The Evil Economics of OnlyFans

[NightskyeB4Dawn]

I am on the fence on this topic. 

I believe in the ability of people to live their lives and make a living. If they want to do the OF route, so be it. 

HOWEVER....

I feel deeply these actions will come back to haunt many of these young women. They are young and we've all been there. Young and dumb. Not making great decisions. These decisions are the internet forever. The girls can equivocate all day long on what line of work this is but it's still quid pro quo. 

I am concerned about the young men who throw money at these girls. What world view is that building in them? Their view of women? The whole simp thing just irks me.

Now the category where I feel no concern. I feel no empathy. Quite the opposite. The predators. The POS's who work to take advantage of these young people. Play with fire and all that. Nobody is "asking for it" but if you play on the freeway don't be surprised when you get run over. 

In the end, I do not have a position on the subject. Sort of all over the place.

Thank you. I too am having trouble with this one. I too am all over the place, because this is an issue that is all over the place, much like anything else that has to do with sex. Consenting adults of a sound adult mind, do not always show up in these situations.

I totally agree with what you state about predators, but the predators can be hard to spot in some of these situations. My friend's daughter, I feel, fits in a category very close to the predator status. That young boy that recognized her, did not look like he could be expected to ride a bus alone, and I am sure there are many others like him, being taken advantage of. The lecherous old men that fund her site, are getting what they pay for, I guess. Though this type of activity can be a gold mine for human traffickers, especially where young girls are concerned.

I have mixed feelings about how we handle this situation, because it is not going to stop the inhumane traffickers, they will just go deeper underground, making it much harder to fin.d them, and reduce the chances of helping the victims in a quicker time frame.

This is indeed a sticky wicket.
