SUICIDE GIRLS: they bother me.
I'm all for quote/unquote 'metal chicks' and 'tattooed venuses' and what have you. And I know a lot of cool guys (and a few cool girls) that really love them for their ideals on acceptance, deviation from the norm, and their pursuit to redefine the terms of beauty.
Personally.
I think it's bullshit.
'Redefining the terms of beauty' I'm not sure if that's the site's mantra, or if it's just the universally contrived bullshit that fans like to satiate themselves with, either way, it's totally bogus. In what way would any of these women not be seen as beautiful even if judging by societal norms?
Small noses, big eyes, heavy make-up, thin, large breasts, large hips, white.
Face it kids, it's practically a cosmo meets hot topic meets hustler.The fact so many people lie to themselves thinking it's edgy and fresh and sexy when it's just a regurgitation of the same old shit that I've been seeing for the past 80-something years bothers me.
Don't get me wrong, I love pin ups. They're great. Beauty is great. I'm a very retinal person. Blah blah blah. But man, who are you kidding? Suicide girls is like every other softcore site on the web.
Just..... more ink.

I totally love it when something supposedly 'alt' digitally manipulates the bodies of women just to conform to a specific and rather narrow-minded standard. And I love how their wiki statement says "the purpose of the site is to give women control over how their sexuality is depicted"
....
...
...Can I be the first to call bullshit? Doesn't look like it from here.
Bad photoshop job anyways. now that's just lazy.
