That title is a little awkward because there is a lot I am trying to get across.
I argue that in these days or easy access to adult content that when it comes to fantasising (yes and masturbation too) boys and girls tend to gravitate to celebrities and New Media Stars. What has lead to this? Whereas 10 years ago it might be that mystery hot blonde from a poster or a male model looking extra good in his Calvin Klein's that really set pulses racing.
There seems to be more of a need or desire to connect to the object of your desire on a superficial level. Yep we can blame Social Media all the way back to MySpace to now. Celebrities have followers now that they can connect with directly, followers who can be mobilized into an army for good or ill.
Look at YouTube which can pull people up from obscurity through a mix of hustle and luck. Trust a guy who searches through adult content the amount of stuff around YouTube and New Media Stars is staggering and a lot more numerous than stuff about say Porn Stars.
The name of the video ensured I had to pick it
That could be down to people wanting to actually use their imagination. You hope to see that YouTuber or actress in a bikini or sexy cosplay you imagine what they look like from that time they wore that cute outfit. You're actively engaging your brain to imagine the possibility instead of typing say Gianna Michaels into the search bar of your preferred Porn Engine.
I don't know about you but I think people willing to imagine is generally a good thing and is to be encouraged though obviously it is a double edged sword. The harassment of celebrities by anonymous people online or the harassment of others "on behalf of" celebrities is not a new thing and it is something I wish we could end.
I think maybe Asia got to it first with their whole Idol culture, people who are just there to adored by the masses (and sell loads of merch). They are famous for being famous or attractive which is something a significant part of the West still rails against even as the House Kardashian thrives.

Just a thought from yours truly something to think about.
