14 Best Gay Cam Sites: Live Male Webcam Shows, Free & Paid

Updated on:

Looking for the hottest gay cam sites? Want to watch live sex shows with male models?

Well… the problem with gay-only cam sites is finding one where you can empty your nuts without emptying your wallet, and one where you’re not inundated with cam girls competing for the attention (no disrespect, ladies!).

Yes, it’s true: the biggest cam sites offer girls, guys, trans models and couples, but they are invariably dominated by female cams, and that’s not a popular sell for gay guys. The good news is there are plenty of cam sites offering a man-to-man-only service, if you know where to look.

In our guide below, we introduce you to the 14 best sites for live gay cams in 2023: including mixed-gender cam sites and specialist male-only camming platforms. From Chaturbate to LiveJasmin, Streamen to Camera Boys, these platforms have been customized and streamlined so that every gay man can find his dream performer.

We’ll discover the best live gay cam sites, as well as which ones host the most popular models, which have the most variety, and how their pricing compares. From twinks, pups and jocks to bears, cubs and chubs – we give you the best options for live male webcams that’ll keep you coming back for more…

Let’s get started!

What Are The Best Gay Cam Sites In 2023?

Best gay cam sites

The top-rated gay cam sites in 2023 are:

  1. Streamen
  2. Camera Boys
  3. DickShow
  4. Chaturbate
  5. StripChat
  6. BongaCams
  7. Flirt4Free
  8. SuperMen
  9. Jizz Roulette
  10. XLoveGay
  11. CamSoda
  12. Cam4
  13. LiveMuscleShow
  14. JerkMate

We’ve chosen these popular gay webcam sites based on several key factors:

  • Guys vs Girls. Is the site male-only or mixed?
  • The level of interaction. Are there private shows? Can you go cam-to-cam?
  • Is it worldwide? The language options, countries, regions and location variety.
  • Categories. How varied are the models? Is it easy to search?
  • The numbers. How many registered male models? How many are online?
  • Is it safe? Spam, adverts, clutter and confusion.
  • Registration and access. How easy is it to get to the guys?
  • Costs. Because ‘free’ doesn’t always mean free.

Armed with this knowledge, you can decide which male-only cam site is best for your beating-off needs.

Let’s take a closer look at each of the top sites for live gay cams:

1. Streamen

https://streamen.com

Streamen live male cams

Streamen is one of the most popular gay cam sites on the web, and one of the few that is dedicated exclusively to men.

Pretty much all of the best gay cam sites out there are powered by a mainstream video chat platform and the eagle-eyed among you will notice that this site is based on the popular Streamate brand.

Streamen uses the same database that powers other white-label live gay cam sites (like GayFreeFun). For our viewing purposes, these sites are basically the same thing with different window dressing.

The guys on Streamen are located all over the world, although it can be fiddly to narrow down the search to a specific region. When you filter, you’ll see the main guys at the top, and then a ‘You might also like these performers’ list. This invariably comes up with 200+ random models, so it isn’t the best feature. However, you can also mix and match your regional selection, which is useful if you’re looking for men from a certain country.

As the Streamen guys are worldwide, many of them speak more than one language. Their languages are displayed with their stats on their individual pages, but you can also filter by:

  • German
  • English
  • Spanish
  • French
  • Italian
  • Swedish
  • Portuguese
  • Dutch
  • Norwegian

One thing Streamen doesn’t have is an obvious list of gay ‘types.’ There is no drop-down filter for twink, jock, bear, etc. What you have instead is the category pages list and a keyword search box.

Streamen doesn’t show off the number of registered male models, though it has been estimated at over 9,000. This doesn’t mean they’ll all be online at the same time. Even cam models have to sleep! However, you can expect to find over 200 performers online at most times.

And the good news? Those male cams are exceptionally high quality. The cams on Streamen are consistently high-quality with crisp feeds, HD shows and clear audio.

Streamen offers you some free viewing before you have to buy credits to spend on the good stuff: private shows and tips.

That’s pretty standard in the live cam world.

Streamen is a premium gay cam site and the public chat rooms are really just a tease for what goes on behind closed doors. So don’t expect to be blown away by performers stripping naked or going solo for free.

However, when paying for a live show, take note: it’s easy to overspend. There is no session timer, and as models set their own rates, you need to check how many pre-paid credits you’re likely to use before you go private.

Tip Vibe and Gold Shows are popular on Streamen; the former is a cam broadcast where the male model has an interactive sex toy, and the latter is a ticketed group performance. 

These Gold Shows offer audiences a much cheaper way to see some male action and tickets can be sold for as little as $1 per minute – compared to private chats which generally start at $2.25 per minute, but can go up to $20 per minute. Ouch.

Streamen offers a smooth interface, a variety of good search options and a range of hot guys from all over the globe. It’s not the largest gay chat and cam site out there, but it is one of the few that remains 100% male-only.

2. Camera Boys

https://www.cameraboys.com

CameraBoys gay web cam site

Camera Boys is a white-label version of LiveJasmin’s male cams. You can find the same male models on LiveJasmin, but by heading straight to Camera Boys, you can avoid having to sift through the female models (who often hog all the featured spots).

