ASMR stands for "autonomous sensory meridian response" and it's purpose is to relax people by auditory or visual triggers. Along with feelings of calmness one might experience "brain orgasms" or "tingles" which are shiver-like reflexes that are usually noticeable in ones head/neck or spine.
It's not uncommon for people to just assume it's a sexual thing because "anything with a cute girl must be sexual!" especially on youtube. Now, does sexual ASMR exist? Of course. But I find it silly to group together all ASMR in the sexual category because that is simply not true nor fair.
ASMR is innocent and you should be able to enjoy it without the fear of being judged. ASMR helps millions of people worldwide and there's no shame in watching/listening to ASMR content.
