Us modern people take many things for granted. One of them is photography. It was only about 200 years ago that the first photograph was taken, and the moment lost its uniqueness. All us of were born into some form of photography, thus we can't exactly picture how people would think or feel before the photography was possible. When I first realized this, it did baffle me a bit, before photography, you'd need to travel the world to see a piece of art, or a beautiful natural scenery. Now it is all at the tip of our finger. It might seem like a blessing in the first glance, but what it truly did was to strip the moment of its true value. I'll make another thread about that some other day.
Neither or brains, or our societies were could adapt to the alterations the photography would bring. Perhaps what took the biggest hit was male sexuality. To obtain a nude picture of a female in his brain, the male would either convince or force the female, or he'd need to peek. Either way, it required a decent bit of effort, just to get a glance of a nude female body. With the photography, first, the nude pictures were distributed, on magazines, or on various forms of pornography, making the sight far easier to achieve, removing the need for female interaction for the male. Then with the internet, the material became so common, and so easy to reach, it only takes a few miliseconds to obtain thousands of videos and pictures of naked bodies, and all kinds of sexual intercourse.
At first, one thinks, this will definitely lead to devaluation of the female nudity. If men have access to seeminly infinite number of female nudes, why would he even try to obtain them any other way (I am not taking physical contact with a female in consideration here, as that's an entirely different need) This line of thinking is what leads many man I've seen to say, ''I don't understand why anyone would pay for some random girls nudes, when I google big boob I get millions of results''.
The truth is, the overabundance of the female nudes on the net made ''nudes with no context'' completely meaningless, however, it also made ''nudes of a certain girl'' or ''nudes that I have spent money/effort to obtain'' far, far more valuable. Think of it like this, you can obtain the picture of Mona Lisa, at any device with a display, provided that you have an internet connection. However, that does not increase the value your device holds, since it is just ''another picture of Mona Lisa'' with no meaning or context whatsoever. Also, the fact that you can observe Mona Lisa any time you'd like, reduced nothing from the estimated financial value of the painting. If anything, it made it even more precious, now that more people have seen it. You can think of the Mona Lisa on the internet as the endless sea of pornographic material, and the real Mona Lisa as the nude obtained from a girl directly, or from Onlyfans.
Combining the natural sexual power a female holds, digital photography and a free market spells disaster for any society. This might lead us to a temporary state from hell, where majority of women don't work, instead they just sell their nudes to millions of sex starved men, wheras those man work their fingers to the bones and spend their hard obtained money on obtanining female nudes, just to stimulate the excitement of sexual success. Only top 5% of men would have direct access to the female body, prostution would be outlawed, and physical contact would be a myth for the lower class males. Seems unrealistic, perhaps it is an exaggeration, but what is undeniable is, we certainly are headed for somewhere similar. Also I'd like to add, the true effect of Onlyfans on sexual economics does require it's own thread. A lot can be said about the issue.
