 ManyVids CEO Bella French Pens Essay for Paper Magazine

LOS ANGELES — ManyVids CEO Bella French has penned an essay for Paper Magazine, in which she explains her camming past and her vision for the future of sex.

The essay reveals French’s 2014 introduction to the industry at 22 years of age, following a business setback that forced her to seek new opportunities — as a result, an empire was born.

“The evolution of sexual pleasure is as old as pornography itself,” French wrote. “From the time mankind was able to draw, he was busy drawing erotic images.”

Fast-forwarding “to the age of nudie magazines and films,” French notes that technology gave pornographers the chance to satisfy every taste and fetish imaginable — but the journey isn’t over yet — as “love, joy, compassion, and companionship are at the heart of being fulfilled as a human being.”

“Today, it is through our digital lives that the lines of fantasy and reality have blurred. With the rapid growth of social media and the importance placed on comments and likes in the lives of newer generations, they have transferred their attention towards this worldwide virtual field of peer acceptance,” French says. “The sexier the picture posted, the more ‘love’ you receive.”

French also notes that slowly, the gap between what is real and virtual is closing.

“The growing popularity of plastic surgeries, online filters, [and] video games will have a dramatic impact on sexual desires, especially with the availability and accessibility of porn flooding the internet,” French explains. “In fact, there will no longer be such a thing as a fetish, because normal sex will not exist.”

French says customization will also be a factor when it comes to the behavior and the personality of your sexual partner.

“Toys will become robots and robots will be at the heart of the human sexual experience,” French concludes. “These artificial beings will become our everyday life partners and they will ultimately make many humans happier.”
