First of all, “excellent read,” indeed.
I don’t really have anything more to add to her points.
But I wish this woman the best life she can have, and for more to listen to her.
Second.
I’d consider myself a lonely guy.
Is it weird I have zero interest in “roleplaying” calls like this for free? Much less paying a dollar a minute?
Same with guys that spend on OF models.
…Even my inner, depraved self just does not understand the appeal. Like I get roleplaying, I’ve written out/imagined elaborate fantasies, I get the appeal of the submissive angle, but I do not understand why other guys seek this out on such a phone call or text chain. And clearly it’s me misunderstanding something, as these services have an absolutely enormous customer base.
Of all the things that didn't happen, this didn't happen the most.
You ~~poor sweet summer child~~ absolute buffoon
Bro this exact brand of loser makes daily Hellsite posts about how their AI girlfriends won't agree with them because of woke
This really reinforces my belief that a lot of right wing Nazi's are just hiding behind this ideology because they don't like something they consider major about themselves. You want to be dommed by a woman? Cool, literally not a big deal. You want to dress as a woman? Do it. You want to be Humiliated? Great, pay your fee or find a consenting partner and have at it! Stop fucking living in shame.
I know living in shame has a lot more to it than that. I just feel like if people could be themselves, there would be far less hate in the world.
"Just stop being \(depressed\|ashamed\|poor\|traumatized\|compulsive\)! Easy. Why do you cause yourself so many problems?"
I never said it was easy. But people need to make an effort as well. Don't hang out with people who will treat you like shit for being yourself, I know some circumstances you can't but your friends aren't your friends if they don't actually like YOU. Therapy is great for most people as well.
Like the writer of this article, I have worked in the same space. I myself did not do Only Fans but, I was an assistant to someone who did. I did promo and stuff for them across multiple platforms. Most men would say fairly quick into conversions with her that they can't be themselves in front of their friends/family.
When she did challenge them on that, they were completely unwilling to open up to literally anyone in their lives even if they thought those people would be supportive. I'm just saying, if people make an effort through community support, therapy, self work etc. Society will be better.
You're a hair away from "and they should pull themselves up by their bootstraps"
Article is in the correct sub. Thanks for sharing
I made three lines: an inexpensive chat line, a comparatively expensive role-playing line, and a line for flirty online chess games. This last one was my friend's suggestion; special interests sometimes made for lucrative niches (no one ever called).
Your friend is currently devastated to learn he is literally alone in his niche.
EDIT: another banger quote:
Like their forebears, the gooners' focus is also on surrendering control such that they feel forced to do what they want to do anyway; it's just that what today's young progressives want to do is a lot closer to nothing at all.
It's funny how universal the desire is to be told you have permission to do what you want to do anyway but are too afraid/ashamed to.
Great article overall, interesting read.
I'll believe in soul mates when that friend randomly finds the one
