Work, Women & Covid
Why Work Isn’t Working for Women and How the Pandemic Unmasked Our Unconscious Bias
A harsh look at the staggering problem of women in the workplace. And COVID-19 might not be to blame.
Millions of women lost their jobs during the pandemic.
By the looks of it, this damn pandemic just won’t end. And when it’s finally over, who knows how many women will be out of work?
Some of those jobless women turned to OnlyFans to get back their monthly incomes. Selling nude pictures to random strangers on the Internet.
Jah Bella—not her real name—is one of those women.
When Jah Bella joined OnlyFans at the beginning of the pandemic, she had recently got fired from her job. Now, she only works four days per week, snapping photos and videos, and sharing glimpses of her body online.
The weekly payouts from her OnlyFans subscribers are way more than she could ever imagine at a regular 9-to-5 grind.
For Jah, she had no choice.
She was jobless, had a newborn daughter, and was in an abusive relationship where the baby’s father wasn’t providing financial support.
