It's not like they were forced into working in a maid cafe as a lest recourse.

It's like being a model. People are going to see you in few/no clothes. People are going to be invasive and forward and make sexual comments. That's part of the job. You gave up your right to privacy when you signed a contract for a job based around your physical appearance. Models know this, and if they don't like it, they shouldn't have become models.

I would agree if it wasn't such a niche, but it is. You opt into working in a maid cafe. As part of that, you give up certain rights and need to deal with being treated a certain way. It's only a lack of choice in the same way other jobs are a lack of choice. Programmers want to write Lisp, not JavaScript, but they don't get to decide.

There are jobs where your argument makes sense, like prostitution or drug dealing, but the people who work in a maid cafe chose to be there. They want to be there, and if they don't like it, quit. There are easier jobs to obtain, e.g. working in a regular cafe.

models' jobs are not 'to be a desirable object'. models showcase clothes and other fashion articles. they are selected based on their figure and facial attractiveness because those things lend themselves to the clothes.

No, I'm saying you waive certain rights when you take that sort of job.

Which is the same thing. Nobody cares how intelligent a model is, or how nice they are, or what their favorite food is. It's purely physical, even for innocent clothes modelling. That's fine, there's nothing wrong with being attractive and using it to your advantage just as there's nothing wrong with being intelligent and using it to your advantage. All the "beauty is on the inside" stuff is unscientific and ultimately destructive. Models know what they are and that's why they model. They also know (or should know) that they're giving up certain freedoms enjoyed by ordinary people.

I've watched every cycle of America's Next Top Model, so I know what I'm talking about.

No, I think they're paid to look attractive in the same way an object or animal might be attractive. You don't care about the person, you care about their appearance. You're not Katie Smith, a writer who loves dogs and enjoys walks on the beach, you're curvy model #583 showing off your body so people can see how good you and someone else's clothes look. You're a mannequin, except people like to see clothes on real humans because mannequins are creepy and boring. You are an object.

they are paid to model clothes, and the attractiveness helps them do this

I've known two models. One did lingerie modelling to earn some quick money. She did it for a few years and got a lot of money for it. She understood this. The other was slightly more intelligent, she modelled summer dresses for catalogs when I knew her and according to her Facebook she now models wedding dresses. She was very straightforward and she understood she had an attractive body type and had no problem turning it to her advantage. She wasn't a slut or anything, she just got that she was a good looking human being with a desirably shaped body.

Neither were professionals and I doubt they ever will be, but this shows the mindset it takes to model. If you want to be a creator of something or if you want your opinions and feelings to be valued, don't become a model. It's not that kind of job. If you are good looking and you know it, and you don't mind people caring about your body and even thinking lewd thoughts, great, become a model. Good for you, you're taking a natural advantage and making use of it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10221575
If you knew anything about modeling you would know that the girls you were talking about are not models. Victoria Secret (sluts) girls aren't models and neither are "Plus Sized" (Clothes are harder to make for fatasses) models, they are whores who are either too short or too fat to make it as a real model.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10221562
But imagine if a construction worker said, "I'm sick of heavy lifting. It hurts my feelings ;__;"
That's what being a model and complaining about lewdness is like. Even if you are modelling clothes, you are physically attractive and people are judging your physical attractiveness.

>>10221568
They're still real people, but I'm saying you and I don't care about that. Have you ever stopped to think, "Gee, I wonder who wrote this form code in Firefox. I bet they're a swell person!"
No you haven't, you don't care. They supplied a product and if you're interested you could look them up, but it's using the HTML forms that you care about.
Models don't produce anything. They can pose and have a limited degree of creativity, but their job is to stand there and look pretty or hot. If you're a feminist and hate the objectification of women, this is the last job I would recommend. I have some respect for models because they avoid all that bullshit. They say, "I was born attractive. I have a physically desirable body. I will turn that to my advantages."
Good for them.

>>10221572
Why do they keep their bodies thin? Oh, because that's physically attractive, the point of their job.
I'm not saying it isn't hard work, mind you. Modelling itself doesn't seem too difficult, but the outside stuff must be terrible. Not being able to eat or exercise how you want in your own free time must be awful, and I'm sure a lot of models end up with conditions like body dysmorphia because of all the pressure.

WRONG

Almost all clothing is made for slim figures because it's harder to design for fatter people because everyone stores fat differently but with thin bodies it's much more uniform.

Many models are also born models because they have a good metabolism while others must work at this but they don't do it because they want to be part of this work (Some because of the fame and some because they love the work) but in the long run as long as they aren't ana or mia it's much healthier for them to be thin.

>Modelling itself doesn't seem too difficult

You need to have a certain type of attitude to be a model it's not just walking around and taking pictures you are judged every day by and have minimal control over how you look.

Then we're agreeing, basically. It's a matter of taste, but slim bodies are attractive. If you have a slim body, you're model material.

>You need to have a certain type of attitude to be a model it's not just walking around and taking pictures you are judged every day by and have minimal control over how you look.

This is what I'm saying. People are going to judge you. People are going to treat you the same way they'd treat a 3D model in a piece of software. You can get along with people. You can be funny and charming. If you make it big, you may even make public appearances and do interviews. But as for modelling itself, your point is to be a model, just as gofers on a TV/film crew have to fetch coffee.
If you can't handle that, it's not the job for you. It's a specialized career, so you weren't forced into it by any means. Nobody is ever forced to be a programmer or a lumberjack. If you fall back on a natural talent or attribute (strength, attractiveness, intelligence) then that's your choice.
To go back to the original topic, this also applies to maid cafes. You know what you're signing up for. If there are no other jobs in the world, if the job market is so fucked up that the only opening within fifty miles is "maid cafe waitress" and you're starving, then it's still your own fault. Same if had been "human experiment test subject" or "prostitute" or "murder victim". It's like when people illegally accept below minimum wage. "B-But they had no choice!" is stupid. You chose to let your employer break the law and accept less than you're legally entitled to. If you do something dumb to keep a job, it's your own fault. If you sleep with your boss to get a promotion, two people are to blame, and one of them is you.

Strange as it might seem, I modeled in college to help pay bills. I'm a dude, btw. I had been in the industry for 5 years prior to quitting. I have no personality as a result.When I was at my skinniest, 63kg at 6'11'', I fainted frequently and suffered chronic pain.

I was molested as a child on three occasions by women. When I was 19, and 17, I was sexually assaulted by women I trusted.

It was a very tough industry to succeed in - it's essentially a pyramid. The money was bad in my tier. I had a good agent who protected me from the worst of it. But as a result of the pressure to fuck your industry daddies and hunger, I had a bit of a breakdown and tried to kill myself. Didn't make a good job of it.

As a result, I'm now a NEET with no skills, and have been for 2 years. I'm currently pulling home security for generous Yurobux.
