NSA Sex Line Parody with Sasha Grey

Why Call a Sex Line When You Can Work for the NSA [Video Parody]

In her new parody the former porn actress-now regular actress Sasha Grey nails the NSA by comparing the federal agency to a phone sex hotline. Grey suggests that joining the NSA is a great alternative to phone sex lines, or rather the ultimate phone sex chat line. Grey quotes the Patriot Act, which allows the agency to peep into phone conversations and cleverly points out that NSA also stands for No Strings Attached, which is what people calling these lines are looking for.

Sexy NSA Commercial With Sasha Grey from Funny Or Die

Dressed in sexy leather porn star stripper clothes and lying on a soft white bed with a burgundy champagne room curtain in the background, Grey asks the viewer “are you lonely? Are you bored? Do you want to listen in on the naughtiest outgoing conversations?” Her delivery is realistic and convincing as she both looks and acts like a real sex chat line spokesperson that she really could be. The parody, aside from the dialogue is as realistic as any late night phone sex commercial and once you realize what Grey is saying it is pretty hard not to burst out laughing as the dialogue hits hard with its humorous stabs at the NSA. The skit must have taken Grey and the filming crew tens upon tens of takes to complete, Grey speaks to viewers in the same tempting manner of a real life stripper or porn actress even though the dialogue is entirely off the wall and hilarious.

Grey goes on to poke more fun saying that “the NSA is the perfect way” to peep in on “phone conversations, emails, texts and Skype sessions” from all around the country. She goes on to say “why join one phone sex line” when if you get a job with the NSA you can have virtually unlimited access to any private chats with both AT&T and Verizon just by joining the NSA. The skit would be suitable on Saturday Night Live or any late night show, particularly cable channels such as HBO and Showtime as Grey in her narration says that by joining members will have unlimited access to a custom designed search engine that allows you to tap into photos sent by “Hotmail, Yahoo, Google, Facebook, Apple, AOL, YouTube, Dropbox and Pal talk, -whatever the F@ck that is.”

As the spokeswoman, Grey is beyond convincing while the humor does not let up through the entire skit as neither does the humorous criticism at the troubled National Security Agency. Grey nails the sexy and sultry voice of a late night sex chat line phone person as she says that NSA stands for “No Strings Attached” and proceeds to burn a copy of the constitution. President Obama is also parodied in the skit while making a thank you phone call to the NSA the president admits that he “has such a huge boner right now.”

Perhaps the message behind/within the skit comes next when Grey compares having unlimited access to phone conversations and photos as being “just like that movie Sliver.” The movie titled Sliver is a movie in which the main character owns a building and spies on all his tenants with hidden video cameras, watching as his tenants fight, cry, argue and have sex. The skit in effect criticizes the NSA as Grey makes the comparison and adds that “except that the ENTIRE country is being watched.”

As she is speaking to the camera, behind Grey are three men who are phone wiretapping, after Grey makes her statement one of the men, dressed in dress shirts and ties much like a federal agent, stops what he is doing, apologizes and asks “is this bugging anybody’s conscience except mine? I can’t live in a country where this type of surveillance happens!” Immediately the other two men drag him off as he tries to say that “people have a right . . .” and Grey, just like an evil brothel house hostess confirms, over a phone, she is shown earlier placing a wiretapping device into, that the “badger is in the cage.”

Whether the intent is just to make the viewing audience laugh or also to criticize and make the NSA look bad, the skit is very entertaining in an intelligent sort of way. Grey couldn’t be better cast, and the production is first rate, this skit is sure to make anybody laugh, -except perhaps the NSA.

Looking for Sex Chat? These are your Options

As a consumer, you have more choices than ever when it comes to increasingly interactive forms of sex chat. This is a good thing, in that there’s enough choice to provide an option that fits almost any budget, but not in an easily found manner. Choice means a complicated process of exploring all your options and deciding which one meets your wants and needs the best.

Luckily, we’ve done you a favor by breaking down all the different options by price range and key features so that you can more easily choose the sex chat experience that fits your budget and tastes. Read on for our guide to sex chat services:

1. Phone Dating Chatlines

Phone dating lines are one of the oldest forms of sex chat option, since they involved the lowest level of technology. On a phone dating chatline, you’re talking to other callers interested in dating or erotic chat. These lines are usually paid, but not to the degree of a phone sex line.

