A new study published in the journal Sexuality & Culture has found that many adolescents in Spain, including those as young as 12, are not only aware of OnlyFans but also see it as a viable and even empowering way to make money. In group discussions with over 160 teenagers, researchers discovered that platforms promoting erotic content are influencing how young people—especially girls—view economic opportunity, self-worth, and sexuality. Teens frequently framed content creation as a personal choice or expression of agency, while minimizing the risks.

    Man, Spain really needs to get closer to its Muslim roots, lol. Wtf. Let’s just hope it’s not as bad as this article implies.

      Mohammed married a 9 year-old child; whatever other benefits you envision, I don’t think that religion is a model of the solution here.

        Regardless of the veracity of that statement, follow/worship the message, not the person. You read the Qur’an and tell me what you disagree with!

            Eh, not really. Trichinosis is very much real and, before people could reliably check the temperature of the meat being cooked, “a pork chop could kill you!” (Chris Rock in some early 00s special, lol). Today, it’s mostly a sign of belonging, and ‘proves’ you can restrain yourself at least a little from all and every pleasure. And I stand by an alcohol prohibition, or at least being wary of its consumption. I’ve never met a single person who wouldn’t be an overall better human being if they simply stopped drinking/relying on it to handle situations, emotions and thoughts instead of approaching them soberly. You can tell me you enjoy booze (ofc!), but you can’t tell me in earnest it’s eudaimonically ‘good for you’.

              and now that we know what is bad about pork they’ve revised their beliefs right?

              that’s the problem with religion: some rules were made thousands of years ago for a society that looked completely different and whose only way of dealing with the world was to make up myths to explain things they don’t know

              this is not applicable to modern society… you say spain should embrace their muslim roots, but why? morality isn’t inherent to religion, and id argue a lot of religion is inherently immoral - or at least, a lot of organised religion and religious people are very immoral compared to many atheists who approach these things from a “but why” perspective rather than a “because god said” perspective

              solve problems; don’t apply blanket rules that often don’t make sense
