Would you allow yr mate to pose nude for a famous photographer?
 

Inspired by stankerous/Terry Richardson/photography thread.

This is assuming all conditions for platonicity (just made that word up) would be met.


I would approve.

yes

I don't see why not.

I wouldn't mate with somebody who had to have me "allow" them to pose nude for anybody. Submission can be cool in small doses, but that level of needing permission to live would be insane.

absolutely

if terry richardson took a picture of my naked boyfriend i would have it blown up to poster size and hang it on the wall.

Terry Richardson is cool in my book. He'd probably want to photograph both of us anyway.

i think it'd be the bestest thing in the whole wide world.

the absurdity of floso posing naked is going to make me wake up the house with cackling.

Dead-Air rules.

Yes, if that's what they wanted to do.

This

I'd not only allow it, I'd insist on it

absolutely not.

I don't own her and I have no desire to control her.
Plus, she's beautiful.

Are you sure? Not even if that was me?

my mate as in my partner or my mate as in a friend?

my partner? I don't think he'd want to do that, but sure, if he wanted.
my friends? whatever?

terry is gross

only if the RZA was there

swa(y) looks like Terry Richardson a bit.

yes, just with more needle in the ha(y).

exactly.

my body, my choice fuck ass.

Would I really have any say over it? If they wanted to do it, why would I stop them?

depends on if/how much she would get paid

No, but I'd take the pictures myself.

I assume most who said yes...... aren't married.

they're mostly just delusional . this is a sonic youth board

repped

there would also have to be food there she could steal and bring home

At least three of us are that I know of. Most of the rest I know are in long term commitments. I'm actually surprised anybody would have trouble with this. I wouldn't expect most people to be cool with their significant other being a stripper, but my god, posing for art photos? This is the 21st Century, isn't it?

have you seen what terry does with his female models? not saying this would happen, as the question/thread is just talking about photos...

No, I haven't actually, but the original topic question made clear that things would stay platonic.

Whatever, if you have a mate who wouldn't stay platonic, and you would want him or her to, then I'd say get the inevitable over with.

For those of you who said no - what is your reasoning?

When I asked my boyfriend he replied with "would you let me fuck a famous pornstar?" :rolleyes:

I didn't feel like arguing with him, though. So I basically left it at that. Many of the other people I have asked said that they would be okay with it.

there is no reasoning in this, it's pure egotism, related to the idea of somehow owning the nudity of the person you gave your life to. It's neither good or bad. However, me thinking this would not prevent her from doing it, if she wanted to do it. which she would never ever do anyway. hahahahahahahaha

somewhat irrational repsonse!!!

You might be surprised. I honestly thought my wife was sexually conservative a couple short years ago. People change and even when they don't they can be full of big surprises you never knew were there.

mmm my wife isn't sexually conservative at all ( nor is she totally CRAZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY).
I just know she would not like to do this kind of things.
Fact is she wouldn't pose naked for ME anyway.

I certainly wasn't implying anything about your wife. Just that what we are totally sure about other humans is sometimes confounded by things we never expected. We even surprise ourselves sometimes.

no worries dude, i didn't think you implied anything uncool. I'm just sayin'. I know my wife. I can see everybody's point here. No problem.

food fight incoming

Yes.

They're only pictures, after all.

Sure, and I know my wife, and she'd be all over being in the photos of a real artist doing something provocative. But in another year, I don't know if she would or not. I used to think I could see that far ahead, but I've been proven wrong too many times.
