I think it is more that they have lots of competition. OF takes a huge cut if you are a small creator and 99% of ladies are in that category. I don't think guys go surfing OF looking for girls to sponsor. They find girls in other media, Facebook, Instagram or such and find these girls jave accounts. OFs competitors generally give much better margins on small creators, so many of the girls who aren't semi celebrities are going alttech.

my hypothesis is that it was a boom and bust. How long do you think men can spend a year's income in a month on some e-girl before their life is screwed and they don't have any money left. Basically, the cash reserves of lonely desperate men has been drained.

[@Metaldude1945]

[@pwalker1360]

It isn't just that, it's also that the initial rush of spending on an e-girl or whatever starts to fade as time goes on. I used to do that with video games but now I never buy anything at full price (if at all). I used to get that rush of buying a physical box and opening it. The novelty wears off.

[@Cbd_7ohm]

It goes a lot deeper than that. The male rats that don't have a chance to breed in the latter part of the first rat utopia experiment (disproportionately way more non-chads than chads of course) experiment either stay indoors and stare at the walls all day, become hyper sexual and sexually aggressive (sometimes with other males), and/or may become gay. The female mice started to do poorer and poorer jobs raising the young and either stopped mating or mated abnormally with no family structure. Also, some rats became violent. Male mice and rats having sex with the female causes them to be non-aggressive towards the young but lack of sex causes a default aggressive behavior.

I was one of those guys paying for OF and I mostly agree with you. However, the other reason is the blatant hatred of women towards men. The first time I used the platform the girls were actually somewhat kind and put effort into forming some sort of connection with you. Now you're either talking to a bot, a man behind a screen, or a girl that copies and pastes content. Lonely men burn cash on stupid things, but they're not idiots. Plus, with the uncertainty of the job market and many young men checking out from the workforce, more attention is being put towards things of value, not short-term pleasure.

The OF girls' incomes may have fallen because demand (male customers) declined but I think it's more likely that the supply of girls on the platform drastically increased so the incomes of the early adopters fell. The simps are simply spreading their income over a greater number of girls.

Men are also retreating into the workforce and having less interactions with women in the workplace. Men are tired of the minefield and also seeing unqualified women getting jobs (which men have to work harder to fill gaps) and then getting preferential treatment and promotions. Without men there to prop them up, it's going to be hard for them to get future promotions. And companies, I suspect, are seeing this too and we've already seen indications that women aren't being hired as much as they were in the past.

AI will wreck women, taking their jobs AND their simps..

[@jonyD143]

​@@infectaphibian Damn that's an underrated take for sure. Soft jobs are gone, capitalizing on your sexuality will be too challenging against AI. Give it 5-7 years.

Why have 1 gf when you can have thousands of stacies in a cyberpunk setting. This robot gf narrative is childish.

Hard to say, I think a lot of men are hoping women get their karma, but I think it's more likely men and women go down together and no one wins.

[@ljr6723]

The OF market has already been saturated with "creators." Those who would sell simps a dream, have been sold a dream themselves. Aside from a few at the top the players have been played.

The simp money is running out due to sky high inflation

[@dedeborya9015]

At some point in the market - non participation becomes the best options - the opportunity cost of participation is heavier and harder cost in stress and bullshiate that outweighs the money outlay. I will push to the Economics of Thoreau - Minimalism, Civil Disobedience, Strict Non Compliance / Laying Flat / Opting Out / Walking Away *DRIzzLe DRIzzLe*

[@dedeborya9015]

spending per subscriber is interesting ... what is more effective - WHAT is the spending life cycle event horizon; at what point of money out lay for minimal / no return is the tap out number .... and in the real world - what is the number of flaky, shallow, late banal girl that makes men just opt out of dating ....

