      It’s simply because unfortunately, most of these girls were taken advantage of at an extremely vulnerable time in their lives. The ‘empowerment’ that THEY feel is the fact it now happens on THEIR terms. Thats what that means. Women take the word ‘empowered’ too literally. Of course if you don’t have that sort of background you won’t understand it. Therefore, it doesn’t and will never apply nor address you.

      The men are definitely judged. Most women that I know (including myself) find men who constantly consume OF and corn disgusting and creepy, just as you stated. She didn't seem to be judging the OF "models" at all, but instead discerning that doing that for a living did not appeal to her personally. She said the reason for making this episode on this topic is in response to numerous comments asking her why doesn't do it herself. IMO she answered the question quite eloquently and matter of fact, sans judgement of the women who do indeed choose it for themselves. Discerning that something isn't for you, is different from judging.

      They are judged, by many women. In fact after the age of 24-25 it becomes unacceptable and gross. I could never be around a grown man who consumes abuse material of young women, it shows an unhealthy sexualization and deep immorality. I do find it rather disturbing the numbers of women who excuse this sort of perversion. Especially since having children. There is honestly no excuse for exposing your children to the presence of a man who objectifies children in this manner.

    As a young woman, None of this seems empowering or self-affirming. Just sad, and makes me think of low self worth, esteem, and a lack of dignity due to money. Just because the shackles/cage is made of diamonds doesn’t make them any less constrictive. Bondage is still bondage, and a gilded cage is still a cage nonetheless. It’s just….a bit depressing to be honest. And it seems like other women are simply recruiting or coercing other young girls by deception of the revenue they *could* make, which is a p*mping tactic that’s similar to what’s done on the street/blade. The glamorization of self-degradation and prostitution is nefarious, even more so when it’s other women doing the recruiting instead of the men. It could go left in many ways so quickly. I had a friend who was trafficked and all of this is just so gross to me.

    I really don't think it's jealousy or feeling directly threatened that makes women shun the creators of explicit content. I think that many women are just not okay with that industry and the people perpetuating that industry. A small percentage of the creators make mind boggling amounts of money, but as a woman I can't help but fear that that industry makes it harder for me as an ordinary woman to be taken seriously, for me to be valued for myself as a whole person and could put my own relationships at risk.

      Really tho? You think a digital footprint lasts FOREVER? Okay, Then where are my MySpace photos? Where are my Photobucket pictures?? Cloud data storage isn’t free and doesn’t last forever, those photos and videos have to be stored somewhere and the servers must be active which costs money. Once they turn off the server, the cloud dissipates and all that data is lost. Even the images and videos saved on individual computers must keep that hard drive running to access that data. Once the computer is old enough they get new hard drives and the old ones in up in land fills. Unless someone somewhere is actively paying to archive pictures and videos they only last as long as the platform they are uploaded to. Truth is this is a short term problem. After about 20 years the data isn’t worth paying to store.

    I was heavily into feminist Twitter in around 2020 and EVERYONE started doing it so I figured I'd do the same. I thought it'd be a good way to earn money and I support sex work as a legitimate career so I wasn't afraid of any stigma around being a sex worker. I even went as far as to buy lingerie and start doing test videos and things to see how to make my content better. My husband was also totally on board with it, which was the most important thing. But I had some kind of hesitation and so dragged my feet on getting it started. Within that time I watched a how to video by Lena The Plug and she said "Look, if you do this for only one day, it's still out there forever and it will follow you forever". Now I'm SO glad I never took the step. I have no judgement at all on anybody who did it, and half your luck if you made bank out of it, but I just think I would have regretted it. It's a little odd to me now to to see how many people who were talented in other ways (influencers, Iggy Azalea, etc) just resort to it to make a living. To each their own but I have a little concern that some people might regret it? I have nothing to base that on, just a gut feeling and I'm concerned for them.
    Also, Iggy Azalea quit music and sold her entire catalogue for $8 million or something. She started doing OnlyFans to provide for her son and now she is selling cryptocurrency (that's what $mother is). I think we need to pull at the thread of influencers/celebs selling cryptocurrency too!

