I couldn't imagine any place that would be more fun to go... hanging out with four coked-out entitled twenty-somethings, with IQs that average 85, having a fabulously interesting discussion whilst they all share a grape for lunch.

The Model Lounge.

Not to be confused with the Model Cafe in Allston (Boston).

Models wear makeup well, can pose and walk and work with photographers. Most of the folks on a America's Next Top Model are plain with "meh" bodies with a few noteable exceptions (including Tyra). Strippers and Porn Stars get my vote for "if I was at a party full of girls, what kind of girls would they be?"

It depends on the party, and how long I was going to be there. For example, I wouldn't want to hang out with 20 strippers for an extended period of time if they weren't stripping.

Most of the strippers I know (a few from college) were the most selfish, catty attention whores in town. When two showed up at the same party, it became an opportunity for them to make snide remarks and glare at each other.

Attractive people have better genes and deserve special treatment do they don't get cancer or other problems that average people get.

Don't argue, it's science. Keep the best people healthy and your population should reap the benefits. Don't cut down the healthy people - you've heard Rush's "The Trees", so learn something from it. don't just hear it and forget.

Change your life and the way you think about your life. It will make you a better person. Happier. Healthier. And just better in general.

But don't interfere with the people who didn't have to put in all that work - it just messes with the natural imbalance. Let them be their glorious selves while the rest of us toil in shiat, giving the sweat of our brow as a sacrifice to these blessed people.

MetaRinka 2009-07-17 05:02:45 PM  
hrmm I was a model for awhile. It was a good college job as it was very easy and laid back, then again I experienced it from a guys perspective and there was a lot less pressure on us over our looks.

form my experience a lot of those models are nervous wrecks and or have body issues because their looks are under a microscope all the time and there is always someone who is taller, more leggy or looks better or whatnot in those types of clothes. It's a very tenuous position to be in when your looks are you meal ticket, and just like fashion trends change.

Overall I ran into very few models that were extremely self righteous or had a better-than-though attitude. Fashion people though (designers, photographers etc) they had extra loads of crazy and attitude.

All that being said I think fashion people are absolutely ridiculous and I never understood it.

That's ridiculous. What qualifies one as a "model"? Does the fact that I have posed for art count (I mean for an actual artist, not what the average farker is thinking)? What about catalog models? Hand models? High fashion models only? What about the ladies who model for church fashion shows? I'm not exactly dying to get in, just curious what the parameters are.

MetaRinka: All that being said I think fashion people are absolutely ridiculous and I never understood it.

This x several gazillion. I was just in the world's most overpriced guy/gal resale clothing joint in NYC - honest folks, you could get new clothes for less most places - and there was a whole page of rules up about what kind of stuff they wouldn't buy. Nothing without a known designer label from a known store, nothing more than 1 year old, plus really prissy shiat like "nothing high waisted" and, I think, "no amazing prints" - anyway, they didn't want anything amazing.

This was in the überghey neighborhood, which I was crossing to get to High Line Park and take pitchers. So maybe they're super attentive to the minute dictates of the designerati. But screamin' teenage Jesus on a dirtbike, what a lame-ass preoccupation. Do they even know what gold-plated tools they are?

/Basically, if you couldn't get it at a big sale for half what they were charging, they didn't want it.
//What kind of store doesn't want to sell something because it's amazing? Is there some secret ghey meaning of the word "amazing" I'm unaware of?

Or maybe a quick visit to a plastic surgeon might improve your mood? A little make-up doesn't hurt either. And get yourself some nicer shoes for a change. Maybe fix up your hair a bit, lose some weight and have your teeth whitened.

Well, I think they're going for the ultra thin "fashion model" look because if they fall short of it, they're still between "fashion model" and "porn star".

If they slut it up and go for the porn star look, other women will hate them.

Guess they are to good to even be around the general population. The very people who made their shallow careers and existence possible.

I did not think anyone of them looked all that gorgeous.

Without the professional makeup and photoshopping of their shoots they are pretty and above average in beauty but nowhere near what they look like in print it seems they think they are far more valuable to society then they really are.

Giving them their 'own' place to go is more a favor to the general population. IMO

Because you don't need a Ph.D. in fashion to be a successful model: you just need to be tall and thin.

Remember, models can have a very short shelf life; some drop out of college or high school to pursue a career based solely on how they look.

Hardly. A certain (extremely small) subset of models (runway, high fashion) have to be tall and thin. The rest of us have to work our asses off under very strict regimens -- sometimes for many years -- to get and maintain exactly whatever look the agency is trying to market this week. The ones who are not only genetically ideal enough to land a modeling job and land the roughly 1% of available gigs that don't require any extra work to match spec, are a vanishingly small percentage of the industry. I have never met one one of those mythical creatures.

To assume that say... a fitness model, or an underwear model, or even the models on otherwise innocuous aisle markers at a Target somewhere, are just genetically "lucky" and aren't spending the equivalent of 40+ hours/week trying to get and maintain the look their bosses demand, just demonstrates how clueless and petty the accusatory party is.

