- Common Knowledge:
- The “roleplay” aspect of ASMR audios is often decried as simple Wish Fulfillment for people to imagine themselves in the listener’s role. While the listener is genuinely an Audience Surrogate, they typically have genuine characterization and even influence on the plot beyond this, with enough parroted lines for to get a general idea what they’re saying.
- Due to YouTube’s algorithm, many people are led to assume that most ASMR creators are of just one gender.
- Fan Nickname: The unvoiced, unseen character that’s supposed to be an Audience Surrogate is often referred to as “The Listener” or simply “Listener.”
- Friendly Fandoms: Of a sort. Fans of [[Virtual YouTubers Vtubers]] tend to also be fans of ASMR, in no small part due to the sheer amount of content creators who are both.
