The Lonely Fans of OnlyFans

Disrupting the dating market and alluring both men and women, OnlyFans and services like it have changed the internet forever. Each day more people decide they are ready to become a model, showcasing their bodies for the chance at a lucrative source of income, the men follow suit. I interviewed models and fans alike only to discover a dark thread tying them together.

"I think we're monetizing loneliness" This line struck hard. I never thought of onlyfans members being people so desperate for attention they'd pay for it. I only ever perceived them as horny people who aren't satisfied with free porn. In some way I can sort of understand them, crippling loneliness does make you do whatever it takes to feel like someone cares again.

[@GhostsOnHoliday]

That was mentioned many times. The, I assume American guy, talked about how he didn't take a chance with a girl because it might not work out, and he was guaranteed attention from OnlyFans.

[@theclimbto1]

I have a friend who breaks down why he uses prostitution. I'm not against prostitution, I just don't engage in it. Because to me it's less about the physical act and more about the connection, the chase, the back and forth. To him, it's simply a transaction. He wants a sexual release, he pays for it, done.

[@SuperPowerButton]

The story about the dude who chose only fans over talking to the girl he liked was sad as hell. These guys are trapped in a cycle of lonelyness/social isolation and they feel safer in that bubble than trying to change their situation.

introversion and shyness are always put in the same camp but are two very different things introversion: you're self reflective and more in tune with your personal intuition by nature but otherwise have no problem expressing yourself shyness: having your social ability being impeded by anxiety or fear caused by some external factor just think of the difference between james bond and piglet from winnie the pooh

[@Gaphalor]

Yes intoversion is just a normal character trait, which also can make you more focused on your personal development, on your mental health etc. Extroversion doesnt automaticly makes you likeable or socially succesful either! Some extroverts just go on everybodys nerve. I think what he meant was confidence and selfrespect or the lack of it, which has nothing to do with extroversion/introversion!

[@xxghastlytonerxx]

Introvertion doesn’t equate being socially handicapped, nothing is absolute. I’m an introvert, I’m against the monetization of loneliness, but I’m not gonna pretend that my social awkwardness wasn’t my biggest struggle growing up. Being an introvert doesn’t make you socially handicapped, but it makes it HIGHLY likely.

[@iFireender]

Problem is, most people that call themselves introverted actually are socially inept/unsuccessful. If you're an introvert, you CHOOSE not to hang out with your friends every day. You CHOOSE to go in your room and close the door instead of having it open, being potentially interrupted by other people. Most actual introverts that didn't dive deeply into it would say they're "somewhere in between". An Introvert still has friends, an Introvert still has romantic pursuits, an Introvert still likes to hang out with people. It's just that an extrovert basically fills all the free time they have with it, whereas an introvert chooses that time very consciously. You're not an introvert if you have no friends, feel lonely, and have nobody to talk about your problems to. You're lonely. Maybe you're a lonely introvert, but you're primarily lonely. I can spend days isolated in a room just with a connection to the internet, even if I was cut off from people I know, but if I had nobody I could talk to, to hang out with when I FELT like it, I would be lonely.

[@supergingerr]

@Twinblades Thats exactly what it is, introverts are people who feel drained after being with large groups of people and gain energy back from being alone. Its because of how their brain responds to dopamine. You can absolutely be an introvert with high social skills/status it just means you may avoid social events because it leaves you feeling exhausted and drained. I'm an introvert and I'll still go to large social events and enjoy them its just that after I need to decompress and recharge. Introverts can and do still enjoy parties its just that they need time to recharge after. Also you can be an introvert who likes throwing parties or being on stage, introvert and extravert aren't always exclusive terms. Your describing someone who is antisocial, and some introverts may be antisocial. You can be a bad introvert if you let that part of your personality negatively effect your life, then it becomes a problem and can lead to becoming antisocial.

[@brendalee1215]

Honestly this more shows the sadness and loneliness many men are facing in today's society to the point it's unhealthy. They're indulging in something that hooks you in a false ideal of companionship. Although I don't want to hate on onlyfan girls and other girls that offer companionship for money but they're often more shallow and view their audience as lesser than them even if lonely guys are their source of cash. Of course it's not all of them but I've seen this quite often.

[@enggigg6644]

Well men have no value beyond their achievements in life is just the way it is and nothing in this world is ever going to change that.Most of these men haven’t really achieved es much thus in society’s eyes they are seen as virtually nothing so they are worth nothing .If most of this men where to die tomorrow nobody would really give a shit apart of maybe perhaps their family but for most they are invisible and to women they might as well not even exist lol.This is the cruel reality we live in nobody gives a shit so is better to find a healthy way to come to terms with one’s happiness and if any man wants to have any hope of getting a women in life then is key they strive for great things and achieve them even if this things are just becoming muscular and physically attractive along with having a decent paying job which is the bear minimum requirements to find a even half decent female partner in modern society.Either one accepts reality for what it is and plays the great game or you reject reality and end up a bitter lonely incel.