That’s the first plus point. Others are its desktop and mobile-suitable interface, its affordable prices, and the fact it has a decent number of registered models. You can dip in to free shows if you wish, or register for a free account, but you will need to upgrade and pay to access the premium content.

And once again, there is no session timer on your chats, so it is easy to get carried away and spend more than you realise…

The LiveJasmin network is considered the Rolls Royce of live streaming platforms and its reflected in the calibre of live sex shows that you will find on its white-labels, including Camera Boys.

The models here are all broadcasting HD quality streams and you won’t find any amateurish or low-quality feeds. Plus, these guys all meet a minimum standard in the looks department, by which we mean they are all pretty fine to gawp at.

There are 31 categories of model, and the list holds the standard categories, including:

  • Asian
  • Big Cock
  • Blonde
  • Ebony
  • Teen 18+
  • White

You can also search the male models by the type of shows they offer:

  • Free chat
  • Hot deal (guys offering special rates)
  • Private chat
  • VIP show (guys offering special shows)

It’s worth noting that the models at Cameras Boys accurately tag themselves; they don’t add unnecessary tags hoping for more hits, so the site is much ‘cleaner’ than Wild West platforms like Chaturbate.

The exact number of registered models isn’t shown on Camera Boys, but is put at ‘thousands’ with between 60 and 150 guys live at any one time. It depends on where you are and the time of day where they are. Remember: the site is using LiveJasmin’s database, and LJ is a big fish. There’s no shortage of live gay cams here.

On the index page, the models’ thumbnails carry a red ‘Live’ sticker when they are available. Even when they’re away, some will tell you they are available to be called, which you can do at 2.99 credits per minute. You’ll need to be logged in to wake them up and get them live on cam, though.

As a premium model site, you don’t get a lot for free with Camera Boys as the performers really only make money here if you pay to go private with them. 

This is because they are restricted to what they can do in public chat rooms. Unlike Chaturbate where guys can jerk off on screen during free chat, these Camera Boys can only do this behind closed doors — which is one of the selling points if you prefer your action to be exclusive and/or private.

Starting as low as $0.98/minute and going up to $9.99+ per minute the models price their chat rooms individually with the average being around $4-$5/minute.

As a loyalty incentive, Camera Boys runs ‘Club Elite’ where the more credits you spend, the more your rank increases, from Crush to Casanova. The higher you go, the more your ‘multiplier’ adds to your points.

Ultimately, Camera Boys is a jazzed up all-male version of LiveJasmin. It’s great for super HD cam shows and private gay chat with some of the web’s most polished male performers.

3. DickShow

https://www.dickshow.com

DickShow live gay cam site

DickShow is another classic example of a white-label cam site adding some male-only spice to LiveJasmin’s broader offering. It’s the same as Camera Boys, but with a slightly different presentation. 

As with Camera Boys, you can head straight to the guys, and there is no female-model distraction. The homepages look similar, but DickShow has a set of ‘Featured’ headings for live sex shows and live video calls with select male performers. 

As both sites use the same database of models, there are the same number of guys. And they’ll be online at the same time. If you speak to these guys, they won’t actually know which site you’re using since they are simultaneously broadcasting to all of the white-label live gay cam sites powered by LiveJasmin.

One obvious and handy difference is the left menu at DickShow carries a History function, so you can see where you’ve been (and who you’ve been chatting to). Both sites offer a favourites collection and a messaging service.

DickShow uses navigation tags, which appear to be accurately assigned to each performer. It’s not always clear cut though. If you click ‘Twink’, for example, it’s pretty obvious that you’re looking at a twink’s profile. If you click on ‘Cosplay’ though, the guys may not necessarily be dressed up and ready to play. You can always use the free text chat or messaging service to ask what they are willing to do and when.

There are a couple of differences in the side menu too. DickShow gives you ‘Willingness’ as its filter criteria for what the guys will do. It’s useful for filtering out the non-starters.

DickShow credits are priced the same as Camera Boys and thus, compare favourably to other major gay cam sites. Just like Camera Boys, they start as low as $0.98/minute and go up to $9.99+ per minute. The average for a private gay cam show is around $4-$5/minute.

Apart from a few layout differences (and the fact that DickShow didn’t seem to have a keyword search box), there’s not much to choose between Camera Boys and DickShow… or indeed, LiveJasmin.

4. Chaturbate

https://chaturbate.com/male-cams/

Chaturbate male cams

Now, the big guns enter the stage.

Surely you’ve heard of Chaturbate? It’s up there with LiveJasmin as one of the biggest and most well-known chat and cam sites online. It plays host to several white-label sites, most notably Cam Dudes in the gay world, and it is massive.

If you’re looking for live gay webcams, you’d be crazy to ignore the biggest free cam site of them all.

Chaturbate is a thriving metropolis of sex cams. Even though it’s not specifically targeted at gay cam shows, you’ll still find more amateur male models here than on any of the dedicated gay cam sites. That’s because it relies on a tipping payment model where the shows are effectively crowdsourced to the watching audience.

If you want to find a bunch of free gay sex cams with explicit action — full nudity, live fucking — then you can tune in to one of the hundreds of male shows that are airing at any given time.

