I hate it when photographers will title a photo "fine art nude", or "artistic nude" as a means of getting away with their extremely trashy style of photography, lack of lighting, and often unattractive model. Just my personal opinion, not trying to stir anything up... but to me, a FINE ART NUDE would be the Birth of Venus painting for chrissakes!

I agree.  I think fine art nude is not what we think it is anymore.

Any word used to refer to different ethnic groups in a derogatory way.  That includes some words already mentioned. Although you will find me using the terms, Asian Chick, White Chick, Hispanic Chick and any kinda Chick to describe many chicks often, I don't mean that in a negative way. Besides, I'm called a chick all the time and I don't take offense.

I don't like the "F" word, cause it doesn't sound good coming out of my mouth. Although my favorite phrase is "F--K You you F----in F--K" after I saw it on a t-shirt in NY with my best friend who uses the word often.

Joey: All right, Rach. The big question is, "does he like you?" All right? Because if he doesn't like you, this is all a moo point.
Rachel: Huh. A moo point?
Joey: Yeah, it's like a cow's opinion. It just doesn't matter. It's moo.

I'm not a fan of the word "story" when used in fashion to refer to a photo or series's theme.  Coming from a writing background, "story" has a very different meaning to me; it's either what one writes or the plot, which really frustrated me initially.  My photos often don't have plots, and thinking that they should distracted me from just making good photos.

The quotation marks were to indicate that I was refering to the word, not the thing itself.  But I might still go take a "bath."

I've been noticing, more and more, that people are out to critique photos and photographers for just about anything EXCEPT the photos.

What words they use to describe the photo, the border they put on the photo, how big the copyright is...

I think some people are just looking for something to bitch about.

Oh goodness, I could make a long list of words I really don't like. Here are only a few of those such words:

Hate-very strong word

the "n" word- when I was young, my parents moved to a town that we later found out the people were very prejudice, and many of the residents used this word freely...I didn't like it.

this next one has three words...Ku Klux Klan- seeing as how I grew up in a low-income family, my dad was dark-skinned (black dutch/Irish mix...so mostly Indian or something), plus, we had friends of all nationalities...we were visited a few times by the infamous KKK. It is a very scary thing to experience at the age of 8 in small-town Oklahoma....

Ok, more words...

Redundant- this one is just annoying. I don't know why

Poor- I had heard this way too much growing up, it gets old after a while.

Honkey- Why on earth would someone call another person this? It's ridiculous

"Jesus Freak" and "Holy Roller"-why do some people insist on calling all christians this? To me, that is just as bad as using the "n" word. I mean, I don't go around calling my Hindu or Muslim friends names because they don't believe exactly the same way as I do religiously....that would just be...well, ignorant.

I also don't like when people misuse words, or misspell them. Since speed-reading had been introduced, it seems that many people are not learning proper usage of words, or how to spell them correctly. Take time, and actually enjoy what you read. Learn from it. Just like the old saying goes, "Reading is power."

Soooo, you hate artistic art nude shots that many people mistake for edgy fine art, which the GWC classifies as high fashion, but in reality it's porn because all the GWC cared about was landing a TFP session so he could see the model's vagina.
