What the hell will they think of next? Now, I'm not sure how into this I am, but it's a little intriguing. So, apparently Google Glass, the new new Google eye wear that allows you to surf the web while you wear the glasses, just introduced a new app that lets wearers see sex from a different point of view...their partner's. Not for nothing, but if we're I'm in the missionary position, the last thing that I was to see is my face during sex. Shall I take it a step further? What about doggy-style? Do I really want to see the pillow face first? Or even the head board of the bed? I'm not sure I like this too much!
Anyway, this is how it works: both people are equipped with the augmented reality specs, and obviously nothing else, and they can see what their partner sees during the deed, awkward angles and all. You can also connect your iPhone and watch yourself from a different angle of the room. Now, why would I want to watch that? I mean, I guess different things for different people, but do people really get off on watching themselves have sex? I prefer to watch other people...Oops! Did I just say that out loud? According to the app's creators, "It gives 'looking into each other's eyes' a less romantic meaning, but we're just trying to change the way people experience things."
Like I said, the Glance App, as it is called, films a video of the tryst so that users can watch it again when all is said and done. What is this? Like watching football films to see what you did wrong? "Oh, honey, you could have done the reverse cowgirl about 30 seconds in. Maybe, I could've lasted a little bit longer." What the hell?
To activate the glasses, you simply say, "OK Glass, it's time," and the app will begin streaming what your partner sees in front of your own eyes. If you don't like what you see, you just have to say, "OK, Glass, pull out." Pull out? Are they kidding? A website for the app, which isn't out yet but is accepting early sign-ups, also includes suggested commands like "play Marvin Gaye" or "lights off." Those who weren't crazy about the new app likened it to amateur porn and suggested that it's just not necessary. Cosmo magazine compared the new streaming app to taking a selfie, "but pornier."
What has this society come to? Are we that into ourselves that now we have to look at ourselves as we're having sex? Let's not forget that everything that is streamed also goes into some server somewhere, so there will be some sort of proof of your encounter and if a hacker gets into that, you'll be an Internet porn star. Yeah, this app does not tickle my fancy. I'm not that into myself that I need to watch myself have sex. Then again, if she was that interested in it, I might be able to be swayed.
