Be absolutely honest, would you consider only fans/sex work if it guaranteed you’d be rich?

If you were being 100% honest hypothetically. Would you consider sex work/only fans/webcam work if you could guarantee you’d become rich.

Obviously completely hypothetical because in reality most of us probably wouldn’t be able to make much money, we’ve probably got children to consider, you might already be well off.

But if it was the difference between working in a job you hate until retirement, or doing sex work for 10 years and then being able to retire a millionaire, if it was safe and you only had yourself to please. Could you forget your morals and do it? Do you think you could live with it?

Yabu - no
Yanbu - you’d consider it.

If you would consider it, do you think you’re a highly sexualised person anyway, maybe multiple sexual partners, able to separate sex from emotions.

Personally for myself, no. I don’t have a thick enough skin for it, I’d struggle. No judgement whatsoever to those who do it though, I have friends who do or have done Only Fans and have loved it, found it really empowering & made a good chunk of money doing it, good for them, just because it’s not something I would choose for myself doesn’t mean I think it’s wrong or awful.

No, not all.

Catlover77 · 04/09/2025 14:59

No

bigbluefish · 04/09/2025 15:02

Jeez Louise 🙄

cramptramp · 04/09/2025 15:02

I can see no benefits in prostituting myself. I’ve been very hard up in my life but nothing would have made me even consider that. I think I’m better than that.

tuvamoodyson · 04/09/2025 15:06

No.

JamPotJenny · 04/09/2025 15:07

I’d do feet pics but my feet are god-awful and I have a very obvious and identifying scar on one of my feet.

Arlanymor · 04/09/2025 15:08

No, I am not able to completely separate sex from emotions. Plus those that earn lots of money have high profiles - I don't want to be famous or infamous.

PeonyPatch · 04/09/2025 15:12

Yes to feet pics. No to anything else.
in fact, I’ve had men preying on my feet on Vinted of all places 🙄🙄🙄

Cloanie · 04/09/2025 15:24

No, I loathe creepy men and avoid, avoid, avoid. Would never pander to them.

Dinoswearunderpants · 04/09/2025 15:25

I'd sell pictures of my feet but that's about it lol

Not enough money in the world.

ObliviousCoalmine · 04/09/2025 15:26

Depends what it involves. “Sex work” is a broad spectrum.

MsOlive · 04/09/2025 15:27

No, it would sicken me. I wouldn’t last 10 minutes let alone 10 years.

BauhausOfEliott · 04/09/2025 15:27

Depends on the kind of content. If I could get rich from sexual content on OnlyFans appearing solo only and without showing my face, then I'd probably do it. But people rarely, if ever, make money like that. Even most people who do actually show their faces and perform with partners don't make much.

I know a man who makes a reasonable amount from OnlyFans, appearing solo only, but it's not his only income. He certainly couldn't live on his OnlyFans income alone.

Unexpectedlysinglemum · 04/09/2025 15:30

I wouldn’t do it for ten years. But if one of my exes said he had a sex tape of me and could he ‘leak’ it if he paid me £5 mil id say yes.

JimmyGiraffe · 04/09/2025 15:32

Or the cookery version of "Only Flans"??

Scleverley84 · 04/09/2025 15:37

hundred billion percent I would!!

CosmicMountain · 04/09/2025 15:38

I dont think it's my thing really but I'm not even sure what is involved. Do I have to record myself having sex with someone?

Or is it more 'solo' work for others to pay to view?

I'm not sure I could be bothered with the waxing...

OriginalUsername2 · 04/09/2025 15:38

No.

I was selling bags of clothes on Gumtree and got a message from an underwear perve asking to buy used tights. I was so so skint but I still didn’t do it. Basically because I didn’t want that in my personal history, even if no-one knew!

Moveoverdarlin · 04/09/2025 15:40

I would do it if I could guarantee I could remain anonymous and no one who knew me knew I was doing it.

Gerardormikey · 04/09/2025 15:41

Absofuckinglutley.

But I look like a melted candle. No one is paying for that.

OldBeyondMyYears · 04/09/2025 15:41

No! Absolutely bloody not! 🥴

JamieCannister · 04/09/2025 15:43

If I could make £2m whilst dealing with the knowledge that men are w**king themselves silly to pictures of my feet then I'd be on OF.

If rich is £100k for having sex with people I don't want to and having close up of my bits on the net forever, not so much.
