Amouranth took to Twitter to clap back at everybody claiming it is easier for women to be successful on Twitch. Actually, to say she clapped back is an understatement: Amouranth went full on Kanye on Twitter. Question is: Is she right?
Recently Twitch has been all over the news – and our website – with all these ladies promoting their OnlyFans accounts or doing hot tub streams:
- Indiefoxx is Taking This OnlyFans Stuff Too Far
- Hot Tub Twitch Streams: Perfectly Fine or Perfectly Shameless?
