OnlyFans is quickly gaining a reputation as a go-to platform for quality adult content from a wide range of users. While this may seem irrelevant to gaming, it’s actually one of the best things to happen to content creators – especially those who identify as women.
OnlyFans serves as a barrier, separating adult content from regular streaming or video content. Too many viewers believe they are entitled to NSFW content from streamers. Creating an alternative and, most vitally, safe space for those who choose to participate in sex work, alongside their regular content creation work, makes the boundaries very clear. That’s something all creators benefit from.
The Rise Of OnlyFans
The content subscription service OnlyFans was originally set up back in 2016, but has recently become more well known, thanks to its adoption by a number of models, influencers and creators. It’s a platform designed to help connect fans to influencers but it actually serves a different purpose than originally intended. Sex workers have begun to flock to the site, using it to distribute adult content to thirsty fans.
The site allows users to upload content while retaining their own copyright. A creator on the platform can only host personal images they own the rights to and anything posted is protected by the site’s terms and conditions from being distributed elsewhere. This means those posting intimate photos retain full control over their own images. Anyone with a creator’s account can also set their own prices for subscriptions as well as accepting tips, with OnlyFans simply taking a fixed percentage cut for the use of their platform.
These factors mean the site is a safe, secure, and easy way of distributing personal or adult related content of your own creation and being paid a fair price for it, making it beneficial for both user and creator. Users know they are paying the person they are connecting to and creators are earning an amount they feel is fair. The platform also has systems in place to ensure users on both sides are over 18 years of age and strict rules regarding underage or other illegal content.
Separating Personal From Public
Separating adult material from regular content by using a different platform also helps everyone maintain boundaries. It means that even creators like Amouranth, who has an OnlyFans account, can more easily remove the expectation to be explicit on stream, breaking platform terms & conditions.
Far too much toxicity online is centered around viewers asking female creators, in particular, to show more of their bodies, take off their clothes, and other such requests. Those who stream wearing anything that isn’t a high necked top or hoodie are especially vulnerable to this, with entitled viewers feeling they “deserve” to be shown more skin.
The hope is that a platform like OnlyFans will help separate regular content creation from sex work and the production of explicit images. Those who want to make extra money from selling whatever personal images they wish now have a safe place to do so and a nice big divider to separate it from regular work.
Sex work is nothing to be ashamed of, but it’s not something anyone should be forced into or feel under pressure to participate in. Having a space to share personal and explicit images in a closed and secure platform, allows those who choose to pursue this line of work to be safe and in control. This is vital for all concerned.
The Way Forward
OnlyFans’ rise in popularity will hopefully bring in a new way for sex workers to retain control and for all creators to feel more confident in keeping regular work more PG-13 without a backlash. The hope is that it will also reduce a lot of the stigma around producing adult material.
Sex work is often an extra to regular work and the separation of platforms helps keeps it that way. No one should be forced into sex work and no one should feel pressured to participate in the production of adult material. Likewise, those that choose to view are also given more reassurance, knowing that the majority of their money is going directly to the content creator.
OnlyFans has helped create a space that works well for both creators and viewers, so here’s hoping the platform helps all creators be free to create the content they want, whatever it may be. We’d also love to see the separation of regular and explicit content put up a big barrier and firm distinction that reduces unwanted sexually explicit comments aimed at streamers.
