Gives such a clear picture now! Actually the first newsletter was very "educational" as I had no idea simp was used that far back in that way, but the modern usage is definitely targeted at the dudes who subscribe to onlyfans in hopes that their charitable offering is somehow noticed by the woman and that they'll somehow receive some crumbs of the coochie not unlike money flowing to them from the trickle down of voodoo economics.

But seriously... I have done countless hours of research (and by research I mean I spend all day looking at /r/cringetopia) on said simps and I can't seem to find any reason that these guys will spend so much money on a girl's onlyfans to get nothing real in return. I get the aspect that these aren't typical pornstars (yet) and could easily be the girl next door that you had history class with in high school but... if you aren't planning on meeting up with her in real life, what's the point?

Even more baffling are the dude's who finance twitch girls like pokimane. She's like a goddess who is gifted sacrifice, but doesn't do shit to help the worshippers' crops next season. She's not even going to get naked for them. But... they'll likely continue to leave offerings each time. I'm still so confused. Like... she has millions of followers, does some dude on twitter think that she'll see HIS message out of the millions are seriously meet up with him in real life? I'd have way more sympathy if it actually... ya know... made sense.

Only reason I can think is that I've seen men hedge bets on women. It's the same reason why they'll go on 100 dates and pay for all of them. They swipe right on everyone. It's a technique. Why do people play the lottery? It's a special heuristic where people think they're going to be the one. Maybe they're not going for coochie crumbs, but rather the whole cookie, however unlikely it may be. Also, they follow the simple truth about hetero relationships: Men desire is Youth & Beauty, Women desire security & status.
