Camming Without Nudity: A Unique Path

Camming Without Nudity: A Unique Path

‘Take your clothes off, I’m horny! Now!” Yeah … right. How about you go and send me 1000 credits as a surprise, because I want to buy some shoes? See? Things don’t work like that.

I’m Sadie and I’ve been a cam model for just a few months. I chose to work with Studio 20 and LiveJasmin and also, chose to be on HotFlirt — not because I’m a prude or anything, not because I don’t enjoy doing sexy things, but just because I’m a bit shy, a bit old school and yes, because I’d actually like to know who you are, where you’re from and a bit about yourself before I strip down and open my legs for you.

Connection, conversation, care — that’s what this whole industry is about and that’s all that is lacking in our lives right now. That’s why people come to cams, to cam girls, to me.

Call me whatever, I understand the irony … me, working in adult, being all goodie-goodie. But, I do think that web camming is more about conversation and creating connections with people rather than just about sexy times with a stranger via cam.

I do it, with the members that I’ve gotten to know, but what happens in private, stays private. I think of them as special people from my life that share with me their secrets, wishes and fantasies. And I do the same with them.

Connection, conversation, care — that’s what this whole industry is about and that’s all that is lacking in our lives right now. That’s why people come to cams, to cam girls, to me.

I found so many interesting things about this job and just the way the human mind works is amazing. Never in my life did I expect so many fetishes, to hear so many things, to see so many things that both intrigue, disgust and captivate me.

You’re turning me into a little freak, web camming!

But I love it. I love that I have the power and even though I’m not a mistress nor am I good at being one, I can control so many things, everything that’s happening in my room. I can say “No!” without ever fearing a chargeback. I can send a message to a member that was so rude as to leave without saying goodbye after we’ve made love that he’s going to come back and actually apologize to me for leaving without saying goodbye.

I think I’m teaching the members some manners. Not just for the way they act with me, but some manners to use with the other girls, with women in their real life. I always ask, “Do you think that you can walk up to a woman in real life, ask her to get undressed fast and cum in five minutes at your count?” and they say, “Sorry.”

Respect. Something nobody seems to understand anymore.

My experience in the cam life has not been a long one, I’ve only been doing this for two months now but I really think we can make a difference in people’s lives just by talking to them and listening.

I love doing it so far; it’s safe for me, it’s fun, it’s thrilling, it’s an awe-some experience that I am so grateful to be having and also, being part of the #girlsfromstudio20 has made me realize how important having a support system is in a woman’s life.

It’s like a sisterhood that I never had, it has taught me how to embrace myself as a person, how to stop being insecure and how to ask for things that are rightfully mine like respect, loyalty and understanding.