It’s got hunks, twinks, bears, musclemen… gay couples… pretty much every sex show you can imagine.

The downside is that the rooms are notoriously crowded and impersonal. We wouldn’t recommend Chaturbate if you are looking for a private cam-to-cam show. But if you just want to browse and perv on a bunch of horny naked men, it’s certainly a fruitful adventure…

Of course, Chaturbate is not 100% gay. It features women, men, couples and trans models. On our last visit, we found 1,493 live male cams bidding for your attention, which is far and beyond any of the other live gay webcam sites on this list.

It’s not easy to find what you want at Chaturbate, but when you find it, you’ll be happily jerking to a live model for a reasonable price. 

Another annoying thing: there is no navigation menu. That might sound a bit strange in this day and age, but it’s true. What you have are simple tabs leading to the models sorted by gender, a page of tags showing you how many guys are in each chat room, how many rooms there are, and a shortlist of the top rooms. 

Rooms are what we’d call profile pages; the place where you find the text chat and video feed.

If you were wondering what the most popular gay room tags are at Chaturbate, the top five look like this:

#TagAverage ViewersAverage Number of Live Rooms
Cum9,186389
Big Cock7,348423
Lovense5,757294
Muscle5,551232
Young5,349236

Chaturbate’s male models do a good job of accurately advertising themselves with their hashtags, though there is often some crossover. You might find a #muscle guy is also #submissive, and head to his room to find he’s preparing for a live cam #dildo party. So, expect some hit-and-miss results now and then.

The cost of tokens is set at a standard rate, but it’s up to each model how much they charge. The average cost of private chat at Chaturbate is $2.87 per minute, so around 25 tokens. Some guys charge as little as $0.57 per minute, while others charge much more.

How much you tip is up to you. The standard/bottom rate is 25 tokens, but you can change that depending on how generous you feel.

Chaturbate is one of the leaders in sex cam and adult chat. However, it’s not 100% geared to the gay user and the rooms hit-and-miss. The prices are standard, but the site is incredibly busy, meaning it may take a while to find the right male performer to tick all your boxes.

See more in our detailed Chaturbate walkthrough.

5. StripChat

https://stripchat.com/men

StripChat Guys live

StripChat is one of the fastest growing cam sites in the world. It has a decent selection of gay male cams, however they are tucked away when you first visit the site.

On average, you will find over 6,600 live models, although that number is more weighted towards cam girls than guys. At any one time, you can expect to find around 1,900 live shows taking place, and these are listed by show format. The most popular is usually Cam2Cam, closely followed by ‘recordable privates.’

StripChat keeps its gay homepage updated with nice live thumbnails that give a good sample of what is going on in each room. It has a functional navigation system, and unlike Chaturbate, doesn’t rely on hashtags for getting around.

StripChat has a fresher interface than Chaturbate, and is more akin to the glossier LiveJasmin brands, though it goes into more detail with model selection. The search and sort options on StripChat are amazing, and include a list of what guys will do on request. This can save you a lot of time if you know exactly what you want to see.

The guys at StripChat come from 58 different countries and you can search by region. It is up to the models to state what languages they speak and write in. Each thumbnail comes with a little country flag which is a nice addition for sorting performers by country. It’s a broad mix though. You’ll find models from all over the world.

StripChat is also famous for being one of the few cam sites to offer VR sex cams.

If you have a VR headset, you can enter sex chat rooms and immerse yourself in a fully-virtual environment. Unfortunately, the VR cams are almost exclusively dominated by girls. Hopefully some male performers will take up this interactive option over the coming months…

See more in our detailed StripChat walkthrough.

6. BongaCams

https://bongacams.com/male

BOngaCams males on webcam

BongaCams is another mainstream cam site with a large European audience, although it also boasts plenty of gay cam shows from North America and Asia, too.

All visitors to the site are immediately given a random username after joining a live cam stream. From there, you can simply lurk in stealth mode, start chatting, or reach in to your pocket if you want to tip tokens.

Sometimes, in particularly active rooms, you will get lucky and find other users are generously tipping away already, so you can enjoy what is essential a free gay cam show, but with explicit material and no filters. Other times, in quieter rooms, it can be slow going.

BongaCams is another of the massive databases that other sites use to white-label their own male-targeted cam platforms. Some notable white-labels peddling the BongaCams database include LiveGayWebcams.xxx, and Go XXX Cams.

When BongaCams started in 2012, it took a while to gain popularity, but it’s now comparable with StripChat and Cam4 for market-share. Unfortunately the overall site experience is affected by some persistent ads that seem to follow you around the site. There are various popups and distractions that take away from the live viewing experience.

At any one time, you can expect to find between 1,500 and 2,000 models online. Normally around 10-15% of these cams will belong to male performers — and yes, many of the guys are based in Europe.

Once you are in the Male Cam section, you get a great user interface, some very detailed profiles, lots of tempting incentives to buy more tokens, and cams up to 4K HD. You don’t get as much choice of models as on other cam sites, but there’s something about BongaCams which gives you a sense of fun and freedom.

BongaCams suffers from pop-ups and adverts (you’ll need to upgrade to remove them), but if you can ignore those, you find a decent number of fresh hunky models you won’t find elsewhere.

