Cost of living random question

Weird question but wanted to know what the general thought was,

Me and my close friend made an only fans account and make good money from it. Neither of us remove clothes and our identity is hidden.

It all came about by watching that channel 4 documentary and, let's face it there's a cost of living crisis so just thought we'd try it.

We both make a good amount of money to be fair. But we spoke the other day and questioned if it was morally okay or if its something we should keep doing.

If this was offered to you as a mother what would you say? There's no risk to anyone and being a single parent is hard. Being a dad I nearly had to get a second job as things like maintenance, rent and bills were destroying me.

Random topic but so on point for these times

I wouldn't. But im not a single parent or struggling for money. I think id probably get a second job as a carer or in a shop first.

I couldn't! No ones going to pay to see this 🤣
Seriously though, good for you two. No harm done and you're making money.

God no, I wouldn't do it and I was a struggling single parent. I think it's skanky.

PottyDottyDotPot · 08/11/2022 09:34

I would do it if I thought anybody would pay to
look
at me.

I've been pretty desperate at times and have considered sex chat/text lines because I was off work after a period of illness and an operation, and the LL, council, bailiffs and utility companies didn't want to wait for other support to come through and hounded me for payments when I had no income and it was something I could do to get them off my back, but fear of getting caught and accused of benefits fraud was what stopped me in the end.

Disguise, obscure your faces so you will not be recognised - wear wigs and lots of make up.

WelliesandWine88 · 10/11/2022 10:44

Sex work is real work 🤷‍♀️
If you're both of age, consenting and safe, then there's no issue. You do you! Or you do them, as the case is 😬
Don't worry about the dinosaurs who use derogatory terms about it...🤣

Sensible post from Wellies, however I wouldn't call what the op does 'sex work'. She doesn't actually have sex with clients (which would be really hard work), just messes about posing on camera. I imagine that could be quite a laugh as well as bringing in much needed extra cash. However the op must protect her identity at all times.

Endofmyteatherr · 11/11/2022 05:29

The only issue is the identity I think only fans shouldn't let people show their faces for safety reasons.

I have watched those programmes snd I can see how making money so quickly is appealing good luck to them I say. No job is going to pay that type of money and potentially change your life style.

The op is a man not a woman

catfunk · 11/11/2022 06:31

Why are people referring to op as a woman? He clearly says he's a dad.

DamnUserName21 · 13/11/2022 20:48

More power to you, OP. People are judgy fuckers though so protect your identity and be discreet. We do what we have to to pay the bills!
PS I've considered OF for an instant but 1) no one would pay to see me :)) 2) I don't have the balls!!!

Curious to know how you make good money with both your privates and face hidden. Not that it is a road I have any interest in going down.
