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.
Yeah, my partner was in the top 0.5% of OF models for a while and the payout was maybe $150 every three months. The wild and vast majority of people will never make any money from it, given the $100 minimum before you get paid. I don’t think people understand just how rare it is to make money from the platform.
Your wife would have probably been better off camgirl-ing at that point.
Disclaimer: no twelve year old or any underage minor, under any circumstances, should be considering any of this as a viable alternative to traditional white or blue collar labor.
Really!? In the top 0.5%!? Was this in the early days or are they really just not paying anybody?
This was relatively recently.
Tempering that number slightly is just -how many people- are on the platform, 1 in 200 getting paid out isn’t as unreasonable when every fifth person on the planet (seemingly…) has an account. It’s all luck based, and most people unfortunately just don’t make any sales because they weren’t the lucky one chosen by the Horny Zeitgeist that round.
… And that minor bootlicking out of the way (don’t kinkshame me) yeah they stand out as being predatory even in an industry renowned for exploitative practices. It’s pretty fucking awful.
“What if we combined the hellishness of the porn industry, with the hellishness of gig work?”
Holy shit, what?? That’s robbery…wow.