See more in our detailed BongaCams walkthrough.

7. Flirt4Free

https://www.flirt4free.com/live/guys/

Flirt4Free men on live cam

Flirt4Free is another of the most well-known live sex cam sites. It’s not 100% gay, but it has a prominent male cam section that has spawned many other white-label sites that tap in to the same database. The most notable of these is JockMenLive.

To chat to the guys at Flirt4Free, you need to find the drop-down ‘Live Girls Cams’ and change it to ‘Live Guys Cams.’ Once inside, you’ll find good things and not-so-good things.

On the plus side, Flirt4Free has industry-leading cam quality, a user-friendly interface, and plenty of pornstars as well as highly-seasoned amateurs. The site carries porn-company channels where you can interact with models from BelAmi, CockyBoys and Corbin Fisher.

Downers, though, include: the gay cams area is only one part of a three-part cam site where the main thrust is the straight cams. While there are thousands of registered models, the average online at any one time is les than 200 for the gay cam section. And you can’t see any real action without entering a private show.

Flirt4Free guys come from all over the world, but it’s not that easy to find them by location. The drop-down category list has some regional headings, but there is no ‘search by country/language’ function, although you can change the site’s text language with a choice of ten mostly European languages. 

Flirt4Free offers some standard and non-standard extra features most of which are available only in exchange for credits. For example, there are over 650 recorded shows and videos priced between 25 and 400+ credits each. The site has competitions for the Flirt of the Month and Year, and the Freshest Face of the Month. There is also a Hall of Fame.

What sets Flirt4Free apart from the competition is its dedication to extremely high quality cams. These aren’t just amateur cam models. The platform is known for hiring the best of the best, including fully fledged male porn stars. If you’re sicking of wasting your time on cam models who don’t really know how to please, Flirt4Free is well worth a try.

See more in our detailed Flirt4Free walkthrough.

8. SuperMen

https://www.supermen.com

SuperMen Gay Cams

SuperMen claims to have a database of 62 million registered members, which is a quite astonishing number for a gay webcams platform. Of course, most of those are viewers rather than models, but you’ll still find a nice mix of gay cams on what is undoubtedly one of the sleeker sites on our list.

SuperMen is a white-label version of IMLive’s male cams, which explains the gigantic database. This gay white-label cam site doesn’t host a huge number of guys, but it still offers a highly useable interface, free content, and guys from all over who are willing to do all kinds of things for the paying customer.

SuperMen hosts a ribbon with some popular categories of male cams to choose from, i.e., Twink, Gay Couples, New Models, and Muscle. There is also a larger category list option with seven headings for further filtering:

  • Age: Teen to mature 40 +
  • Ethnicity: White, Latin, Other.
  • Boyd Type: Twink, Athletic, Chubby, Muscle, Bears.
  • Fetish. Anal, Foor fetish, Outfits, Smoking.
  • Hair colour: Black, Brown, Blond, White.
  • Dick: Medium, Big, Huge, Cut, Uncut.
  • Role: Top, Versatile, Bottom

Beyond the standard free membership, you have a choice of paid-for members’ perks from Bronze to VIP. These give you free credits in rising increments and access to video content, including pornstar live shows.

Models set their own per-minute pricing, and prices range from $1.15 upwards, with an average around $2.93 per minute.

It’s easy to add to your credit account as you go, and SuperMen uses standard payment methods: credit cards, PayPal, crypto, gift cards, and wire transfers.

Supermen is not known as being a free gay cam site. You’ll need to go private to enjoy the best of the action.

One thing we can say though… the quality of the streams is excellent. The camera quality is really good and the majority of the performers are well versed in giving you exactly what you want.

9. Jizz Roulette

https://www.jizzroulettelive.org

Jizz Roulette gay chat cams

Jizz Roulette is a dirty play on the legendary Chat Roulette concept, a site which brought random video chat to the masses. Back on Chat Roulette, it was commonplace to cycle through random cams (with random matchmaking) and land on streams of guys showing off their dicks. Well, now you can do it with full consent!

JizzRoulette is actually the gay version of the straight cam site, SlutRoulette. It is one of several white-label sites operated by ACF Technology, which means there are loads of others out there with the same models and look, but under different names. JizzRoulette is similar to Chaturbate, BongaCams and CamSoda, so if you’ve visited them, you will already know your way around.

Unlike those famous cam sites, Jizz Roulette has a unique swipe-style matchmaking system where you are randomly paired with a male model as he broadcasts his show. It’s a one-way system, so you don’t have to worry about your own camera being on show. If you like what you see, you can stay and get chatting, paying to take things further if you so wish.

If you don’t like what you see? Jizz Roulette has plenty more fish in the sea. Or dicks to see.

The cost per minute is set by each model, so prices vary, but you can expect prices to range from $0.90 to $8.99 per minute, with the rule of thumb being: the more private the show, the more you will pay.

Some shows become live when a group of users contribute to a target and that target is reached, so these costs will also vary. You can add credits to your account via credit card or PayPal.

Overall, the quality of cams is decent with a large majority being in crystal clear HD. You can go cam-to-cam if you are on a PC or Mac, but unfortunately the option is not yet available on mobile devices.