Your trade-off is that you don’t have as much control over the activity on the other end of the conversation. If you want to tell someone what you want them to do, you’d be better off with phone sex line.

Examples: Nightline Chat, Redhot

2. Phone Sex Lines

Examples: Masturline, Mindfuck

When you call a phone sex line, you’re paying bit more for assurance that contacting a phone sex operator (PSO) gives you complete control over subject matter. The PSO will act out almost any scenario, giving you the most bang for your (elevated) buck.

Since you and the PSO are interacting directly, this option gives you both an element of control and an interactive experience, though you’re typically charged by how much time you spend.

3. Adult Webcams

Examples: LiveJasmin, Chaturbate

These cams let the viewer watch for free and then buy tokens for more interactive experiences with the models, including private shows. The upsides to this method of sex chat is that it offers both a visual and interactive experience not available with phone line chats.

The drawback is that to have control over the activity of the models, you’re going to have to spend a pretty penny on tokens.

4. Sexting Apps

Some of these may already be on your smartphone as most are not used exclusively for the purposes of sex chat. Most functions of these apps are free, though some require a paid subscription (for example, arousr.com), and since they are used for a wide variety of purposes, you certainly have choices over how you use them.

The free versions of these apps have certain drawbacks; for example Tinder and the like involve seeking a willing partner for sex chat, Snapchat also (though you can follow your favorite pornstars’ stories for some softcore content). To get assurance that you’ll find what you’re looking for, you’ll have to seek a paid service that provides that.

Examples: Snapchat, Kik, Tinder

5. Sex Chat Rooms

These sites are generally paid, but everyone that uses them is looking for the same general outcome in the form of erotic chat. Since you’re going to be chatting with an amateur like yourself, your chat partner is going to be willing to talk dirty, either in chat box or over video feed (as some of the more modern sites have web cam capacity), but you won’t have the same amount of control as you would with a professional performer.

Examples: Chatavenue, zozo-chat.com

6. Roulette Style Chat Sites

These are similar to sex chat sites, only without the assurance that you’ll land on someone that wants sex chat. It may take you a bit longer to find a willing partner, but most of these services are free, so you won’t spend any excess money to do so.

Proceed with caution: many of these sites are frequented by chatters trying to shock others, due to the sites’ anonymous nature. Don’t assume anyone wants to talk dirty with you without consent, and prepare yourself to see and hear some pretty shocking things.

Examples: Chatroulette, Omegle.com

7. Adult Dating Sites

Think of these like the grown up version of more playful services like tinder and grindr. People use these sites to arrange affairs and dirty dealings, so if you have a noble conscience, think long and hard before you sign up for these (usually paid) services.

Examples: Ashley Madison

So there you have it. As you can see, there’s a multitude of options for every taste, preference and budget, ensuring that no matter who you are, you have options abound for sex chat. With that said, users can almost certainly find willing partners for sex chat (and more) through these avenues.

As always, ChatlineGuide.com promises to be your home for everything related to sex chat you could imagine: reviews, new products and more.

Phone Sex Dashboard of The Future

What The Future of Phone Sex Will Look Like

I’m sure a lot of you have wondered: what does the future hold in store for the phone sex industry? Modern technology promises a shift in the way we communicate, offering instant access to practically anyone in a first-world country, but countries with lesser infrastructure are catching up in terms of ability to communicate worldwide. Will people in these countries take the phone sex mantle away from developed nations? Will phone sex as a whole ever just cease to exist entirely?

Our answer to the last question is no, but we hope we can give you enough information in this article to form your own conclusions.

Recent Trends in Phone Sex

To predict the future, we first have to examine the past, in this case the most recent industry trends.

It’s no secret that the phone sex industry has seen a decline in recent years, due primarily to the recent explosion in popularity of sexting, texting and dating apps. These Apps and websites include tinder, Grindr, snapchat and more. While these are not all used solely for sexual purposes, they fill the void that was previously filled by sex chat lines.




