Forbes: Audio Porn Thriving in a 'Stay-At-Home' Era

LOS ANGELES — Audio porn — non-visual adult content that has thrived in the age of the podcast — is another form of adult entertainment thriving during the "stay-at-home" era prompted by the COVID-19 health crisis.

According to a recent Forbes report, “audio porn is booming in quarantine as people look for intimacy, escapism and pleasure.”

Audio porn producers like the app Dipsea have, according to Forbes, “reported a spike in interest since social distancing restrictions began across North America and Europe in March.”

The audio porn producers report that the coronavirus pandemic has "led to people turning to audio erotica as a form of self-care."

Dipsea has reported “an 84% increase in subscriber volume since quarantine measures began.”

Co-founder Gina Gutierrez told Forbes that “isolation has forced people to tap into their need for pleasure, while listening to a sexy story is a great way to self-soothe in times of anxiety.”

“Stories are so important in this time of social isolation,” Gutierrez added. “They transport us, nurture our imaginations and remind us of the possibilities out there waiting for us. We're not meeting any attractive strangers on the subway platform right now, but in a Dipsea story we can be.”