    A month ago, I fell down this rabbit hole and tbh I felt seduced by the sheer amount of money these women make. Even if I wanted to, I don't think I have the body for it. One thing you didn't touch on was the amount of men on YT teaching other men, primarily, to essentially become pimps. Mostly teaching how to start OF agencies and doing very little to leech off the labor of women while keeping their dignity intact. If there are women selling their bodies, men must capitalize on that somehow, right? It's clear we're regressing in values as a society. What's the point of being a nurse or a teacher if you can't buy a house? You might not be able to to get a traditional job again and may lose relationships but the point is the pay everything off so you own it outright.

In fact not once has a video popped up on my feed (on any platform) on how to create an agency and capitalize on women. I would say if you’re seeing this, it’s far outweighed by the men trying to do good.

      people are burnt out and can no longer do it anymore, nursing is a bad career and there's ton of nurses on social media telling new students to not take nursing as a career cause it is soul crushing and draining work where you will not be respected at all. apparently OF is also soul-crushing and you "wont get respect" but guess what -- you can buy a house and pay your bills unlike being a nurse or a teacher (which is 2 examples of women being in these careers mentioned in this video and they were tired of their 9-5 job not paying them benefits and for their hard work and they quit their job to go make big bags from OF) I will never judge someone that wants that kind of freedom.

    It's similar as being a stripper. Sure on a great night they might make a lot, but there's nights they make barely anything. They're not on social media bragging about making $20 in a night, you only see the overly glamorized "look at this stack of cash" get shared on social media. It feels fake and shady to me.

    so yes, it is questionable in terms of sex work and etc, however, at the same time OF does WAY more work on protecting children compared to any other platforms

    Another thought provoking vid chick! Sara Blakely from Spanx said it best " money only amplifies who you already were".. she is a billion dollar entrepreneur , who is a self starter and never sold her soul. She worked to build her brand of women's shapewear and fill a need for women while she was doing it. So many influencers build their brands on doing nothing, but showcasing their bodies and showing what they have for lunch. Their only goal is fame and money.. so it makes sense that they will get it any way they can. if your only purpose is money, you will do it any way you can. Even if it means selling your soul to get there. It ties in with the narcissism and ego trend. From the outside, many of these people appear to have everything ( if materialism is all that matters) however they are deeply insecure people and incredibly shallow. When it's all said and done, where will their lives be in 10 years from now? It's so sad what we are promoting to the next generation.

      Sara Blakely was smart to capitalize on something that was missing from that industry so she made her bags. There's so many people that would do it if they could. Ask 1000 men if they would be a women for a day to do OF and I bet at least more than 55% would say yes, as in, the majority would say yes.
      Also whats wrong with selling your body? Jenna Marbles (who is loved by the youtube community and for so many years) sold her body at first and made it fit a comedy genre and then she built a brand from that and made millions of dollars then after a few years, quit youtube to live happily.
      So you wouldn't do that? Fine then let these people (men and women) do OF and hopefully that leads them to financial freedom.
      If I could make a million from it, I would invest in it into stocks and live off the dividend at 4% a year. I already buy stocks to begin with but having millions makes life easier.
      I applaud the women that made it out of poverty because I work with people that are homeless AS PART OF MY JOB and they are willing to do anything to get a job and a place to call home. How do you not see the systemic barriers? How do you not see how often people struggle to get by? I see it everyday and help them navigate the systems and its getting increasingly hard because many federal programs are reducing grants for our non-profits. Don't do you see? This could be the solution for some people to help themselves go from one socioeconomic class to the next and be able to support themselves.

    I follow boxing and I see many fighters have only fans now (including male ones). It’s apparently for fitness content but I find it so weird even if it’s innocent since we associate the brand with adult material. It’s just very odd to see their sponsorships during professional fight on the shorts or whatever. It’s a bit like Ring Girls, I never liked it and most professional boxing in Europe seems to done away with it, but US still has them even for female bouts. I find it jarring.

