Cam fetishes explained for live shows

On cam sites you see a long list of fetishes and themes. Here is a short, plain-language guide to what they usually mean and what you can expect from a live show.

Main fetishes

• Anal – finger, toys or penetration in the ass. Expect lube, slower warm-up and focus on backdoor play.
• BDSM – bondage, discipline, dominance and submission. Light cam version: cuffs, rope, spanking, orders.
• Creampie – the fantasy of “finish inside”. On cam it’s mostly roleplay, dirty talk or toy play.
• Cuckold – humiliation fantasy: you watch “your girl” enjoy someone else and get teased for it.
• Deepthroat – taking a dildo or toy very deep in the throat, gagging, lots of saliva and noise.
• Dominant / Femdom – model takes control, gives orders, teases, denies, humiliates in a playful or strict way.
• Facials – focus on “finishing” on the face (often simulated on cam with toys, cream, roleplay).
• Feet – close-ups of soles, toes, heels, stockings, high heels, foot worship and JOI with feet.
• Gagging – stronger deepthroat with louder gag sounds, drool and a rougher vibe.
• Interactive toy – toys that react to tips (Lovense etc.). You send tokens, the toy vibrates live.
• Lactation – models that can produce a bit of milk and show it on cam.
• Leather / rubber / latex – tight shiny outfits, corsets, gloves, boots; classic fetish wardrobe.
• Roleplay – characters and stories: teacher/student, nurse, boss, neighbour, etc.
• Shaving – live shaving of pubic hair or body hair on cam.
• Smoking – the model smokes cigarettes, cigars or vape as a part of the show.
• Spanking / paddling – butt slapping with hand or paddle, sometimes with small marks.
• Stockings & nylons – focus on legs, pantyhose, thigh-highs and tearing or rolling them down.
• Submissive – the model follows orders, calls you “sir”, “mistress” etc., lets you lead the show.
• Underwear – soft shows with lingerie, panties play, teasing without full nudity.
• Voyeur – “you are watching us” vibe, couple shows or hidden camera fantasy.
