I understand a fantasy and a one time thing like tipping on a guys night out at a strip club, but some of these guys think they are in a relationship with someone they will never meet and don’t even know their real name or life details.

    We live in a society. I know that’s a meme, but I’m using it genuinely. We interact directly with others, and the consequences of their world view extends to how they vote.

    A maladjusted person may lash out at innocents. That isn’t restricted to how they might eventually treat some poor cam girl. They can and do learn bad behaviors such as stalking and harassing other women in their life. In some cases they turn to violence.

      And none of what you said is indicated by people just throwing a couple hundred bucks at a performer they enjoy. We’d need way more info.

        I did not mean to imply that everyone who behaves that way is going to shoot up a sorority down the road. I merely wanted to make the point that what other people believe can have a big impact on me or people I care about.

        So while I’m not saying they can’t spend money how they want legally, it is a concern that further development of incorrect beliefs (that someone cares for you romantically because they flirt for money) could manifest itself in more serious ways.
