Are You as Hard as Nails?
If you decide to pursue a career in online modeling, do you need to have a robust and unbreakable character? Or, can you survive if you are as sweet as pie?
It can seem an impossible task when you first enter the world of online models. You’ll see many indomitable and seemingly positive characters. Some of these characters will try to convince you that having a disposition like theirs is necessary for success. Is that really the case?
Like other careers and jobs, online modeling comprises individuals with varying skill sets and characters. Some people are born leaders, and others prefer to be led. It is how we interact and make a cohesive society. In the cam world, things are much the same, in that some provide the services while others consume.
The consumers themselves are a plethora of individuals, every person different from the next, all with diverse tastes and requirements. Therefore, it should be no surprise that those offering the services are also highly diverse.
How thick does your skin need to be when working as an online cam model?
Whatever you may think or have been told, you don’t need to be as tough as nails to be a successful cam model. Professionalism is way more important and the key to ensuring each day is as good or better than the last!
Being positive is essential, and a great way of making sure your career moves forward.
However, do not be under any illusions about some of the things you may have to deal with on a daily basis. Some people go out of their way to be rude or make disparaging comments. Thankfully they are in the minority; you must not let these people get to you.
Also, remember that everyone has bad days occasionally, and it’s too easy for them to say or type something they will regret later inadvertently. If you react badly to someone’s outburst, it will be remembered (and not in a good way).
To stay on top, you need to always be polite, even when you feel like offloading every expletive you know. Remaining courteous is also key to making you feel good. Oftentimes, these rude individuals will return with a huge apology and could even become one of your best clients!
How far is too far?
As a cam model, it’s vital to understand how the site you are streaming on works. It’s easy to skip the ‘Read Me’ pages and jump straight into earning mode. Then, when you are confronted with a scenario such as a rude customer, you don’t know what to do. Panic sets in, and you stop broadcasting because you don’t know how to handle the situation.
You can mute rude people on some sites, which can be very useful if you are in a group show. They may not even be aware they have been muted. Ensuring that you do not respond negatively is critical as the last thing you want to do is offend all the other people in the group. And, you certainly don’t want to start a verbal war within the group.
If a customer becomes very rude and abusive, you should be able to block them. However, once again, it’s crucial that you don’t react too negatively or too quickly. If you think they are a real problem, you should contact the site directly and explain the situation. Allow them to take any action that may be required.
Always being on top
Knowledge means power (in a good way), and the more you understand, the easier things are all around. Spending time reading all the information available will prove beneficial in both the short and long term. You will be much more relaxed, less stressed, and able to deal with even the most demanding situations.
Being in charge will give you the edge and allow you to concentrate your time and efforts on those who deserve it!
It does help if you are prepared to see at least some good in everyone. Even the rudest people must have some good days and always remember. They are spending their money on you! There is nothing wrong in taking that money for what is, in fact, a job well done.
Keeping up appearances
Some models can wind down at the end of every day by watching some TV or perhaps reading a book. Others may find it harder, especially if you have encountered particularly challenging clients. A wind-down routine can help you separate your life offline from the virtual one in which you work.
If you’d like some more information on how to strike a balance between work, rest, and play, please take a few minutes to read my article, which further explores the subject.
Needing external help
Very occasionally, models find themselves in a position where they cannot deal with the emotions and consequences of a rude or abusive client. As a studio owner, you can use pointers to recognize when they may need help or advice. It is harder to pinpoint the time when you may require external assistance as an individual.
Some models can vent to their friends or other models; others are alone with no confidants.
There are organizations such as Pineapple Support that provide 24/7 online emotional support. They also offer free and subsidized professional therapy and advice to all performers and producers who have been active in the adult online industry within the last six months.
Do not suffer in silence! Reach out and accept as much help and advice from like-minded people and organizations as possible.
Be Positive and Be Strong! You Know You are Worth It!

Whoreoween: Honoring Icons in Sex Worker Costumes
Whoreoween is an innovative twist on Halloween, offering sex workers a chance to step beyond the usual sexy nurse outfits and honor legends from their industry. This event serves as an opportunity to pay tribute to current and historical figures, bringing a sense of uniqueness and recognition to a community often overshadowed by stereotypes.
Dita von Teese, a modern burlesque icon, serves as a perfect inspiration. Known for her performances, Playboy appearances, and burlesque acts, she embodies the essence of a seductress. Her costume would include a classic 40s pageboy hairstyle, a sequined corset, opera gloves, statement earrings, and bright red lipstick, preferably in MAC’s Viva Glam I or Ruby Woo shades.
Marsha P. Johnson, a pivotal figure in the Stonewall uprising, is another inspirational figure. As a gay liberation activist, trans woman, and drag queen, she advocated for gay, trans, and sex worker rights. Her costume would feature a flower crown, 70s-style glamour with a slinky dress, faux or vintage fur, sequins, and bold jewelry, capturing her spirit and role in the gay rights movement.
Dee Dee Ramone, known for his role in the Ramones, also worked as a sex worker. His costume would reflect his classic punk style with tight vintage jeans, a DIY sleeveless t-shirt, and a leather jacket.
Ms. Mona Stangley, from “The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,” portrayed by Dolly Parton, offers a Western-inspired look. The costume could include big hair, flouncy prairie dresses, or a satin corset with a sheer robe, embodying the spirit of the 80s Texas madam.
Zorita, a groundbreaking burlesque dancer, is known for her bold performances with snakes and a famous ‘half and half’ act. Her costume would include fishnet stockings, ruffled dresses, spangly heels, and possibly a tiara or two platinum streaks in the hair.
Tilly Devine and Kate Leigh, 1920s Sydney gangsters, provide a unique option for a doubles costume. Their outfits would reflect the era’s fashion, featuring heavy coats, top hats, or beaded headscarves, emphasizing their toughness.
Josephine Baker, an American-born dancer, actress, and WWII spy, offers a glamorous choice. Her costume could include glittery earrings, a beaded satin cocktail dress, and a classic 20s hairstyle. The famous Banana Dance outfit, featuring a pearl necklace and an artificial banana skirt, also represents her iconic status.
Lycoris the Mime, from ancient Rome, presents a historical option. Her costume would include traditional white robes, perhaps with floral headpieces, reflecting the mime artists’ role during the Floralia festival.
Lastly, Bettie Page, a 1950s pinup and fetish model, offers a vintage choice. Her costume might include a leopard-print leotard, sheer dress with faux fur, or classic black satin lingerie paired with shiny black heels.
Whoreoween provides a platform for sex workers to celebrate their history and culture, offering a way to honor icons who have made significant contributions to the industry and society.

