This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I know that girl's pain. I, too, want to be a massive whore but nobody wants me. 😔

[–] death_to_carrots@feddit.org 30 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Don't be the whore the world wants, but the world deserves.

You can be my whore.

Yeah my husband seems to think onlyfans is easy money, like I could just post a nude and money would come rolling in magically, talks about how much big earners are making on YouTube too, but hustling like that is so much harder than having a job, you have to be organized and ambitious and then for every one person making thousands, there are many thousands of people making pennies.

It's so much easier to just have a job.

I've dated pic sellers, and yeah you've summed it up. Sex work is work, and it's mostly a sales job

And more lucrative on average.

IIRC the average creator on OF makes less than a dollar a month

I know it's probably fake, but I low key think this is the experience of most women, online or not. Men like to think women can just ring a bell and get dick and companionship, judging off of, like, the cream of the crop of women and their (apparent) track record. It's not always that easy, especially if you aren't attractive. A lot of men don't fuck for personality.

~~Obligatory not all men, yes there are shallow women, and yes it is also hard for men to find partners, and yes they have their own struggles and pressures that make their struggle unique to them.~~

I mean, they probably could, but what's available to them isn't exactly the cream of the crop either.

I imagine it's similar to the gay male experience - I could get a hookup any time of day easily, but the guys aren't relationship material.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago

Two sides of the fence reaching for the same cream. 😔

Imagine equating selling of ones dignity to selling ones pics.

Top Victorian mind, after the morphine clears.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 8 points 6 days ago

Someone linked what they think was the person in a comment, at best they went to a lot of effort for very little in return.

[–] dick_fineman@discuss.online 22 points 6 days ago

...this kind of hurt my heart.

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

It is a rule of thumb in businesses that 80% fail within 5 years. It is the same with anything who are looking for fame and success; only 20% succeed. And even within those 20%, only like 10% are considered in the A-list.

Anyhow, I am curious why this girl felt the need to expose herself. Is it for money? Does she feel insecure and needs validation? Or both?

[–] match@pawb.social 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

the incel mind cannot fathom a woman doing a thing for her own enjoyment

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 4 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Genuine question, are there people out there who would do this for fun? Because it sounds like a lot of work to me.

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 7 points 6 days ago

I'd say it was more common in the past, and then a lot of them realised they can do it for money. Same with youtube.

They exist, and they would terrify you. Yes, even the attractive ones. Especially the attractive ones.

[–] turkalino@lemmy.yachts 225 points 1 week ago (10 children)

This happened to a girl I knew that tried to make some money on onlyfans during Covid lockdown. Only lasted 4 months, even though she was pretty attractive. I think guys just assume that as a girl, you can simply post nudes online and make money, while it actually does require consistent effort, marketing skills, and a bit of luck.

[–] morrowind@lemmy.ml 173 points 1 week ago (5 children)

on onlyfans, like most platforms, the vast majority of people make little to nothing

Damn I remember this post from when I was on 4chan still. OP did provide links and his story was 100% true. The girl wasn't ugly, just kinda plain but almost every pic of her somehow exuded despair, and that was honestly offputting (except for the kind of creeps who get off on that I reckon).

Sounds like anon could had made her day by just talking to her

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 175 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Frankly, I’m glad she was spared the trouble. I can’t imagine they’d be able to offer words of encouragement without seeming intensely parasocial. A generic “you’re hot” wouldn’t have amounted to much. It doesn’t seem like there’s a correct answer, besides finding her irl, flashing her unlocked onlyfans, and begging for her socks

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

A generic “you’re hot” wouldn’t have amounted to much.

I was reading the debate at Lemmy NSFW about downvotes. There was a comment made by one of the content creators about lack of meaningful comments were kind of demoralizing. I try to give genuine compliments cause it's not easy putting nude photos of yourself to the internet. The internet can be brutal place out there.

Meaning upvotes and bland comments are nice however they don't replace genuine human interactions that we all seek.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 days ago

That’s interesting, I just assumed 95% of the posts in nsfw communities were from management firms and collectors.
