Teacher who resigned after her OnlyFans page was discovered says new employer fired her for violating social media policy (www.kbtx.com)

Had to supplement her $42,000 per year teacher salary with OF and made nearly $1 million in six months (almost 50 times as her salary) before the school caught wind of it and forced her to resign. Got a new job out of education and was fired five days later when they discovered news articles about her.

Edit: To those basically saying she had it coming because she made her OF account public...

Sex work is real, valid work.
There is nothing wrong with sex work. Sex-shaming is Puritanical horseshit.
"But her students could find her OF!" is a problem their parents should have to solve. It is not her responsibility to use an alias, because of points 1 and 2.
Every other argument criticizing her for her sex work during her non-teaching hours is fucking moot.

Comment 1: “ 'Not having to get up and go to a 9-to-5 has been tough on my mental health,' Coppage said. Oh, the humanity! That poor thing. "

[Small discussion on personal habits]

Comment 3: "She'll be right in between two dudes pounding away if this news is correct"

Completely absurd^

Well you're the one who claims she'll be 'in a better place' when she finally gets over the comfortable 9-5 grind and stabilises into the getting pounded for wads of cash during, hopefully, a more flexibele schedule

I don't see why we have to tip toe around the specifics

There's a fundamental difference between "tip toeing around the specifics" and extrapolating for a general case.

Her specific lifestyle is irrelevant to whether improving financial stability leads to increased wellbeing.

If I were to improve my finances getting boinked on the reg by some juiced up dudes, I'm sure that won't be irrelevant to my wellbeing

Everyone's sexual preferences are different. I, personally, am not interested in making an OnlyFans account. However, I respect a consenting adult's right to do so. I'm someone who respects and appreciates personal freedom and autonomy.

I am working under the assumption that she has not been captured and extorted by sex traffickers.
