"Cam girls" are individuals, often women, who perform live on webcam for an online audience. They typically engage in various activities, such as chatting, dancing, or other forms of entertainment, while viewers can interact with them through text or video. This form of entertainment is part of the broader adult entertainment industry and can be accessed through various platforms. These performers often create their own content and set their own schedules, allowing for a degree of independence. Many cam girls use social media to promote their shows and build a following, while some may also offer private sessions for a fee. The industry has grown significantly with the rise of the internet and streaming technology.
