Due to the development of technology, the issue of the preservation of private life every year is more acute. At the same time, the reverse process is going on: right now, thousands of people around the world are online so that others can watch them. And serious money is spinning in this industry: The New York Times wrote back in 2013 that the annual circulation of sites that provide webcam models is hundreds of millions, and probably more than a billion dollars. It is difficult to evaluate the income of such a business, but we can assume that the indicators are growing. The hero of this material-the webcam-model from Yekaterinburg, the student-wished to remain anonymous. He told the author of Samizdat Pavel Polshchikov about how his working day passes and whether there are prospects in such a career.
I am an ordinary guy, I live in Yekaterinburg, I study with a medic. In general, my life is not very different from the life of most of my peers, if you do not take into account my work.
A few months ago, one dude wrote to me in an application for dating and offered the work of the model. I immediately notified him that I had not come out with growth and all that. To which he replied that growth is absolutely not important. According to him, the work was that there is such a studio where you are sitting and just on the webcam with all kinds of people from America and Europe.
The office of this “modeling agency” consisted of three rooms and the common hall, where the administrator sitting on the schedule sits-he teaches models, arranges a set, monitors order, and helps in the event of some problems. In each room there is a model, there is light, a computer, a monitor and the webcam itself. In the general hall there is also a kitchen, washing machine and shower. In training, they again told me that this is ordinary communication, and you just make the company to single people. Later, when they showed me working models, I saw that there are nine out of ten people sitting and masturbating in front of the camera in anticipation of an “interesting interlocutor”.
The system itself is arranged as follows: there is a site where there are rooms-rooms-these are pages where guests or memes (registered users) come in. There, I and other models are sitting in Fri Chata-this is the mode in which we receive messages from users. We answer them, set some topics for discussion, we can throw users out of the Rum, block, call in privat, make notes about them, so that it is more convenient to memorize, with whom and what I talk about, and everything is in that spirit. Guests can only look after you in Fry Chat and write to you. Members have more opportunities: they can offer transactions, that is, take you to privat, for example, not for forty loans per minute, like your standard price tag, but thirty, or vice versa, more, can give tips for completed tasks or just beautiful eyes, as well as Power-Busters-this is a free thing that promotes the model in the ranking on the site.
When I studied the website of the studio that my employer threw me off, it was possible to find prices on it. It turned out that the model on average could receive about 8,000 rubles a week, and with good work this figure can reach 40,000. One of my colleagues was really able to earn such an amount, but he had to work fourteen hours a day.
On that site they also promised something like beautiful vacation and interesting corporate parties, and given which people I work with, corporate parties should really be interesting, despite the fact that we always have different inventories in the studio in abundance.
As it turned out in the process of work, the prospects of enrichment are strongly dependent on English knowledge, knowledge of the language is really very important, because it is specially, for security reasons, access to the site from the CIS countries is blocked, as well as from any other countries, at the request of the model. Most of the money comes from the United States, so my knowledge of English turned out to be very helpful.
In the end, all prospects depend on desire, mood and liberation. Because if you look the truth in the eye, then yes: there are people who pay me money for turning on them the music that they order, and we just sit chatting; But most of the people need to be interested in, seduced, and some kind of their secret desire to fulfill. That is, if a model can, for example, use a dildo, then its potential earnings will be much higher.
The nature of Russian feminism Samizdat went on an expedition to the abnormal zone, but instead of the mysterious place of power, he found women whom the Russian history itself was forced to read. 
Among my colleagues at work there are different people. Of those whom I know, one girl is very cool and sweet, she is a student. Psycho -emotionally, she seems to be fifteen, and it is very strange that she works here, but anything happens. Another Chelik is no longer doing anything, he is about twenty -three. One dude once held a brothel with girls, plus his webcam studio, and now he works as a webcam. His brothel closed because he wanted to enrich himself so much that he once hired a girl, who was fifteen, and he was almost planted. In short, the contingent is very different: there is one dude who came and said that he was a virgin, but at the same time he earns very well. In general, there are a lot of natural ones - apparently, the opportunity to earn above the principles.
As for my customers, it is difficult to make an average portrait. Although it is mainly gays, mostly thick, mainly bald, mostly old. But there were several women, most of them had some kind of fetish from the series “I am your mother, I want to feed you breasts, come here, son.” And we cannot portray minors not in the private, as well as drink, smoke, use drugs, show blood and sleep. Therefore, I am: "lady, no, maybe only in Privat."
I have many regular customers, and they are quite interesting people-some engineers, offices, banks. Bankers, by the way, often go on some business trips, and therefore ask: “Hey, are you from Moscow or from St. Petersburg? I'm nine days here, do not want to come to my room? " But I am: "No, I'm sorry." It is impossible to contact them, to transmit some personal data is also prohibited.
There are, of course, strange cases. One BDSM perfume somehow spent a lot of money on me, and he had such inclinations: “I am a holy father, repent in your sins.” Well, I repented, as I could, he liked it, asked me to bring clothing clothing for the nipples and a whip. For every repentance he gave me ten lashes. Then I portrayed Christ for a very long time suffering from the sins of mankind, until the “Holy Father” let go of my sins and allowed ”to make a monastery.
There were women with a fetish from the series “I am your mother, I want to feed you breasts, come here, son”Twice they offered to arrange golden rain, but I refused, because then I would remove it all. The most crazy and funny of what was ... there the dude was just a footfitheist-by the way, there were a lot of them among customers-so he asked me to portray for an hour, as if I were fighting his eggs, well, during this hour I just waved my feet in front of the camera, like a supermegracaratist, and for this I got something around twenty or thirty dollars. Moreover, this client initially really wanted to see on my legs the ninety -fifth “airmax”.
One more time there was a wildly ridiculous story: the client in the chat writes to me something like "Do you like to laugh?" “Well, you know, I have an insanely small member, and I want you to laugh at me, somehow humiliated all that.” He himself looked like such an elderly surfing, who abandoned his career very much. He really did not lie about his size, so it was really not difficult to pipe over him. Although it was even somehow sad; He also used a magnifier so that I would consider everything better there. As a result, I just sat and enjoyed from the situation, because I am sitting and just getting money for the person who fingering me on camera with the help of a tweezer.
The most unpleasant for all the time of work was that I found out that customers could invite me to turn on their cameras and see how they look. When I first accepted this proposal, the sight was not pleasant. I understand that I need to be in the image, tune in and all things, but my member just falls. Until you see them, it all seems to be such a game, and you can somehow imagine something in your world, say, and when you see who you say this, then you are: uh, no, thank you.
If you think about it, then in the work of the webcam there is something pleasant-from the series, when the lovely guys do not ask for any perversions and they say thank you for having given them a little time. And it is very nice to hear this from people from all over the globe. And quite often I feel that my self -esteem began to increase, and that I am no longer worried about my appearance or lack of posture, because I know that at least ten my regular customers like me. I was also more convinced that everyone has some kind of dark skeleton in the closet and that it is absolutely normal until it bothers anyone. The work changed me in the sense that I revealed some previously unknown aspects of my sexuality. And in terms of attitude towards people, I really began to more calmly perceive different shit and calmly treat some pieces from the series "You know, I have a fetish: I love to crush the beetles with my feet." This is normal, Okay, everyone has their own fetishes, the main thing is that it simply does not interfere with other people.
