A new study published in the journal Sexuality & Culture has found that many adolescents in Spain, including those as young as 12, are not only aware of OnlyFans but also see it as a viable and even empowering way to make money. In group discussions with over 160 teenagers, researchers discovered that platforms promoting erotic content are influencing how young people—especially girls—view economic opportunity, self-worth, and sexuality. Teens frequently framed content creation as a personal choice or expression of agency, while minimizing the risks.
In all fairness, you don’t have to spend very long working in retail to feel like sex work not only probably pays much better, but is also probably a lot less degrading.
100% this. I’ve been sexually assaulted, spat at, threatened with the police, had a snake pulled on me (???). None of these things happen to you on only fans ( I guess you might have another kind of snake pulled on you eyyy) and you’d make significantly more money.
I’m a 32 year old man with a receeding hairline. I too see OnlyFans as an appealing alternative to traditional work. Unfortunately no one else wants to see that.
I do
I want to see that
You would have an audience, but it’s probably not the audience you want.
remember that only fans audiences are paying for their seat
That tells a lot about the job market.
The solution is, of course, more censorship.
Don’t like 90% of onlyfan people make next to nothing? I thought only a small portion of them can actually afford to do it “full time”.
Yeah, same thing with cam girls. A few popular ones can make a lot of money, but it’s pretty common to see rooms that are mostly empty with a bored girl waiting for tips and slowly getting more and more discouraged.
There’s so much free porn on the internet. Including theirs, because there’s always people recording and wanting their own clout or money from sharing it. Though one plus side is due to the sheer volume of what’s available, the “once it’s on the internet, it never leaves” doesn’t always apply. And even that which stays can be hard for anyone else to find due to the noise.
Though those who advertise their OF also advertise the search string to find it for free.
I mean, oldest profession and all that. Shouldn’t be surprising. When you can just fill mason jars with tap water and let the imaginations of some horny others do the rest, what’s not to like?
Wait what’s the mason jar part all about? Do they sell their bath water or something?
Yeah, some porn influencers (e.g. Belle Delphine) sold their “bath water” for, like, $500 a pop. They sold out in minutes. Desperate people are very easy to manipulate.
Damn, that’s so hilarious.
Like, I never would’ve even thought of just using tap water. I would’ve at least given them real bath water!
Fascists: Omg, young people see online sex-work as a possible solution to their future bondage under capitalism!
Me: Change the system so that they can have a future otherwise.
Fascists: We’re more interested in overreacting.
They would be more interested in those young people’s onlyfans account.
Making it worse so people behave even more understandably, so they can faint in response even harder.
Do any of y’all pay for OnlyFans?
Like, I am single and horny/lonely, but… I don’t get it, even theoretically. What’s the appeal of viewing some performer through a one-way digital window over the deluge of free content?
And I get that some would be into that, but (apparently) a significant fraction of the planet? That I don’t understand.
i don’t pay for it but it’s the only sexy content that i understand why people would pay for.
paying for big companies like a porn site or a porn studio only to see them produce the same fucking formulaic bullshit over and over again is what i wouldn’t understand.
paying for a single person who you might know from other things for a more personal feed and maybe custom content? yes. we live in the age of streaming, podcasts, patreon. people pay for these because it is or feels more genuine, personal, and interesting. plus there’s a lot of cases where you might know the person from youtube, or twitch or whatever, so it’s more interesting to some people than a studio pornstar. not that they don’t have their own content either.
plus there’s the simple aspect of (more) directly supporting creators. people sub on twitch to people like hasan piker despite the fact that he doesn’t run ads and allows his content to be rebroadcast for free on YouTube by fan channels on top of his own channel. literally the only reason subscribe to his channel is to give him money. people do it because they think it’s worth it.
It’s a lot of money people. I have a gay friend doing only fans. Some stooge pays him $100 weekly just to call him every morning to say good morning.
Even if I had infinite money, I just don’t picture getting much satisfaction from that…
Makes sense, I guess, but still.
I genuinely think that a lot of these people’s brains are too small to comprehend what’s going on in these transactions.
There are so many socially awkward losers that end up believing the women they’re giving money to actually care about them, so they keep doing it.
It’s sad and pathetic, but as long as it’s legal these people will be taken advantage of accordingly.
Articles like this showcase a weird 180 in moral logic over the last century.
On one hand, it is now stigmatized for younger people to have sex. Age of consent went up and 12 year olds are not allowed to do OnlyFans because it is harmful for them.
On the other hand sex and sex work is promoted as non harmful and a fun innocent activiy.
Well with this White House they’re going to earn a lot of money
My ex saw onlyfans as a great way to make a living and express her sexuality after we broke up.
It did not go as well as she thought it would.
It never does.
Sorry, kids. Porn is another line of work that’s going to dwindle away, thanks to AI.
I am glad I will live in a world where I don’t have to worry about seeing my daughters selling their sex online. I will only indirectly see them sell it to their partners for protection and attention.
Apparently going full retard is fine tho.
In person sex work might be safe from AI, only fans probably not.
So, basically what this says is that- the
pedophile’s, I mean… the conservative’s plan seems to be working as expected.Well, that’s probably the only people left who could get paid for porn. There’s lots of republicans on the internet.
