Showing face on cam. Good or bad idea?

[Maria]

Hello everyone,

Thanks for reading this.
In the past I went on cam without a wig. But then I started to wear a wig. Because I became a bit scared after hearing of someone who got into trouble after being recognized from the cam.

I see that there're so many girls on adultwork who just show their face.
I guess it can't be all that bad as I fear that it is.

I also think by not hiding my face I show that it's just a normal job. That I don't think that I've got anything to be ashamed for.
I really wish that we, the cam models and working ladies could come out of this damn closet. That we could just be open about the job that we do without loosing friends and getting into trouble for it.

If politics wants us to be more protected then more should happen so that people will just accept this as a normal job.
It would also make it way easier for those who want to stop working as a model to find a new job. Now we need to lie all the time about what work we do or have done in the past.

Especially for those girls who got into this, because there were abused. This must be extra hard on them. The are victims of terrible twisted minds. Now the still are, but being seen by society not as victims, but as bad or dirty or immoral woman.

I'm just a bit scared of getting into trouble as I do more then just this job. My close friends and family know what I really do. The rest don't know about it.

The most heard question that I get from those who know is:
Can people recognize you who've seen you on cam?
I always answer with no I wear special make-up and a wig.

But I wouldn't be surprised if men were able to recognize me from my voice or my eyes or something.
I also used to earn more money when I didn't wear a wig. As my income is more and more dropping on adultwork. I'm more and more thinking about taking the (for me) big step of going without a wig on cam.
It also would be way more comfortable for me to work without a wig. It can be such a hassle putting it on and then it's also so warm on my head.


I would love to stop wearing it. But I'm just a bit scared of taking that step.

Well your one step ahead of me, I have one friend who knows what I do that's it lol.

The way I see it if I get recognized, well what were they doing on an escort/cam site in the first place lol, I don't have a face pic on my profile (a recognizable one anyway) or in my pictures, they only see my face on cam - so they are paying for it.

Tbh I don't think the stigma is as bad as you think these days. I do what I do If people don't understand that then maybe I need to have a look who I consider to be friends..

Anyway thats just my take on it lol. Good luck with it babe Just enjoy yourself!!

I used to be worried about showing my face, not because of myself but because I didnt want to shame/embarrass my family. But after being on cam for yrs now, I really couldnt care less who sees or knows. They are the ones coming on a porn site in the 1st place and it makes me a decent income :-))

I don't show mine except in paid chat. I don't care what my current family/ friends think, but you have to think of the future implications on your children. I would rather keep things private now than have any possible children have problems because of me. I also think seeing your face is a special privilege and is an extra selling point to go paid x

You are right Katie. I saw many girls on LiveJasmin or Others that aren't showing their face in free chat and i think that this is a great move. You want more you have to pay for it.
