> This article's main point left me deeply confused. Isn't mostly men behind OnlyFans? And also aren't male performers in general paid significantly less than female performers in porn? I feel like things like that were deliberately left out of the article because they didn't contribute to the narrative it tried to build.

Have to use a throwaway lest my skeletons get attached to me.

> Isn't mostly men behind OnlyFans?

Yeah. The irony to me of this wave of the 'sexual revolution' is that the message is that it's OK for Women/Men to sell their bodies as such on the internet... And the end result is a bunch of white men who were in many cases already rich are getting richer via their 'cut'. OnlyFans/Manyvids/Etc are just like the Apple or Android store. They provide some level of legally required and/or percieved need (Verification, APIs and docs, etc) and then get a cut for doing not much else.
