    Well, I'm staples (yes, my real life friends actually call me staples for various reasons you probably don't want to know about). I've been camming for 6 months though I tried once when I was a sophmore in college. By tried I mean I signed up for ImLive and turned on the camera and just kind of sat on the edge of my dorm room bed. I had no clue what I was doing.

    I've always liked the idea of camming, I also do amateur porn on Southern Charms. I really want to be doing fetish art. By fetish I mean BDSM/kinky whips and chains shit but it doesn't sell as well on SC so I tend to stick to cutesy stuff on there.

    I got the opportunity to explore this side of myself when I started dating my boyfriend about a year and a half ago. He's a professional fetish photographer and he really just wants to make his living from boobs though he has to work a second job but hey that job is for Harley Davidson so it's still kinda hot.

    Anyway I love getting to know people in my line of work so feel free to try and get to know me! I still technically have no clue what I'm doing but I'm learning every day.

    I cannot find any place for asking general questions and yes I search lmao but so funny that it doesn't really do any good to search sometimes so I posted it in the sm thread to see if I could get an answer cause that's where I cam but anyway how do I use a butt plug and what is the main purpose to plug it and forget it or just play? Thanks lol.

    It kind of depends on a number of things. I like to play with mine. Some people just put it in and then do other things. They make ones that have tails attached and guys really like those. Some are inflatable so the point of those is to play of course. Generally in a cam show a guy is going to tell you what he wants you to do with it.

    Also just something I've discovered, I have better luck finding stuff here on stripper web by searching with google. For this I would have googled "Stripper Web Butt Plug" or even more specifically "stripper web using a butt plug" I don't know it seems to give me better results than even using the advanced search function here on the site.

    Thank you for this thread! This forum is a wealth of information, but it is very intimidating. I'm kind of terrified of posting a new thread for fear of being attacked with "do a search" posts.

    I'm a new camgirl, but like a previous poster, tried it in college. It was on ifriends, and I went online like twice. I got one short private who left after a couple minutes without saying anything, and I took it personally, figuring he thought I was hideous/fat, and never logged on again. lol.

    Now I'm older and a lot more comfy in my skin, and would love to make this work for me! My retail job is slowly killing my soul. I'm also painfully shy and introverted so approaching and talking to customers makes my adrenaline and stress levels skyrocket. My dream is to make enough at this to quit.

    My problem right now is I can't cam until I tell my bf. I did it 4 times on CB, but the guilt is too much. I keep trying to figure out how I'm going to word it, how I can even bring it up! It's so out of character for me, he will be shocked. There was a bf post not too long ago that had some good tips that I will be using to "talk him into it", but I'm really nervous that he will say it's out of the question. If anyone has been in a similar situation, I would appreciate any advice.

    Ugh. Thanks for letting me vent a little.

    this has been said in some of the stickied threads too i can second that the google search thing works better sometimes. i think the reason why is because the search on the stripper web takes the keywords u used in the search box then list them from posted recently to further back and google does a more accurate and "deeper" search and puts more relevant things at the top if that makes sense

    Thanks alot ladies wow my question was answered alot more openly here. Let's please keep this thread alive I think the glass is a great idea I will totally try that one and maybe the tail. Inflatable that sounds scary lol. I use to do anal and then stopped I only did it when drinking a few times sober but after I stopped drinking I stopped anal lol. I have tried anal ease with the bf he likes it. I do anal finger play in exclusive only but I wanted to start small with a plug and get used to it before full anal with toys. I only have a few requests for anal not many I just figured it will help my earnings more. Thanks alot guys. See what I mean by saying keep this alive there was no judging no rudeness just niceness lol. BTW SNOWY I read your post about having issues camming I think ur great and maybe a new comp. will help u out. Just try to smile stick it out through the slowness from my experience sm is very good yes it can be slow I sit three hours sometimes with nothing but I find giving it a long hard ten hours a day you should and probaly will hit your goal just put the time in it is hard but it pays !! Good luck.

