    Never thought this was the case :pac:
    Interactive webcamming is the fastest-growing sector of the global pornography business. In Romania, thousands of women work as "cam-girls" from studios and from home. It is a 24/7 market, the majority of clients logging in from North America and Western Europe.

    I always thought it was randomers showing themselves off while trying to earn some money (thought they would earn buttons too)
    But nope. Seems to be an industry now where women get paid to go on cam.


    What will be turned into an industry next :pac:

    So many playful pacmans in that post, yet so little regard for women (girls) who are most likely forced to perform in front of a webcam for manky western men. If it were for Asian men, there'd be uproar. See previous thread for details.

    Don't be naive.
    Obviously some are and it's quite sad. But most aren't. All you need is a computer, a webcam and a good internet speed. Which so many people in the world have.

    again.... don't be naive. The whole "forced in to it" is used so much in prostitution to.

    If there getting paid e4000 a month...I'd say it's safe to say that they've no shortage of volunteers



    Cant fathom why people pay for this though?....but fair play to anyone making a living at it

    Naive would be thinking that it's not easy to exploit people sexually. Unfortunately it's more common than you'd think. Of course there are those acting out of their own free will, but many who aren't. Can you tell the diffrence easily?

    Agreed. No idea why anyone would pay someone to strip. Plenty of porn out there. Free too.
    That said I highly doubt a lot are making 4000k a month. It's no secret that famous porn stars do live camming too. So sure, they could earn that much.

    Why did you delete your first post? :confused:

    Well see... that's the thing. Head over to an online cam site right now. Plenty to choose from. Thousands of people are online now let alone anything else.

    Are we really to believe 50% are forced?

    People wanna make money online. It's the new buzz thing after hearing how people have become millionaires through youtube and the like.

    .

    Because I was drunk and I don't care any more.

    Live streaming is quite popular nowadays, as mentioned above all you need is a decent Internet speed and away you go.

    Each to their own I guess

    This is over ten times the average salary in romania. It would be like someone on 130k per year in ireland.

    You can say the same about the clothing industry, lots of forced labour there, and far less money. Can you tell the difference if your nikes were made by an adult on $1 an hour or a child on 20c? You should therefore never buy any clothes.

    boobs. That's why.

    I am sure there is a huge market for you in the Scottish Highlands, LadyMacBeth :D:D:D

    And I'd do it too if there was any market for bald hairy middle aged Irish men .... beats the hell out of my day job

    I don’t see a problem with it. If these girls want to flash their fruppenies at blokes from the comfort/safety of their own bedrooms and said blokes are happy to pay €2 per minute to watch then let them at it!

    There’s an Irish Trans doing it too I hear

    I don't see the appeal in paying myself either - you'd want to be in to some seriously niche shto have to pay for anything these days.

    As for being forced into it - for 4k/month there'd be a que right down O'Connell street to sign up. For 4K/month in Romania there'd be a que all the way to O'Connell street!