2023 Celebrity Halloween Hits and Misses
As Halloween rolls around, the unveiling of celebrity costumes becomes a highly anticipated event, reflecting both triumphs and transgressions in fashion and fandom. 2023 proved no different, with an array of high-profile personas embracing the season’s spirit through an eclectic mix of costumes.
The celebrations of 2023 remind us that Halloween is not only a display of creativity but also a reflection of our times. It’s a balancing act between homage and originality, between respect for tradition and the thrill of innovation. This year’s array of costumes, from the star-studded to the minimalistic, confirms that celebrity Halloween looks will continue to be a pop culture spectacle, for better or for worse.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, whose stature often overshadows any character he attempts to portray, tried to channel soccer legend David Beckham with a ‘90s-era jersey and a blonde wig. Despite the effort, the familiar face of this wrestler-turned-actor was still the main highlight.
Keke Palmer brought a touch of narrative to her costume. The actress and singer, accompanied by her son Leo as a mini mad scientist, transformed into Frankenstein’s creature. This whimsical yet heartwarming costume was well-received, as Palmer humorously credited her son for giving her “LIFE,” a play on her role as a mother and Frankenstein’s creation.
Adele, the vocal powerhouse, took to the stage in Las Vegas, embodying the dark elegance of Morticia Addams. Her rendition was both fitting for the Queen of the Night and adored by her audience, capturing the gothic essence of the beloved character with a long black wig and striking nails.
However, not all costumes were met with applause. Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly’s “Kill Bill” ensemble sparked controversy. While visually striking, Fox’s decision to flout SAG-AFTRA guidelines amid an actor’s strike resulted in significant backlash, with some labeling her actions as insensitive.
Meanwhile, Austin Butler and Kaia Gerber paid homage to pop art and ‘60s fashion icons Andy Warhol and Edie Sedgwick. The couple’s costume, timely for Butler’s rising fame, was both a cultural throwback and a fitting tribute to Warhol’s enduring legacy.
Florence Pugh took a different route, embracing a more casual, last-minute look as a nod to Guy Fieri. The simplicity and relatability of her costume resonated with fans who appreciate a more spontaneous approach to Halloween.

Revolutionizing Desire: The Rise of FPOV Porn
In the realm of virtual reality (VR) adult entertainment, the concept of female point-of-view (FPOV) porn has sparked interest but remains underexplored. Content creators like Lee and Erika Lust have noted that many women seek a deeper connection than traditional porn provides, craving emotional resonance alongside physical stimulation. They suggest that the industry has not fully grasped or catered to female sexual preferences, which extend beyond mere visual cues to include psychological engagement.
One of the key players, Sex Like Real (SLR), has experimented with FPOV content, responding to specific requests from their audience. However, despite attempts to innovate with scenarios like the “boyfriend experience” and narratives of female empowerment, these ventures have not always been profitable. SLR’s findings indicate that the financial returns on FPOV content don’t yet match those of conventional porn, suggesting either a mismatch in content or a niche audience.
Only a small fraction of SLR’s user base identifies as female, which might indicate limited demand. Nonetheless, industry executives like David Chapman of SLR speculate that the true number of female users is underreported due to shared devices among couples. Chapman and his colleagues believe in the importance of catering to female viewers, not only for diversity but also because VR porn can provide a safe space for exploring sexuality.
The technological barrier presented by the high cost of VR equipment also contributes to the limited reach of FPOV porn. Not everyone can afford the gear necessary to enjoy such immersive experiences, as pointed out by Lust, who acknowledges the success of her VR film “360 Degrees of Lust,” though less than her other works.
The content itself has been critiqued for not fully capturing women’s diverse tastes. A superfan of FPOV, known as Super Smash Cache, has highlighted the industry’s narrow depiction of male attractiveness and the scarcity of content that appeals to her preferences. This suggests that a wider range of male portrayals might better satisfy the diverse desires of female viewers.
Conclusively, there is a consensus that while there is an audience for female-centric VR porn, the industry needs time to adapt. More women in development and production roles could catalyze this change, fostering content that resonates more deeply with female viewers. As the technology becomes more accessible and content more diverse, FPOV porn has the potential to redefine what is desirable in adult entertainment.
