Know your worth and know where you are valued.
This can sound really deep, but it works for shallow too. I’m sorry girl, but the whore market is saturated and very competitive.
Where do I get my hands on the “aimless schlub” bluebook?
Yeah, she really should wait until OP’s mom retires.
That might be a while.
This is a topic for a community like laststagecapitalism or similar.
Not without a sob-story from the girl. Doubt she did it for the money. Someone with the time and commitment to doing this(if not energy or enthusiam) she demonstrated would make better money doing just about anything else.
Or she was doing drugs, therefore the enthusiasm. Energy fades. Now she is homeless. Or dead.
Damn I remember this post from when I was on 4chan still. OP did provide links and his story was 100% true. The girl wasn’t ugly, just kinda plain but almost every pic of her somehow exuded despair, and that was honestly offputting (except for the kind of creeps who get off on that I reckon).
Where are those pics? Where?
Apparently the woman from the greentext was known as “plastixfangs” online. She deleted a significant amount of her content, but random porn sites still have some of her posts. For example, https://pornpics.click/@plastixfangs (NSFW)
Yeah, I can see why tbh.
Every shot just lacks enthusiasm, and just screams “I thought this would be easy”.
Also, the photos look like they were taken on a phone, quite a few years ago now, and with not the best lighting.
Yup, that’s the one.
I can see it, she’s certainly not ugly, but not attractive enough to stand out from the crowd either.
And I don’t think she’s particularly good at taking photos of herself, either.
Wait that’s not a Rickroll
Yeah, the rare “OP delivers” moment. Savor it, you’ll probably never see it again.
plain, no curves, small tits, goth
Can a brother get a link?
Sure!
I like thunder :)
You really needed a URL shortener, didn’t you, you devil?
I don’t know you but I fucking love you.
that one has quite the substantial fanbase of this sort so this is far from applicable
yeah, where is the r/linkiscute equivalent
I don’t know you but I fucking hate you
Twink, my beloved 🥰🥰
I don’t know you…
THAT’S MY PURSE
This happened to a girl I knew that tried to make some money on onlyfans during Covid lockdown. Only lasted 4 months, even though she was pretty attractive. I think guys just assume that as a girl, you can simply post nudes online and make money, while it actually does require consistent effort, marketing skills, and a bit of luck.
on onlyfans, like most platforms, the vast majority of people make little to nothing
Managed my friends only fans for a bit, we got her account to top 4.5%. She brought in ~$1.5K on a good month. One time we got up to $2K. This is with her having done porn with a few big studios and having a decent amount of followers on Twitter. There is no Discovery feature or feed on OF, you have to direct them there through a direct link. Had to keep a consistent production schedule, deal with inquires from patrons. Successfully running and only fans is like running a business, people don’t simply give you money.
Making money requires work
That comes as a surprise for many people
Yeah, people think it’s easy to defraud Social Security. It’s hard pretending that I was born over 150 years ago.
Shit, all the work I had to maintain that fraud. Fuck me, it was tough.
Shut up Elon, we know it is you
I imagine it’s as easy to make money off of as YouTube or Twtich, almost impossible.
I know so many people trying to make it as streamers who cannot seem to understand that you have to do a lot of work to make anything catch on unless you are crazy lucky/extremely attractive. A regular person playing a game isn’t interesting for others and it takes energy for most to cultivate a following.
My cousin dropped out of university after a few months, and wanted to be a pro gaming streamer instead.
Oddly enough he never did achieve that, and now mostly sits around his parent’s house doing quite a lot of being depressed.
There’s a bit on the Netflix Pornhub documentary from a camgirl. She notes that she does her own marketing, lighting, camera work, etc., and every once in a while, she masturbates on camera. It’s a real job with real effort.
It’s like sex work is work.
The only people who think sex work isn’t work are terrible at sex.
Yes, but most of sex work is a sales job
And probably terrible at work.
Yeah, you can see this for yourself if you have a VR headset and a couple of sites have VR cams set up.
Mostly they forget they exist (although I’m grateful for the ones that don’t), so you get a kind of behind the scenes look at it all.
The one thing that strikes me is their demeanour the instant they’re off the main cam. These girls are so fucking done with everything and everyone, and it’s not surprising most of them quit after a month or two. Most of them are probably getting a fraction of the money tipped, with a good chunk going to the handlers (a lot of pretend typing going on, and they get directed by the person at the keyboard) and room rent (much of it seems to be in the same handful of buildings somewhere in St Petersburg). Many of them are on multiple sites at once, with phone apps on the go as well.
