Man goes viral for urging moms to use food banks instead of joining OnlyFans

A man has gone viral after sharing his controversial beliefs on a podcast and urging struggling moms to use food banks instead of joining OnlyFans.

Since the app was first released in 2016, OnlyFans has seen well over 1 million creators join the site to post adult content and earn some extra money.

With the pandemic and increasing living costs leaving many struggling to get by each week, more and more women have made the switch to OnlyFans, either as a side hustle or to replace their 9 to 5 jobs.

However, not all approve of this new income avenue. A man has now sparked debate after chatting with Irish plumber-turned-adult worker Andy Lee about the increase of moms using the adult content-sharing platform.

In a clip posted to Andy’s Instagram, the man known only as Steve was asked his opinion on single moms turning to OnlyFans due to being unable to “physically afford to feed their kids.” Steve had been invited to come for a chat by Andy after frequently commenting on the adult content creator’s videos.

“What I’ll say to you is this — there’s food banks, mate,” Steve replied. “If you can’t afford to eat, you can go to a food bank and get yourself some food.”

Andy clapped back at the idea, saying, “Why should they? When they can afford it if they do OnlyFans?” But Steve stuck by his thoughts on the matter.

“What? Instead of getting their rat out on camera?” he said. “What is your kid going to see when he’s older? Do you know what I mean?”

Many were unimpressed by Steve’s stance, including Andy who retorted, “[The kids are] going to see that they had such a great life growing up.” Andy even shared his personal experience, revealing he had a “very poor” upbringing and would have thought no different of his mom had she turned to OnlyFans to offer her children a “better life”… assuming of course, that the app existed then.

Viewers shared a similar sentiment, sharing their own experiences in the comments. One said, “My mum goes to food banks every week and always comes home with crap that she wouldn’t normally eat and food that’s out of date, I would 100% rather be able to buy my own food and eat what I want.”

“I find it wild [that] someone would suggest using a food bank over having a paying job that contributes to society!” another said. However, some did still agree with Steve’s opinion; “There are far more respectable ways to put food on the table.”
