P&C drink and review a summer ale, then discuss OnlyFans.
The site serves as a medium for paid content. It's not only about sex. It can be used by artists, musicians, authors, and so on. But it's largely about sex.
There are some possible benefits to women who choose to do "sex work" on OnlyFans. There are no pimps. They can set their own boundaries. They're at less risk for STDs. And it's possible to make a lot of money.
But the possible benefits are outweighed by many negatives.
Once a woman has agreed to do this work, she's lost an important part of her dignity, and it's hard to go back. They start to think "oh well, I guess I’m this kind of girl now.”
While women can set their own boundaries, they will be constantly pressured to do more.
The woman who does this kind of work on OnlyFans becomes a sexual object, and she will be treated that way. Sexual harassment is part of the job, and it gets very ugly. You’re no longer a person. You're a product that exists to satisfy strangers sexually. It’s dehumanizing.
Stalkers are a real problem.
There is a false sense of privacy, since the content is allegedly behind a paywall. But it won't stay private. People will find a way to download it and post it for free on the Internet.
A woman's future plans for career and family will be negatively affected, and it will affect the woman's ability to be intimate with a real person.
Time as an OnlyFans star is very limited. There’s an endless stream of younger, hotter women ready to replace you. You decline in value as you age.
High-value men don’t want to date sex workers. No man wants to share his wife. And it's already hard enough to get married.
The promise of OnlyFans is a delusion.
In addition to the negative effect on women, OnlyFans has a negative effect on society. It normalizes sex work, lowers the collective morality of society, and traps young women in a dead-end career.
