    If you’ve got it, flaunt it.

    I hope she manages to set up an irrevocable trust that guarantees steady income for the rest of her life so someday she can quit sex work and just pursue art or something if she wants

    Hell, maybe it’ll turn out that sex work is her art and that is ok too

      Good for her but I can’t help but feel envious that paths and choices like this are basically exclusively only available to the opposite sex

        you could argue that men have similar exclusive, lucrative paths that use their strength/athleticism and are also probably statistically similar rates of exclusivity within their sex. Like, not everyone will be a professional footballer just like not every onlyfans model makes livable income.

          Not to mention, it’s definitely possible for men to have successful careers in sex work. I expect there are far fewer successful men in sex work, and they probably need to be ok with having a mostly male clientele. But it’s still possible.

          The mean earnings for OF is $150/month. Meaning it’s likely there’s a vast majority of people earning $50-100/month, and a vast minority earning $100k/month.

          With props, camera, lighting, editing “costuming” etc, you probably lose money doing it.

        it isn’t. there’s a lot of male OF models too, although their fans are probably mostly gay men. good news is, unlike performers from before online videos took off, you don’t really have to be “gay for pay”. OF models can get away with doing solo work as well.

        Blame that on men being the only people willing to pay for it.

        That said there’s plenty of gay men out there willing to buy pictures of your ding dong if it’s photogenic enough.
