If you watch porn (most of you do, don’t lie), or peruse cam sites, you are bound to have a favourite (or a couple favourite) nsfw content creators. If you like a sex workers’ content (or are jerking off to it), then you should be supporting them in one way or another. Sex workers, even those of us who just work online, are oppressed in many ways, so the least you could do with your horniness towards us is help us monetarily, or digitally!
Here are some ways you can support your favourite porn stars or cam girls..
Ways to Support Porn Performers Monetarily
Don’t watch stolen porn
If you enjoy a performer, watch their porn from the source, and not off of tube sites! Most of free porn is stolen, so be weary with your watching habits. Watching stolen porn directly relates to taking profits from your favourite performers. If you’re watching a video on PornHub, make sure it’s from a verified creator or channel (look for the blue check, or blue screen icons). When it doubt, pay for your porn directly from the performer you love.
Buy their content
Seems pretty self explanatory, but buying your favourite performers content, and subscribing to their sites (personal, OnlyFans, AVN Stars, etc) is the first way you should be supporting your performers. I find it really hard to even call “fans” of mine supporters if they don’t put their wallet for their cock is. If you’re not actively supporting me and my content, you’re not really that much of a super fan.
Tip them
Does a performer go above and beyond for you? Did they make a video that you just can’t stop masturbating to? Tip them, with no expectation of receiving something in return. We are often tipped with the expectation of our supporter wanting something in return for it. We will always love getting money in exchange for our work, but you aren’t “spoiling” us if you are just purchasing a service or product. You can also purchase something off our wishlists.
Ask them their preferred method of receiving money
Every sex worker has their favourite ways they like to be paid. If you’re wanting to purchase our content, ask and we’ll give you all the details of our preferred payment methods. It always feels nice when a supporter is conscious of our needs when purchasing content.
Ways to Support Porn Performers Digitally
Get to know their websites
Online nsfw content creators offer a lot of services, on a LOT of different porn websites. It might seem excessive, the amount of websites we host our content on, but it’s crucial to our businesses to have multiple streams of income. Take the time to get to know what platforms your fave star is on, and what they use each for. Do some research to find our their preferred platforms for accessing / paying for their content, and what platforms over them the highest payouts. Plus, knowing the layout of their websites means not needing to bother busy models with questions on how to operate the platform.
Read their promotions
Most of us have deals and promotions for you to take advantage of, and typically have graphics on our socials with our current offerings! Read our flyers before purchasing content – often times the promotions are active to push our fans to utilize a service that benefits us. An example being the tip option on ManyVids – models get paid 80% of tips, versus 60% on videos. So if there’s a video you’d like to purchase, paying for it through the Make it Rain button gives us more of the money you’re paying for it.
Vote for them
Our industry has a lot of Awards – AVN Awards, XBIZ Awards, XBIZ Cam Awards, The PornHub Awards, the MV Awards, and more! Recognition industry-wide is important to many performers, so when we get nominated we will be asking you to vote for us! Most awards are based on how many votes we get from our fans. It doesn’t take that much time to vote daily for your favourite star.
Engage with their content
If you follow us on Twitter – retweet, like and reply to our stuff (get an account for nsfw stuff if you’d like anonomity).
If you’re on PornHub, thumbs up and comment on our videos!
If you’re on ManyVids, heart, comment & review our videos, and share our posts on MV Social.
Do the most on whatever site your performer uses!
Respect our boundaries
Respecting our boundaries might sound obvious, but we get far too many people wanting to cross our lines. Do not ask NSFW stars to meet up/go on dates, do not ask too much about our families, living situation, and relationships, and do not take up too much of our time without payment. Respect that while we might be friend’s, this is still our job – you asking for too much could ruin our connection with each other.
Vote
Sex workers need our clients & supporters to be ally’s for us. Do research on your local laws surrounding sex workers, and who supports sex workers in your upcoming elections. Your vote can make a difference in helping your favourite sex worker survive, and aiding in improving their quality of life.
