Chaturbate is the combination of the terms 'chat' and 'masturbate'. The live sex site is a pornographic website that hosts live webcam performances by individual webcam models and couples, including nudity and sexual activity ranging from striptease and romantic chat to more explicit sexual actions like masturbation with sex toys. The website is organized into six categories: female cams, male cams, couple cams, transgender cams, private shows, and spy shows. Gender-specific categories are free to see, but spectators must pay to attend a private presentation. Spy shows are private shows in which spectators do not engage, hence they cost less to watch than private performances. Models may synchronize remote-controlled vibrators and other sex toys such that they activate when "tipped" and the frequency is modified by the number of "tips" supplied. It is estimated that the site attracts around 117 million monthly visitors.
