    I often wonder what it must be like to live in the Czech Republic. They have 10.4 million people. Combined with the North we have nearly 7 million.


    Xvideos lists 966 Czech porn actresss. It lists 30 odd Irish ones but the vast majority do not appear to be Irish. If this island had the rate the Czechs do we could expect about 600- 700 listings. It seems to me most Czechs must know at least one or two women- ones they knew in school, their mates cousin etc etc- who has been in a porn.

    Yet Irish porn is so rare that when it does occasionally rear its head it becomes national tabloid news. The English wan riding her way around the country with GAA players, the woman riding the uniformed guard on film, that Fcuked in Ireland one with the birds from Tallaght made the news and all. I could nearly count on one hand (pun intentional) the amount of Irish women who have appeared in this stuff.

    Like you can go on Xvideos and see an orgy in a Czech flat with 30 odd women in their 40s upwards. Most of them probably married, mothers, yet they're all like "ah yeah, I'll ride some young lads on camera for 200 quid, why not" (and Czech is one of the more prpsperous ex Soviet bloc states, it doesn't have the grinding poverty of, say, Moldova or Ukraine).

    I just wonder what is so different about their culture that this is just normal to them.

    The countryside there still looks dirt poor in places though

    How many 20 year old Irish women are rich, though? Most are studying and working part time in low wage jobs. We have some of the highest costs in Europe for things like rent, getting started as a driver (buying a car, 12 lessons and getting taxed and insured as a young driver will typically cost between 5000 to 10,000).

    This country is a rip off to get anything for yourself to resemble a good standard of living, but pretty much no Irish women would ever consider porn or escorting (if you look on Escort Ireland in non Covid times there are typically about a dozen Irish women working it). I just wonder what it is in Czech culture that makes so many so blase about it.

    The Czechs are a bit mad alright. I was in Prague a few times and its quite eye-opening. A lot of the girls do porn and they talk about it so causally. A lot of the top models are from Czech republic so there's no shortage of stunners either.

    Actually who was that English porn star that was riding all the Irish lads in the caravan? That was gas. :) I remember reading in the paper about the hurler who lashed her out of it.

    Why do escorting when you can make money from simps by creating an Onlyfans and posting pictures of yourself? A lot of Irish girls are doing that. Not just Irish but girls all around the world. Escorting/porn is no longer required now that they know men will give them money for OnlyFans.

    Porn is like most other things in life.

    A little bit of what you fancy is fine but when it starts affecting your life then it becomes an issue.

    whats so great about having a high number of female performers from a country on " Xvideo "?

    how does that make the Czech Republic better than Ireland ?

    Not saying that in the slghtest. It's just amazing, particularly in the context of this thread title, how many thousands of women are willing to demean themselves for a few hundred quid a time. You could offer 100,000 Irish women 100k to do what these women will do for 200 quid and I doubt more than a hundred of them would take up the offer. Czech culture just seems so different in that regard.

    No names but there’s a woman in her mid 30s in the local town near me who is on the only fans platform and most ppl would know. Pics circulated on whatsapp last year too. This particular person works in a local customer facing “respectable” business

    Ppl def know and rumours spread like wildfire


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,543 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Ireland is a small gossipy place. There was an attractive girl who worked in a local shop when myself and my mates were in our early teens. Apparently she moved to the US in her early 20s and did a porn shoot in her mid-thirties. Despite none of us having seen or heard anything about her since we were kids the links were fired around Whatsapp groups from the area within a few days of the video hitting a site I'd never heard of before (i.e. not one of the big name tube sites). Obviously she was using a stage name too but I think anyone doing a porn shoot is kidding themselves if they don't think everyone they know will eventually see it.

    Would any of you lads simp?

    I think I'd only do it if I found a girl I knew irl was doing OF.

    Under no circumstances would I give money to this horrible site.

    It means being pathetic enough to give money to a girl online so she can degrade herself for profit rather than investing in yourself.

    Lockdowns, loneliness and horniness. The perfect combination for Only Fans.

