Women of all ages are increasingly finding independent wealth in America. I don’t hear a lot of feminists applauding that but they should if they actually care about freeing women instead of controlling them. Case in point: Donna Mills was Abby on Knots Landing in the 80s. The 85-year-old has already made many six figures on OnlyFans in less than a month. This is not an endorsement of the platform. It is a fact about what Hollywood does to women when they age. The industry stops writing checks. Mills pivoted and it paid. She says the content is suggestive, not explicit. She also says fans ask for odd videos and she plans to deliver some. That’s her call. It’s legal. People are paying. Independence at 85 is still independence. I hope more women keep finding ways to get paid on their own terms. I’d prefer to see them find a wholesome version if they can. But the point is she is not waiting for a network to decide she still matters. Taking initiative can pay in ways you never imagined.
