This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

This happened to a girl I knew that tried to make some money on onlyfans during Covid lockdown. Only lasted 4 months, even though she was pretty attractive. I think guys just assume that as a girl, you can simply post nudes online and make money, while it actually does require consistent effort, marketing skills, and a bit of luck.

on onlyfans, like most platforms, the vast majority of people make little to nothing

Managed my friends only fans for a bit, we got her account to top 4.5%. She brought in ~$1.5K on a good month. One time we got up to $2K. This is with her having done porn with a few big studios and having a decent amount of followers on Twitter. There is no Discovery feature or feed on OF, you have to direct them there through a direct link. Had to keep a consistent production schedule, deal with inquires from patrons. Successfully running and only fans is like running a business, people don't simply give you money.

Making money requires work

That comes as a surprise for many people

I imagine it’s as easy to make money off of as YouTube or Twtich, almost impossible.

[–] frezik@midwest.social 42 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

There's a bit on the Netflix Pornhub documentary from a camgirl. She notes that she does her own marketing, lighting, camera work, etc., and every once in a while, she masturbates on camera. It's a real job with real effort.

I know so many people trying to make it as streamers who cannot seem to understand that you have to do a lot of work to make anything catch on unless you are crazy lucky/extremely attractive. A regular person playing a game isn't interesting for others and it takes energy for most to cultivate a following.

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 116 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Damn I remember this post from when I was on 4chan still. OP did provide links and his story was 100% true. The girl wasn't ugly, just kinda plain but almost every pic of her somehow exuded despair, and that was honestly offputting (except for the kind of creeps who get off on that I reckon).

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Where are those pics? Where?

[–] asqapro@reddthat.com 59 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Apparently the woman from the greentext was known as “plastixfangs” online. She deleted a significant amount of her content, but random porn sites still have some of her posts. For example, https://pornpics.click/@plastixfangs (NSFW)

I can see it, she's certainly not ugly, but not attractive enough to stand out from the crowd either.

And I don't think she's particularly good at taking photos of herself, either.

Sounds like anon could had made her day by just talking to her

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 178 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

Frankly, I’m glad she was spared the trouble. I can’t imagine they’d be able to offer words of encouragement without seeming intensely parasocial. A generic “you’re hot” wouldn’t have amounted to much. It doesn’t seem like there’s a correct answer, besides finding her irl, flashing her unlocked onlyfans, and begging for her socks

Your post ended in a way I was not expecting.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 91 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

There are a lot of people whod appreciate her features so its surprising she didnt get any attention. Maybe anon made up the story and is actually into men?

[–] cyrano@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 3 weeks ago

Lies? On the internet? Impossible!

[–] arin@lemmy.world 38 points 3 weeks ago

Nope anon is the girl trying to get your attention

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 36 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Someone else in the comments said they were there and it's actually real. Likely still into men though

Anon experiences empathy for once in their miserable life.
One of the few legit greentexts. lol

[–] 1SimpleTailor@startrek.website 66 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Lil tiddy supermarket goth girl sounds cute tbh, or maybe I just have a type.

Anyway, girls like this can be a real gem to find if you're a gooner. Their small fan base means if you're not a creep there's a chance of genuine interaction. She'll probably take request and if she likes you might even send you free content.

[–] exasperation@lemm.ee 91 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

if you're a gooner

if you're not a creep

Good luck with that Venn diagram.

Some girls aren't in it for the money or fame, they just like posting nudes

[–] ChexMax@lemmy.world 38 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Right, but aren't those girls in it for the attention? The thrill? Sounds like she's not getting any attention, either.

I know that girl's pain. I, too, want to be a massive whore but nobody wants me. 😔

Don't be the whore the world wants, but the world deserves.

I know it's probably fake, but I low key think this is the experience of most women, online or not. Men like to think women can just ring a bell and get dick and companionship, judging off of, like, the cream of the crop of women and their (apparent) track record. It's not always that easy, especially if you aren't attractive. A lot of men don't fuck for personality.

~~Obligatory not all men, yes there are shallow women, and yes it is also hard for men to find partners, and yes they have their own struggles and pressures that make their struggle unique to them.~~

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 29 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I mean, they probably could, but what's available to them isn't exactly the cream of the crop either.

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 3 weeks ago

I imagine it's similar to the gay male experience - I could get a hookup any time of day easily, but the guys aren't relationship material.

Yeah my husband seems to think onlyfans is easy money, like I could just post a nude and money would come rolling in magically, talks about how much big earners are making on YouTube too, but hustling like that is so much harder than having a job, you have to be organized and ambitious and then for every one person making thousands, there are many thousands of people making pennies.

It's so much easier to just have a job.

Can a brother get a link?

[–] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 42 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Know your worth and know where you are valued.

This can sound really deep, but it works for shallow too. I'm sorry girl, but the whore market is saturated and very competitive.

Yeah, she really should wait until OP's mom retires.

The funny thing is that if this greentext linked this girl OnlyFans, she would gain tons of views just out of pity.

Some of these would even stick around afterwards.

I see this quite often on the other side of reddit. It's quite sad. On that side of reddit, where no one shows their face, except occasionals who either leave generic "sexy 😍" comments or entitled requests, no one acknowledges you for trying.

Every time I see some woman praising sex work and/or calling it feminist, I am reminded of the 10 other girls who who_red away their dignity for absolutely nothing

[–] Genius@lemmy.zip 59 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Sex work isn't often feminist, but sex workers still deserve respect. They deserve to be included in the feminist movement.

[–] frezik@midwest.social 19 points 3 weeks ago

And we can start by no longer implying that the work is somehow undignified. This applies to OP as well as GP.

Sex workers shouldn't have to wait for the revolution to find respect. Maybe there wouldn't be sex workers after the revolution, but I certainly hope it results in a society where people are freer to express their sexuality in safe and consensual ways.
