OnlyFans Will Ban Pornography Starting in October

[tonythepreggoPony]

Onlyfans basically shot themselves in the foot with this debacle. Not only will investors not be interested, many models have already applied for competitors.

Them not responding until a week later didn't help either. They've done nothing in terms of damage control.

Yet the sex workers have no problem hanging out in public, eating out & going to events & "super spreader" events.

Could you link to a source for this? Because I'm looking at this dumbass Sturgis Rally right now and thinking maybe those people are the problem.

I read articles where in public & private schools: once parents found out a kid has a sex worker mom.. the school made her choose-> "delete ur acc or ur kids will be expelled." Kids got expelled.

OK, that's a problem with society - not with the sex workers or their children. You see that, right?

A sex workers place isn't clean. There's probably cum stains on the couch, remote, chairs, beds, door knobs.

Dude... what? You know sex workers have to keep super clean so they don't catch shit from their nasty-ass clients, right? Diseases cost money to cure, and time spent not earning. And viruses can end your career, depending. Hygiene is critical for them.

I also stopped shaking hands years ago.. cus people have sex with those hands

Well, sex or not, shaking hands is a disgusting habit anyway and it's best we moved past it as a species. Fist bumps are cool.

I have an FAA Part 107 Certificate.  This nifty little card proudly declares that I can legally make money in the USA by flying small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS, or drones to you civilians.)  However, I am currently *NOT* flying drones.  Want to know why?  Because the vast majority of jobs that I can find that aren't Northrop Grumman or General Atomics (IE, linked directly to Government / Department of Defense UAS programs) fall into one of the following categories (and more often multiple)

1: Not full time.
    Sorry, I'm looking for a Full Time Job.  I'm not looking for part time, on call, gig work type stuff.  There are people who CAN make a living off of that, but I am not one of them.  And given the amount of listings that I've seen for the same companies, for YEARS, no one else wants it either.  Basically, UBER but for drones.  Fuck that shit.

2: They aren't looking for a drone operator.
    These listings are, IMHO, the absolute WORST. 
                "We need you to know how to work a multimeter, be able to troubleshoot, have experience with design and fabrication - "  Hold up you little shit.  You want someone that can help you design, test, and build your drones.  You don't want a pilot, you want an R&D guy who can ALSO fly it.
                "Needs to be familiar with GIS, TRIMBLE GPS, a few other things I can't remember off the top of my head and I'm not going to look up for this post."  Fuck off, asswipe:  You're looking for a LICENSED SURVEYOR who also *HAPPENS* to have a drone license.
    They all market themselves as "Drone Operator" or "UAS Pilot" but when you dig into the requisite qualifications, they don't want a pilot.  They want a Specialist who can also fly.  False fucking advertising.

3: They don't pay enough. 

Right now I live in Central Texas.  I drive concrete mixer trucks:  those commercial vehicles with the spinning drum on the back.  Starting pay for my company for a brand new mixer driver is $19/hour.  Why the fuck am I going to take a position for $14/hr?

Yes, I know this discussion started off on Onlyfans and the Porn ban, but it's devolved into an economic discussion.  And that's where I'm putting in my $0.02 USD.  I know my value.  I know the cost of living in my area.  I know the CoL in and around major cities like Houston, Austin, DFW, etc is higher than what I'm currently experiencing.  People aren't taking all of these shit jobs because they are that" shit jobs.  The job itself may be all fine and well, but when the compensation for your hard work is shit, the job is shit.  The pandemic has highlighted, in ways never before seen, how much of a shit economy the US has when a single individual working 40+ hours can barely support themselves, much less a family?  Oh yeah, the stock market is doing terrific?  Fuck the Stock Market.  Most Americans I know have nothing to do with the Stock market outside of some company sponsored 401K that could go tits up just as easily as anything else. 

The reason people aren't taking these jobs is because THEY CAN'T FUCKING LIVE OFF OF THEM.  Not without devoting more than the 40 hrs a week that qualifies as a "full time job."  What's the cutoff?  50 hours?  60?  how aobut 70 hours a week, 6 days a week?  Do you like going home to your family?  Do you like having a full fucking weekend to relax and unwind after busting your balls all week?  Yeah, good luck with that, when you're spending 12+ hours a day at work, at least 5 days a week.  Some people have 2 jobs just to make ends meet, or both parents in a household work. 

And just for your information, being in the construction industry, I don't have a day off on Saturday.  It might be a half day of work (7-8 hours.)  Oh, by the way: by Texas DoT regulations I can work up to 15 hours a day, and am only *REQUIRED* to be given 8 hours OFF THE CLOCK before my next driving shift.  So far this week, I've clocked 50 hours.  In 4 days.  Doesn't leave much room for a social or family life.  But, I'm single and I spend a lot of my time online, if I'm awake enough or have enough time between shifts.  The *ONLY* reason I haven't left this job is because I haven't found another one that I'm qualified for that pays anywhere near the same rate, but with less hours per week.

Pay people a living wage - something that you can reasonably sustain yourself off of for a week's work (40-50 hours over 5 days) for the area your employees work in (and therefore it's reasonable to presume they live in as well.)  It's not because of porn.  It's because of the fact that companies have gotten used to not raising wages to match inflation for fucking DECADES.  And the cost of goods and services has ALSO outstripped inflation for DECADES.  The greedy fuckers at the top - and even in the middle - are starting to finally see the fruits of their ill-gotten gains:  people won't take jobs when said jobs won't reasonably sustain fucking existing.