It’s a real business.
Sounds like anon could had made her day by just talking to her
Frankly, I’m glad she was spared the trouble. I can’t imagine they’d be able to offer words of encouragement without seeming intensely parasocial. A generic “you’re hot” wouldn’t have amounted to much. It doesn’t seem like there’s a correct answer, besides finding her irl, flashing her unlocked onlyfans, and begging for her socks
Great advice right here
Your post ended in a way I was not expecting.
I think this is the Hallmark original romcom I need in my life.
!Remindme in 20y
Don’t you dare bring that bot back.
A generic “you’re hot” wouldn’t have amounted to much.
I was reading the debate at Lemmy NSFW about downvotes. There was a comment made by one of the content creators about lack of meaningful comments were kind of demoralizing. I try to give genuine compliments cause it’s not easy putting nude photos of yourself to the internet. The internet can be brutal place out there.
Meaning upvotes and bland comments are nice however they don’t replace genuine human interactions that we all seek.
That’s interesting, I just assumed 95% of the posts in nsfw communities were from management firms and collectors.
Maybe it’s for the best he didnt…
I see this quite often on the other side of reddit. It’s quite sad. On that side of reddit, where no one shows their face, except occasionals who either leave generic “sexy 😍” comments or entitled requests, no one acknowledges you for trying.
Every time I see some woman praising sex work and/or calling it feminist, I am reminded of the 10 other girls who who_red away their dignity for absolutely nothing
who_red away their dignity
🚩🚩🚩🚩
Surprised that comment has this many upvotes
That’s what you get when you post on Reddit. Lemmy users appreciate everyone (becaude the communities are almost dead).
it’s a common criticism on reddit that the nsfw subs are just becomijg advertsfor OF so I’m not surprised they dont get much interaction
Sex work isn’t often feminist, but sex workers still deserve respect. They deserve to be included in the feminist movement.
And we can start by no longer implying that the work is somehow undignified. This applies to OP as well as GP.
Sex workers shouldn’t have to wait for the revolution to find respect. Maybe there wouldn’t be sex workers after the revolution, but I certainly hope it results in a society where people are freer to express their sexuality in safe and consensual ways.
I know it’s probably fake, but I low key think this is the experience of most women, online or not. Men like to think women can just ring a bell and get dick and companionship, judging off of, like, the cream of the crop of women and their (apparent) track record. It’s not always that easy, especially if you aren’t attractive. A lot of men don’t fuck for personality.
~~Obligatory not all men, yes there are shallow women, and yes it is also hard for men to find partners, and yes they have their own struggles and pressures that make their struggle unique to them. ~~
I mean, they probably could, but what’s available to them isn’t exactly the cream of the crop either.
Two sides of the fence reaching for the same cream. 😔
I imagine it’s similar to the gay male experience - I could get a hookup any time of day easily, but the guys aren’t relationship material.
Ah, another classic case of the wild goonette lost in cyberspace which has yet to be found. In due time.
There are a lot of people whod appreciate her features so its surprising she didnt get any attention. Maybe anon made up the story and is actually into men?
Someone else in the comments said they were there and it’s actually real. Likely still into men though
fake and into men
Nope anon is the girl trying to get your attention
Lies? On the internet? Impossible!
The funny thing is that if this greentext linked this girl OnlyFans, she would gain tons of views just out of pity.
Some of these would even stick around afterwards.
Nah, the post would be removed and OP would get a temp ban (or whoever posted the link).
Imagine equating selling of ones dignity to selling ones pics.
Top Victorian mind, after the morpheme clears.
Someone linked what they think was the person in a comment, at best they went to a lot of effort for very little in return.
Yeah my husband seems to think onlyfans is easy money, like I could just post a nude and money would come rolling in magically, talks about how much big earners are making on YouTube too, but hustling like that is so much harder than having a job, you have to be organized and ambitious and then for every one person making thousands, there are many thousands of people making pennies.
It’s so much easier to just have a job.
I’ve dated pic sellers, and yeah you’ve summed it up. Sex work is work, and it’s mostly a sales job
IIRC the average creator on OF makes less than a dollar a month
And more lucrative on average.
the incel mind cannot fathom a woman doing a thing for her own enjoyment
Genuine question, are there people out there who would do this for fun? Because it sounds like a lot of work to me.
I’d say it was more common in the past, and then a lot of them realised they can do it for money. Same with youtube.
They exist, and they would terrify you. Yes, even the attractive ones. Especially the attractive ones.
…this kind of hurt my heart.
