What does society think about webcam modeling? Do you guys think it's a suitable "job" for a male/female?

hmmm...I don't really agree with it but that's just my opinion

I don't think people should be shamed for their sexual and/or occupational choices honestly. I mean, someone could make just as many moral objections about people who do jobs that harm the environment or other people but no one ever does. This at least doesn't harm anyone!

I feel it is a personal choice and if someone wants to do this, has fun with it and is honest....then go for it!! I have fun camming occasionally for fun and tips. Shoot, there is not much difference between camming and some of the commercials, much less sitcoms on tv nowadays.

Seems like the natural evolution of the phone sex operator, plus it's safer compared to some other jobs in sex work.

Do whatever makes you happy. Just be aware of all of the consequences that can come with trying to get out of camming for money. There's no guarantee these people aren't recording you to put you on tube sites. That's a decision you would have to make on your own---whether or not you could deal with family or friends finding out.

I don't really have a problem with anyone doing it but I wouldn't personally. As Stormy points out there are plenty of things to consider that could impact your life long term.

I want to know why it is such a issue that is coming up lately?

I do web cam modeling and I have never had a problem. I actually enjoy my job. I can make my own hours and I can also be at home with my kids.

I also never had a member put me on any other sites. Yes the possibility is out there but the sites that I am on protect us from that situation.

Also another thing there are a couple of sites that offer just "Friends" so you don't have to take your clothes off just to get paid. I do very well on the Friends area without having to get naked.

I think it's pretty cool that some people can make so much money off of it. From what I've seen of those cam sites, it seems like the girls have a lot of fun doing it, and are often times very creative and smart with the ways they earn their tips and how they market themselves.

Because people are broke and other people who have money don't mind paying for sex in a variety of forms?

It's a fast way to make cash and when there aren't any jobs...well it's only natural.

If you're a natural entertainer and enjoy showing yourself off, then sure, it's a suitable job for you.

If you are naturally reserved, don't like to be the centre of attention, and aren't good at performing for others, then no, it's not suitable. (I fall in this category, which is why it's out of my league. I'd be about as well qualified as an accountant who hates numbers.)

Yes that is one of the reason and some actually enjoy doing it as well.

But I wanted to know why she was asking because she is a cam model her self. I did not know that until I checked out her page. Also these posts are a fast way to get more members too, another marketing scheme for some models as well.

Especially if you are posting your link to your site in your profile. That I have not done I do have my website up but not big to where people will see it. I use other means to promote myself. Just saying.

First and foremost I am a cam model I make almost 100k a year and I have been doing it for 2 years. I have college degree in psychology and even if I worked in my field I would still cam because of the money and I simply enjoy it. I have alot of guys that just come in for advice, modeling clothes, dancing, etc. Its NOT all about sex all the time like people think. I am home with my 6 month old son and cam at night after my other kids are asleep. I am an open person and have to say if anybody in my family found out they wouldnt be surprised lol. I do not understand why this has been a topic of conversation recently webcamming is not a new thing to do its been around for years! They also have non nude categories which im also a part of during the day. So the question is webcamming a suitable job for someone? I was offended because who's right is it of anyone to tell me my job is suitable or not? I don't care what society views as suitable because society isn't handing out my paycheck every week!

It's much harder for a man to do, not impossible, he just has to be really good at it and realize that it's mostly going to be other men watching.

If you are comfortable with it being out there then it's great. Just need to remember that once its recorded it could easily be transferred to anyone.

As a "job", no probably not...but as something to do in your spare time to earn a bit of extra cash (assuming people are paying you to do it) or free stuff (people giving you stuff to "model" for them), that's cool.

I may be incorrect, but I think this is coming up because it may have been around for a while, but there are still a lot of people who don't realize that. Personally, if it works for someone choose this, as you indicate, I see nothing wrong with it.

I have nothing against it. I do think those that do it (as well as anyone who has a job that is partially based upon appearance) should keep in mind that it's an appearance-based job, but I have nothing against it. I wish I had the typical look to do it as it seems like a good stay-at-home job.

Kayla there is no typical look. A lot of people think there is. There are more men on there who like curvier women, women with more meat on them. You still have the ones that like them thin. But most like them bigger. All you have to do is be pretty. And even yet if you are working in the friends area you should not have to worry about people judging you they only see what is on the outside of your clothes not your goody parts.

However you make ends meet, really.

If I met a girl who did camming for money, I'd be ok with it. Heck, I'd probably offer to "help". As long as it's only in front of the camera, I'm ok with it. I'd worry about a partner doing it in public though, too many weirdos out there.

Good outlook JR. I tell everyone I talk too what I do. Either they like it or they don't. I have a kids to take care of and I am not going to depend on the other person for money. It is just not me I rather make my own.

Not for me, but to each their own. I don't have a problem with what other people want to do in their life; as long others aren't harmed in the process.

^ This. I'm actually just about to start cam modelling, thanks to Miss Heaven. She taught me so much and is still helping me out. Starting out (and who knows, possibly always), I will just be talking. No nudity. No sexual poses or anything even allowed. Just talking. And even if I WERE getting naked for money, who cares? That's my business, not anyone else's. If you ask me, it's better to be a cam model than a stripper and definitely a prostitute. No one would be touching me or even be able to! It's a great job when you think about it. You set your own hours and you can work anywhere in the world, so long as you have a computer, the Internet, and a webcam. It's perfect for someone like me who doesn't have a car and doesn't know how to drive in the first place. My boyfriend and I are really struggling right now so hopefully this job will turn things around for us.

And by the way, if you want to know my cam modelling name, I'm keeping it secret. I want it separated from everything else dealing with me, for my own safety. Thank you for respecting that!

@ Kayla: You'd be surprised. I know a girl who has a bunch of BBW friends (and I'm talking 500+ pounds) who are cam models. They make a LOT of money because of gainer fans out there. And even just girls like me who are a size 16-18, there's someone out there for us. I'd say that all you have to be is pretty but beauty is subjective and some girls I have seen doing fairly well are not really attractive in my eyes. Obviously, you have to be pretty to some degree but you'd really be surprised about who can succeed in the cam modelling business. Most of the time, the most important thing is not your appearance but your personality, especially if you want to get regulars.

Your welcome hun I told you anything you need just ask. I am not a rude host to where I would not help and there are some out there that don't want to see people succeed at doing web cam modeling.

You have the right idea it is your personality. That is why I have most my regulars all they have to do is see my smile and they can get off just from that. That's another story lol.
