Suicide Girls?

[NolaChick™ {Madam}]

I was wondering if any of the ladies here had any experience with the SG franchise? I really dug them when they first started out, and a few years ago I was even offered a place in the group. A photographer friend of mine informed me that their contracts are outrageous and they are pretty much unfair to models. Does anyone here know anything about them? I really thought that they were awesome until I heard all the negative rumors about their policies.

* By the way - I'm in no way implying that nudity is not artistic and is simply "porn". I think any sensible person can decipher between the two. Trust me, I'm an art lover.

I don't know if I would go so far as to call SG porn, but I see what you are saying.

I've heard nothing but horror stories about SG as well. It's very safe to say I'm not a fan :) If you wanna take your clothes off for a living, I'm sure there are lots of bigger companies that are a little kinder. It's a multi-billion dollar business. There's practically a billion adult magazine out there...hahaha. Although, I'm not sure why anyone on this particular site(PL) would even be considering that. Pinup and porn are two VERY different things. One has respect, gives respect and you walk away from the job with respect. And one is the opposite of what I just said, in MY opinion. Take a guess which one blows. However, I'm not here to judge, nor would I ever. I'm not that kinda person. I suppose my idea of "pinup" may be different from someone else's that may, in fact, be considering SG or Gods Girls. I'm a classic kinda guy I suppose. The golden age was the gorgeous age and the fab fifties was the maturing of a society I think. I understand some girls do what they feel they gotta do in order to atleast succeed in some way in this business, and a place such as SG where you merely sign all your rights away and they take care of the rest may seem sorta appealing at times when you're struggling etc. And um....yeah, that's why they make it so easy :) I'm a cameraman/graphics guy myself. Even I have been approached about shooting adult things. Video in my case but it's the same market. I turn every offer down and they think I am crazy because of the money involved. They think they can buy you :) But that kind of work would be something I would have attached to my name forever...they couldn't pay me enough to do that. In many cases, your name and word are all you have. Just use your heads and think in long term about your career ladies...you could end up saving your career. Anyways...I'm off my stump...hahaha. So in a nutshell, yeah SG f*ckin sucks.

The concept seems so great initially, totally contrary to what they did to your friend! But when you look into it a bit deeper its just tacky, pretend alternative!
I was so inspired by the idea a few years ago but once i looked into the site n saw a couple of videos etc I thought it all looked a bit standard and like I said, tacky.
Its a shame.

All I know about them is that they turned down my totaly awesome friend roxi because she was too heavy! Roxi had a bone structure to die for, her lips were perfect and she had loads of cool tatts and pierings to boot. so I dont know , i like what I see when i see them but im not sure about their ethics/politics

[Zombie Kitten Originals]

I would! ...hahaha, but maybe I am an old fart? I know a few guys that "collect" the SG photos for the sole purpose of ...well.... jerk off material.

I've heard the models were treated poorly!!! And I've never been impressed by the photography. The pictures come out looking raunchy most of the time. I'd stay away................Looks like we need to start something of our own but with more class right ladies? There are more than enough gorgeous girls on PL!
xoxoxoxo

[Knockout Nikki]

not a fan. they own your pictures for life, and for no money.
the franchise is making the money.

i only hear bad things.
also what happened to implied nudity?

they are showin all the goods now.

[spyder3778]

well said Miss T.

[Ava des Mortes]

I wouldn't model for SG as I've heard they're not a great place to work for and the girls are catty. I've heard very negative stuff about them.
