Let me save you months of denial and confusion. 97% of your viewers will be gay men. Not women. Not couples. Gay dudes.
I know that's not what you wanted to hear. I know the cam sites show you making bank from horny housewives. I know you're straight and this feels weird.
But here's the thing - this is actually the best fucking news for your bank account.
💣 Truth Bomb
Gay men tip 10x more than women. They're online 5x longer. They're 20x more likely to go private. Your sexuality doesn't change. Their money spends the same.
The 6-Month Data Breakdown
I tracked every single viewer, tipper, and private show for 6 months. Here's the demographic reality:
| Viewer Type | % of Viewers | % of Tips | Avg Tip |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gay Men | 97% | 98.5% | $12 |
| Women | 1% | 0.5% | $2 |
| Couples | 1% | 0.8% | $5 |
| Unknown | 1% | 0.2% | $1 |
Why Gay Men Watch Straight Guys
They're not watching because they think they'll "turn you gay." They watch BECAUSE you're straight. You're the fantasy - the guy they can't have in real life.
What they're actually paying for:
- The "straight guy next door" fantasy
- Masculinity without the gay mannerisms
- The challenge/impossibility aspect
- Authenticity (you're actually straight)
- The taboo of watching someone "unavailable"
Why This Is Actually Perfect
Gay men as your primary audience is the best case scenario. Here's why:
- They have disposable income - Higher average salaries, fewer kids
- They're online at night - Prime streaming hours
- They understand the transaction - This is entertainment, not dating
- They're loyal - Find your niche, they'll come back
- They tip for personality - Not just looks
The Money Difference Is Insane
Average earnings from 100 viewers:
- 100 female viewers: Maybe $20-50
- 100 gay male viewers: $200-500
I'm not making this up. Check any male cam model's room. Count the obvious male usernames. Look at who's tipping. It's dudes. Always.
But I'm Straight...
So am I. Still straight after 2 years of camming. Still only date women. Still can't stand musical theater.
Your sexuality isn't determined by who watches you on camera. If it was, every male actor who's done a romantic scene would be in love with every woman who watched the movie.
This is performance. Entertainment. A job.
What About Female Viewers?
They exist. I get maybe 1-2 per stream. They rarely tip. They never go private. They're usually just curious or bored.
Women generally don't pay for sexual content the way men do. It's not good or bad, it's just reality.
If you're camming "for the ladies," you're going to be broke and frustrated.
The Bottom Line
You have two choices:
- Accept that gay men will be your audience and make $3-10K/month
- Hold out for female viewers and make $50/month
I chose option 1. My bank account is very happy with that choice.
Your move.