All in all, though, the cost of using Jizz Roulette matches up to other sites such as CameraBoys. This is because it is a white-label site, so you may well have met these guys before. However, there is something more personal about Jizz Roulette and the random matchmaking gimmick is a fun twist.

10. XLoveGay

https://xlovegay.com

XLoveGay live shows

When a gay cam site advertises ‘Chat with Homosexual couples’, you might be wondering just how clued in the owners are. Not someone up on queer speak, perhaps, but actually, XLoveGay is a decent gay cam site that attracts a lot of Latino performers. It’s not the largest platform in the universe, but it has some endearing features and makes a refreshing change from the giant platforms like LiveJasmin and Chaturbate.

XLoveGay has had a makeover in recent months, and the new interface looks slicker and neater than its predecessor — it’s certainly easy to use.

Rollover thumbnails on the homepage give you clips from models’ previous sessions, and a click takes you to their main profile page. Many of these are basic, with little or no information. You have the free public chat box on one side, and the show streaming on the other.

Now, here’s the thing. XLoveGay hosts one hell of a long page of models. There are no numbered index pages, just one endless scrolling page showing images of the models, most of whom are offline. It’s not a stretch to imagine that many of these guys no longer perform on the site, but you’d be waiting a long time to find out for sure.

Out of an estimated 16,000+ profiles, only 20 male models were online when we last visited. The lack of active models is not the only issue: 

  • Some models don’t have a front-page profile shot.
  • Some of the shots and sample live cam recordings are very low quality.
  • Not all of the models put up a profile description

It’s free to register at XLoveGay, and its pay-per-minute setup is slightly different to the major cam sites.

You buy credits at set prices, and each model then charges his own amount of Euros per minute. So, you can’t say a ten-minute chat will cost 10 credits, it varies massively per model. That’s another thing; the prices are in Euros, so watch out for conversion rates.

This ties in with the variety of models, too. They are mostly Latino or European.

XLoveGay needs a bit of love. It’s had a new makeover, the navigation system is nifty, and there are plenty of nice features… but it’s lacking in, well… active male models.

11. CamSoda

https://www.camsoda.com/tag/male-cams

CamSoda queer cam shows

CamSoda is a rapidly growing cam site with several white-label platforms using its database, the most notable being CamWithHim. It hosts female and male models, amateurs and professionals.

You choose your models from Girls, Guys and Trans before entering the site, but even if you choose Guys, you will still see adverts for credits to the girlie section and other straight porn sites.

CamSoda is known for having a user-friendly interface and a good community feel. It is a freemium site, like Chaturbate or MyFreeCams, giving plenty of free viewing, but with a selection of private shows priced in the mid to expensive range.

The first thing to note is that there are not that many guys online, though this may vary according to the time of day. Those that are featured have open rooms, so you can drop in, see what’s happening in the free public chat and join in with messaging. Some have free pics and vids to view, but many do not.

To fully interact, you will need to register, and load up credits to spend on private shows and Cam2Cam sessions.

Cam Soda has a great-looking navigation system in terms of options, but the results are a mixed bag.

When looking for male models, you will also find listings for girls, and the sub-niche list includes BBW, Milfs and other straight terms. It is not a 100% gay/male setup, and the main thrust of the site is the female section. This leaks into the male-only area.

CamSoda models are an international bunch, and there are thousands of guys registered as models. However, there are not many guys online at any one time (average 40 to 50), and it’s hit and miss as to whether you’ll find who you’re looking for. However, there is an excellent notifications system that lets you know when your favourite model has come online. We also like that the thumbnails on the index page tell you who is new to the site (and likely eager to impress…)

If you’re looking for a modern cam site with glossy live thumbnails and plenty of free action, you’ll enjoy CamSoda. But the site is in dire need of a dedicated male-only homepage, or at least a tagging system that accurately separates the gay-male features from the straight part of the platform.

See more in our detailed CamSoda walkthrough.

12. Cam4

https://www.cam4.com/male

Cam4's trending male sex cams

Cam4 is considered a mainstream cam site, but it boasts the unique appeal that it has more cam guys than cam girls. Naturally this makes it a prime hunting ground for anybody looking to indulge in hot male action, even if the model could be straight, bisexual or gay. 

Does it really matter?!

Another thing that sets apart the gay sex shows on Cam4 is the demographics of the audience. Cam4 is run by an Irish company and has a large marketing presence in Europe. It is particularly well-known in Germany, and other German-speaking countries.

Cam4 offers mainly amateur cam guys with a few professional porn guys preferring it over the larger sites. The guys are a good mix of twinks, daddies, bears and hunks, and you’re able to filter between female and trans models, although the gay section remains separate and has its own search and sort functions.

Cam4 has been online since the early 2000s and clearly has this game down to a fine art. It’s a mid-range option for private sex video chats, with a monthly subscription to boost the benefits of its pay-per-view camming.

Our first impression of Cam4 was that it is way more interactive than most cam sites, and that is partially true. There are plenty of search and sort functions, and most models engage in group chats and run free streams while waiting for a private punter. You can send messages and connect with other users with comments and chat, but you need to be registered if you want to do more than simply cruise the database.

