I don't use Twitch, I've never looked for anything related on Youtube and I don't watch Youtubers of this style (if they exist), but Youtube sometimes recommends me this kind of trash content that I don't understand how there are people who watch it, and less I understand the simps who are lovers of a certain streamer and consume religiously this kind of content.

Pardon the expression, but instead of consuming this shit people can search in their favorite search engine "porn" and that's it, they don't have to consume this kind of shit.

If there is someone here that consumes this kind of content, I would love to know why you consume it, maybe there is some real reason that I haven't considered.

I also don't understand people who watch, but I mean, people must, otherwise it wouldn't exist as much as I hear it does. I would imagine it has some amount of basis in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasocial_interaction

I don't "consume this kind of content," but I'd be lying if I said I'd never looked sometimes so I do get it on some level. The real answer is mostly that the videos you're seeing are click bait marketing and probably intended(for lack of a better word) for a younger audience.

However, sexual feelings aren't exclusively related to physical attraction. Porn is very much an impersonal and mechanical medium for sexual feelings. Someone who you have familiarity with being a really cool person can elicit so much better of an experience than a random porn video in a lot of occasions. It goes back to the para social relationship linked in another comment and there's a reason Onlyfans and things like it are so popular.
