I do too much hardcore?

[IsobelWren]

I got THE weirdest email the other day. I read it over a few times and STILL have no idea what this guy was trying to say. I thinnnnk he might be saying that he thinks I do too much hardcore "smutty" modeling. Is that possible? What do you guys think he's trying to say? I would like to write back to him but I have NO idea what he's talking about.:dunno:

Sorry, the email's long.

Oh, and for reference, my site (which he's referring to) is IsobelWren.com

Isobel,
I wanted to write some thoughts to you since I found your site - but changed my mind during my subscription time.
Now you gave me another chance and I said "what the hell" (hopefully you're not a bearded site operator pretending to be you there... he, he)

I'm one of those straight guys who get obsessed with the expression of a model for months -and that was your case since I discovered a year ago your sets on Pantyhoseplease.com - your best presentation so far IMHO.
I searched site after site for more of your picts. After much waste of hope I found you again on a site with Isobel name and it occurred to me that it might be your real name and not the usual fake ones that make useless googling a person.
From there it was easy to find your site.
The site - what can I say, you have your strategy to advance your cause and I cannot discuss that- was far from what I expected in the resolution of the picts (I am subscribing to everything serious erotic modeling, so the reference is met-art), quality of the posing experience and deviation from the image you previously embodied in my mind.
I am not into BDSM or web cam interaction - sorry - just a great lover of photographic female expression.
Erotic art is the paramount of it in my view.
I cannot say that I didn't find that on your site, but the best of it I had already found in your previous sets that - I guess- made you famous. Very little of your persona you had already established on pantyhoseplease sets was still present on your site sets - you changed your photographer and started experimenting with new trends... Not bad, I read your bio and I understood that it's a new direction in your life you want to dabble with- so I respect that. But that is what demobilized me from writing to you.

Now hear this... You are an amazing personality - sophisticated, educated -and it transpires in your posing style! You have a great personal touch that make you so erotic even (or mostly!) when you're totally dressed.

Don't get wasted in the smellier corridors of "erotic experiments" that will only demean your personality and touch -extremely valuable assets for a model. You'll end up posing for the big network of smut peddlers that make so "grotesque" the US erotic modeling now -with all it's redundancy it already hit bottom and has surfers desperately seeking now femmjoy, nubiles and everything Eastern European (great quality and clean erotic obsession).
Most site operators in the US are opaque to any critique, always pushing the "customer demand" upfront as for the cause of their choices. But they cultivate the customer who wants girls fumbling with their hand in their ass (my definitive turn-off), they are the peddlers of theatrical erotic poses that make the casual Joe skip sites like Earl Miller (what a "personality"! Imagine his sets 50 years from now, they will look as stupid as the 19th century erotic photography, because of his preciosity in handling fake poses).

Don't waste yourself in this trip - your education and sophistication make you too precious. In your place I would cultivate the erotic touch of your expression - you have some subtle nuances that drive the attention of the viewer like a magnet - find a good photographer to recognize and exploit them.
I can imagine that submitting to the perceived public taste now could bring you a buck...
But think that you might have met a great photographer/filmmaker and instead of what you're doing now you could get really drawn into the real art of posing or even acting - you might not believe it, but you are made for it!
Take my word for it.

Best Regards

:wtf:

Umm, hmm...I think two things about this.

First, I think he is saying that he is a big fan of "erotic art" and not hardcore, dirty pornography. I don't understand why he thinks that matters to you, but he felt the need to tell you for some psychotic reason. To me, he is trying to relay some sort of message that you "shouldn't do hardcore" and stick to taking erotic photographs. Maybe some sort of unrealistic, fan-crush hopes that he can "reach" you in some emotional way...I don't know. :dunno:

Second, I think he is a psycho. I would just respond with "COOL BEANS!!!" or something really stupid like that and then forget about it.

roflol, "Hey thanks dude!" and just ignore any subsequent emails. That would be hilarious.