Apart from a large number of fresh and new models, navigation is where Cam4 really shines. The top menu lets you toggle between guys/girls/couples and all. The Explore drop-down takes you directly to trending tags, the token shop, and other generic site features.

Models are shown with rollover video clips, their pages contain detailed profiles (when they choose to add the info), and many have free pics and vids for registered users. Anything above and beyond that, you will have to pay for.

Prices at Cam4 range from a low $1.20 per minute to a pretty outrageous $24.00 per minute. The average, though, is around $1.50 to $2.00.

Cam4 offers a viable alternative to CamSoda, with more male models, a system that accurately differentiates between male and female models, and an uncluttered navigation system. Cam4 also runs a fun YouTube channel with some interesting perspective on what it’s like to be a live cam guy.

See more in our detailed Cam4 walkthrough.

13. LiveMuscleShow

https://www.livemuscleshow.com

Live Muscle Show

LiveMuscleShow is a specialist gay sex cam site serving up guys with muscles, bodybuilders and hunks. It’s a no-twink-zone, if you like, and puts you directly in touch with bicep boys and Adonises with adorable abs.

An independent cam site platform, Live Muscle Show is owned and operated by the Miami-based firm, Dynamite Studios International. The site works differently to any of the other platforms in the space, electing to feature only models who are athletic, stacked and shamelessly oversized.

From former college wrestlers and professional Strongmen to professional trainers and bouncers… this is not just a platform for casual gym bunnies.

Hit the homepage and you will find a wall of excellent body shots showing you guys posing clothed (but bulging in all the right places). A simple menu shows you who is online, who is new, as well as links to their videos and photos. 

There are only a few hundred registered models, and just a dozen or so online at any one time, but this specialist cam site is popular with fans across North America and Europe. 

In fact, you can find several nationalities represented here and not just All-American bodybuilders. From Russian and Romanian muscle men to Nigerian, Filipino and Colombian weight-lifters, there’s a bountiful supply of rippling bodies to drool over.

Currently, there are 526 private gay porn videos available to buy where the guys pose naked or semi-nude, which typically cost $25.00 on average for a five-minute video. There are also various photo galleries for sale, from $5.00 to $20.00, for between one and eight images per set.

A special feature of LiveMuscleShow is the ‘book a date’ function. If a model is in a private show, you can simply book him for another time. You then have an appointment diary of gay cam to cam in the top menu that is automatically set to your local time zone.

Private chat rates are set by each performer and typically range between $4.99 and $9.99 per minute. It’s a good idea to check beforehand and make sure you have enough credits as this is certainly not the cheapest of male cam websites on our list.

LiveMuscleShow gives you something different: studly studs and bodybuilders who are willing to chat one-to-one in private shows. It’s a small site serving a niche segment of the live gay cams market — one to check out if you like your men built like absolute trucks.

14. Jerkmate

Gay webcams on Jerkmate male2male

Jerkmate is one of the fastest growing cam sites in the world. No doubt powered by the crap ton of video adverts that we’re bombarded with whenever we visit our favorite tube sites…

With that growth comes unparalleled choice.

Jerkmate is another mixed-gender site where you need to filter the girls from the guys. It’s easy to do under the Live Sex Cams drop-down, where you select ‘Guys.’

So, who are the Jerkmate guys, and will they become your jerking mates?

Well, with over 5,600 guys on their books when we visited (in August 2023), there’s bound to be someone to tickle your fancy, especially if you like younger guys. From the 5,600+ models, 5,181 of them are in the Young (18+) category.

However, Jerkmate also has more of its fair share of older guys, and hosts many Latino models.

Registration is free. The price you pay, after entering your details, is to be sent to a premium access page where some babe is rubbing her boobs and licking her lips, which can be off-putting if you’re here for the men. 

As is trying to go further without registering a credit card. You can’t. You will need to sign up for the premium service to continue, although you don’t actually pay anything. This is done to make it easier for you to buy credits later and to prove you are over 18. It’s a pain, but that’s just how it is.

Once registered, you can buy Jerkmate Gold tokens at $1.00 each. Models charge their own amounts for shows, and you can tip as generously as you want. With most guys charging average prices per minute, you’ve got a standard cam site at standard rates, but be aware that some models charge up to $4.99 per minute.

Jerkmate does a fantastic job of filtering the best broadcasts in a way that is easy to navigate. The algorithm has a knack for serving up male cams that are similar to the ones you’ve already seen and interacted with.

It’s a modern cam site that plays in to addictive hooks popularised by apps like Tinder. You can choose to swipe through cams one at a time, or browse from a list. The site offers a much more personalised experienced than the free gay cam site options like Chaturbate. It’s almost entirely catered towards private shows and one-on-one dirty chat. Don’t expect to get much for free on JerkMate, except another blast of their ads…

Are There Any Specialist Gay Cam Sites? 

Yes, but not many.

It takes a lot of time and money to set up a solo, gay-dedicated live cam site, so most of the gay-themed sites are actually white-label spin-offs from “straight” cam brands: like Streamate, LiveJasmin, Chaturbate or BongaCams.

