ASMR is an internet niche that has been widely misunderstood by the public. It is a widespread misconception that ASMR is sexual or disgusting in nature.
As a long-time ASMR user, I can confidently tell you that:
1)ASMR is NOT mukbang.
2) ASMR is NOT some girl vociferously licking the microphone like a dog.
3) ASMR is NOT anything that involves bodily fluids.
4) ASMR is NOT sexual.
The truth is, ASMR is none of that weird disgusting stuff, it is actually quite inoffensive in nature. The fundamental purpose of ASMR is to induce a state of relaxation into the listener through what people call "tingles", which are tingly sensations you get in the scalp and elsewhere throughout the body. This is mainly achieved through hearing gentle whispers and soft delicate sounds. It can also be achieved through watching someone pamper you (e.g. barbershop roleplays, doctor roleplays, etc).
ASMR has always been about ear-to-ear whispering. It has always been about exploring the satisfying sounds that various materials make (e.g. leaves crunching). It has NEVER been about mic licking, I hope people seriously realize this.

Alice: Do you listen to ASMR?
Steph: Of course! My favourite one is that girl who eats an entire seafood platter.
Alice: Um..... I would hardly call that ASMR.
Steph: Why not?
Alice: ASMR is supposed to be relaxing. Listening to someone slurping loudly on ramen ain't relaxing in the slightest. Go listen to GentleWhispering, ASMR Darling or Ephemeral Rift if you want some actual ASMR content.

Dude 1: Hey so I've been enjoying some ASMR lately.
Dude 2: Oh? Which ASMRtist
Dude 1: Some chick called Amouranth, she's mad hot too.
Dude 2: I would rather you associate Bob Ross' livestreams as ASMR than to associate that horny mongrel licking a microphone as ASMR.

ASMR is really popular on YouTube is something that people find satisfying and other people find unsatisfying. ASMR is when you put the mic very close to what type of thing that you are going to be doing and then you just are going to do what you were going to do for the ASMR video that you could post YouTube. You have to make sure they hear the most quietest thing you do like eating, whispering, and tapping your nails.

Audio and video recordings, usually recorded with a good microphone, of sounds like dumb women whispering and guys scraping their unshaved testicles against the microphone for your satisfaction.
Evolution has failed.
Sorry Darwin, we tried.

Q:Why are you half naked with a microphone between your legs?
A:I'm recording very serious sounds that help a lot of people, today it's testicle day.
"I'm afraid of my real problems and refuse to go see a professional so instead I'm watching and listing ASMR"
