I've met three women at my workplace who've done OF material (they wanted me to sub to them on their instagram, I neither do Insta nor am I really interested).. None of them were particularly traditionally pretty, but I guess some dudes out there are into it. Feet pics, fart p*rn, asmr.. I'm kind of in awe at their ability to make money off this, because a) as a man I cant and b) clearly the job aint paying enough. The moral outrage needs to twist from what she does to what employers pay.

It's clearly a recent balance update - women get lower salaries but they can get free cash for a few pictures! /s

I mean you're kind of not wrong lol

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago (5 children)

Why do you think you can't do that as a man?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago (3 children)

I don't know if you've ever met any male strippers or other male sex workers, but they make a lot less money.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 8 months ago

And are a hell of a lot more athletic than I am.

I knew a guy that did a few BG porno scenes. He told me he made between £150-200 a scene. It took about 5 hours to shoot the scenes iirc.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Sure, and their female counterparts are making 10 times that for the same amount of work.

I am not arguing that a male stripper makes more or less money. I am arguing against the shockingly widespread and completely delusional idea that seems prevalent online that all women can just simply earn money online by posting any pictures and apparently are all just too dumb to do so.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Woah.

You haven't made any arguments though. In fact around this I see 2 comments from you that are just simple questions. It's not delusional to say that Women have more immediate access to a larger market share, and men do not.
Whether that be for social or sexist, or whatever, reasons is not making that untrue but you seem to be immediately taking that as to also equate a different position entirely. One that seems to be based on projection considering the "dumb" you pulled out.

Be upset over how people are being treated that people feel the need to turn to being sex objects to survive. Not at the people just jealous of thinking they would be better of if they could just be one too.

Well thats not what I said.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

I mean you can, but the market is a lot smaller.

Aside from that, there's nothing stopping you besides pride, and going through the efforts to make yourself attractively presentable. Grab some filter apps, and selfie editing apps, and prepare to spam your advertisements everywhere possible. Maybe even network a bit on different socials too. It's absolutely not zero effort, I'll say that.

There's give and take though. Men have access to a lot of easier to get into fields.

I've never met any men doing it tbh. I only ever hear of women doing it and male customers. I've never heard of women customers of male material? Or even gay customers of that sort of thing. I'll always accept of I'm wrong on that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The gay customers definitely exist. I suspect some guys out there make a living off of women, but by reading. Women are more attuned to audio, in general, than men. We tend to be attuned to visual stimulation.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

Women pay for a lot of hentai too.

I think the whole "women are less visually attuned to sex than men" thing is more social conditioning than people realize.

Not him but I am pretty confident no one will pay to see my naked on earth. Literally all 8 billion of you mother fuckers and not one of you would give me a dollar for a nude from me.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago

Use it to your advantage, make them pay you to keep your clothes on.

I need more donations or the tie goes!

I just need some Cred first.

The moral outrage needs to twist from what she does to what employers pay.

Seriously, this needs to be screamed from the rooftops. We need to stop kink shaming and slut shaming, and start shaming corporations and billionaires.

I'm kind of in awe at their ability to make money off this, because a) as a man I cant and b) clearly the job aint paying enough.

Why "clearly"? Maybe the job does pay enough, and they just want to make some money with a side hustle. Would you say the same thing if they were, like, selling soap on Etsy?

If you can support a family of 3 on a cleaner's wage rate then you're a better paid cleaner than she... 🤷‍♂️