The reason why OnlyFans and other lonely bait even exists is because we aren't being educated about what to do when we're lonely from an early age.

Might be asking for a lot but is it really that hard for them to reach out to the unpopular kid?

[@Mrjmaxted0291]

That would require teachers to stick their neck out for students and be more involved in their personal lives, which isn't going to happen for a number of reasons, but certainly not while their own livelihood is so insecure. Besides, most modern western parents would be deeply uncomfortable with the prospect of their children opening up to their teacher and trusting them enough to share their innermost thoughts with them. That kind of scenario would almost certainly create an awkward situation where teachers will find themselves having to constructively criticise parents on the way they raise their own children, which will definitely result in a great many unhappy parents. There will also be dilemmas such as children sharing information with teachers that even parents are in the dark about. Who is the teacher obligated to prioritise in this scenario? Do they violate the student's trust by sharing their secrets with their parents or are they ultimately performing a service for the parents and are consequently responsible to them? There's no clear answer to this question. Besides, asking more of teachers would exacerbate the need for teaching staff, as demands on teachers are already approaching human limits. If you want them to now manage the emotional lives of their students as well then you'll need to split the work load amongst an ever greater work force of teachers and assistants, as well as retrain educational staff at all levels to accommodate these new priorities.

Incredible Video. Here's an interesting factoid I've encountered in my own life: My coworker is roommates with Riley Reid's assistant, who runs her OnlyFans account. Riley is never the one personally responding to the DMs being sent. She has a list of canned responses (and video responses) that her assistant sends based on certain DM topics. To this day, she's said that nobody has realized they're not personalized responses. It's possible that the interaction these fans are searching for is even less genuine than they realize.

Absolutely awful, nothing positive has ever came out of onlyfans.

[@ThatCrazyKid0007]

I mean it's only inevitable. As your fan base increases and the appeal for the majority is one on one interaction, in order to sustain their revenue, it becomes virtually impossible to keep up hundreds of conversations on your own, every day. Even if you did it for free and literally out of the kindness of your heart to keep company of these lonely people, keeping up with so many conversations at once becomes nearly impossible and downright unsustainable as time progresses with serious mental and social fatigue at play. So getting someone to help out and 'pretend' to be you is completely expected.

1. I have considered one Onlyfans a few times. I'm into elements of BDSM and there's a particular domme I like who doesn't have too much content around for free, and I like her voice. Not going to subscribe though. It's a step in the wrong direction, for starters. I can meet and talk to girls interested in BDSM, do online roleplay, discuss interests, get comfortable talking about sex with similar minded and lonely people, without paying someone to PRETEND to be interested, for a start. Secondly, I'd rather pursue another relationship for real. Past failings and unsatisfactory experiences shouldn't put me off trying again, and getting something better and more fulfilling. I should have more confidence in my appearance and personality, and know that the BDSM community is also very friendly and happy to teach and provide help to newcomers, with plenty of opportunity to meet people. 2. Damn am I glad I understood Evangelion. That series is more relevant now than it's ever been, and I'm very thankful for it. I was in a bad spot with loneliness, depression and a lot of internal pain for several years. That shit shook me up inside, made things worse for a bit, but allowed me to start putting them together again, better than before. Highly recommend for people struggling with the same issues.

I think onlyfans is a sad reflection of our society

[@GoldenHairErik]

Sex work is an art form like any other. Taking good nudes involves setting, lighting, angles, posture, expression, theming etc. Online sex work and erotic content can also meet the needs of different sexual niches that are not commonly understood or accepted by mainstream society. As long as it features consenting adults, online sex work is a perfectly valid and ethical form of online recreation and often artistic expression. OnlyFans is a brilliant innovation and one of the best things to happen to the medium. Sex workers finally have an easy platform to create the kind of content they want to on their own terms without catering to a few major studios that often devalue their work. It's also allowed workers who are uncomfortable with the complications of live camming to still connect with their audience on a more intimate level. Sex work is real work as much as any other arts and entertainment career. You might say that its a sad reflection of our society that some people take interest in a parasocial/web-based sexual relationship, but i could just as easily say that about any number of video games that simulate anything resembling real life. Are people not allowed to like simulating things or watching things that aren't actually there in front of them in real life? I'm a big consumer of porn and erotic content and I think that there's a community of sex workers and sex work appreciators that is really positive. You don't need to be sexually inactive or lonely to also enjoy online sexual content and pornography. Subscribing to an OnlyFans does not mean you are a sad person. It means you like porn and you like supporting the sex workers who make it. Sure, people can become unhealthily codependent on a parasocial relationship with an online sex worker, but the potential for something to be abused does not mean it's a bad thing. I can abusechocolate by eating several kilograms of chocolate in one sitting, does that mean chocolate is inherently bad for you or wrong in some way? Is it a sad reflection of our society that people eat chocolate just because some people take it too far and end up harming themselves? Would our society be better without chocolate, or would it be better if we educated people on having healthy relationships with indulgences like porn and chocolate? The History Channel is a much sadder reflection of our society than OnlyFans.

