The reason this comes up is because I was reading Imp1 comments and replies to them and he’s mentioned multiple times before that he believes that the actual answer to a lot of this is making artificial wombs so that you can cut out women from making kids and relationships with women have to be about something else. That would mean that since women can't use their wombs as a bargaining tool, their intellect and personalities have to be what keeps a man interested, at least imo, and I can see why it would appeal to him, but are they even reasonable?
I haven't done the research myself and thought it would be more fun to have a discussion over it, but still, I’m just curious as to how the tech works if at all. I've seen things where the tech is being “suppressed” (hidden from the public like a lot of current tech we use today was during the Cold War, ala the internet), but is that true, or not? It's just genuinely an interesting topic to me.
Porn was always exploiting men. That's why your arbitrary line between OF and the rest of porn makes little sense.
It's not that arbitrary of a line.
The line is actually very simple, but I will accept there is crossover.
Just for ease of explaining, let's imagine two women. One is called Katie and one is called Katherine.
Katie is a "porn star". She shows up for filming, makes the video and then goes home with her money. She never interacts with fans, at least not in a way other than generic celebrity interactions.
Katherine is an OnlyFans "creator". She sits in her bedroom taking pictures of herself while leading on 10+ men into thinking she actually cares about them and they have a chance to meet her.
Do you see how it works now? Nobody has an illusion they will meet Katie, but Katherine's whole racket is built off that illusion.
Big name porn stars interact with their fans. Their are whole porn conventions and shit. They've had them for years.
By your logic, because I can meet Ariana Grande backstage at a concert, I could fuck her. (Not like I'd want to. Creep looks like a child.)
You're not getting the difference - are you really telling me porn stars pretend to be in a relationship with individual fans?
No, but that line is arbitrary. Also, I take it you also don't have a problem with findom, either.