Many gay porn sites also advertise their own adult webcams, but surprise surprise: these are also white-labelled from the larger databases. When you’re in a gay porn site’s members’ area, you might see ‘Live Cams’ in the menu. On the face of it, it looks like an independent cam site, but in reality, it’s just an imported version of Chaturbate or LiveJasmin, given a new lick of paint.

Even top-ranking studios and sites put their models on other people’s cam sites. Bel Ami, for example, known for its award-winning European twink porn, uses a third-party cam site for its models’ live cam appearances.

Of the 14 gay cam websites on our list, Live Muscle Show comes closest to being its own, independent platform.

However, Streamen is one of the few sites that was founded by and remains dedicated to gay men. It’s more general than Live Muscle Show and has models from more niches, and it’s our top pick for all-gay, no-nonsense, specialist gay cam sites.

Most sites advertised as ‘Live Gay Cams’ are either white-label versions of larger, generic cam sites, or the gay section of one of those sites under a different name. As a result, many male cam sites hold the same models and work in exactly the same way, as you can see below in our comparison of the live models on Streamen vs GayFreeFun:

Gay white label cam sites

To summarise:

  1. Streamen is the same as GayFreeFun
  2. DickShow is the same as Camera Boys, which is actually LiveJasmin’s male cam section
  3. BongaCams is the same as LiveGayWebcams.xxx, Go XXX Cams, and others
  4. Flirt4Free is the seed from which has grown JockMenLive.com and more
  5. SuperMen is ImLive’s male cam section
  6. JizzRoulette is more or less the same as Chaturbate, BongaCams and CamSoda

The list goes on.

Are There Any Gay Chat Roulette Sites?

Gay sex roulette cams

Chat roulette sites are a novel way of chatting to guys, cam-to-cam, without the performative aspect that comes from using a traditional adult cam site.

Let’s say you’ve landed on Chaturbate and you’re faced with a wall of 1,240 models. Who do you choose? And how do you know the show will be worth your time?

Okay, so you can use filters, and you may already have a good idea of what you’re looking for, but can you spin the wheel and join a random cam-to-cam chat where 100% of the attention will be on you? Nope.

Well, you can if you visit a sex chat roulette site like Flingster.

Flingster, and similar sites, are all about matching you up with a random stranger for free video chat. Free to join, you simply state what kind of chat you are looking for (sex, no sex, straight, gay), and then metaphorically spin the wheel. You are then placed into a cam session with your random selection, and what happens after that is up to you.

It’s not necessarily sex chat, dick-flashing or porno-style Cam2Cam, but it’s a way of meeting cute guys who are into random cam encounters with complete strangers. Naturally, the type of guys you’ll meet on these services usually qualify as a) horny, b) thrill-seekers or c) exhibitionists.

Or all of the above.

The top five gay roulette chat/cam sites to check out are:

Popular Ways to Chat to Male Models on Cam

Everyone has a first time using a gay webcam site and it can be a nerve-racking experience. What do you do? Will you be charged just for looking? What do you say? Are you expected to do anything, and can he see you?

How do you actually chat with a live gay cam model?

There are different ways, and different cam sites offer their own show formats, but the basics are always the same.

The two most common ways to interact with a model are:

  • Free Group Text Chat: This is the message box you usually see to the right of the screen when in a model’s room. Anyone browsing can join this chat, and you can ask anything you want. This is the way you first interact with your model and check out if he’s the one for you. These free gay chats can become crowded, and there’s less chance of individual interaction.
  • Private Chat: You’ll need to register to go further than the free group chat box. When you have, you can opt for a private one-to-one chat with a model, although it will cost credits. A private chat doesn’t necessarily mean a sex show. You negotiate those with your model, and you are free to simply chat and get to know him first.

Expectations on Gay Cam Platforms:

Remember: Models are online to make money while entertaining, so don’t be surprised if your model leans heavily on the suggestion you watch them perform. Don’t feel pressurised into watching a live show; if you change your mind or if the guy is not for you, that’s okay too. As soon as you back-button out of his room or close his page, you are no longer connected, and the show is over.

Public Male Cam Shows

Public jerk-off cams

The largest cam sites, like Chaturbate, offer live public free male cams. This is where you can pay to watch as part of a group that can sometimes number in the thousands. It’s not a one-on-one male cam show, it’s a model responding to many requests from many people, and your requests may get lost in the stream, particularly in popular shows.

You’ll want to get yourself noticed, and one way to do this is to offer tips. The more you tip, the more likely the guy is to respond to your messages or listen to your suggestions.

Some of these shows only start when a certain amount has been reached, and users pledge tokens/money to reach that target. Make sure you keep an eye on the pledge’s running total, so you don’t miss the show.

Private Male Cam Shows 

If you want a truly personal sex-driven experience, then you will want a private male cam show, although these aren’t necessarily one-on-one cam shows.

Which site you use to see live sex action depends on the kind of guys you are into. Live Muscle Show, for example, is perfect for everyone into bodybuilders. If you want to see twink and jock pornstars, then the models from BelAmi who work on Flirt4Free are your ticket. If you want stripteases, then StripChat is recommended, and if you don’t care who your model is and you have a diverse taste, then Chaturbate has you covered.

