    Default Crossing to the dark side....jk, converting from club dancer to camgirl.

    I've been dancing for about 4 years now, but since I'm pregnant, I'm currently working as a shooter girl and plan to start camming very soon.

    As of right now, I'm just doing research and trying to gather as much info as possible...I'm starting to get a good idea of camming vs. dancing, I THINK.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems camming is more mentally exhausting, compared to the physical strain of dancing...although dancing can put a mental toll on me sometimes, too. How do you ladies break the barrier of dread and lack of motivation? For girls who have danced as well as cammed, how do your experiences compare?

    I know better than to ask what camgirls make, because just like dancing, the money probably depends on the amount of work and dedication you're willing to apply....but I feel like the money is always there with camming, as long as you're willing to get online and get it. With dancing, either the $ is there or it's not. (But it's usually there.) Is this basically true?
    I'm curious about the experiences of pregnant camgirls....I know this is the best place to work a fetish angle, because where do you go to find sick fucks who love watching me gargle my own breast milk? Why, the internet, of course! But how do pregnant camgirls do compared to their regular, non-pregnant counterparts? Either way, it's definitely more money than I'll be making at the door, in the club. Or worse, home with no job.

    Any additional advice is welcome...I've read a few stories of pregnant camgirls, but I'm just trying to get a good idea of both fetish work and camming in general.

    Thanks ladies.

    I have cammed on and off for about 3 years on SM and MFC, and have been dancing for around 3 months.
    People are alot less afraid to be mean, offensive, vulgar, and/or rude on the internet, and there have been a couple times I have been reduced to tears by people's words in my chatroom.
    With dancing, most people are able to accept that you have boundaries. And if they can't accept your boundaries, you have a bouncer make them leave. If they do say something that really grinds your gears, you can slap them in the face.
    With camming, you have to be your own bouncer. You also have to deal with more people who are expecting freebies than paying customers. Anybody can click into your live feed (except if you block certain states), and trust me there are fools in every single corner of the globe and many will find their way into your chat.

    Granted, if you become frustrated with chat you can log off and *poof* you are in jammies in the comfort of your home. I'll add more to my comparison when it's not my bedtime.

    Honestly, Im kind of burnt out from this whole damn industry right now so my opinion is kinda biased...Camming vs dancing, I guess bc im introverted I like camming for that simple fact alone, but thats it! I do get burnt out with it quicker. Especially on a site like streamate that has the traffic but lower payout percentage, so eventually the whatever youre getting payed for a min starts to annoy you. Like i feel like I really work for my money with camming which might be a good thing to some people.

    Ive had my best night ever with dancing and I actually had an incredible time making that money. I went home energized, happy, etc and realized why i loved dancing so much. My best night camming i couldnt wait to log off and soon as i did i went to sleep for like 10 hours straight. Ive never cammed pregnant but Ive been pregnant, and camming puts an emotional/mental strain on me at times, so i couldnt imagine dealing with it pregnant! Maybe guys are nicer when youre pregnant and realize that youre carrying a baby idk. I cried every other day damn near when I was pregnant over stupid shit like disney movies, people telling me how weird i looked etc, so if someone said something to me while camming, as strong as I am, while pregnant not sure how i would respond lol.

    I would say try it a few hours a day but dont strain yourself bc being pregnant itself is already mentally and physically exhasuting....Granted I have seen tons of threads on women who banked while pregnant and for a while my boobs were lactating and still do sometimes( kind of weird my kids are 3 lol) but Ive gotten tons of generous regulars who loved that so idk. Or focus on making clips or possibly a real job, i know that if your club has smoke eventually thats gonna really start to bother you. Good luck and if you or anyone here needs little girl items i ahve tonnnns of stuff I need to get rid of

    I wouls start out on a site where free chat is optional rather than mandatory like on mfc. That way you should make some money right off the bat and not deal with half as many freeloaders. There is a big market for pregnancy, both in camming and content.

    hi farrah welcome to CC! i have been a dancer too that transitioned into camming since you are pregnant you HAVE to make a Clips4sale store! check out this thread about it to learn more. http://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sho...ps4Sale-Thread you will make good money off of the pregnancy fetish guys. make TONS of clips while you are pregnant and you can even keep selling them long after you have given birth.

    my suggestion would be to sign up on both myfreecams and streamate. they are the most high trafficked sites and it is good to have a couple of cam sites to hop between when one may be slow or ur just not feeling that site that day. i will tell you that being a dancer is a bonus when entering camming, the skills that we learn from dancing can be easily applied to camming. but the online hustles can be challanging at times, constantly changing up ur game and sometimes lack of motivation can be a killer, freeloaders constantly in ur face - but thats just life of a camgirl, lol.

    here read up on both of the threads to help prepare ya

    Lack of motivation especially, someone tell me how to work when you feel repulsed...

    I was a dancer for 7 years before I transitioned into camming about a year and a half ago. Honestly, I still prefer dancing, but the clubs in my area now are just not the kind of place that I like (all about the stage girls, letting anyone with a pulse work as a house girl, random one-off dances, no VIP rooms, champagne rooms, etc. I like working clubs that are gown clubs and all about selling your time by the hour). I figured that if I was going to be making my money by showing myself to that many guys every night, I may as well do it at home where I can work during the day and have a social life again!

    The big differences that I have found:
    - it takes much longer to start earning well. Especially if you are used to being a higher earner in the clubs, it can be hard to adjust to. When you are dancing, you are basically on a level playing field with every other girl, whereas on cam, you have to build up your placement. Its sort of like if a club had a series of rooms, and the guys came in the front, but you had to work your way up from the room waaaaay at the back, over a period of time, depending on what you earn.
    - You have a much wider customer pool. (this kind of makes up for the above) In a club, there are nights where there are just NO customers. Or very few....while there are slower nights on cam, you have access to anyone with a computer, rather than anyone in the same room as you. Its kinda cool.
    - You will be doing far more fetish work. Brush up on your fetish stuff, because you'll get a lot of requests for things you would never hear of in the clubs.
    - People can be far more mean, but hey, they can't touch you! WIN
    - Personally, I still find it difficult to hustle a big group of faceless names - if you are good with batchelor parties, you'll find it much easier.

    All in all, I am happy camming now, and when you are a new mommy, it'll be much easier! But if I move to a new place where there are the kinds of clubs I prefer, I am going back to dancing, and combining it with camming.

    Good luck! And congrats on your pregnancy too!!
