    What’s the thoughts on this? Seeing a lot of girls using this as a means to make money. Some even making a career out of it. Saw some girl in England has made £1m from it and that was mostly in the last 18 months. Personally I’m not fussed either way, that said not something you’d want anyone close to you to be at. I’m sure there’s a few sly subscribers on boards...

    Basically a cam site where you subscribe to individual cammers.

    Online prostitution.

    Good luck looking over your shoulder for the rest of your life.

    Will the wave of militant champaigne feminists out there help their fellows exploiting themselves. Will they fook.

    Poor young idiots. Wouldnt go near it,

    Lonely sad people on both sides of the camera

    How do these make money, ongoing money anyway? Especially famous women anyway, Surely as soon as they put up naked pics, someone just shares them all over the internet,no?

    I think OnlyFans has a mechanism that prevents screenshots and the like.

    If I was a reasonable lookin' wan I'd 100% be on it. Money for jam.

    An ex of mine did camming, and other stuff that is still online.

    Don't think that it will ever hinder their lives - she has gone on to bigger things since. In this day and age, who wants to be the HR person who signs the letter explaining that a candidate didn't get a job, due to their previous employment as a sex worker?

    I wouldn't do it, and I hope it never becomes something my partner wishes to do, but it is not as impactful as it would have been years ago. Sure tabloids and papers practically praise those celebs who come forth and talk about their own 'leaked' sex tapes.

    They make money from incels.

    Honestly, we need to support our fellow kings - some guys getting into Findom, and Onlyfans just need support from the rest of us, to escape the financial servitude they put themselves through.

    Doubtful. There's chrome extensions to rip content. But you need access to the content.

    I suspect people who subscribe to a cammer, tend to try and feel like they are involved with the person to some degree. So the cammer would kind of push that. Which I think is why someone likened'em to prostitutes earlier.

    Haven't looked in to it and not sure what it's all about but initial thoughts are it reinforces the stereotypical idea of women as sex toys and normalises weird fetishes that debase the male/female interaction; is only a step up from porn. I could be wrong. Yeah right.

    It seems the women involved are doing it willingly to earn money, so it's not a misogynistic endeavour exploiting vulnerable women.

    Women can make money from it, men can't. All power to them getting money from lads for showing off their bodies for cash.

    So it's the women exploiting vulnerable men then?
    Idk. I don't really want to get entrenched in a discussion as the subject is not something I want to spend any time researching. I'll leave it to the more knowledgeable. I'll get my popcorn.

    Nobody is exploiting anyone. Women display content for a monetary gain, men who wish to access this content pay to see it.

    No victims, no agenda. Ill thought out on the part of the women perhaps, but we are all free to make poor choices.

    A lot of people make poor choices from economic pressure, I don't think this would be any different.

    I've never been on it but I thought is was more of a subscription based model on contend the girl uploads. I don't think it's one on one like some seems to suggest, as would be akin to prostitution.

    Economic pressure forced me to get a full-time job. Worst choice I've ever made.

    From the How it works page:

    As far as we're concerned, if you use social media and produce your own content, you should be using OnlyFans. Whether you're uploading tutorials, tips, behind the scenes footage or just endless selfies, a lot of your followers would be willing to pay for them!

    Just read about this...

    I mean there are some seriously lonely men out there to pay money to see some nude pictures? Absolute clowns.

    I would think any woman who does this will regret it very much so down the line.

    I suppose thats the problem though, is that people feeling lonely is increasing. In a world where social media pushes the agenda that you are more connected than ever, in reality the opposite is true. With peoples heads buried in their phones they are more disconnected than ever.

    Only fans is payed version of Instagram, with no filters to what you can post.

    Is the site a bad thing,I don't particularly think so, I stream on twitch.tv, and have 28 active subscribers which is certanly not a lot but people like my content. They watch me play video games, and support me, I think the nature of subscriptions be it Twitch/Onlyfans/YouTube are a great idea. There allowing people to do something they love.

    I know onlyfans is pretty much women and men showing pictures and videos etc and there's a market for that. But only fans have personal trainers and all forms of content. So why not, if people make money so be it clearly there a light on burning brightly for the mass's
