AMSTERDAM — Dutch transportation authorities are investigating content platforms such as F2F and OnlyFans, attempting to identify sex videos shot aboard the country’s trains.
The investigation was made public in a sensationalizing article published Monday by Dutch news site NOS, claiming that more than 100 “disgusting and unacceptable videos of ‘train jerk-offs’” are available on the platforms.
The article quotes salacious excerpts from the audio of purported train masturbation videos, such as “The 20-minute train ride from Almere to Amsterdam makes me horny every time.”
The NOS article explains, “These videos were recorded with phones in compartments, where sometimes unsuspecting passengers are also filmed ... In about half of the cases, the maker also finishes.”
According to NOS, teasers for these public videos are accessible on X.
A Dutch management agency for OnlyFans creators told NOS that the popularity of “train jerk-off” videos has increased in the past year.
“These types of videos yield three to four times more than a regular video of two people having sex in a room,” he explained. “Also they are often done on request, which means a higher payment."
NOS pointed out that although public masturbation is prohibited under Dutch criminal law, it was only as of July 1 that a moving train was legally redefined as “a public place.”
Dutch railway company NS told NOS that it “recognizes the relatively new problem” and added that “the extent of the phenomenon is not yet entirely clear, although it appears that it may occur more often than we think.”
NS said it is currently researching how prevalent such videos are online and working with the judiciary and the police to "investigate whether more should be done about this."
As XBIZ reported, Dutch courts have been policing tube sites for content featuring Dutch nationals and issuing takedown notices to platforms that cannot produce consent paperwork.
