Cum For Me! The Joys of JOI Porn
Exploring the thriving genre of porn referred to as JOI (Jerk off Instructions)
Baby, tonight I’m in charge, and you’re gonna do exactly what I tell you. Alright? Soon, I’m going to ask you to stroke that throbbing cock of yours, just for me. And later, you’re going to cum, so fucking hard — but NOT until I tell you to. Got it?
Welcome to the world of JOI, a genre of porn where the performer, usually female, instructs her predominantly male viewers on how to wank. The popularity of JOI — short for jerk-off-instructions — has grown steadily across the adult webosphere, only to blossom exponentially over the past years. It’s even in PornHub’s top 30 most searched terms for 2021.
Being told how and when to get off might sound annoying, or even intrusive, to some, but to others, it’s the ultimate fantasy. So, what’s the allure of this kind of porn and why would someone want a random person online to control how they masturbate?
As a kink educator and BDSM practitioner, I have a handful of ideas of my own, yet curious to find out more about what ticks the average JOI user, I asked my Instagram audience to chime in with their viewpoints.
