OnlyFans Millionaire Skylar Mae Slams Manosphere Men as 'Insecure Losers'
In a scathing critique of the online manosphere, self-made OnlyFans millionaire Skylar Mae has branded its male influencers "insecure and a joke" who are fundamentally threatened by women's success. The 21-year-old Australian content creator, who built her fortune on the adult subscription platform, spoke exclusively to Victoria Richards for The Independent's Independent Women newsletter, exposing what she sees as the movement's deep-seated hypocrisy and outdated beliefs.
The Manosphere's '1900-Era' Mindset
Skylar Mae didn't mince words when describing the manosphere's core philosophy. "These guys are such douchebags," she stated bluntly. "They are obviously against the feminist idea of women working. They still hold old, 1900-era beliefs: that a woman should just be cooking, cleaning and taking care of the kids while the men work."
She emphasized that in contemporary society, women should have the freedom to work while also managing domestic responsibilities if they choose. "These men think women should be caged in the house, taking care of everything, which is completely wrong," Mae added, highlighting what she perceives as the movement's regressive attitudes toward gender roles.
Dangerous Messages About Dominance
The OnlyFans star expressed particular concern about how manosphere influencers promote male dominance. "I watched one guy say he knew 'more about women than they know about themselves'," Mae recalled. "The one thing I took from that was that all women want to be dominated, and that men are entitled to put themselves inside their women as they please."
She warned that such messaging could have dangerous consequences for young male audiences. "For a young boy to hear that, it could seem to condone sexual assault – and might make them think it's okay," Mae cautioned. While acknowledging that some women enjoy consensual dominance in intimate settings, she stressed that the manosphere promotes male superiority across all life aspects, which she believes teaches harmful relationship dynamics.
Hypocrisy and Financial Insecurity
Mae pointed to glaring contradictions within the manosphere community, particularly regarding their treatment of OnlyFans creators. "The fact that some of them own OnlyFans agencies, yet talk shit about OnlyFans creators and roast them – whether it's for content or not – shows how insecure they are," she observed.
The financial disparity between her earnings and theirs further underscores this insecurity, according to Mae. "Some of these men seem to get all excited about £5,000, when I literally make that in an hour on my OnlyFans account," she revealed. "They have to spend their time streaming all day long – for 23 or 24 hours – and they're acting like they're on top of the world, doing better than most of us OnlyFans models, which is so wrong."
Relationship Advice and Double Standards
When it comes to dating, Mae offered straightforward advice that directly contradicts manosphere teachings. "My advice to men trying to find a relationship? Act normally," she said. "Outside of the bedroom (and sometimes not even then), most women absolutely do not want to be dominated and told what to do. That is 1,000 per cent my advice for people trying to get into a relationship."
She also called out the movement's double standards regarding relationships. "I think these manosphere 'influencers' are insane for believing they can go off and sleep with other women, but women can't go and sleep with other men," Mae stated. "If it's going to be an open relationship, it needs to be open from both sides – and if they can't handle that, then they're losers."
Broader Cultural Context
This interview comes amid growing scrutiny of the manosphere, particularly following Louis Theroux's Netflix documentary "Inside the Manosphere." Critics have questioned whether such coverage inadvertently amplifies toxic voices, while others have noted the irony that misogynistic dangers often gain mainstream attention only when highlighted by male documentarians.
As Skylar Mae summarized her assessment: "They just can't handle women doing well; they're so insecure. They're a joke." Her comments provide a rare insider perspective from a woman who interacts professionally with manosphere adherents while achieving financial success they often claim to champion.