As well as offering simple live, group chat, these sites, and many more, offer live sex shows that small or large groups of users can view at the same time.

Pros:

  • Group sex shows tend to be cheaper than Cam2Cam
  • The cost of the show is shared
  • Viewers can remain anonymous or not
  • Other viewers might get the model to do things you’ve not thought of

Cons:

  • Live sex shows for groups are not intimate
  • Heavy traffic might slow down the stream
  • You’ll need to be online and ready at a particular time

Here’s a tip: Many live gay cam sites offer recordings of these live shows. They may cost you a few tokens, but it means you can view them when it’s convenient for you.

Male Cam2Cam Shows 

A private, Cam2Cam session will give you the most intimate one-on-one experience, and just about every model on every gay cam site will offer a one-on-one show, even, perhaps, Johnny Rapid (recent winner of the AVN Cam Guy of the Year).

Some sites call these shows ‘exclusive chat’, but they are the same thing. In many cases, you can also show your own webcam, so you have a truly one-to-one experience.

Some of the best sites offering all-male Cam2Cam shows include:

  • Streamen
  • Dickshow
  • Camera Boys
  • Chaturbate

With these shows, you can video chat with the model, get to know him, and ask him to do whatever he’s willing to do for you. In some cases, you can even control his sex toys through the live stream. You’ll have to pay, of course, and models set their own rates, so make sure you check them out first.

Pros:

  • Alone time with your favourite guy
  • A very intimate experience
  • Opportunity to chat one2one with top male pornstars
  • It’s all you; no-one else can direct the action
  • You can share your cam too (in many cases)

Cons:

  • Costs per minute are much higher
  • Costs are usually more expensive than group shows or simple text chat
  • Some models might delay the action, increasing on-air time/costs

Spy On Gay Cam Shows

Spy private chat

Some gay webcam sites offer ‘Spy’ shows, or voyeur shows, where you can drop in to the private chats between other users and their chosen performers.

Voyeur cams are basically a cheaper version of private gay cam shows. You join a group of users who pay to log into a show, and hang around in the shadows getting off without having to interact.

The upside is that you are anonymous and entirely ‘hands-free’. The downside is that you can’t chat to the model.

Of course, you can enter any group show and simply not join in, but some sites offer a specific ‘voyeur’ mode (Flirt4Free, for example, has this option), so your name doesn’t even appear on the list of participants. If this option is not obvious on your chosen site, try looking at the FAQ or Help page.

However, often, you must pay for your complete anonymity by upgrading to a monthly subscription. For example:

  • Chaturbate offers anonymous tipping and private messaging only for Supporting Members ($19.99 per month).
  • StripChat offers Invisible Mode with its ultimate membership ($19.99 per month).

Gay Cam Alternatives: Phone Sex and Dirty Chat

Not convinced that a live gay cams site is right for you?

What if you want to use your imagination a little more and verbalise your lusty thoughts?

Phone sex services have been around for decades and are still going strong. There are also sexting platforms where you can trade messages directly with guys, or send and receive nudes, all without having to deal with crowds or the competing voices on bustling cam sites.

There are plenty of sites offering gay chat services, all for different rates and call charges, and among the best are NiteFlirt, TalkToMe and SextPanther:

Here’s a quick comparison of the basics at those three sites:

Gay Chat SitesNiteFlirtTalkToMeSextPanther
Average Charge (per minute)$0.99 to $2.34 $0.99 to $2.99 $1.00 to $2.99
ProfilesSimpleDetailedDetailed
Categories87Many
Model RankingsYesOnly by priceYes
Keyword Search?YesYesYes

SextPanther offers the most detailed model profiles and search options, with users able to leave reviews and access premium videos and pics. It also has the most interactive design.

Just be sure to check the costs against your location. Many of these sites are based in the USA, and international calls may cost more. You will also need to register before you can start talking dirty over the phone. 

Oh, and it’s probably best not to try this at work or on the bus…

Are There Any Completely Free Gay Cam Sites? 

Yes, but YMMV (your mileage may vary).

Chaturbate is the most famous cam site in the world, and while it has premium (paid) features available, you could watch live gay sex shows all day on this site without spending a penny.

You can find free shows on any gay cam site, although viewing is often limited to softcore content, and you may need to register before you can see the harder stuff. Some sites require you to register a credit card, and although they don’t take any initial payments, you might feel uneasy about entering your card details.

Which Is The Cheapest Gay Cam Site?

The cheapest private gay cam shows generally start at around $1.00 per minute (LiveJasmin, Streamen, Camera Boys, DickShow), but you can find some shows on Chaturbate for just $0.50 per minute.

The average cost of a live show varies from $1.99 per minute to $9.99 per minute depending on the platform, model, and action.

Who Are The Most Popular Male Webcam Models?

Hunting for the best of gay cams? Pornstars use live cam sites to interact with their fans, boost their popularity and sales, and some do it because they are natural exhibitionists.

Gay cam websites, though, can create stars out of amateurs, and the guys at the top of the ‘most popular male webcam model’ listings don’t have to be known pornstars.

As an example, here’s a list of the four most popular male webcam models on Chaturbate right now. This list (source: CBExplorer) is based on their popularity, rankings and total viewers.
