what you are doing is degrading....
I'm a college student so I'm on that facebook.com website. On that site I have a photo-album with a few of my modeling pictures in it, because I am proud of my pictures. None of them are frontal nude but a few are implied, but nothing showing. On a site like that you can't have that. Now one person I knew from high school write this to me:"just wondering? how tall are you? cuz if you're not almost 6 ft, isn't all of this taking your clothes off kind of pointless? I wish u the best of luck girl, but um, isn't what you are doing kind of degrading?" Anyone have a response to this? I'm kinda pi$$ed about it actually. Apr 11 06 10:13 pm Link Someone's just trying to get a rise out of you. Best to ignore trolls. Apr 11 06 10:15 pm Link Tell him - Maybe...but you still you try to get girls with the package you're sporting...you should understand impossible dreams. Apr 11 06 10:23 pm Link Well, I've got two questions for you then.... Is the email from a guy you turned down? Or a girl that you ended up taking thier boyfriend from them? Either way, let it slide. Don't worry about it anymore, because it just isn't worth it. Do what YOU wish to do in life (and so long as it's legal) make yourself happy in the progress. Apr 11 06 10:25 pm Link I looked at your portfolio... The only type of person that could consider what you've done to be degrading, is an overly religious, conservative, who isn't comfortable with thier own body. Your suggestive shots, and the one topless shot that you have, were all tastefully done. I think you have potential in modeling. Just ignore the person who emailed you that. It would be nice to see a few more smiles though. Most of your pics look so serious.... Just my two cents...

As a general rule, best to ignore people who make no sense. Like the people on the subway who rant to themselves. Oh, wait, they are talking on cellphones.

That is so degrading that I will give you some work if you want. Feel free to e-mail me and we can talk about booking. The only thing that really matters in this industry is what the industry thinks, not the rest of the world. There are those that would be offended by a bikini shot of Claudia Schiffer. Nothing you are doing even remotely ripples of inappropriate or excessive. If you like modeling, brush it off and then send me the e-mail. I think you have a great look. Apr 11 06 10:40 pm Link Ignore him/her and get used to people putting you down. You have to develop a thick skin.Even the top models around, and photographers, have people who say negative things to them. You are a beauty and to me you have a body and looks made for the creation of beautiful art and many other types of work.So what if you are not a 6 foot tall stick. Apr 11 06 10:52 pm Link let it slide girl. im on facebook too... people can be jerks sometimes... no matter how well you think you know them. you are beautiful... dont take shit from anyone. delete his/her comment, and forget about it if you can. Apr 11 06 11:00 pm Link Your nude work is very tasteful .. not degrading at all .. Just the opposite ...You are a classy young girl. Apr 11 06 11:00 pm Link let it slide girl. im on facebook too... people can be jerks sometimes, including my good "friends", who post mean shit all the time on my page. you are beautiful... dont take shit from anyone. delete his/her comment, and forget about it if you can. Apr 11 06 11:01 pm Link You're awesome!! Do not allow the ants to spoil your picnic!! Ignore them and they will go away!! Have fun, take pictures!!!! Apr 11 06 11:02 pm Link I have my portfolio full of proud nude women. You should be proud too. If there's anyone trying to turn you down, know that's it's because they are envious. You are a beautiful woman - be proud. Remember, it's not half empty...

Aw, man, and I was just about to do a nude shoot of Denzel Washington licking whipped cream off of me...oh well. LOL. Apr 11 06 11:33 pm Link Reply: "Kiss my ass. Oh, no, you wish". Apr 12 06 12:12 am Link I would ask him/her just what exactly makes him an expert in the modeling industry, especially because there are absolutely NO agencies out there that require a female model to be 6 feet tall in order to represent her. Apr 12 06 12:20 am Link Facebook?? I'm on that site-and I've seen far more tasteless things there than exist in your portfolio...ex, girl straddling inflatable palm tree, holding up "toys"...(and I suspect this is why the high school facebook members can only see profiles/albums of immediate friend links.)

The very web address screams "shallow meetmarket"...And it takes a lot to make a pornographer call something "degrading."

Apr 12 06 07:08 am Link Girl your paying attention to what some college people say.. i got some of my pics on facebook too...and i dont pay attention to what anyone on there says.. Half of them wont even make it outta college or make it afterwards...so I wouldnt stress and press what they say....they losers who are on facebook 24/7 Apr 12 06 08:18 am Link Ignore ignorance...is all I have to say! Whoever wrote that to you is obviously so blinded by jealousy that they are just stupid to the fact you images are art! Tell this to suck a toad and get a life! Apr 12 06 09:17 am Link I'm on facebook and most of the people on there who have seen my albums who I went to high school with are just jealous. In high school I was super skinny and nobody paid attention to me. Then they see pics of me modeling and its like whoa. You're probably going through that too. That b*** is just hatin! Apr 12 06 11:19 am Link The worst thing you could do to him is simply ignore the fool as the others have said. Act like he isn't even worth a second of your time. Apr 12 06 11:22 am Link It's only demeaning if you're doing it right. mjr. Apr 12 06 11:29 am Link Lynn Elizabeth wrote: Why do you care? If you're not ashamed of what you do, if you're happy with yourself, why do you care about some pissante opinion? Apr 12 06 11:41 am Link an obvious moron with 0 artistic insight,,,what does height have to do with anything? Apr 12 06 11:45 am Link an obvious moron with 0 artistic insight,,,what does height have to do with anything? Apr 12 06 11:46 am Link High school is over now. Live your life, enjoy your life, don't let others take your joy in life from you. Apr 12 06 11:52 am Link Jealous/ignorant people will do anything to try to bring you down. The best thing to do is to ignore them......all they really want is the satisfaction of making you feel as bad about yourself as they feel about themselves. Brush it off, your work is beautiful! Apr 12 06 11:56 am Link Tell him that your shortcomings don't bother you half as much as his shortcomings bother him... Apr 12 06 11:56 am Link |
