I make $2,000 a month from rating penises on OnlyFans. I've had to learn how to humiliate people.

• Tegan-Leigh Grey, 25, from the UK, sells sexual content on OnlyFans, including "dick ratings."
• Grey was surprised by how many people want to be humiliated.

This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Tegan-Leigh Grey. It has been edited for length and clarity.

I'm an OnlyFans creator who makes $6,000 every month from feet pictures, "dick-rating" videos, and more.

I started doing OnlyFans at the end of November 2022. I'd always posted pictures of my tattoos on a public Instagram account and people started asking if I did OnlyFans. I hadn't considered it at the time — I've got a boyfriend, I was worried about weirdos, and I didn't know how safe it was.

I was working 40 hours a week in a bar while studying at university and the money I was taking home wasn't going very far.

So I set up an OnlyFans to see what would happened.

I've done around 300 dick ratings, including 50 humiliation ratings

The first month I was just figuring out what I was doing. I thought I'd just be posting pictures, but I looked at the accounts of other OnlyFans girls and saw I could be offering other things.

In my second month, I started a price list that included different types of dick ratings, which is where someone sends me a picture of their penis and I score it on several factors. I have three options: a written message for $12, an audio message for $15, or a topless video for $20.

I haven't done a single written or audio message, they've all been topless videos.

In the beginning, I struggled to make in-depth videos because I'd never given a dick rating before. I wouldn't exactly be yelling "10!" at my partner's penis.

But as I started doing more I learned how my clients wanted to be spoken to.

I base ratings on everything from photo quality to how the penis is presented

Now I rate people's penis pics on several factors including: the penis itself and how aesthetic the photo is.

I enjoy giving ratings and I like giving details, too. Ratings are fun to make because every dick is different, and there's something out there for everyone.

If a customer has a kink I'll cater to it. For example, some people enjoy being humiliated and say, "Tell me it's disgusting."

I'm still learning how to talk to these people without feeling like I'm being rude. Even if I didn't like you I wouldn't actually be mean to you, I'm not a tough person.

But now I realize that's what gets them off and my aim is to get them off.

Some people want me to humiliate them because they have a small penis. I'll say things like, "can you even pleasure a woman?"

It sounds horrible but they want to hear it.

If they don't specify a kink, I assume they genuinely want to know what I think of their dick.

The average rating is probably an 8.5 out of 10, I never really go lower than a 7.5 out of 10, unless it's a humiliation rating. I like to give them a confidence boost because I feel like it might help them to go out and get laid that night if they're feeling good about themselves.

I've only ever given one 10 out of 10. Everything about that one was perfect. But a big penis doesn't mean it's necessarily it's a 10 out of 10.

I didn't realize how many people want to be humiliated

When guys want to be humiliated, I usually rate them between zero and one, but nothing higher. The first small penis humiliation rating I did I just said: "I wouldn't have sex with you," but he wanted it meaner.

So now I get into their mindset to see what they actually want. I insult them and say things like they will never pleasure someone.

I think a lot of guys with small penises who I've spoken to are just owning the fact that they are small. They think no one's ever going to say it's big so they like being humiliated as a way of getting off, like "I have a small dick, and what?"

But I've also had guys who want me to tell them their dicks are not big when they are. I was expecting a little dick and when I opened the picture it was huge.

I've done around 300 dick ratings since I started them three months ago and around 50 of them have been humiliation ratings. I didn't realize how many people want to be humiliated.

From doing all these dick ratings I've learned that a lot of men are more insecure than people realize. They want someone they consider pretty to tell them she'd have sex with them.

I think I'll do OnlyFans as long as I can, even when I'm old. It's not just about the sex. It's about talking to people and interacting. As long as people want it, I'm going to do it.

My subscribers are lovely and actually care about me. And I really care about what I'm doing on OnlyFans. I don't want people to think I'm just taking their money, it's something I enjoy.