Phone sex between couples in long distance relationships has actually increased; likely due to the fact that they have access to more personal means of communication such as toll-free phone calls and video chat (which to simplify things, we’re defining as modern phone sex). The value of hearing your partner’s voice as you’re engaging in erotic activities over the phone simply cannot be understated.

This means that while conventional phone sex methods like sex chat lines and similar services have seen a decline in their market share compared to newer, more technologically advanced methods, there is still room to innovate phone sex to fit new technology and communication infrastructure.

Projections For the Future of Phone Sex

Using this information, we can project what the future will look like for the phone sex industry, and other industries adjacent to phone sex and erotic video chats:

Phone Sex Will Continue to Decline in Some Markets

There’s no way around the acceptance that the phone sex industry is less popular among members of the younger generation, not because the activity itself is unappealing but because there are more convenient, less expensive alternatives.

Think about this: Phone sex lines are infinitely more expensive than, say, tinder, a dating/sexting app, or Omegle, an anonymous chat site that’s commonly used for sex chat. Both are free for subscribers (tinder is free as long you don’t mind having limited control over the app). This suggests that apps and websites of this nature will continue to take market share away from standard sex chat lines.

That’s not to say that sex chat and phone sex don’t have room to grow, however. There are plenty of markets which phone sex lines have yet only dipped their toes, but there is promise for extension into these areas.

Phone Sex Can Grow Within Certain Demographics

While the industry may be shrinking among the most tech-savvy generation, there is room for growth among certain populations. For example, with society in many nations becoming more accepting of female sexuality, we predict a rise in sex lines marketed to women.

Related: There is a Legitimate Need Of Phone Sex Lines For Women

Previously, most late night sex chat commercials were targeted to men, but with a rise in women’s sexual agency, advertising directed towards women during women’s TV programs and in women’s magazines is something to look out for moving forward.

Interactive Phone Sex is on the Rise

There has been a recent increase in more interactive phone sex, both in the professional and amateur arenas.




First, professional chat lines that use interactive video such as Niteflirt and TalkToMe, among many others online and through mobile platforms, allow their users to sample a Cam Girl (the video version of a Phone Sex Operator) and enter their “private room”. In a way, it’s like a long-distance strip club with way more options than a physical club.

Another means of interactive sex chat that’s being used professionally, as well as by long-distance couples is the integration of remote-controlled sex toys into the action. The toys are controlled by the operator, by the client or both as a way to heighten the intensity of long-distance sex simulation. This is also helpful for people with disabilities who might not be able to engage in conventional sex but still want to feel like they’re doing it.

Additionally, as wireless connections and smartphone availability continues to increase, more couples will choose to engage in “cyber sex”, the act of simulating sex over a video call.

Better Communication Means More Available Sex Chat

Phone sex has been popular for a long time, but not necessarily all over the world. With the rise in communication infrastructure in traditionally underrepresented countries, a new capacity for phone sex may arise.

As phone sex becomes more international, more people will become Phone Sex Operators, and the competition will combine with the enhanced access to the different variations of phone sex as a service, thus pushing the price downward. This will expand the availability of phone sex, especially in traditionally underserved areas of the world.

In Conclusion

Will traditional phone sex ever cease to exist entirely? We say no. Phone sex lines and chat lines provide a service that to this point in time can’t be replaced, for two reasons.

  • Phone sex offers the experience of hiring a professional service to get the job done, a luxury that some users will never opt out of.
  • Phone sex and chat lines offer a degree of personal, intimate experience that has no equal amongst the modern replacements.

For these reasons, traditional phone sex will never completely die. It’s a convenient method of achieving a goal, and that can never be understated, but we believe its market share will be spread into more innovative interactive versions of the service in the future.

Time will tell whether our predictions hold true. One thing we do know for sure, however, is that The Chatline Guide will continue to be your one-stop shop for phone sex news, reviews and all the information you could ever need!

Former PSO Remembers Weirdest Phone Sex Calls

As a phone sex operator, I had the opportunity to do what I loved. I had never tried it before, but I had heard my friends talk about it, and it seemed exciting. When an opportunity presented itself, I knew this was what I wanted to do. I did not hesitate to apply since the requirements that they were asking for were easy to get. After two weeks, I was called by a lady saying that I had got the opportunity. The interview happened over the phone. She asked several questions about my availability, which other languages I was familiar with, whether I was able to talk in any other accents and how many hours I’d be available per week. We also talked about the pay, and once we settled everything, I was good to start. I started the following day at night.