    The New York Times ran a story last month ("Jobless, Selling Nudes Online and Still Struggling") that suggests that numerous women have flocked to OnlyFans as a way to subsidize their income during the pandemic. OnlyFans had over 1 million content creators in December, up from 120,000 the previous year. Some of these people are making a lot, but many are making only a small amount of money per month.

    The article notes that models, porn stars, and celebrities who already have large social media presences can easily drive traffic to an OnlyFans account. But for the average non-famous woman, pickings can be slim.
    “It is already an incredibly saturated market,” Ms. Jones said of explicit content online. “The idea that people are just going to open up an OnlyFans account and start raking in the dough is really misguided.”

    How acceptable is it among their peers? We can see from the current state of the world that young minds are easily manipulated and often not in their best interests...

    Any half decent looking girl with an ounce of common sense should be able to make a living from OnlyFans in this day and age if she decides to go down that route.

    I wouldn't honestly know how acceptable it is among peers. The article above does state the concern that employers will be put off by it if they find out.

    With over a million OnlyFans accounts in existence, I expect the economics involves a small percentage of "star" posters raking in a lot of money, while the majority make little or nothing.

    Weak men who give money, presents and favours to women in the hopes they get attention in return.

    Basically OnlyFans. Give them cash, they'll send you pics and maybe the odd message.

    Any girl going all in with OnlyFans is going to not need to work eventually. You need to understand how desperate many men are. It's pathetic that a site like OnlyFans even exists and the only reason it exists is because men fund it. You have a large amount of men who are paying money to women for pictures. I can only surmise that nobody is questioning the sanity of this because it is so widespread. I think any man engaging in it probably has some mental issues that need to be addressed. They seem to be gaining pleasure from the whole experience which is bizarre. In my humble opinion anyway. Instead of focusing on the women, focus on the men.

    99.9999999999999% of them make nothing worth mentioning . It's very much like gamers, where some make a lot of money, but millions of them just play games in their moms basement and make zero, and have no viewers.

    By gamers do you mean streamers? If you do, you need to amend that sentence to "it's very much like male gamers".

    Any decent looking woman with a passing knowledge of tech can start a twitch stream and be an affiliate, with a sub button, and 100 regular viewers in less than a month. It really is that easy. It's why a lot of the "cam girls" have moved over to twitch. You make more and get to keep most of your clothes on.

    They have their regular subs and their regular donors and can make a living off of it. Now, growing beyond that point takes some effort and luck but it is incredibly easy for an attractive woman to break through the 50 viewer barrier that 99% of the site falls below.

    Twitch seems to be the start of the slippery slope. It’s not limited to games, there’s chat only where unsurprisingly a lot of the girls like wearing very little clothes. Is twitch a recruitment drive for onlyfans?

    Is it any different than a Sky Sports subscription though in terms of paying for your entertainment?

    Any girl going all in with OnlyFans is going to not need to work eventually.

    It's hardly a "career' with any longevity, though. The core demand in erotica/porn has always been for women in the 18 to 25 age bracket. What happens when she's 25+ and her fans move on to younger, newer models?
    I think any man engaging in it probably has some mental issues that need to be addressed.

    It's a bit absurd to claim that any man who enjoys looking at images of attractive women has "mental issues that need to be addressed." How is it any different from having a subscription to Playboy? It also comes with some degree of interaction with the model, which I'm sure is part of the appeal.

    I'd say the appeal is the notion of knowing the women to some degree, or the illusion of knowing them. Personally a cheeky pic from a friend would be way more erotic than general porn.

    I followed a girl I used to work with on it. Paid extra for a few videos. But after a couple of months of seeing her whack herself with a dildo, it got old and unsubbed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


    How did you find her? Did she know you were paying her?

    I didn't know her well. She worked in a different department but I had seen her about and she is attractive. She was promoting it through her Instagram. I just happened to creep on her page one day via "people you may know". We dont work in the same place anymore so I don't know how it would have went down if she was on it and still working there.

    She wouldn't know who was subbing her unless your user name was obvious.
