Sexualisation is a reflection of society. Ask women what they experience if they show up to work without makeup.
In my view, onlyfans is a net positive for society. Would you rather like sex trafficking? Because face it, humans have hormones, and our social norms encourage men to go for status and women for appearance.
These facts create the atmosphere for sex work.

- random_kris 5y agoSure you might not notice it. But 80% of others notice and comment on it. They don't expirence anything directly, but through time they get better treatment versus their non makeup wearing counterparts. Source? My office expirence, also my gf's master thesis was on how apperence affects office atmosphere.. (something in this line)

- rmah 5y agoMy observations are that it's typically other women who make comments about women not wearing makeup, not men. Or more generally speaking, it's other women who comment most on women's appearance (dress, makeup, hair, etc.) than men. Honestly, from what I've observed, most men seem rather oblivious to it most of the time (though obviously, not all the time).
- random_kris 5y agoI agree with this on you. But subconsciously women that look nice and have their apperence on point have bigger effect on me than women with "regular" apperence.. so I might not comment on it but it is a difference
- rmah 5y agoWell sure, but that's also true of how you treat men (you may just not realize it consciously). To deny that appearance plays a role in how other people perceive you and treat you is to deny reality. It may not be fair, but it's a reality that's probably literally baked into our genes.
- astrange 5y agoMen have no idea if you're wearing makeup and regularly think women aren't when they actually are.
- bryan_w 5y agoExactly. I've never heard a guy say "she would be cute if she wore some mascara" or "I can't believe she's not wearing lip liner". I learned long ago that woman "get pretty" either for other woman or for themselves.
- Peanuts99 5y agoYou can still have sex trafficking with OnlyFans in the mix, that's where the paying customers are and gangs will exploit that. Especially if it's easy to sign up.
