UFC star Paige VanZant said OnlyFans allows her to make ‘life-changing money’
OF has only existed for 7 years. The lower and middle class has been struggling for much longer than this. Wages have been stagnant for much longer than this. What did these women with ‘no other options’ do before OF? What do the struggling men do?
People almost always have options… They just may not like them. Let’s please all stop pretending these women are forced into or have no other option than OF. They are choosing to because it is a convenient way to make extra income. It’s a convenient side hustle. Why would they spend time creating a product to sell or learning a trade or skill when they can point a camera at themselves? Much faster and easier. And there’s nothing wrong with that - let’s just be honest when we have these conversations.
What did these women with ‘no other options’ do before OF? What do the struggling men do?
They were forced to do other degrading things. Or illegal things. Or both.
They still are; but they used to, too.
Why would they spend time creating a product to sell or learning a trade or skill when they can point a camera at themselves?
They literally are creating a product to sell. Camming is a skill. Don’t shit on sex workers.
let’s just be honest when we have these conversations.
Okay! All jobs are degrading! Your choices under capitalism are just different ways to sell your body and time and mind for a pittance, there is no dignified choice to make where you don’t have to sell yourself to survive. This isn’t new, OF is just a modern innovation of the same thing.
The majority of them already have jobs, sometimes multiple jobs. There’s no other options for them.
