OF… do any mums do it? AIBU for even considering it?

The market's pretty flooded and a lot of people are established. If you're not, it's not easy to get in.

A teacher in my city got caught being on Only fans. She thought the platform was too big/saturated for anyone to recognise her, especially when she wore a wig etc.

Well, her pics/videos circulated round the school, she lost her job and ended up in the papers.

There is a big risk people you know, family, friends and colleagues will find it and that could be very embarrassing for you. Maybe if you found a way to hide your face? Or tried some of the other suggestions mentioned uptrend.

Could you look your kids in the eye and tell them you do this? Or your parents? That will tell you.

Those who say they are earning vasts sums from it never look like they are. I’d expect them to be better dressed and be living somewhere nicer. I don’t believe them.

I think only fans has done a brilliant job of marketing itself as a 'get rich quick' easy option. There are always headlines about people earning thousands per month. But I think the reality is you are very unlikely to earn any decent money. And certainly not from just a few pictures. I think it is much more likely to end up being a disappointing soul crusher. Or you will quickly get sucked into doing things you swore you wouldn't to try and make some real money.

Imagine the amount of DNA from selling used underwear that could be used to implicate innocent women in crime scenes. You don't know who has got your DNA and what they're going to do with it & daft women think it's a fab idea.

I don't understand OnlyFans. Internet porn is free. Why does anybody pay?

Could you not do something anonymous like selling worn underwear or socks?

Or a phone line conversation? You could be getting on with ironing while telling 78 year old John that you’d love nothing more than sucking his toes in a bathtub of beans! Or is this sort of thing not even a thing?!

I’d strongly advise against this, OF girls get zero respect.

What I do - trade secret.
No I don’t chat to my subscribers (don’t have time or energy for that)
I only monitor at a high level - I’m not dependent on the income so as long as it maintains a broad average I’m happy
No I don’t do more and more intense things. I do my thing and if people aren’t happy with it that’s their problem. You need to be happy to walk away and lose subscribers.
DH & HMRC know. Apart from them we haven’t told anyone we know irl. So probably the whole neighbourhood knows but so far they are keeping quiet which is fine my me.

Feet pics will not make you money. It is a highly saturated market already. I signed up to feetfinderz (thanks random TikTok ad) and there were literally thousands of sellers but not a lot of buyers. The only people who even looked at my profile were other sellers (it tells you who has viewed). Total waste of time.

This. Imagine finding pics of your mum or dad …..

Interesting.

can I ask what sort of things you do? And I’m guessing you also chat to your subscribers?

do you monitor how much comes in each month and how many subscribers you gain / lose?

do you have to do more and more intense things to keep them interested?

does anybody in real life know you do it?

She used to meet up with some men and they would take her for a drink and buy her expensive lingerie

This sounds like a sure-fire way to meet a stream of serial killers.

Nah, it doesn't pay enough. You'll be a long time waiting to leave Dhubby relying on income from "sexy pics". Like, retirement age.

And by then what's the point - you'll be dead soon after.

My friend sold used knickers for a while and she made thousands . She used to meet up with some men and they would take her for a drink and buy her expensive lingerie . If you’re willing to do it and got the balls you can make loads of money from weird men . I remember seeing a site years ago and some of the things she used to sell🤮🤮🤮🤮 knickers that she wore for a week and used sanitary towels and 🤮🤮 made you feel sick that men must buy these things if people are offering them !
even a chuppa chump lolly that had been 🫣

I don’t understand why men want to sniff a strangers knickers … 🤔

Wouldn't it be easier, and involve a more reliable income stream, if you simply worked FT in your current or similar role, rather than bump-and-grinding in your scanties and hoping for the best?

I do get angry when women think of taking on sex work without thinking of the repercussions on their mental health and their children.

Please don’t, you’l be the talk of the ‘town’ if people find out - your neighbours, family, friends will look at you differently and possibly treat you differently. Your kids will likely be bullied if they find out their mum does that, especially if they’re teenagers it’s unfortunately likely that the content will be sent to your children.

the thing is, so many people do it as a short term thing when they’re struggling and need money during their rut - but they don’t think of the long term effects it can have. It can ruin your mental health, also the internet is forever and if you regret it, well that doesn’t matter because it stays online.

I’m no prude, but I will always say to people to not do it if your only goal is for the money. There are so many other ways to get money other than selling your body to creepy men.

Does anyone think there is a demand for large, big rather dry feet? If so, I will set up my account asap.

@Mumontheedge1249 - finding the niche is the key point. Re: the problem of "those pictures are always out there", look up "mirrored full-cover visor" - plenty of niche options with one of those covering your face.

Assuming, of course, that you don't have any identifying tattoos or similar.

Exactly, how low can they go. I wouldn't pander them. I wouldn't sell.it.

Would you like your daughter to do this for a bit of money on the side OP?
It's digital prostitution.

There are no decent ways to earn a quick buck. Increase your hours at work or find something else, not OF.

Do you have any children or secondary aged children?