Some of the weirdest calls that I encountered during my career as a PSO

Well, you would think that the reason why someone would make such a call is when they want something sexually arousing and satisfying. But this is not always the case. There are those who are not one bit interested in sex. For example, there was one guy who just wanted to talk about getting his hair cut and the moment he sensed that the conversation was turning to be sexual, he would often get offended. This conversation would go on for long and several times in a week. This got annoying with time till I had to come up with an outline of how I will go about the conversation without repeating myself or hurting the poor guy. Eventually, he became my favorite, piece of cake. I could even talk to him while I was doing something else.




There are also men who like to play the role of the woman. In this case, the man wanted to act as a lesbian and me being his mother. This was creepy at first, and I was not good at it at all since I am very straight, if you know what I mean. But after doing some little research on how lesbians operate, I realized it was not all that different from what normal couples do. So when the clients called later, I was better prepared, and I could tell that by the end of the conversation, he was a happy man. I could tell that the line between reality and fantasy to him was thin, but that was up to him, I guess.

One guy, I remember who made my work time with him easy and fun was deaf. So we used to text for hours, and he was nice I often wondered why he would not just get a girl in life. He often asked about my day, my family and at one time he even got my child a present and a generous end of year tip. At times I felt sorry for him. We were already great friends, yet we had not even met face to face. This made me sad for him, but happy on the other hand since he made my work so much easier, which made me happy.

There are those guys who are just out to talk about the troubles in their lives, nothing about sex. They would pour out their heart to me, and I offered a listening ear. Well at least they did not want me to do anything weird, listening was not much of a big deal. But wait till the next time he called and I had forgotten some of the things he had said the last time, and then all hell would break loose. He would get so mad that I learn to write down everything he said so that I would not forget it the next time he called. He seemed stressed, and I guess he was just trying to look for somewhere to vent out his frustrations, but I made sure that was not with me.

Foot fetish guys would also call. All he wanted was to see my legs, and that would give him the satisfaction he needed. He wanted to see my legs when I am wearing sandals up to the thighs level. He would also ask to see me make some sexy movements, and he would seem to be happy.

However, there was one guy who scared me to death. He wanted to harm me over the phone because the things he wanted me to do were just plain crazy. This particular guy wanted me to pour vodka up my rectum which would potentially cause serious harm to me. The man was happy at the idea. I had to hang up since I could not take it anymore. The company was very understanding in this case, and they let it go.

Another one that got me thinking about my little girl was a guy who wanted me to act like a little 10-year-old child that he was having relations with. He was never interested with any adult, just children. This one was the most challenging since each time I acted like a child, my child would come into my mind. It was weird and tough at the same time, am just glad the call would last just a few minutes.

The guys who are crazy about gagging and vomiting often left me drained. By the end of the conversation I would end up feeling nauseated and my throat in pain. I would go straight to be after this caller.

I was not surprised when one guy called and wanted a lady with big boobs. But what caught my attention was how big he wanted them. He never seemed to get enough of what he could see; he just wanted me to stuff them more and more. It was hilarious looking at myself and what turned him on.

With time I got to learned that this is the kind of job, that takes resilience. Here I had to forget personal values, be able to have explicit sexual discussions and even at times go beyond what you think is not right. I cannot imagine the reaction my parents would have if they realized that I was into this kind of job, so I guess I will just have to keep that from them for now. Those who are afraid of taking on this kind of job can consider texting. There are those who want just to chat through texts for hours, and this will be easy for you. This is the opportunity for guys too.

The amount I make as a phone sex operator is very encouraging. I am thinking of joining video chats since the pay is better than this one. Well, I would have to wear what I say I am wearing, but I think it will be fun for me. The fact that those who are not affiliated with any company make a lot more is quite encouraging. Well, this I will have to think about it in the future, right now I am just not ready to start chasing after clients who refuse to pay for the services, but it is something that is defiantly worth trying.

What Are Men Looking For When Calling A Chatline?

