What is cyber sex? 

Cybersex is the ability to obtain sexual arousal through technology, such as a computer, smartphone, tablet, or through the use of virtual reality equipment.

It can take the form of phone calls, video calls, text messages, or sharing photos over the Internet. In this way, one or more people can obtain sexual satisfaction or fulfill their fantasies without real physical interaction. 

Generally, cyber sex includes physical masturbation, and the use of imagination is key to this type of sexual practice, which is not only used between strangers, it is also used as a tool for lovers or long-distance couples. Connect while apart, or for people who see each other regularly and want to receive sexual stimulation while apart.

6 essential tips to be successful in cybersex. 

If you're new to cybersex and have no idea where or how to start, here are six tips to help you navigate through the virtual world, aka the Internet.

Be smart. 

If you're simply looking to connect with someone online (and even if you're somewhat curious about meeting someone in real life), never reveal any personal details.

You may think that providing your name or address to someone is harmless, but by doing so, you open yourself up to the possibility of cyberstalking, real-life harassment or danger, or even identity theft.

It's also important to remember that the person on the other end may not be who they say they are. The Internet can definitely be a dangerous place, so you have to be smart and cautious. 

Create a new email address. 

In July 2015, Ashley Madison, a website created for the sole purpose of encouraging extramarital affairs, suffered a data breach. This caused the information of those who had registered on the website to be leaked to the public. This included names, addresses, email addresses, and credit card transactions.

The problem is that by providing websites with your real information, including your active email address, you are exposing yourself to some risk. You should create a fake email and use it only for online interactions, it's the only way to be safe.

Cybersex still requires consent. 

Just because the anonymity factor comes into play with cybersex does not mean that respect, human decency, legality and consent go away.

Cybersex should span boundaries, and both people should feel comfortable with what they are doing.

How to establish a first contact. 

In addition to having an Internet connection, which is obvious that you will also need it, you must create a real human connection, it is very important that the other person feels an affinity, especially in the case of women, they usually do not like that in an first contact they consider them a promiscuous person. Take your time and chat with the person to get an idea of who they are, you have to give them space to get to know each other, and open up time later for more erotic situations.

Always remember that the person you are talking to is a real human being, so always be respectful.

Auditory and visual stimulation. 

The first rule is to feel comfortable, if at this point we contribute a phone call or a video call we will possibly begin a path with a much more sensual and intimate treatment.

Listening to someone's voice while they whisper to us, talk dirty or even moan, can provide great excitement and states of ecstasy.

But again, take things slow, control the situation and don't get ahead of yourself by asking them for a cybersex video session right away.

Sex toys 

Of course this option is initially ruled out and subsequently not mandatory, but depending on who you are having cyber sex with, a sex toy can add a little spice to your sexy sessions.

Not only that, but you could also add body lotions, sexy lingerie, soft lights, candles to set the mood, a whole world of possibilities.
