Indeed. I have two relatives who work for the modeling industry, neither of whom work for any huge labels. They both work for Hanes. But their department gets to see the "rough drafts" of model shoots for up-coming add campaignes. And the pictures they've sent are hideous, at least in regards to the industry standards of beauty. They hack off about two kids worth of extra leg fat, skin blemishes, breat shadows or skin creases, etc. The modeling industry is not what it appears to be. But, the runway is another matter. Those people on the runway don't look like that all the time, but if you want to earn the big money, you look like that without all the computer aided drafting and high maintenance.

The girl at the end is hot! That first one is U-G-L-Y! She UGLY!

I agree, all women should get that done to them. I hope you realise your dream, FeceMan.

hmm... reminds me how i felt when i saw Angelina Jolie in HD w/out her makeup and realized she had as many freckles as lindsay lonhan...

Beauty is something funny. It can be totally shaped, created in a studio. There is absolutely no merit associated to it. You just create it ! Like in those plastic surgery tv shows... the swan, extreme makeover, etc... still it can affect people so much.

Amazing clip.

more proof that women are objects.

plastic whorez..

so, thats your whole theme then? the "i cant get laid because im about
as attractive as a stomach pump, so all women are 'whorez' " theme?

is this whob again?
dont answer that

reggie_jax
the funny part is you putting some sort of value into "gettin laid," all i gotta do is jingle my pockets and whorez come out of the woodwork. wordisbond.

Freckles aren't bad, though I don't particularly like Jolie whether she is made up or not. I never could understand the whole "she is the most beautiful women on the planet."

But fascinating clip, so much work, essentially creating an entirely new image, because the girl is almost unrecognisable by the end.

And that is why I don't use models as a benchmark for hotness. There are plenty of hot chicks that I see everyday. And they're real! eek!

look at this simple-minded shit.. "U KANT GET LAID.." as if pussy is the yardstick to humanity..

what's so hard to get.. i place no value in a whore wanting to spend her time with me.. i prefer the tought of violating her to the notion of us having a mutually beneficial relationship..

you go ahead and pander to the money hungry bitchez.. i want no part of it. like i said.. bitchez hear money jingling in ur pockets and of course they want some.. only a sucker would mistake this for a reason to boost his self esteem..

So...you don't have sex with anybody? That's so sad. Have some, it's fun.

i never said i dont have sex.. i just don't value whorez as anything more than what they are - objects of effection.

So, you like whores, but you don't have sex with them? OK, I get it now...You just have sex with ugly girls, that's cool. They need love, too. I'm just grateful that you do it to them, so guys like me don't have to. I like fly girls, yo.

I'm trying to remember what idiom it is that states it's better to work harder now than have to work harder later, but the only one that keeps coming to mind is the "A bird in the hand..." one.

In many instances, this is what agencies do. It is more cost-effective to use models who do not need a lot of "work," then it is to pay for production and post-production work.

I hate fat girls who say "beauty is on the inside" then go off and talk shit about how every girl prettier then her is a whore.

My opinion is that some girls have looks, some have good personalities, and then there are those gems that have both. Those are the ones that I go for.

Hmmm - psychologically concerning. And sad. Mainly sad.



Unless you are Whob, in which case you are irredeemably pitiful.



Indeed, and such girls do exist. It seems somewhat concerning that ideals of beauty in this day and age can so often be based upon technological wizardry - even more so when images used to advertise a cosmetics (eg - you'll look like this if you use our product) are no indicative of reality.

Reminds me of a recent study done by Choice Magazine (the consumer watchdog magazine in Australia) - where they looked at breads. Wholemeal is a type of flour - yet many breads instead of using actual wholemeal flour (which is best) refine the wholemeal down so it is white flour, and that add wholemeal back to it. Madness.

But is is a good thing Dove did their whole "natural" beauty campaign, while their is probably something cynical behind it it is still good when a cooperation makes a step in the right direction.

Oh waily, waily, waily. There I go again with some of my exceedingly rare grammatical errors, causing terrible trauma to our good friend FeceMan.

Oh, a thousand humble pardons oh great and terrible Grammar Nazi! I am not worthy, but I will take your most benevolent teachings on board, so I my writings won't offend you divine eyes in future!

And out of appreciation for your most insightful lessons I'll assume you were intending some form of humor by spelling "all" awl and "know" no -despite the fact I don't tend to write sentences like that. But in the spirit of annoying you I think I'll continue to overuse "your" - yes, because I don't want you to feel you lack purpose if I never make grammatical errors again. You have to retain your purpose - I mean its not like there are other members whose crimes against the English language are far greater then my own on these forums.

*grovel, scrape, whimper*

Well, at least you realize it.

You seem to be making these errors more frequently as of late, so I figured that I would give you a helping nudge in the right direction.

Oh, those exist too - but I thought we were talking about beauty, and those girls don't have inner or outer beauty. Hot stuck-up girls have the outer, "sweet spirits" have the inner, and then there's those that approach perfection that have both.

If your (hahahaha), ok , ok, if you are wanting your name to be last in as many threads as possible wouldn't it make sense to go to the forums with very low member activity (such as the philosophy forum, or some of the movie forums, etc) and post there? That way you'd be keeping dying forums alive and getting your name down.

The rational answer is you wouldn't, nobody would (though the philosophy forum isn't so bad.) Unless one was playing an imaginary game of "win KMC", which sounds like an undernourished version of "win the Internet." Though people usually win the Internet after doing a great deed of awesome posting, as opposed to just "being the last post in a thread."



Of course I did, though I was hoping FeceMan would pick up on it first - but since I like you as well I wont begrudge you mentioning it.

Funny, it is usually the opposite - the individual (let us say you) who claims they have no emotional connection to the person they sleep with is usually considered hedonistic when compared to someone who actually dedicates both emotional and intellectual side of a sexual relationship...

Oops silly. It is unlikely you have either dedicated time to a relationship or been a part of one.

I'm so pleased that you mentioned that. I was just about to ponder how it is actually said; in my mind, I'm saying it 'boo-cack-ee', is this right?

xmarksthespot
Although I can be wrong (very rarely of course) I believe the Japanese is actually pronounced boo-kah-kay with a slightly longer interval between the boo and kah.

I see, well, it would have been funny. I pictured him talking to one of the Simpsons and someone in the cells screaming and he saying "Stop saying bukkake in there" implying that there is a sort of orgy (most likely involuntarily on the part of the receiver) going on....hmm, or something completely different.
