Being stranded on a cruise ship during a global health crisis involves a lot of waiting around. As bouts of extreme fear and anxiety gradually pass, it’s likely that, at some point, an overwhelming horniness will set in.
It seems this exact conversation was had in a Miami boardroom on Monday (February 10), namely at the headquarters of adult entertainment website CamSoda, which has offered free porn tokens to people on the quarantined coronavirus cruise ship. According to Fox Business, passengers have been promised full complimentary access to the site’s webcam services to help them pass the time at sea.
“They are not only dealing with the fear of infection, which is terrifying, but boredom,” CamSoda’s vice president Daryn Parker said in a press release. “We like cruises just as much as the next guy, but without activities or human interaction, the boredom must be crippling.”
“In an effort to keep their minds off of the coronavirus and to help with the boredom, we’re offering passengers and crews the ability to have fun in a safe and controlled environment with camming,” he continued.
The offer was extended to some 7,300 passengers stranded on the Diamond Princess and World Dream cruise-ships, although all 1,800 onboard the World Dream have since been given the all clear and were released on Sunday.
Passengers and crew on the Diamond Princess however remain docked in a Japanese port, with 70 confirmed cases of the coronavirus among the 3,500 on board. It is unclear how much longer they will remain under lockdown, but they have a way to entertain themselves for now at least.
