"We're all f*ggots to the fascists" actually you can dye your hair back to brown and take the pronouns of your Twitter bio and you'll be fine 🙂

A majority of OnlyFans subscribers are not lonely, single men, but married ones, new studies suggest.

Another reason why men subscribe to OnlyFans is that they want to support their favorite creators.

Men from all walks of life subscribe to OnlyFans, and there are many different reasons why they do it.

Generally speaking, men tend to consume more pornography compared to women, and there is emerging evidence that men are at the center of a larger, loneliness epidemic. Data from the Pew Research Center indicate that 63 percent of men under 30 are single by choice, compared to 51 percent in 2019.

Some experts blame social media and porn for this decline in connection. Given that OnlyFans represents the intersection of the two, it would make sense that lonely, single men would be driving the company's success. It is a convenient theory. The only problem? The opposite seems to be true. A majority of OnlyFans subscribers are married men, so the platform may be less an antidote to loneliness and more of a fidelity cheat code.

This twist comes from one of the first studies to break down OnlyFans’ user demographics. After surveying 335 men and 383 women ages 18 to 71, researchers found that subscribers, on average, were 63 percent male, 68 percent white, and 89 percent married—with 59 percent of users identifying as heterosexual and 37 percent identifying as bi or pansexual. (That latter finding may sound unusually high, but a 2022 Gallup poll revealed that bisexual individuals make up a majority of the LGBTQ+ demographic: 57 percent. According to another Gallup survey from 2021, 17 percent of bisexual people marry someone of the opposite sex, compared to 1 percent who enter same-sex marriages. Whether or not couples are open about it, it is less shocking that a large cross-section of hetero-passing couples identify as bi or pansexual.)

It's entirely possible that some men flock to OnlyFans for the same reason some men or women consume more pornography than others: They have higher sex drives and don’t always have partners who match their libidos. Another possibility is that both partners in a relationship have high sex drives and use OnlyFans content to boost intimacy and have fun.

Despite stereotypes about men who watch porn, pornography addiction is not considered to be a valid psychiatric diagnosis. That said, more problematic porn use has been linked with more religious upbringings and the sexual baggage it may bring. Like porn in general, there is little reason to believe that OnlyFans content is psychologically and universally harmful to those who use it. It’s more likely that the shame some men have about sex, combined with poor communication in their romantic relationships, can lead to secrecy, disillusionment, and distrust—particularly when someone subscribes to OnlyFans without discussing it with their partner.

rape is crime against humanity, and every rapist should be killed. I don't mind if it's your boyfriend or friend or co-worker or father or brother, if they are rapists, they deserve death.

Thinking about when I was a freshwoman in college and a formerly incarcerated woman came to talk to my feminist theory class about how she believed in abolition but only for women's prisons. She spoke about how rare violent female criminals are, especially when you exclude abuse victims/self defense etc. She spoke about how many of her peers were broken and abused and needed help. She spoke about how isolating mixed-sex spaces for formerly incarcerated people were because so many of the men were openly threatening or misogynistic. She spoke about how complete abolition is unrealistic and impractical because of the epidemic of male violence. She had so many amazing hot takes that she would say without shame or hesitation. It really opened my eyes because I didn't think I was even allowed to think things like that. Anyway I hope she is doing well and I fully agree.