De-stressing and unwinding comes in different forms and shapes and not all of us have the same approach. For many men, sex is a great way to de-stress both mind and body. It may not be always possible to get the right girl for that fabulous act perhaps on the rear of their car or even in their pickup trucks. Many men have weird and dirty ideas which they perhaps express best when chatting with a woman who also is the same wavelength. When they meet on a chat or exchange communication, there is no doubt that their phone sex reaches a crescendo to say the least.
Hence at the end of the day it would not be possible to straight jacket the reasons for which men and women find online chatting and telephonic sex a great way forward. Furthermore it would also not be possible to suggest that only a certain age group of people indulge in such adventures. There are many middle aged men and women who would like to be naughty and breakout from the monotony associated with daily life. Loneliness, a sense of being neglected by near and dear could also be reasons for such people to come out of their shell and try and experiment something new. Technology has well and truly been a great enabler and it has helped many such groups of people to overcome loneliness. While debates could be on regarding the morals and ethics behind it, there is no denying the fact that people would certainly like to indulge in fantasies. Deep down, most of us are naughty and would therefore try to explore what is often described by many to be the darker side of our lives. For many it is a bright patch in an otherwise dark and gloomy life where there is nothing much to look forward to.

What Are Women Looking For When They Call A Chatline?

Dating as it exists today is not the same as it existed, say perhaps in the 1990s. This is because of changes in behaviors, perceptions and outlook with each generation. Further technology has been a game changer and it has given a new meaning to love, romance, flirting, or even building serious relationship. Chatting today has become one of the simplest and easiest means of communication and it has extended much beyond exchange of pleasantries and good wishes. It would therefore be exciting to find out more about the new meaning of communication in this electronic age.

So Why Do Women Chat?

When people get into chatline it is often believed that they just look for some fun and would like to spend some time talking about sex. Is this the real truth, or do people get into phone dating for some other reasons? This is a million dollar question and finding the right answer could be intriguing and challenging in more ways than one. Those who offer sex chat, phone sex and other such services would perhaps be the best resources who could perhaps give the right answer to this question.

Just To Kill Time

Most of us today are busy with our jobs and businesses during the weekdays and when it comes to weekends, singles in particular find out ways to entertain themselves. While some would like to socialize, meet friends and perhaps go for a physical date, there are others who might find all the above too boring and monotonous. For such groups of people, choosing a suitable chatline is perhaps a great option. Many of them get hooked to strangers and it is usually the opposite sex. Girls would like to share the sexiest of details with the man at the other hand. It helps them to overcome boredom and also gives a chance for the sex hormones to remain in shape.

To Talk Dirty To Strangers

Taking a cue from the bra-burners who belonged to their parents’ and grandparents’ era, many young girls and even matured and married women, would like to be adventurous as far as expressing their sexual feelings are concerned. It has been found that many women and young teenage and adolescent girls would like to be downright dirty and horny when chatting with strangers, mostly women. However, there are some women who are more inclined to the same sex and they seek comfort and solace having phone chats with their own gender. There are many women who are addicted to it and they look forward with glee to such occasions.

Some Call Just To Play Pranks

There are also many men and perhaps even some men, who like to chat and get into telephonic conversation with strangers just for the heck of it. They would like to play some pranks. Therefore if you are somebody looking for genuine love through such phone dates, you better be aware of these pranksters who could break your heart without your being aware of it.

There Are Others Looking For Serious Relationships

It would be wrong to suggest that all those who are in the chat business are all horny and waiting to just jump into the bed. There are many men and women, who are looking for genuine love. For reasons not known, they may not have found the right person with whom with whom they can establish a relationship. In fact there are quite a few of them who find their mate through such dating sites and online phone chats. Though such instances may be few and far between, it cannot be entirely ruled out.

Economics of Sex: The Mating Market

The Economics of Sex: What Motivates Sexual Behavior in Men and Women

Based on a research paper entitled Sexual Economics: Sex as Female Resource for Social Exchange in Heterosexual Interactions by Roy F. Baumeister from Florida State University’s Psychology Department and Kathleen D. Vohs a faculty member of the University of British Columbia’s Marketing Division, this insightful animated short which was produced by the Austin Institute for the Study of Family and Culture explains the economic and social forces that motivate sexual intercourse in the modern society.

