I’ve never visited OF; only speculated what could be happening on a website like this.

"Just because something isn't criminal, doesn't make it a good idea" I need this on a bumper sticker!

"The members send pictures of their members." I died.

Dr. Grande I am actually interested in hearing your thoughts on the psychological effects of pornography. Especially with modern internet pornography, and its effect on young people.

Dr Grande as an Only Fans creator: "I'm not diagnosing you. I'm only speculating on why you are here" 😂

[my_tube]

They should at least be honest: LonelyFans.

I never speculated on Dr. Grande being cute, but this pink shirt kinda diagnoses it in him.

I thought this is anouncement for Dr. Grande's OnlyFans page

I modeled for 7 years. I had a busy schedule. There was a cowboy that frequently showed up at my shows and appearances. He pretended to be with a newspaper and got my schedule info. He started getting behind the stage and then dressing room. He was convinced we had a "connection". Even after i told him I was much younger than thought. It didnt stop him. It got a bit creepy. I dont think its worth putting yourself out like Only fans. Theres plenty of ways to track down where you are located. Its a false sense or security being online.

hi Dr. Grande! this comment isn’t related to today’s video, but I started my first psychology class today at college, and during my pretest one of the questions asked “what are the five big factors of personality traits?” i knew right away, because of the acronym OCEAN!! it made me so happy! i’ve learned so much watching your videos over the last few months and I’m so excited to be learning more in school!!

Dr. Grande talking about d*** ratings being unscientific SENT me 😂

[jimswan]

never thought i’d see the day where Dr. Grande’s face and the OnlyFans logo are next to each other in a thumbnail 😂😂

I don’t like when they say it’s empowering to women, look if it’s empowering to you man or woman that’s fine, that’s u personally. I don’t care what strangers do, hope ppl stay safe and do what they want, but it’s not something I would promote to my daughter or anyone in my family.

Knowing a lot of models on Only Fans in a professional capacity (video editing and so forth) I find a lot of them to be neurotic narcissists. It's a weird tug of war between thinking you're the greatest gift to mankind and constantly feeling like you're worthless.

[rondaherriott]

Does the content have to be explicit? If not, I kinda want to start an only fans where I make videos dressed matronly, telling members I’m proud of them and they are worthy of love. And to eat their vegetables.

[tomomishore]

"That is to say the object they are rating is better than it really is, which isn't dangerous in itself, but it is anti-science." LOLL good one Dr. Grande

[froonamission]

"Republican party, Democratic party and Underwear party" ... I don't think the world truly appreciates the quality of Dr. Grande's shade skills!

[jackwood]

The world is getting to be a “Black Mirror” episode.

[ronque]

Dr. Grande spared no expense in “researching” this topic for his loyal viewers.

[lindsaygrace]

Thank you so much for doing a video on this. I have tried so hard explaining to friends why this isn’t healthy
