BUDAPEST, Hungary — LiveJasmin has released the results of a study about virtual dating, the first in a series of studies being produced in partnership with the Kinsey Institute.
The series explores how virtual dating through live cam services affects sexual health and mental well-being. The first study in the series surveyed over 5,000 LiveJasmin users, yielding insights into how virtual dating can foster sexual knowledge, communication and confidence.
Among the participants, over 80% have been using LiveJasmin for longer than two years. Over 60% of respondents reported learning something new about their own sexuality or the opposite gender's sexuality through virtual dating on the platform, while 30% acknowledged becoming better sexual partners as a result of their interactions on the site.
Nearly all participants emphasized the importance of establishing a personal connection with good chemistry to enhance intimacy, and reported increased levels of self-confidence in their sex lives.
“Live cam sites like LiveJasmin offer a unique environment where openness and vulnerability are the norm, which contrasts starkly with the expectations people face in their daily lives, particularly men,” explained the Kinsey Institute's associate director for research, Dr. Amanda N. Gesselman.
Gesselman, who headed the team that conducted the study, added that the results revealed “significant growth and learning in sexual knowledge, including how to be a better sexual partner to women and how to navigate sexual consent.”
Live Jasmin co-founder and director, Károly Papp, added that the study highlights “the crucial role of open communication in sexual relationships and how being able to discuss anything with your partner leads to greater self-confidence.”
LiveJasmin's primary focus, Papp noted, “has always been the 'human connection' aspect of live camming, which is why our users prefer our service over adult videos. The ability to connect and talk to a model provides a more meaningful and satisfying experience for viewers.”
