Daniel Golden, vice president of adult site DreamCam, and cam model Carly Evans spoke to The Sun about how the metaverse could evolve sex online.

Mark Zuckerberg recently said he thinks people will one day spend most of their time in the metaverse.

Turning our everyday lives virtual will take some adapting and new approaches to common activities, including sex.

Golden told The Sun: "I think the metaverse could change the sex industry and the sex industry could change the metaverse.

"The sex industry has been driving technological innovations for years, since VHS tapes, and I think the expanding technology and room for fantasy in the metaverse will provide a great environment for not just Dreamcam users but sexually curious individuals to try new things."

Golden says he has seen a "large jump" in the amount of people using his adult cam website since the pandemic.

He thinks sex in the metaverse has a number of positives and could become just as common as sex in real life.

Golden explained: "We are all human and sex is a part of life, whether that's in the metaverse or not.

"In the metaverse it doesn't matter what you look like and users even get to choose.