Fuck off with the whole "porn is why people won't work" angle.  It's complete bullshit.  The problem is far larger than "porn did it" and far more complicated.

By the way, here's a fantastic clip about a bank CEO being taken to ropes about the starting pay his company offers his employees. 
hxxps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WLuuCM6Ej0

I wouldn't go to work at that bank.  They don't pay enough for a starting employee to live off of, even without a child.  Rent, utilities, food, clothes, transportation.  If the basic pay, at 40 hours a week can't cover those 5 items, it's a shit job.  if I have to slave away for 50-60 hours just so the overtime can make ends meet, it's a shit job.  Employers better figure out how to pay more, or rightfully go out of business because no one wants to work at a place that they can't sustain their own lives with.  And on top of that, if you don't earn enough to more than make ends meet (have a little surplus after your Life Sustainment Expenses are taken care of) then why work there?  If I can't afford to go out to eat at a fancy restaurant once a month .... hell, we all know people who smoke or drink alcohol.  Gotta pay for that somehow.  I play video games: I need to pay for my internet, as well as any electronic entertainment I enjoy.  How can I buy those things when shit jobs won't even pay me enough to fucking *LIVE*?

Porn has long had a vocal minority who are morally opposed to the industry, even though selling sexual services in one form or another has got to be the oldest profession known to the human race.  People have been decrying porn for decades.  It's got absolutely nothing to do with the current US "We can't attract new employees!" crisis.

THIS thank you!!!!

Dude, @Thechickenlawyer , I’m really having trouble trying to discern whether you’re just trolling to get a reaction at this point or if you actually don’t shake hands just because of people jerking off and crap lol. Most decent people wash their hands, outside of COVID.

Either way, you’ve been debunked several times now. Just stop scapegoating and go on with your life. Sex-work isn’t hurting you one bit. Like I’ve mentioned before, you’re probably a hypocrite and enjoy such everyday. I’ve known plenty of sex-workers who are moms and can balance out this profession while also having another job at the time or just take care of the kids.

I think you’re far too concerned and egotistical about how other people should live their lives. Let people do whatever the hell they want as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone. Non-aggression principle, bud.

[LTKNT101]

My bad about getting upset about sex "workers". They can do whatever they want. Who needs college & high school? Just lie to their parents & make an account at 15. Having an ego is too much work. Yes I'm serious about why I don't shake hands. Stopped shaking hands at age 6. I'd literally tell people "I know what you did with that, I'm not touching it". Being concerned about how others live their lives is what Republicans think about. People can do what they want as long as it doesn't reflect poorly on their family or kids.

I do my work from home, watch TV, use my laptops (I have 4 of them) & I eat ma food & watch night TV before I go to bed & I have my weekends off. Someday I'm going to hire someone that makes a program for me that: scans someone's porn social media & sends it to the principle in the schools the mom's kids go to.

Trolling alert!!! My friends, it is time to hit that ignore button.

You’re seriously just an asshole lol. Really? Many times I’ve debated you without getting emotionally compromised, but this? Seriously? I know you’re probably not serious but good luck with a blackmail charge if you ever do something as low as that. Yes, blackmail is illegal no matter the context in many jurisdictions. Also, doxxing people like that is illegal. You’re legitimately giving people the knowledge that you’re an online predator with a threat like that.

At this point just shut the fuck up and rub one out, why don’t you? If you ever have the insane idea to go through with that and you aren’t trolling, I hope you get what you deserve.

@Admin and @pregphil, you two should legitimately take a look at this. We don’t need someone like this on our site even if it was an empty threat.

Crap like that shouldn’t be joked around about like it isn’t serious and could potentially ruin or damage someone’s life.

[Lucifer Morningstar]

Sorry, but you can’t do anything to convince me otherwise that potentially doxxing and blackmailing people is justified @Thechickenlawyer .

I don’t take threats like that lightly. Especially when a model like Scarlett has been a victim to the same kind of screwed up shit like that.

[quasa2]

I'm confused are they banning porn now or not?

[Lucifer Morningstar]

I'm confused are they banning porn now or not?

Nah, they suspended their new changes. So porn is staying on there for now.

Don't know who Scarlett is but I've heard about Doxxing. 1 of my fave singers had that happen to her (some hacker released her apartment address & phone number so she was forced to move & change her number.) I wasn't trying to make any threats. I'm genuinely sorry. I'd be mad if everyone knew where I lived if I was a model. I hope to still be on this site after my lunch break is over. I never said anything is justified. I live in a state where Republicans are trying to make it near impossible for black people to vote.

So why make the threat of leaking someone’s private life to their kid’s principal of their school? Like seriously, the mental gymnastics you had to take for that. Blackmail and doxxing are illegal. You can say sorry, but I can’t trust someone that makes a threat of that nature online.

We’ve had far too many cases of creeps on here ruining things, and I’m not going to let it happen again if I have any say about it. You’ll have to explain yourself to the mods here. It’s not my place to make the decision to ban you. But if I were them, I would. That’s how I feel.
