The Price Of Pregnancy Porn
What happens when an OnlyFans creator becomes pregnant, and discovers that her baby bump is good for business? In this candid and wildly entertaining episode with Emily Mai, we explore pregnancy fetishes, breeding fantasies, lactation requests and the unexpectedly nurturing “mummy energy” behind some subscribers’ desires. Our guest reveals how pregnancy transformed her income, introduced her to an entirely new world of kinks and helped her embrace the stretch marks, sagging boobs and body changes she once felt insecure about. But greater confidence and financial freedom came at a price. We unpack the judgement she faced from other mothers, the double standard that allows women to share sexualised images for free but condemns them for putting a price on their labour, and the persistent belief that becoming a mother means surrendering your sexuality. From getting kicked out of a mothers’ group to earning in a day what a corporate job might pay in a week, this episode asks some confronting questions: Why does money make female sexuality “disgusting”? Can society accept that mothers are still sexual beings? And why wouldn’t a woman profit from something others are already consuming? Unfiltered, funny and thought-provoking, this is a conversation about sex work, motherhood, body acceptance, money and refusing to let anyone else determine your value.

FinDom, Pussy Power & Going Viral - Ally McGrath
Ally is the social media strategist behind some of OnlyFans biggest names - Annie Knight, Alex Lynx, and more - and she got there by working inside the industry herself first, from online companionship to financial domination. This week she breaks down how "spicy" creators actually go viral (on purpose, not by accident), why shadow bans are the online industry's biggest threat, and the "seduction archetypes" she uses to build a creator's entire brand around who they really are. We get into content strategy, the shift toward "female gaze" content, the mistakes new sex workers make online, and how Ally used the money she made from Financial Domination to build her dream business - Electric Feel !

21. 'Stripping Prepared Me For Arrogant Men In Politics' - Georgie Percell

We also dive into the constant online harassment she receives for challenging misogynistic industries, the scrutiny women in politics face, especially those who bravely speak out about harassment -and the backlash she experienced for returning to work after her recent pregnancy.

19. Tilly Lawless “It wasn’t worth it”
Tilly Lawless was the first young, Australian woman I followed who spoke publicly and unapologetically about her work in the sex industry. She is highly educated, articulate, and strikingly nonchalant when describing her experiences in brothels or as a private escort. Tilly has transformed her lived experience into two novels and is currently writing a third, all while continuing to work as an escort in Sydney. Although she does not identify as a sex worker advocate, her TED Talks and books have had a profound impact on sex workers and have played a significant role in educating civilians about the realities of the sex industry. Today, we talk about the impacts of speaking publicly, the scrutiny she received, and how it ultimately led her to step back from the online world. We explore why she never wanted to be a role model, and how she was simply doing what felt right to her, and the high standards forced upon you when you gain an online following