[@dedeborya9015]

For me - 3 dates - $132.48 - if I ain't getting the cookie by either of those - I tapped out.... and eventually - the whole waste of time money effort - it was smarter to just relocate overseas

[@ethosterros9430]

I heard that some guys are now spending thousands of dollars on ai and probably feel good about it since they have an on demand custom user experience with interactions catered to their emotional needs as opposed to begging random women to pay attention to them while pissing money down the toilet. joker's article had a dude spending 120k a year on ai. It's ridiculous but at least it's not money being pissed away into a thots pocket, like it's better in a programmers pocket.

[@joejett5084]

Can’t even say this is bottom of the barrel activities. It’s like looking for water but drinking piss instead. It’s not hard to find water. Worst case scenario you’ll wait until it rains and that’s water falling from the sky. Hoflation has made it drizzle drizzle.

Can one somehow invest in the simp market? I mean, can I "short" the Simp market? 😅

[@Ryderman2000]

[@hv3115]

You would lose if you did. ALWAYS bet on male s impery in the long term. Cappy is completely wrong. The only reason OF girls have seen their incomes shrink is because of rising inflation. S imps had to make the hard choice to pay rent and eat over squandering their money on e-thots. Even s imps have to prortize life and death survival over s imping.

[@rene19751]

Don’t forget the AI influence. Also women lose their backup plan... and that is very terrifying to them

Yeah, this is about inflation and the current economy.. not about s imps learning anything. Turns out even s imps need to eat and pay rent first before s imping.

AI girlfriends and AI only fans is a bright new world.

[@namelessdude207]

I think it could be several reason together: 1.) Simp Money has run out 2.)AI Girlfirend (heard that either 50% or 80% have tried it out at least once) 3.)To much Competition made everyone equally poor (only the top 1% or less can live from solely OF) 4.)Recession? (at least Inflation hit hard) 5.)People are giving up on their "hope(delusion)" of a potential girlfriend P.S.: I am no expert or anything like that. That is just what I heard from several different sources here and there.

[@namelessdude207]

It could also be a post-covid recovery thing. Less Isolation = Less Lonliness = Less Simping = Less OF income

Risk of STDs? Shady middlemen? Two sacks of meat hitting each other? Men don't choose OF simply because they want to get off, they choose it because they want some sort of intimacy with a woman, as fake as it may be.

[@Apoc5k]

It was fairly delulu to believe that paying to see these women gave them some sort of relationship when essentially they're paying for something they can get for free.

I’m into the Korean rental scene in the west coast. Avg $300/hr, GFE or PSE. There’s been lots of Japanese girls working in the US due to the horrific yen exchange rate. It’s ultra cheap for us now, 153 yen to 1 usd. So yea, that’s never happened before. These are technically called apartment Asian massage parlors. I ran books for one house two years ago.

Men are slow because we keep hoping for the best, even when you can start to feel or see something not right. We are slow because chose to ignore it and hope for the best. I am hoping most the simps are smartening up and rather spend their money on them selves, the gym, protein and supplements.

[@mjohnsen8606]

The 304-simp ratio is leaning way more towards the 304 side these days. So there simply aren't enough supply of simps to satisfy the fast-growing emergence of 304s. Economic downturn is also impacting the number of simps who are starting to realize that spending $1,000s on 304s does not increase their happiness. Investing in dog and cat food shows greater promise, as over time more women will throw away good relationships to end up single with pets.

[@outootus6734]

[@gordongekko2781]

Another factor: many men that may have otherwise become simps are instead going overseas where their dollars go further. If you're okay being a beta provider, then why not do it for a younger, hotter girl who has more traditional values and actually appreciates her man?

[@OrwellsHousecat]

I saw a news report about the homelessness in USA. They said "it takes 100 hours/week at minimum wage to afford to live". It strikes me that, a couple, each working 50 hours, can indeed afford to live, and that's precisely what we used to do not so long ago. But the wmn don't want to work their share, and the men can't afford to carry passengers on their backs. Together, they could afford to get by, but alone they're both homeless. Men would rather live on the street than with a wmn.