      People think the government is the enemy. It’s not. If you have something of value to offer society then you are considered an asset and will be rewarded with financial support by the government to get your business off the ground provided you go through the right channels.
      In other words, we need as a society to stop using all of the excuses to justify immoral actions. Selling your dignity online is not only detrimental to your mental health, it perpetuates brain rot in the consumers which causes societal collapse.
      So if you choose this lifestyle, and it ends up hurting you (and it will) then that’s on you…because you have plenty of other options. You don’t live in a country where you are at risk of losing your home and family because of an air raid bombing. Think of all the people in this world who don’t even have clean water.

    I don’t have an issue with OnlyFans or sex work in concept. In application it’s a mess. So much of society is focused on short term gains rather than long term gains. We see so much about OnlyFans as such an easy way to make money and money equals happiness. Basically, just the positives are being promoted. There’s a lot more to this type of career and its impact on these creators that very few talk about. We used to only hear negatives about sex work and now we seem to only hear the positives. The psychological impact, the effect on their loved ones, the issues that SW has on their personal intimate relationships. I could go on. That’s not even mentioning how the current type of SW plays into misogyny and patriarchal ideas of a woman’s place. Just because it’s better than standing on a street corner doesn’t mean it’s a “good” thing.

    People shouldn’t buy pharmaceuticals off the street. _However,_ we don’t say that because they’re buying it, no wonder people are selling it because we understand that in a way, it’s not 100% their fault for their addict-ion and people are prosecuted for taking advantage of them by doing that! It’s just not seen as important/serious (for lack of a better word), when we’re talking about men (in general) and with their different vices that they have to give their brain that “I love this; I want more! *I NEED more!”* feeling.

    I personally believe sex work can be ethical, but due to our social and economic structure, it’s very difficult. Yet equally, I do believe sexual liberation and ethical adult content is valid, yet how we go about it.
    I feel like if the main reason “sex work” is done is for money m, I don’t think it’s “ethical.” I think it’s the same way how people are over working themselves in typical 9-5s; I dint consider that “ethical” either.

Men are mad because they can't shame such women anymore because the women today refuse to be shamed by the very people who consume their content. Honestly, I'm happy for them. I hope those who are uncomfortable in those spaces have the strength and fortitude to leave. As for the rest, do what you have to, make wise money choices since it's not a long-term thing, don't be a slave to the lifestyle. As for the rest of the women, if you feel judgemental, you're valid, these are new and societal issues that were a taboo for the longest time, but I hope we remember that these are consenting adults and these creators are safer behind the screen than if they were to face their clients in person (serial killers targeted sex workers). They have autonomy and choice. To the women who could care less, more power to you. I wouldn't encourage anyone to go down that road, but I hope we are okay with be able to agree to disagree.

    I can see how it is easy money and how enticing it is. However there are also quite known OF creators that had a change of heart recently and stopped with it and then you hear how hard it is on your soul to be a product and always deliver more, because people will walk away if you don't and it comes with a lot that you have to give up and a lot of woman don't see that always when they start. I think a good question is that 'if you want to stop, what do you still have', because if money is the only answer, you've got a problem. Money gives security, for sure, but people that love you and care about you isn't something you can buy, and I think when you are basically a product that especially is enticing to men, I can see why other women don't want to be around OF creators, so your circle will be very small in the end I imagine and the question is if that's worth it for you.

If women stopped making the content men would find a way of creating this content for themselves, we are seeing this now with the rise of AI women who are making just as much money because men are wanting this content. Majority of these AI women are created by men and corporations.
    The blame alone lies in the people consuming this content. Stop consuming it and it will stop the revenue

      The blame is heavily on the platforms, websites, and studios who sell it too. These platforms market for young people to join on both ends. It might not be OF doing it, but young little boys and girls are absolutely groomed by society to consume this content. It’s not looking at the whole picture to only blame those who consume this content.

    I truly believe that these figures are being over exaggerated

    I appreciate that you mentioned it’s a complicated topic. I wouldn’t engage in that type of work but I am also privileged and have a great career so I don’t have to. I also don’t judge women that do that type of work though. Life can be hard and expensive.