I think a more accurate statement is "I think we are monetizing laziness." Onlyfans is the focus of the video, but think about KZbin itself. KZbin promotes channels and videos that upload more frequently, which means the videos that end up on people's radars are vlogs, reddit meme videos, or commentary videos. Meanwhile, people who do animations, video essays, high end video editing get little to no returns simply because the market does not favor those content creators. If you want an example, Pyrocynical. He has stated before that he enjoys making hour long videos talking in depth about movies and video games in a video essay format, but he can't do those because his income is heavily reliant on KZbin and he has to go with what the website favors, which is shorter, 10 minute or so videos churned out frequently. It really is an extreme example of "Work smarter, not harder." I mean, if all you have to do is lose your clothes and take some risque photos, and chat with people to make an income that rivals doctors or lawyers, why not?

[@zerocolours8470]

I noticed a lot of people in the comments saying things along the lines of, "lonely, attention-starved men" but I think this a two way street that impacts everyone. People, in general, are having trouble finding meaningful relationships and it's because it stems from them having little self-worth. They're putting the onus on another person to give them worth, which is why I disagreed with the, "get a real girl==light at the end of the tunnel" message the video espoused. Just getting a real-life relationship isn't the solution. The major issue of a lack of self-worth is still there. If these people break up, won't it be just as likely that they'll go back to onlyfans style content--hurt by relationships once again? What if AI and robotic technology developed so that a person could get their own personal, robot AI girlfriend?Judging by the booming onlyfans content, I can only imagine how big such a service would be. No, the issue here is that people are attempting to derive self-worth from others. You, as a person, have intrinsic value. Maybe you're socially awkward, maybe you don't have a job and live as a NEET. Whatever negatives are bringing you down does not deteriorate your value as a person. The quicker people start appreciating the good, even if they think it's small or non-existent, within themselves, the more likely they can take the small steps to improving themselves and becoming better people--ones who can connect with others.

[@I3lackEye]

I didn't know how much I needed to hear this. But thank you

[@MoistyRain]

I do agree on the idea that self worth is deteriorating as we go further along, but unfortunately when we are born in this day and age it is getting increasingly harder and harder to view your self worth as a person. With various ads (and its ilk) all claiming that you can be *blank* if you bought this product, it all points to the fictitious idea of basing your self worth on what you buy, what you own, and how good you look. These altruistic ideals are the norm, hence (as you stated) people who weren't accepted look for guaranteed self-validation. This may sound defeatist, but as simple shift in perspective isn't going to crumble what has been imposed on us since we were born. To selfishly declare "I have worth" is something so alien and extraneous to those who don't even understand what their 'good' qualities are.

@@MoistyRain I agree with you that our society doesn't encourage this. However, shifts in societal thought always have to start with someone--a single person. I know it can be hard, but being there for people who are down and spreading the ideas of inherent self-worth not tied to something material is empowering. Little by little, the more people who begin to adopt such a mindset, internalise it, and spread it to others can help society grow.

I've come to suspect introversion is caused by early childhood conditioning. The reason why socializing is draining and gets old is because all interactions are run through a proxy self, a shell personality. Similar to the false self of the narcissist. The reason for this is of course insulation and control, the cost is fatigue. This is why introverts do not get swept up in the moment, they (we) are watching their lives from the outside.

Not because it would be an actual substitute to a relationship, it would not fill the void in their lives, but most definitely would screw men's expectations towards women, how they should and shouldn't be and how to even interact with them, for example the reason why one has friends is because through life he interacted with others and learned what is and isn't appropriate, how to behave to make people like you etc. So as a functioning human being you learn you're not supposed to ramble over everyone just because you feel like talking, or start flamewars about politics or religion as nobody fucking cares about those topics besides neckbeards.
