What is up with people (cough models) who have a mile long list of their ethnic background. If you have a list that long then you aren't anything but a mutt and what difference does it make anyway.

Can’t you just search by “nude” models?

I've never had this problem.

True, and funny. Luckily my page says nothing of the sort aside from the question they asked me when I signed up for this thing.

But to answer your question imo, I've noticed that sometimes certain ethnicities are 'in' and some photogs jump on the band wagon and want to shoot whoever has that in their blood even if it's only a fraction. Other times some photogs (and I've been contacted be a few) seem to 'specialize' in shooting a specfic look. Still other times it could be a try appealing to those who want/need to diverify ones portfolio.  Or the model  may just want to take the long winded route to say mutt to meet that 100 character minimum in the "about me" section and sound exotic. Not me I'm an all American mutt and damn proud to say so.

Mutt??? are you really?
Think you're gorgeous...but not a "mutt"

mutt
noun

      slang:
      1. A dog, especially a mongrel.
      2. A foolish, clumsy person.

Where do people find terms like that omg!
