Yeah, but for porn tho…

So what you're saying is sex workers aren't real workers and don't deserve to be paid. If that becomes true and no one pays for porn, GUESS WHAT: no more porn. It has to be profitable for the people doing it. It's not like art, the vast, vast majority aren't doing it because they love it. They're doing it for money.

Nah, even if nobody paid for porn there would still be porn. In fact, there's already enough porn already made out there that we have enough to last us for centuries. But even disregarding what's already out there, people would still make porn for free because they want to show off and share their videos.

Could you imagine if porn stopped being produced in the ‘70’s and all we had to jerk off to was huge muffs (huge fan of muffs by the way (it’s mostly a texture thing))and blue eyeliner up to their eyebrows?

the vast, vast majority

Not to disagree with your main point - everyone deserves to be paid - but porn scales so well that we might already have enough free amateur production for everyone. It just doesn't get to the top of SEO-optimized searches.

You've seen significant amounts of porn produced and distributed that was made for fun and not monetized? I certainly haven't.

And if that were true, why would people still be paying for it now?

There's a parasocial aspect to onlyfans since you can dm the person, and they often take requests.

I have. You just need to search a bit harder... I guess 🤷... I've even got them bookmarked, they release regularly.

Porn and OF are essentially two separate things though.

Sex workers do work and they should be paid for it, because it’s just work. OF creators often exploit desperate peoples’ emotions to take their money.

People watch porn to beat their meat and satisfy a physical urge, whereas a lot of people subscribe to OF for a fake connection that only worsens and warps their view of a healthy relationship.

If you wanna pay for Brazzers then go for it, if you’re simping for an OF creator who’s happy to just take your money then that’s sad.

How is porn the same as being with a real live human being 🤨? Sure, I can understand (up to a point... I wouldn't do it) paying for sex, but for porn 🤨... I mean, even if I did really liked something about this specific girl, nah, I wouldn't pay. She's basically selling something that hundreds of people will buy, not just me. And even if it was just me, that's not an IRL experience. I MIGHT pay for a real world sexual experience (very unlikely though), but for a fake one? No way!
