The weird thing about the e-thot movement is it's being framed as empowering/exploring your sexuality, and cool, every human since the dawn of time has done romantic exploration in their youth/20s. But there usually isn't footage...of it. Viewed by thousands...

I can't imagine the hellscape that awaits these girls once the 'exploration' phase gets boring, but their footage is still being wheeled out 10-20 years later by avid viewers. I know that happens to some people already. And I know e-celebs from 2003 that still have the same fans.

Like, the internet really is forever, in one way or another, and previously this stuff happened offline so the cringe was only in your own memories. Where it should be.

Belle Delphine is a good example of someone who seems to have quit (for her own safety) and luckily for her the few really NSFW things were done on the down-low. But she still needs a new face and name if she wants to do anything else online, ever.

A few k a month for low effort videos/photos: cool, cool

Those photos/videos being used as ammo against you forever: less cool

Going off-grid/anonymous on the internet which we all live on now: maybe the only solution

Now I'm just wondering how I wrote this whole thread in 4 minutes. I seem to be doing everything at hyperspeed now, like my last drawing stream highlight on Twitch is watchable without speeding it up.

It seems a viral video of 'bf finds out gf has onlyfans' with 3mil views, has sparked some predictable debate from the peanut gallery.

I looked into this site year(s) ago and it's basically a site set up by one guy in the UK. The terms were poorly and vaguely written and it all seemed a lil dodgy. So it's interesting to see the circumstantial success it's/he's having now. The site gets 20% cut of every sale.

On web view I get quite a different figure, which suggests a paid promo of some sort. Is it 80k or 800k?

Love to live in a world where there's only a ten year difference between 'playing on the swings' and 'uploading content for strangers to jack off to' in the timeline of any regular girls life. Yet people still argue that we have perfect equality between the sexes.
¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

I decided to take an unambiguous stance due to the propagation of this type of work in 2020, in order to specify that I don't encourage or do it. I also don't think discouraging it will harm the career of any SW since the customers will be there regardless of public support.

Obviously children with undeveloped brains taking part in work that leaves an indelible stamp on the internet and involves personal communication with strange men is inadvisable. However we have an economic, social and technological situation steering the youth towards it.

I saw this yesterday regarding what happens when you quit sex work but retain the same followers/social media presence.

My main issue with it is definitely 16, 17, 18 year old girls getting into it as their first job before attaining any life experience. Before even doing a customer service job.

If you've done customer service you know people will take liberties even if your only duty is to dole out information and take their money. Somehow that still means hanging around for hours, shouting, accusations, destroying stock, sexual harassment, theft, etc.

If you're older than 21 I don't care, but it really feels like young women are being groomed into taking part in the hot new trend of online sex work, while basically still being a child in a woman's body, with little awareness of consequence and future.

Also....how old are these customers? When I saw a girl I followed started an OnlyFans (at 18) I checked out a few of the guys leaving supportive comments on her Insta. They were 30, 40 years old and not the kind of guys any 18 year old would choose to approach herself.

Basically I feel older men are taking advantage of young women's lack of life experience/naivete. When you're 18 you don't think 'hey maybe these guys will stalk me for the next 20 years' or 'they will think I'm a SW forever, even once I've quit' and that's exactly why they join.

I use words like 'young women' and 'the youth' while looking the same age as the people I'm talking about. Probably why I have such visceral fear about this topic since it also applies to me.

Anyway this is all happening around a time when men publicly post how much they hate women online, even on their Tinder profiles, with their real names on them, where harassing women in the street or elsewhere is fair game. Probably the worst time in recent history to be female.

So when you sign up to share vulnerable images of yourself, knowingly in an environment of hatred, it's a different thing to sharing that with a partner or experiencing a romantic relationship irl.
It's throwing meat towards the snarling beast to quieten them for a few moments.

Domestic violence is up, intimate partner homicide is up, this is not an environment of warmth and sexual revolution, but hate and coercion. It would be different if women were treated adoringly and finances were free flowing. So another reason young'uns should steer clear.

Previously:

That screencap deals with the coercion/non consent/revenge p-rn aspect which is extremely prevalent. For every paying customer there will be another few dozen, hundreds or even thousands viewing your content without your consent/for free.

So there is still violation even within a framework of consent, such as in bottom right revenge p-rn cap.

Because I'll probably leave this thread up for reference, just adding context for why dozens to thousands will see 'pay for' content for free. It's common practice for guys to share images/video from OnlyFans/Patreon on forums which are viewed by thousands, or even upload leaks-

- of compiled content from hundreds of women for easy access. So all it takes is one bad faith customer for your 'pay for' content to be winging its way freely around the internet.

The fun for them is in denying those SW customers+violating the consent.

Camgirls usually get 'private shows' secretly recorded and uploaded to p-rn sites, too.

So instead of earning, idk, £10-50 for one guy to see one thing, you actually earned £10-50 for a thousand guys to see that thing.

That's 0.015-0.05p per guy.