Just ignore him Isobel, I'm sure alot of nude models and porn stars get those kinds of emails saying they do too much of something or they don't do much of something else or what ever and even make suggestions on what they should do. Again just ignore that guy and anyone else that may send you those types of emails suggesting what you should and shouldn't do.

the guy seems like he is trying really hard to sound intelligent and sophisticated, but his message is badly phrased and full of grammar errors. The abbreviation "picts" for pictures is not a common usage. It seems like English is not his first language.

I think Chef pretty much summed it up.

I can appreciate art, I can appreciate erotic art, and I can appreciate non-artistic eroticism aka. hardcore pornography. They represent different levels. I don't really understand how someone can claim to be in favor of erotic art, but not hardcore. the aim is still erotic, and so it's no less sexually stimulating than the former. It seems to be a weird double standard in our society that many people have and I believe it stems from repression and body image issues.

seeing a fully clothed person acting and/or exhibiting sexuality is usually understood to be sexually gratifying and to the general public that is Ok. but seeing a nude, or even moreso someone engaging in a sexual act, is considered to be taboo or perverted, but it equals the exact same thing. it makes no sense.

 

[Artimus]

I think like many a dedicated fan he has put you on a pedestal.

 

[bodie54]

What he's saying is that judgment of any system, or a priori relationship or phenomenon exists in an irrational, or metaphysical, or at least epistemological contradiction to an abstract empirical concept such as being, or to be, or to occur in the thing itself, or of the thing itself.

I'm really not sure how any of you could have missed that?? :dunno:

 

[Becks...poamr]

I think he has waaaaaaaaaaaay too much time on his hands.

 

[BlueBalls]

E-mail him back telling him your taking his advice and your not doing *whatever* anymore and you would really like to meet him for a one on one chat, giving him a whole list of things about ho he's such a nice guy for looking out for you and he's the guy you really want to settle down with and leave this life for but before you can meet him and get married you need his bank and credit card details because you have just inherited a large sum of money and need to use a someone elses bank account for tax purposes.

 

[Torre82]

I think you should look up the email, find out where he lives and go rape the softcore right out of him. After he cums the third time and nutting becomes too painful, stand up off his dick.. smack it really hard and say "Well THAT was boring". Walk briskly outside and drive away.

 

[whatshisname]

It sounds like he's trying to give you advice, but it's misdirected advice because he really doesn't understand where you're coming from. (It might be presumptuous for me to assume that I understand you, but I think it's safe to say that I know you a lot better than he does.) He doesn't seem to understand that the "hardcore" stuff (BDSM, fucking machines, webcam interaction, and I can't think of anything else on your site that could be classified that way) is part of your personality too and that you do it not just as a career move but because you're personally interested in it and enjoy it. (FYI I wouldn't regard that stuff as hardcore now, but I used to, so I understand his terminology.) I've watched some of your BDSM and FuckingMachines videos from kink.com (some even legally), and it's obvious that you're into that stuff. (Really, who could possibly stand to do it unless they're at least a little bit into it.)

And I see no evidence at all that you are abandoning the artistic stuff, as he seems to think you are. You're a diverse person. You contain multitudes, like all of us.

When I first ran across you on YouTube, the BDSM stuff that you talked about freaked me out a little. But I've learned to appreciate it as just something that makes you more interesting. A lot of it I still don't like very much, but who is going to like everything that someone does? And some of it (more all the time) I have learned to like. There are some things on your site I have no interest in at all (the Latex Ladies set? I just don't get it), but there are other things (well, most of it, really) that I absolutely adore. You take what you like, and you leave the rest.

I always go back to the blind men and the elephant. (It's a lot of fun comparing a beautiful 100-pound woman to an elephant.) I'm sure I'm still too blind to see the whole elephant, but I've experienced enough different sides of you to know that you're not like a snake or a tree or a fan. (I'm presuming you've heard the story.) He's found your leg (your metaphorical elephant leg, of course, although he's obviously interested in your literal human legs too), and he still thinks you're like a tree. Apparently he's upset by the fact that your ear is like a fan and your trunk is like a snake, and he thinks these must not be real parts of you because how could snakes or fans grow on a tree?
