@OogieBoogie No, the performers know your watching. Could be in a room surrounded or on stage. That's why I said, like a play, if you have ever been to a play. Fake acting and then sex.
@Alessa oh you mean swingers clubs and peep shows,. Now i gotcha 馃憤 ALL acting is fake馃し, its why its called acting. Voyeurism is the kink of liking to watch people in sexual acts ...the voyeur can be hidden and spying, or can be known and present.
Its the act of "viewing ' that makes it voyeuristic.
@Alessa i was under the impression that voyeurism is 'the sexual desire of watching people naked or in sexual acts'.
If a play isnt sexual, then it isnt voyeurism - it has to have some sort of perceived sexual nature by the viewer.
Like, say you and i go to the beach. And my kink is feet, and yours isn't. We could both be looking at people and their naked feet, but i would be doing it voyeuristically, and you wouldn't - if that makes sense?馃し
Edit: I did end up looking it up, and came across both definitions.
So i digged a liitle deeper.
Then i came across a great article on it that described 'responsible voyeurism' : where parties are consenting: pornography and situations like the performance play you mentioned, only fans etc. Then there is' voyeristic disorder' where its a sneaky type of voyeurism, where one party doesn't know they are being watched - ie: peeping toms.
So there you go - it has more meaning to it than just one specific thing .
