New financial disclosures show OnlyFans' late owner received over $700 million in dividends in the months before he died. The company posted $715M in pre-tax profit on $1.6B in revenue. Run by a staff of 47 people.
I've lost count of how many "page managers" I've met who talk about running a roster of OnlyFans models like it's a smart little side hustle they thought of all by themselves... a clever, unique business idea.
But strip away the smirk and it's just old math with a new platform: s*x workers carrying all the exposure, all the risk... and someone else carries the spreadsheet and the fattened wallet.
And here's what I need women to hear: this isn't unique to OnlyFans. This is just the version with the receipts.
The same math often runs quietly through regular businesses too. There are many industries built on women’s labor, with someone else sitting at the top collecting the money.
This is why women have to be fiercely committed to protecting ourselves in business... even when it costs us being liked. Even when we get labelled bitchy, shrewd or otherwise unpleasant..
We're not being bitchy. We're just intelligent enough to know exactly who our labor is building wealth for, and refusing to be the labor in someone else's profit margin.
