A model deconstructs the glamorous lifestyle often portrayed on social media, explaining that what appears to be a life of luxury in places like Ibiza is often funded by men and has a dark, predatory side. She describes how young women are recruited into this 'circuit,' which they don't label as 'yachting,' and how they eventually have a moment of realization or 'wake up' from the experience, often after falling in love with a normal person.

You'll see models in Ibiza. You'll see them in all these different places and think, oh, wow. Look at their life. Like, this is so amazing. They must be rich to have these experiences. Like, no. There's a man funding it. And I'm sure it's not... I think it's actually, like, very evil and hedonistic under the surface of this Instagram picture and even this photo dump that looks so amazing. Like, there's some really scary, predatorial shit that happens. Right. And it sucks because a lot of young women get recruited into this, like, yes. I don't even wanna call it yachting per se because I think that'll throw some people off because, like, a lot of the women that are... Young women that are a part of this circuit don't even... Would never say that they're yachting. They would never say that. They're like, oh, this person's my friend, and they're flying me out. Yeah. But it it gets really sketchy and scary. And I think that tier negligence to what's actually going on recruits younger and younger girls, and by the time they age out... And I say age out not to say that their beauty expires, but they kinda wake the fuck up. Yeah. Maybe they fall in love with a normal person and they're like, oh, that's fucking weird that I was doing that. Mhmm. But you can get just so addicted to that circuit too. And, you know, when you're around even famous people and these, like, bad things are happening around you or to you, you just ignore it. You swallow it.
