I can tell something from a POV of a webcam.
My ex-girlfriend was a webcam model on the biggest website (chatur), and she was successful. It was even before the rising and growth of OF, somewhere around 2017.
She was happy with her job, and as I know, she is still satisfied with the money she gets from it. Usually, it's around $500-1000 and even $2-3k for one day of work.
It's happened because we live in a poor country where it's hard to find a job even with a degree, so you need to survive somehow. And we were younger and more naive.
Anyway, the thing is that she was part of the community of webcam models, and most of them working 4-8 hours a day and got around $300-500 in a week. Most of the money goes to 5% of models that appear on the first page.
It's a super competitive job, and your only way is to find regular customers who will visit all your streams to tip and talk about random things. There was an old dude who takes private and talked about his daughter and family issues. He was lonely and just want to speak anonymously to someone.
But there are also real creeps, one of them even somehow found out where we live and our city and travel here (to Eastern Europe from Korea) to report my ex to the police. He demands that she must have sex with him if she wants that to stop.
He was nice to her, and everything was fine, but one day she rejects his request (some crazy fetish things), and he goes mad, and all that happened.
You're right. The most significant fans are also the ones who go apeshit when something goes wrong for them, and it's scary to think about people like that and what they can do to break someone's life.
- trompetenaccoun 5y agoOur culture is sick. I don't judge you or your ex-girlfriend for doing it but the whole webcam business shouldn't be a thing. Governments should do more to help socially awkward people make real connections with others outside the internet. Instead people sit at home more and more and then lonely men pay to look at streams of women masturbating. If you got someone to time travel from 100 years ago they'd probably think we've gone full retard.
- mkw2000 5y agoYou think the government should stop people from jacking off?
- trompetenaccoun 5y agoYou could ask the same about other addictive behavior. They do a lot to discourage people from smoking or injecting heroin. The government should force anyone into anything but but as societies we can at least discourage unhealthy behavior to a certain degree. And more importantly offer help to those willing to take it. Actually if you look around on social media there are many people who know their situation is messed up and are looking for ways out. No one cares about them though. No one is helping.
