Menstruation gone?

Hey all

The companies that control the credit card interface don't allow it unfortunately.

Re: Menstruation gone?

Boundaries for content is a complicated mess.

I heard an interesting podcast (by Kate Linebaugh, and actually from Wall street Journal). They followed the money in the adult industry and ended up that everything depended on the big credit card companies (Visa and Mastercard).

These companies were not totally comfortable with that position and made some very foggy guidelines as to what content they accepted or not. As a result those in between, like the credit card interface companies used by IFM, made their own (stricter and more detailed) rules to be sure they did not overstep the big companies. Then the content creators have to guess where the line actually goes. So today the adult industry are operating with loads of different rule sets which are guesses as to where those you depend on sets the boundaries.

Exactly what we've experienced.

I think there is a cruel irony in the fact that free porn sites can show what they like, while companies like Feck (creating fairly-paid, contributor-controlled, ethical erotica) are prevented from letting their contributors express themselves as they wish.

First pee, then menstruation. My guess is squirting will be next.

Sorry to be a cynic.

Here's a link to Kate Linebaugh's article about Onlyfans, mentioned by Norway_man in his excellent post.

Best quote from it was "Onlyfans banning sex workers is like Burger King banning burgers."

In fact the Mindgeek sites (Pornhub, Youporn etc) which account for the vast majority of "free" porn don't have any of this kind of content.

It's interesting how OF have now set their site up so you can't find porn.  Even if you know somebody's nickname, you can't find them.  The only access is via a direct link, as far as I can see.  This way they can be a 'family friendly' platform while also the world's biggest pay porn site.

That's a very interesting observation. I had noticed it from experience a few weeks ago as I was trying to see if a model from the US site FTV Girls ( a small independent run by Rob Simyar) had an OF account. I was stumped that it wasn't searchable.

What most models do nowadays is use Tiktok and Instagram as ways to get attention then an Allmylinks connection. Whoever came up with Allmylinks must be making a sweet amount of money.

Manyvids is an example of a much more searchable database. But you also have to love the brand recognition OF has, when it is even name-dropped in songs by acts like Kim Petras in Slut Pop:

Slut Pop

This is slut pop, whip your dick out
Turn your bitch out, out, out, out-out-out-out
This is slut pop, get your tits out
Do it right now, now, now, now-now-now-now
This is slut pop, whip your dick out
Turn your bitch out, out, out, out-out-out-out
This is slut pop, get your tits out
Do it right now, now, now, now-now-now

Steal your man kind of shit, fuck your dad kind of shit
Take your bitch kind of shit, slap my ass kind of shit
Suck your dick kind of shit, fuck your bitch kind of shit
OnlyFans kind of shit, don't need hands kind of shit

Touch it right here, right now
Touch it right now (touch it right now)
(Taste) taste it right here, right now
Taste it right now (taste it right now)

Re: Menstruation gone?

We still have pee content.

Yes, you do, but the facts remain that one of your payment processors rejected it, and both have rejected menstruation content. I am simply noting a trend.
