homophobe who can't accept that they're bi.

>>9080918
Wow you're homophobic.

>>9080928
Explain asmr videos with only ear cleaning sounds and no video or taling frm the video maker

Explain the asmr people get from the toy story 2 cleaning scene

I guess they just want to fuck toys and earpicks?

>>9080946
There's a toy fetish. Are you toyaphobic now?

>>9080969
Explain earpicks

>>9080978
Some people get a hard on for earpicks, there's a lot of fetishes out there. You never know.

>>9080980
Whats more likely

Someone happens to like the sounds things make

Or they actually have hundreds of additional sexual fetishes thay dont give them a response in other situations

>>9081004
Where do we draw the line between feeling pleasure from something you woudn't expect someone to get pleasure from and having a sexual fetish? Is there even a line to draw?

Is that related to the Orgasm in Sex or masturbation?

>>9081026
I'd say it's more like being sexually teased like in BDSM only much less intense, but I think you're on the right track. It's pretty much common knowledge that the explanation is something sexual.

>>9081026
>Is that related to the Orgasm in Sex or masturbation?
Nope. For one, it doesn't feel climactic.

>>9081023
Does it make your dick hard? Then it's a fetish. It doesn't make your dick hard? Then it's not.

Wow that was difficult. Fucking retard.

>>9081071
Whether or not something sexual gives you a boner depends on your sex drive and how sexual that thing is. More sexual things can make someone diamonds, while less sexual things only render a half-chub. ASMR might just be very low on the spectrum