I'm just annoyed at the shocking double standard: why making inferences about a person's lifestyle, personality, or mental capacities based on looks is completely socially acceptable if they're models, but not if they're at the opposite end of the spectrum.

Like I said, I don't do it anywhere. It was how I put myself through college. But I'm continually shocked how code or other engineering feats I pull off are retroactively downgraded or viewed with higher suspicion once someone finds out I used to model. I've had bosses say to my face, in public: "You know, I was very hesitant to hire you at first, because I was convinced you couldn't be very intelligent. Glad I was wrong!" And rather than reacting with awkwardness or shock at the faux pas, everyone within earshot laughs approvingly.

Maybe being constantly defending oneself from constant snark and perpetual underestimation is why TFA's club was set up in the first place.

Fark that. I got sick of obsessing over not looking perfect. I've decided I'm attractive enough. Don't agree? Whatever.Some of the best people I've ever met weren't much in the looks department. If a small percentage of people wants to be obssesivly shallowing by strapping the blinders on and only seeing whats on the surface, have at it.

Right. And again, this does not require a Ph.D.

I'm not sure what you're referring to here: supermodels or body part models (like hand models for hand creams, etc)? Either way, it doesn't require intelligence or further education.

To assume that say... a fitness model, or an underwear model, or even the models on otherwise innocuous aisle markers at a Target somewhere, are just genetically "lucky" and aren't spending the equivalent of 40+ hours/week trying to get and maintain the look their bosses demand, just demonstrates how clueless and petty the accusatory party is.

Getting and maintaining the look the bosses demand does not require a doctoral thesis, which is my point. It might require getting to the gym regularly.


I'm just annoyed at the shocking double standard: why making inferences about a person's lifestyle, personality, or mental capacities based on looks is completely socially acceptable if they're models, but not if they're at the opposite end of the spectrum.


Let's face it: how many intelligent models can you name? How about models with advanced degrees? I can think of only Christy Turlington, who has a business degree (?) and her own company that makes yoga wear.


Like I said, I don't do it anywhere. It was how I put myself through college. But I'm continually shocked how code or other engineering feats I pull off are retroactively downgraded or viewed with higher suspicion once someone finds out I used to model.

And rather than reacting with awkwardness or shock at the faux pas, everyone within earshot laughs approvingly.


You're right: there is a double standard. It's because modeling is a field that does not require higher education; it requires good genes and regular gym workouts.

nuclear_asshat 2009-07-17 10:48:15 PM  
I had a friend who used to bang the occasional model. He worked in some bullshiat media relations compay doing nothing but pretending to be important. Basically what people on "The Hills" do.

He was a pretty good looking dude and was very funny, so he pulled model ass all the time. After a night of drinking I divulged my jealously. He basically said the novelty of banging models wears off extremely quickly. Most are used to guys kissing their asses and spending money on them, and aren't any better in the sack than your average college girl.

Now, I suppose it's one of things things I'd rather tire of myself, but I'll take his word for it.

 
johnnydrama 2009-07-17 11:16:29 PM  
What is interesting about being attractive is how differently the world treats you. The "halo" effect. You don't have to develop a winning personality to get attention or relationships, because these are handed to you through little or no effort. I remember when I used to be attractive and I wished I wasn't, so that people would stop talking about me. You also tend to have lower self esteem because it is likely that your self esteem becomes based on your attractiveness.

I mean, I'm fat and ugly now, but I can still remember those days. I actually prefer being this way, because you get treated like a person and not a body.

Because most fat people are at least intelligent enough to know that they are fat, even if they deny it in public.
Most models on the other hand... the ones I have known here in southern cali couldn't win a battle of wits with a cinder block.

There are exceptions of course, but what usually happens when a person gets whatever they want in this life because their parents have money or they hit the genetic "beauty" lottery is that they don't bother to develop their minds or their personalities. Why should they do that? It's too much like work, and when you have to work at something it has more value than when it is handed to you.

then

if so then
the chances of meeting a man who slept with a model are exponential

So how many men do you know who have slept with a model?

Models are just like any other girl and people, they like sex. So to answer your question is many, and yes. I have several.

Then again a lot of people in the industry have a hedonistic nature, its not bad...just the occasional heart break and crazy.

So how many men do you know who have slept with a model?

Models are just like any other girl and people, they like sex. So to answer your question is many, and yes. I have several.

Then again a lot of people in the industry have a hedonistic nature, its not bad...just the occasional heart break and crazy.

Lots of models in Atlanta?


He considers anyone who has posed for a picture to be a model.

No, just lots of "models" in Atlanta.

Funny, and what do you consider?

Is it someone who's paid? I know several. Some only $500 a week, some make $6000~$10000 a week. They aren't super models, but still get paid well.

Is it someone whos thin and tall? Well that's idiotic for anyone to think only thin and tall people can be models. You're supporting the stereotype. But yes, many of my girl friends I consider model material are about 5'8" and taller, but there are some who are shorter.


Compared to LA, Miami, and New York there are not many models in Atlanta. That's the nature of the business and where the business is. It's there though. Pretty much anywhere there's a bit of fortunate 500 companies who need a pretty face there will be a bunch of models.