The animation compares an heterosexual society as a marketplace where sex is the currency. This explain the reasons why more and more people today aren’t getting married and why so many men aren’t willing to commit. According to the video, sex is an exchange where men and women alike are giving something of themselves to the other person.

Men naturally have a higher sex drive than women do. They initiate sex more often than what women do. Their whole motivation for having sex is to get the pleasure that comes from it. With women, their motivation for having sex is different. They do it to strengthen the commitment they have with the other person, to express and receive love and relationship security.

Women dream of finding someone they can spend the rest of their lives with. They want a man who is going to be there for them in their time of need. They want someone who is compassionate and understanding, yet willing to get down on one knee and propose when the time is right. But, it has to start somewhere, right?

Women have something that men want. This means that men are going to have to work hard to get the woman of their dreams to have sex with them. For some women, it might only take a few drinks. However, other women might want to date for a few months before having sex with a man. Then, there are those who want to wait until they are married before consummating the relationship. Every woman is different, just like every relationship is different.

Marriage is a major step toward something special that isn’t shared with just anyone. It’s a step toward a life together that starts with being intimate. Unfortunately, many men are simply interested in having sex, while women are interested in getting married. This leads to a split dating market. Because of this, many are heading online and engaging in relationships with someone who shares in their interests and desires.

Since there are so many women out there for men to choose from, the market value of sex isn’t as high as what it used to be. If more women were to refrain from having sex and make the men work for it, it could lead to fewer pre-marital partners, greater male investments, longer relationships, shorter co-habitations and more marriages.

This is especially evident on dating chatlines and phone sex services which offer men and women the chance to find someone who is interested in the same things they are. However, there is a big difference between how men and women greet the opposite sex. Women want to find that special someone that they can commit to for years to come, while men are often just looking for someone that they can go out, have a good time and connect on an intimate level with.

Bathtub Scene Adobe Phone Sex Line

1-900-U-Update: Adobe’s Latest Promo Urges Photoshop Users to Update

There’s a hot new update for Photoshop. Adobe’s latest ad is a spoof on the various phone sex advertisements that run on television during the wee hours of the morning. Taking a cue from the numerous phone sex TV adverts that plague national television and internet, Adobe designed an advertisement that replicates the tone as well as the feel of these cheeky ads. Kellogg’s used a similar strategy to promote cereal on their midnight spooning campaign in Australia. A sensuous voice details out the various new features of the new version of Photoshop against the backdrop of salacious lighting and titillating music. Visuals that remind one of a phone sex advertisement play one after the other on your screen. Double-meaning phrases that insinuate sexual encounters over the phone make the script of this advertisement even more interesting.

Photoshop Update Hotline Promo

However, it looks like Adobe was not satisfied with the idea of surprising its user with a one-of-a-kind video. This is precisely why the company went ahead and created an accompanying website — 1-900-U-UPDATE.com — to which users are directed to in the video. The website informs users about the new features that have been added to Photoshop, but it does so in the most interesting way. The saucy yet funny pictures make it evident that the inspiration for this website came from one of those cheesy sex websites that were so famous during the 90s.

Screenshot of Adobe's 1-900-U-UPDATE.com Phone Sex Parody Website

The marketing and creative team at Adobe should be applauded for coming up with an idea like this. Ever since the ad hit the internet, it has become one of the most discussed topics. People simply cannot stop talking about it — even those who do not use Photoshop are discussing Adobe and its latest advertisement.

At a time when marketing gimmicks have become routine, Adobe recently came up with something very special to entice its users. With its latest internet ad, the American multinational also proved why it is one of the biggest names in the field of digital experiences.

Most companies use traditional methods like sending push, emails or in-app notifications to notify users about an update. However, Adobe went an extra step and created an advertisement to notify users about its latest Photoshop update.

Update: Adobe recently took down this advertisement as well as the website attached to it. The company hasn’t released any official statement about why it decided to take such an action. Perhaps, the whole intention behind this advertisement was to garner short-term intention. Or, it is also possible that Adobe does not want to create any controversy by offending any people or community. Whatever the case maybe, Adobe has already successfully achieved what it set out to achieve: attention.
