Attn Models: How To Not Get Hired
Came across this in a model's profile today - sure makes me want to work with her! to the photographers: please don't ask me personal questions. i've done modeling for awhile and as a model, i don't give out personal information and don't ask me for sex. i've done photography with several photographers and all of them have been professional and have never even dared to ask me that. if u do i will cuss u out guaranteed. Now why would even put that in your profile? If no one has ever asked you that, why even bring it up? Is this the "I am so hot and you must want to fuck me" syndrome? This is a perfect way to not get a job. Aug 30 06 09:59 pm Link haha that's ridiculous! Aug 30 06 10:03 pm Link ? If it's never happened before, why does she expect it to happen now?

Those that are that defensive give off a vibe that screams "unpleasant." I'm with you...life it too short. There are too many other lovely people out there that don't assume we are all vermin.

Aug 30 06 10:08 pm Link lol can we photographers put disclaimers like that on our profiles ha ha ha Don't ask to have sex with us in exchange for pictures and stuff ha ha ha, that probably happens more then photographers asking models to sleep with them.

Is just easier to get a job done if it's possible to communicate. Aug 30 06 10:13 pm Link LarryB wrote: Ifen U type lik' dis peeps mite gits annoyzd en tink Ura iediot.

The only thing that makes this sweeter is discovering a sluggo MM member. Aug 31 06 12:58 am Link a new term has been spawned gwv, guy who''s vermin? Aug 31 06 01:03 am Link Wow. Did this chick think that writing that would halp her? I'm sorry, honey, whoever you are, but if you're trying to model you need to be confident, but not like that. And you need to understand that no matter who you are there is always someone sexier/prettier/more attractive (...etc.) than you, face it. Besides, photographers are around so many models that you're nothing exciting anymore, they're used to models. Well, unless they're just pervs. Don't accuse everybody. That's just Bull.

Aug 31 06 01:21 am Link Can we get her name and leave her nice posts?

Even when i was a teen in an aol chatroom i had the common decency to type out words in their entirety. Hell i even knew the difference between You're and Your. Aug 31 06 01:26 am Link the worst part is when you call people out on their spelling/grammar and they start using the old "thank you teacher, but this isn't school" argument. last time i checked, learning proper english wasn't just for satisfying your teacher. it was so you can communicate with other people and not make them think you're an idiot. Aug 31 06 01:37 am Link Smart people learn from their mistakes. Really smart people learn from others' mistakes. Aug 31 06 01:50 am Link Brian Diaz wrote: lol, I think that definately applies here... Aug 31 06 01:52 am Link LOL... very funny Aug 31 06 01:52 am Link I'm sorry, but I don't get this. Obviously, I haven't seen the portfolio or the profile, and she probably doesn't come across as an elegant professional catwalk model. But she sounds feisty and down to earth in a wysiwyg sort of way, and it wouldn't put me off contacting her if I felt she was right for a particular shoot. Photographers can be too precious, as well... Aug 31 06 02:09 am Link Envy wrote: hahaha... seriously... huh??

Aug 31 06 02:24 am Link Greg Kolack wrote: Because the "photographers" who send her messages have asked her that. She didn't say no one asked her those questions. She said no one she worked with asked her those questions. Aug 31 06 02:32 am Link hmm well i have something last i checked my profile about not wanting egos either with the people i shoot. but what would make her state not to ask her for sex? i'm sure it happens that photographers have here and there tried something in the world but if not with her why would she state that? i certainly don't go to a shoot thinking i'm going to get sex much less even think about trying. all i can say is good luck to her and if anyone actually approached her on here for it then she should have complained to the powers that be Aug 31 06 02:32 am Link theda wrote: Awwww...you're no fun.

Aug 31 06 07:52 am Link I would be very reluctant to photograph her. With that attitude there could be problems.
