People aren't shitting all over you because they disagree with your advice. We all have different opinions on how to be better camgirls. They're shitting all over you because these sort of websites do a great deal of harm over those naive enough to take it their advice.
Your advice could really hurt some new camgirl out there who doesn't know better. Not just hurting her income, mind you (which it will) but creating real emotional damage.
I'm speaking from 5+ years experience as a cammodel, and nearly a decade in the adult industry. So sit the fuck down and listen.
The main thing cam girls regret from their new days is undercharging. This is an emotionally taxing job, and thank GOD there are communities like this around now, because when I first tried it there sure as hell weren't. Being new and not knowing anybody, it's so easy to undervalue yourself and feel extremely used. I can't express how disgusting it feels to be performing sex acts for pennies, but it's every bit as shitty as any reasonably intelligent person can imagine. I still feel sick when I think about some of the things I did for so little when I first started and didn't know any better.
These girls find this forum, relieved to learn that they can charge what they feel is appropriate. We show them better options in Models Only. Many don't make it that far, and instead regret their explicit sex acts being on the internet forever after making a whopping 10 bucks in the game, which will haunt them for the rest of their life.
There are real risks to being a cam model. There's no risk to you, anonymous affiliate marketer. Even with careful planning and all the resources in the world, there's every possibility that someone entering our industry will be pushed past their comfort zones and feel taken advantage of, fail to make any money whatsoever, and regret it for the rest of their life. We do our best to minimize that. Many of us work tirelessly trying to help new models avoid this. We spend hours upon hours, years after years, helping guide women who took advice like yours, trying to undo the damage. Sometimes they listen, sometimes they don't. But nearly every single one of us started out naive, alone, and with no idea what to do.
You're taking advantage of naive women who don't know any better, for your own personal gain. And maybe you're not meaning to. Maybe you actually thought your advice was great and would help people. But we are all telling you it is extremely damaging.
Now that you know this, if you have any decency as a human being, here's what you will do:
Hire actual cam models to write your articles. All of them, because you don't know what you're talking about. Pay them. Make a pledge with yourself to be a benefit to your readers instead of a hindrance. Be honest about what you do/do not know. And stop treating the professionals in this industry as disposable.
it is coming from next to it instead of dropping names like Kaci Kash.
