CamGirls (or officially webcam models) are people who use webcams to spread themselves on the Internet, and they often participate in various sexual acts in exchange for money or tips from the users who see them. The term encompasses all women who use digital media to promote such services, but the most famous are those women who have accounts on popular streaming media sites. Since broadband began to pick up speed, these sites have achieved greater success and growth, and thus have achieved higher video quality and easier interaction.
Compared to other sex-related occupations, CamGirls self-employment seems safer and more convenient for those who want to participate. All they need is a room, a webcam and an almost outstanding personality, they can spend a few hours in front of the computer receiving indications from strangers and fulfilling their wishes. According to various reports from Vice, the girls (and men) who work on this basically do it 24 hours a day, because they not only broadcast, but also manage their own websites and social media accounts, take their own photos, and they believe what they create. provide "Menu", some even create accounts on sites like OnlyFans to sell exclusive videos and photos.
If CamGirl develops a great promotional strategy, you can even earn a lot of money without having to confront clients (of course, some offer face-to-face meetings, but this is a separate topic). They decide their working hours, their rules and can block users or say "no" to any request (even on sites like ChatSexoCam.com, there are rules where users can be blocked if they don't follow them). Some testimonies collected by Vice from these types of workers state that they feel more comfortable than working in the porn industry because they can control everything they do.
In fact, the magazine pointed out in a report that not all CamGirls broadcast at home and have spaces designed specifically for these activities. Provide women with high-speed internet and spaces decorated in different ways. This further protects her security, because if someone tries to track her location, she will not find her home and her privacy will be protected. But it should be noted that, as in all those industries, there are also people who are persecuted by criminals who traffic in women against their will. According to a report from the FightTheNewDrug website, a model named Mila claims that most of CamGirls studios in Russia and Romania are controlled by the mafia, and it is also used as a money laundering center to hide money from prostitution. Some of the members.
This proves the strong demand that exists in the webcam business, but it also proves the audience that wants to see children or people on the Internet suffering against their will. This is a more powerful system problem and the solution is not simple. Fortunately, different governments are beginning to take these types of cases more seriously to arrest those responsible for human trafficking. However, this begs the question, even if someone might suffer from being there, will they continue to use these sites?
