Porn and sex work has long existed but since the pandemic, there's certainly been a mainstreaming of it. With everyone at home, and with fan site platforms giving anyone with an iPhone the ability to run an adult business. These platforms have democratized the industry, put a ton of cash in the pockets of performers, and diversified the types of content we see.
As the pandemic set in with lock downs coming into play, we began to nice a ton of traffic on a story we published last year with the top JustForFans performers in 2019. Likely as a result of people wanting to diversify their subscriptions, it posed as a year-round resource guide. So in line with that, we reached out to the site again to get the numbers on 2020.
Below, are the top male performers on JustForFans, all queer. They are ordered by number of subscribers.
Last year's list only encompassed cis performers but this year, in order to reflect the platform's all-inclusive impetus, they've also released a list of the top trans performers.
“We are the first porn site to not only acknowledge, but celebrate cis, trans and non-binary performers — which we are doing with this Top 15 list of JFF favorites,” JustFor.fans founder Dominic Ford said in a release. “We’d like to share our appreciation so new JFF members can discover them and share their appreciation too!
“We believe that trans men are men and trans women are women. That’s why our male and lemale lists show both trans and cis lists under their categories. We are also mandating that anyone who carries our lists of any gender include both cis and trans lists of that gender.”
Congrats to ALL our models who were able to get through 2020. It was an incredibly tough year for sex workers.

While he was in the top 15 last year, Maddox has shot up quite a few spots to top ten this year.
