The titles to all of these are stupid and fake.
“Are these tits too small?” posted to tinytits
“Where oh where can I find an older guy with a dadbod willing to fuck me???” on every fucking street, in every bar, and at every work place, ever
I guess it’s more successful than “If you like me naked, you can pay to see more.”
I try not to let it annoy me too much, and I console myself by looking at them naked. They’ve gotta make a living, and I imagine it’s not easy. shrug You’re not wrong, but I’d be surprised if any title here is authentic.
Standing out in the crowd of “self-empowered” sex-workers/porn stars trying to fight the algorithm’s appetite for new things probably isn’t the easiest thing in the world.
My hope is that the influx created by OnlyFans and its clones will help normalize sex work into a state where no-one bats an eye if someone posted themselves online to make a living when they were young and fit.
Reality is still that a lot of people prey upon this kind of thing and past life choices can ruin future careers.
It's engagement farming.
Notice how they're all questions? The way this works on other social media is you ask something in a community that most people will have an opinion on, but frame it opposite to that opinion (e.g. the tiny tits question), and that will give you a bunch of engagement through comments which tells the algorithm the post is more interesting so it pushes the post higher to raise visibility to keep people on the site longer to view more ads.
The thing is, Lemmy does not have an algorithm like that, so it's pointless to do here.
-serious-
I would ask you what you plan to do when you are definitely too old for porn; most women leave porn at a fairly young age, so it's not something that you can realistically expect to do for many years. Working as a dancer tends to be very hard on your body; I've known a few dancers that are in their 40s now, and they all have chronic injuries (and I'm married to one; her back and hips are wrecked).
Moreover, porn is one of those things that tends to stick around. If you become popular enough as an actress, it's likely that people will recognize your face in real life, or connect your real life identity to your acting career. Weebs are incredibly good at ferreting out details about people that work in porn, and picking up identifying characteristics (esp. tattoos!) in porn actresses that they can connect to real people. That, in turn, tends to cause significant impact on your career choices, and HR departments are often not going to be on your side. Employers tend to fire people that they discover have worked in porn in the past, because they don't want the attention that comes with it, even when you're an exemplary employee. Cops, firefighters, teachers, nurses/doctors, et al. have all lost careers because of doing porn in their youth.
Beyond that, a not insignificant number of mid- and high-level porn actresses end up also working as escorts, because the industry overall doesn't pay very well. Entry level pay might be a couple hundred bucks for a scene, which sounds great, except that you're not working every single day, or even every week. Or month. A very small number of people that have OnlyFans accounts make an enormous amount of money; most make little to none, while still having their images and videos disseminated all over the internet via piracy.
All of this can play hell on your personal life too, since--broadly speaking--most people are not interested in having a serious, long-term romantic relationship with someone that has worked in the adult entertainment industry.
None of this is fair or right, but the west tends to be fairly sex-negative, and that's the reality that we have to deal with.
