OF out there making up for the gender pay gap

Trust me, it's not.

For every story like this, there are literally millions where regular women make next to nothing for their nudes.

Most normal women with OFs usually end up having a few subs from people they know who just want to distribute their nudes among peers. Imagine thinking you're going to make thousands when you end up making less than $100, and now everyone has your nudes.

That's the reality for most people on OF. And it's sad.

It's all down to exposure and even minor celebrity status can be leveraged to generate lots of views.

You see a similar thing in the acting community: celebrity actors aren't really better as actors than lots of unknowns out there (the quality all around of acting in places with very good acting colleges and a strong acting tradition, such as Britain, is really good) and often you get stories of people's careers taking off due to a mix of luck and persistence, and once people are in the public eye their careers pretty much shift gears (for reference, the average actor in the UK earns in average less than minimum wage from Acting).

If you consider "people having your nudes bad". I'm sure some do/have but many just don't care. My friend's sister has one. I subbed to support her and because she's hot. Unsubbed later because she was too expensive. Hung out with her at a party once and she didn't give a flying shit I had seen her buck naked. We just talked about normal stuff.

Lol, no joke, I thought you said "your sister" instead of your friend's sister.

I was like wtf lmao.
