BS: Male models

Whenever you see pictures of male models in newspapers or magazines, why do they all look like they've been dressed by someone else ? or like they've been dressed by their mothers ?

Female models can look great but men always look really wierd.

Because they have! When Spaw was a male model he had people dress him. They learned the art from Louis XIV. That dipshit was dressed by his servants, and the fall of France was directly linked to his stupid gene.

It's the company that you keep, Dave.
Male models are wearing clean, pressed, clothing, and they haven't sat down since they put their jeans on. Not a wrinkle anywhere.
Not at all like anyone I associate with, and obviously not like Dave's pals either.

I hired a guy to help me once. Halfway through the day he told me he'd done some modelling and was looking for more. He couldn't sing, couldn't dance, but he was quite good at standing still.
Once was enough.

Well said, Gurney.

I must tell y'all that I had NO intention of linking Spaw the Model with Louis XIV nor implying that Spaw was, is or ever will be a dipshit. If any offense was taken by anyone, I sincerely don't give a rat's ass.

Thank you 999999999999........I gave it up because there was no way to compress the bulge of my dick spooler which I use to keep my pecker rolled up so it doesn't drop through the cold water onto the muddy bottom when I pee off high bridges.

I know what you mean about the male models though.......Always kinda' wondered about Flamenco dancers too since they seemed to be applauding their own ass..........

Don't let Spaw bullshit you, folks. The real reason he had to give up being a male model is that the clothiers couldn't afford the cleaning bills to get the odour de fart out of the clothes after he modeled them.

The modeling business is one of the vastly many things the damned human race concerns itself with that I have never understood. Do the advertisers really expect us to think that by buying their clothes we will (1) instantly look like conventionally pretty men & (2) thereby get laid? If pictures of clothing actually have to include people, they should be people invited randomly off the street & compensated by letting them walk out with the clothes.

I think the sexiest, most attractive pictures of clothing are the ones that show it being worn by invisible people. I love the catalogs that do that.

What always gets me is that most of the female models look like are on smack or are bored out of their minds. Or both. I thought fashion was supposed to be fun.

One of the props that is often used for modelling men's clothes is a fishing rod. It always looks as if the model has never held one before, and he is looking at the camera, and no water is in sight, and the shmutter is new.

That looks bad enough without adding weird looks to the mix, Bobert.

They always look very unnatural, probably look like Barby and Ken without their clothes, ie. no body hair and no wedding tackle.

Now to pictures advertising men's underwear.

There seem to be three rules:
1. The model must be handsome.
2. He must have washboard abs.
3. The shorts he's wearing must be padded to simulate a large penis, or maybe an erection. Failing padding, the picture must
be retouched to achieve that impression.

What I find really weird about male models is the perfectly smooth, tucked-up look of their clothes. Not a rumple, wrinkle or roll anywhere, as if they were poured into the ensemble and then Simonized.

And then one day I found myself helping out in the dressing room at a charity fashion show. Ya know what? Every garment is indeed pulled taut and then pinned in place to stay that way.

That weird expression they all have comes from the terror they all feel at the very real prospect of being stabbed at random.

Why don't female models look equally strange? That's easy. Discomfort is the norm for women's clothes, especially shoes and underwear, and female models are also habituated to the misery of maintaining a size 0 figure. The poor creatures are used to the abuse.

All in all, modelling has to be the worst way of making a living that does not involve using digging implements to move excrement.

Good point, Charmion. It's not boredom, but rather weakness from hunger!

My husband was offered some paid modelling work for a sculpture and Art class. They were looking for an African face and body. He was a bit hesitant, and when I gently explained he might have to 'reveal all' he was absolutely horrified!

I've been thinkin' of gettin' into that line of work part time so as to make a little more dough and represent apes in the fashion industry. What I would like to model is casual and formal wear of the urbane and classy type...suits, sport jackets, fine leather shoes, fedoras, London Fog raincoats, that sorta thing. I already got experience wearin' stuff like that, but my restricted finances have limited the scope of my repertoire, ya might say. As a male fashion model I would get access to a lot more nifty duds and make some money at the same time.

Of course...some of my bar and street buddies would probably poke fun, but that don't bother me too much. I'd just bust a bottle over their heads if they took it too far.

You plonker Chongo, you've got to be able to walk upright and smile at the same time to be a model.