    Hi ladies. I have been on SW since last year. I mainly lurk and never talk. I have come here for some awesome advice and love this forum. I am just getting back into camming after 6 months off. I am also 6 months pregnant now and trying to find the energy to cam. Has anyone cammed while pregnant EVERY day?

    Hey,
    Sophie here. Model for over 3 yrs, tried adult work and stripping this year... lol late bloomer. I have been camming on SM since spring. I envy you younger girls... Somedays doing this can be fun... other day downright depressing. I loved dancing but found a lot of rejection from club managers so it was too depressing to continue for me. Kind of same with camming. I can usually make $300-$600/week which I guess is pretty good but some weeks... not so good. I have a Master's degree in healthcare and like Staples, I enjoy this work. If only the vanilla world would get over themselves. lol I guess all of this was my mid-life crisis... oh well. SnowOStar has been so helpful to me. I have signed up for other cam sites but find them intimidating.. I spend a lot of time reading here, there and everywhere.

    Lovin' SM Feeling like it's time to raise my rates and my goals.
    The only thing that bums me out is how strict the outside communication rules are, I would LOVE to tell my SM guys to find me on twitter. I'd also love to be able to mail out gifts and cookies and whatnot for highest tipper of the week or something. :S But that's okay. It's also nice to be able to get on, work, sign off and forget about it until the next time I sign on.

    I did well on SM yesterday,today I can't work bc of backpains. Its a little bit slower for me than the last couple of months, but I have been sick for some weeks in between which can also be a reason why it is slower (I have to be more consistent, and I keep trying to follow my schedule but my backpains mess things up).
    Iam back at almost 50% paid chat this week (some weeks before I wasnt hitting more than 40%)
    I feel like saving a buttload of moneyto buy my own house, I cant stand my little apartment anymore (1 of teh reason I think I have backpains is because I do not have the room inside my cammingroom to do more than sitting on my bed.. Well I can stand, but when I do I have to move the c am and my background will change for the worse (white plain door- shoewall etc) instead of a nice coloured wall

    How are you doing now shy_exhibitionist?? Have you told youre bf of youre camming interest?

    I also talked to my partner first before trying it out. I even told my parents before getting to work online. For me it was a bit easier maybe, because my partner allready knew I was attracted to such "kind of jobs" (I wanted to poledance when being a bit younger, and loved to idea of performing on stage he allready knew this- although he wasnt really supportive of that idea because he thought it was an dangerous environment- men, stalkers, drugs, alcohol). So instead he was happy I choose to do this instead of live performing.


    - Maybe you can try to find out what he thinks of camming and sexual work in general before telling him that you want to do this yourself? It makes it easier when he is openminded about it allready, although it will be hard if he allready has strong believes against it.
    - Maybe you can also write down or think about the pro and cons camming will bring you (and him), and be open and upfront about both and how you are about to deal with the cons.

    It helped my partner to let him know I was taking my privacy very serious, and will have a geo blocking, change my hair and eyecolour, have two fake names (one for the site and another fake name which is supposively my real name), changed my skincolour (tanning I am very white from my own), will not tell anyone private matters etc.

    If my partner would have forbidden it, we would have had serious problems. I think this also helped my partner to get over his ego (he really didnt liked the thought first of "sharing" me with others- I explained to him in details why he shoudnt see this as "sharing"), he knew I would have done it with or without him. It was my lifegoal to start this and make a career this way. We did discuss a lot, and I also had to emotionally pamper him a lot, so he could handle it in the start. Now that he knows how I deal with clients, he isnt jalous anymore (he wasnt jalouse a lot in the first place, but now it is at a 0%).
    Also I love to make this "oure thing", letting him know the guys who enter the chatroom are in the end paying for oure life together (he does has his own job and money, but I didnt and when having this job I can support myself and get richer than I could have with my bachelor- he knows this job which will pay MUCH more, and it will make me very unhappy to work a vanilla job)

    My favorite question at the end of my workshifts is always "guess what I have earned today sweety?" Because I love to suprise him, and I still do. I <3 camming



    BTW I started camming after a lot of research. Also I was jobless at the moment (I was just graduated) and there was no positive outlook on getting a job soon. So I could only make more money with this, since I was making nothing at all.

