Nothing's wrong with nude.  Just don't talk about it in front of people who are ignorant and will feel uncomfortable about nudes.....

new to this modeling buzz. WHAT IS A GWC?

GWC=Guy With Camera

It's a derogatory term for a wanna-be photographer.  Many use it to qualify anybody that  shoots  what they consider sub par work or to classify less talented individuals, but a GWC is really just a guy that uses his camera to get chicks nekkid to increase his chances of sleeping with pretty girls.  Some of the most talented indivuals int he world are GWC's.

LONG LIVE THE NUDE.

Whats so bad about trashy some of my best friends are trashy... but they are not poorly done ... usually  they are about medium rare to fully baked LOL...

By the way all nude models should consider them selves pornagraphist-eses  and all nudes are porn in disgiuse  LOL .... ( Kidding ofcourse. But I actually heard that once!)

Nothing at all, so long as it's woman. Nude women are works of art that are celebrated for their beauty, but nude men? That's different. Nude men are a stigma that are discriminated against because many women think of them as vain exhibitionists and many men feel they'll catch a stink of gay if they look....

There is nothing wrong with nude.  I think the human body is beautiful and as long as the photograhy is done tastefully, I don't see why anyone would be ashamed.  To each his own.  As for the weirdos out there, models just need to have half a brain and do reference checks before she (or he) decides to strip down for the photographer.

I agree,

This is simple, if you feel comfortable do it, if you feel uncomfortable don't do it, it really comes down to how much you trust your photog.  this is the difference between "artists" and GWCs.  I've seen ports here where the the nudes are difinatley about what the photog gets off on, and i've seen ports where there is obvious respect for the model.

you have to ask yourself: can i respect the person i am working with, and can i respect myself after the job is done.
