Recently I’ve been overwhelmed by the influx of mates that have become OnlyFans stars. Not overwhelmed because my close friends are popping their asses all over the internet, but rather the screenshots of implied incomes, and their bank accounts overflowing with gratuity from older men just frothing at the idea of owning something. Though there’s never any judgment from me because sex work is work at the end of the day, and you gotta get your bag somehow.
So let’s have a kōrero with one of my friends that have made rent several times thanks to the beauty that is OnlyFans. Their identity is gonna be kept secret, unless you love the idea of their content…
(This was impromptu and over drinks, so yeah)
Dr. Sex: Do you, like, post all the time? What’s your posting schedule like?
OF Boy: Not all the time, I kind of like to have small breaks in between big posts. It helps keep up excitement and has my fans wanting more and willing to pay more for PPV and some of the more intimate stuff. It’s all about understanding supply and demand, whatever that may be.
Dr. Sex: I have thoughts. PPV? Like pay per view? Are you selling a live boxing match?
OF Boy: Bruh. No. The way OF works for me, is that I post teasers and more covered stuff on my main page. So you pay that initial fee and that gives you access to my back catalogue and whatever posts I put up within the month. Then there’s DMs, and that’s where you’ll find things like fucking or dick.
Dr. Sex: Right… I mean it’s blunt but regarding PPV, what do you charge for that? My concern would be that it seems like you’re almost deceiving the user and deliberately misleading them into thinking they’ll have complete access to, well, you.
OF Boy: Oh, I make it abundantly clear that I have paywalls as a means of combating anyone thinking they own me or my body. They’re not entitled to shit unless they pay me. It’s kind of toxic, but they don’t have to come to my page if they don’t want to. The price depends entirely on what it is. Things like my dick, which isn’t that new anymore, I’ll charge like $5 for a few photos and a short video. But recently I made some porn with my girlfriend (she’s also an OF creator) and that was like $25? I don’t know, it’s a weird one since there’s not that much business advice.
Dr Sex: I was gonna ask about your girlfriend and whether or not she knew. I guess if it makes sense, then keep at it?
OF Boy: Well there’s an expiration date for sure, so I’m trying to just get my bag now before I’m too old or the platform loses its appeal. There’s always a worry that I’m ripping people off, but I remind myself that they don’t have to pay for shit and they could just ignore me. It’s their choice. Oh also there’s tips and I do requests and things like that. That’s where the real money is. I’m nothing like the Tana Mongeau’s of the world, coming on for a month and making millions, but I make more per month than I do as a tradie. It’s all good fun and I can get my klt off and make some cash.
Some final words from me: only do OnlyFans if you’re ready to receive scrutiny and criticism for your body or your ethics. Sex work is work and you shouldn’t feel embarrased of disgusted in your decision to fuck on video. It’s your life and you need to feel comfortable in your decisions to make content that gets people off. Just be safe and do your research aye.