    Okay, so i'm really not sure if I am posting in the correct spot, but I was wondering is there anyone else here that works for Secret Friends / IPG ? If so what do you think of them? Im new with Secret Friends but I have been on MFC for a while now. I was wondering if anyone had problems with being paid with IPG, I am in Canada so I know that if I get a check it will take longer and what not, but I am worried I am wasting my time, as i heard some not so good things about them. Any advice would be appreciated !

    Thanks ! xx

    Just wanna drop by and say HEY GIRL HEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYY to the newbs. I still feel like a newb camming about 6 mos in. I was grateful to find this website and have gotten to actually meet some of the lovelies here.

    I still find myself starting off sentences here with "Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask" or "I tried the search but couldn't find....." so, I know it's a bit intimidating sometimes.

    All the best to everyone whether new to camming or just new to the forum!

    Wondering also how new girlies feel about their rates? You don't have to give specifics but do you change and experiment or have you been a bit too afraid to?
    Mine started at 3-something for both excl. and private. Now I'm at 4.99 each (not a fan of privates really- I prefer exclusive, so they're the same) I emailed SM about raising them and they asked how much I'd like them to be "they're already 4.99" D: Made me feel bad for asking lol.

    Let's talk about newbie problems: backpain. Yikes. Never knew arching the back and popping out the butt would be so exhausting. >_< I try to keep my posture tight so as not to hurt my lumbars any more than they are already, but pain is also becoming a problem against camming every day. Oy vey, the pain.

    Im sorry April I never even heard of that website, so I cant help you out on that one.

    When I started at streamate I started at 2,99 pvt and 4,99 excl. I thought 4,99 was the highest you could go back in those fresh newbie days. When I found out about stripperweb I found out you could raise them up by mailing the support of sm, so i did.
    It took me a while to get beyond the 4,99 private chat and 6,99 excl, I was so afraid the customers would stay away, and even more by getting the feeling of not being "worth" that money.
    When working at around 8 months I upped my prices to 7,99 pvt and 9,99 excl, which I thought was a pretty daring move straight from the 4,99 to 7,99. I kept a part of my former costumers and made a lot more regulars at this price (which was really suprising to me).
    I was scared the whole first week with my new prices, it kept haunting me; I thought I was asking to much. Also I was draining myself by wanting to give them *the best* experience for their money.
    When being longer at this rate, I learned to chill out and relax, which is far more attractive . I always want to give them 100% and that tends to take a lot of me. I know I still have to learn to take things less seriously, or at least shoudnt be worried that much that it makes me literally sick.
    I just cant go back at a lower rate, I thought about it for a while since the last month is a bit slower. I would be so dissapointed when I would check my earningspage in between

    I am SO glad you mention that Tigrillo. I thought I was the only one.
    Since 5 months of camming it wa sgetting so worse I had to take 2 months off, got an osteopath, had massages, took medication. I coudnt do barely anything anymore.
    I still cant take on my socks myself . It really sucks.
    I was I had a healthy spine again, I feel like I suck sometimes as a cammodel because I cant really move fluently at most time since my back hurts that much.
    Also I have to watch my movements and dont do extreme things, I would so love to be without pain and just being able to perform like the way I want.

    I hope my body will addapt
    It helps me to change positions a lot while on cam. Also stretching my legs now and than, standing up from the bed

    Stretch five minutes every hour, even if you are in free chat say it's your yoga break or you are limbering up for your next private. Just that quick five minute stretch every hour can really save your back. There is a super old thread with some other tips, I'll try to find it later and link to it, because I remember it had some good tips for dealing with stiffness and pain. Hope the five minute tip helps though.

    It does help, so much. Yesterday I woke up so stiff I could barely sit in the toilet, so I found and did these two long stretch outs and they helped immensely. But I hadn't thought about stretching during my time online.... I'll look for a power 5 min routine, and I guess the guys wont mind lol.
