Social media and punting

[Mr Sinister]

Sinister here -

There's been various discussions here on OF and how girls would rather move over to there instead of being an escort with it being one of the reasons why we're seeing less and less young girls being escorts.

Now the latest trend in the US at least seems to be 304 Tiktok.
What's a 304? Slang for ho, slut, slag, someone that sleeps around and is for the streets.

What's 304 Tiktok? Well in the states it seems girls who are or have become prossies are airing out their dirty laundry and tips for civvies to join in to make a quick buck this seems to have stemmed from stripers doing it first. There has been some backlash from pros saying the knowledge shouldn't be openly put out there so loosely or they should not be enticing girls by glamourizing an easy rich lifestyle that's a fantasy, also there are those who sees the opportunity to monetize the trend

With the stigma around 'sex work' slowly starting to loosen up will social media have a bigger impact on the world of punting? Like it exists in a way since there are girls who sell themselves over the gram if you know where to look.
There's been the passport bros movement and guys making vlogs on their experiences punting abroad.

Will this catch on over here? What do you think about the possibility in the future punters and prossies globally being open about this world on social media?

As far as I am concerned the business of buying and selling sex will always have stigma attached to it.

Social media trends may come and go but it’s a no from me that anything in the way of cash in exchange for sex will ever be thought of in the same way as voyeuristic stuff.

I think there will be no change.  And I think your premise and comments on things changing are not data based and most likely not true.

Firstly the US market, in particular, has little bearing here.  There, it is a crime.  And on top, a lot of the cops are bastards and will actively try to trap punters and escorts.  Here, little advice is needed to get started (although I assume advice helps, as in all walks of life).

Next, the idea that the stigma is slowly loosening is wishful thinking.  It is not crazy strong, but seems steady.  Pretty Women came out in 1990 and folks said this would remove the stigma.  Secret Diary of a Call Girl came out in 2007 and they said the same.  Truth is, more likely, after 34 and 17 years later, there is no lasting effect.

Lastly you may assume that all sex work is the same and all are suited to all sorts. (You do mention OF and stripping - clearly I don't know what you really think/assume) Anyway, OF and stripping are very different to escorting (and to each other).  Some are suited to one, but not others.  I judge that many escorts like to have sex (or don't mind it) and like the money/hr and could not stand being a stripper (dancing in public? all these men at once?) or doing OF( computer crap? new content daily? hard to do it month on month?).  So I think the next 5 years will be pretty much like the last 5.  Unless some crazy fringe politician brings in the nordic model.

You can't compare the UK with the USA, prostitution is illegal in the USA, with the exception of Northern Ireland in the UK it isn't.

Not forgetting social media isn't allowed on here, it isn't paid for sex.

I dunno where the OP is getting his ideas from, but if you google "304 tiktok" all you get are hits on discussions about rehydration salts and how to use them

Don't know where you're searching mate, but it's a TikTok thing which is social media/webcam.

... and I've just learned that this number is used, 'cos it spells "hOE" on an upside-down calculator

Not to be confused with a 403, which is an unattainable woman that is out of your league

Tiktok is just a lure to get followers onto OF

It has been pointed out that it has nothing to do with punting and social media is not allowed on here, this section is for discussions of paid sex and massages.
