A new study published in the journal Sexuality & Culture has found that many adolescents in Spain, including those as young as 12, are not only aware of OnlyFans but also see it as a viable and even empowering way to make money. In group discussions with over 160 teenagers, researchers discovered that platforms promoting erotic content are influencing how young people—especially girls—view economic opportunity, self-worth, and sexuality. Teens frequently framed content creation as a personal choice or expression of agency, while minimizing the risks.
Do OF models need a degree to start modeling?
My point is we as a society would rather see our young population do OF than pay for their college and ensure they have a positive outcome in life that benefits of society. Should a degree be less appealing to individuals on mass than showing your body online? We need fucking teachers magnitudes more than OF models. But when you suggest rasing taxes so people can become teachers, doctors, artist, photographers, parents, electricians, etc. People are opting for~$200 month on OF. A Degree should be valuable again. Not because it qualifies you for a job but it shows you put in work to learn something greater than yourself. Our nation is dead because we don’t care. Someone pointing out that there are more people fucking themselves literally on camera, while millions of students have a unqualified teacher (because there’s been a 40 year teacher shortage in America no one talks about, so poor schools literally have people who only passed a background check teaching math), overcrowded classes, and underpaid/under supported teachers and staff. But Ya you don’t need a degree to start modeling, thank you for pointing out the obvious.
“Our society is dead” because enough of them would rather earn the degree and/or teach to make up the difference, particularly vs the vast majority of OF models who aren’t making anything close to a livable, or even minimum, wage for their efforts.
Honestly though, I doubt there are more OF models making a decent amount of money than there are teachers, just yet.
American teachers no longer need a degree in some states.
Copy that sentence and search for yourself.
I am aware. But it is not the norm. The point being is that OPs conclusion and logic train is deeply flawed. The numbers do not “prove” the downfall of society but rather simply that one “job” has a barrier to entry and the other does not.
