The rise of Suicide Girls
Amy Roe looks at the rise of Suicide Girls in Portland's alt-weekly. "With an image more evocative of an indie record label than an adult entertainment company, Suicide Girls has become the code word for a new, sex-positive brand of cool. And within a certain stratum of 18- to 25-year-old women, being a SG commands considerable bragging rights. Suicide Girls doesn't do model searches or solicit participants--there's no need. In just 18 months it has become the club every hipster chick worth her ripped fishnets wants to join."
SG's is a quickly sinking ship. The models are treated nearly as poorly as those stupid enough to shell out any money for this site (which isn't even all it's cracked up to be, IMHO, and the opinions of oh so many). Members are jumping off the site to avoid being taken for a ride, and few people admire the level of corporateness which SG espouses. Also, I hardly think a constituency of 60% or so strippers constitutes "the girl you might see in a coffee shop" or the idea of the idols those same girls clamouring to join are seeking.
People are very fed up with being fed lines about what they are supposed to believe about a site so obviously disparate from whom they actually are, when the doors are closed.
"not an SG fan" is obviously a dyke.
the suicide girls is crap. i've met many of them and they're morons. i love portland and i love nudity but there's nothing cool about the sg's and their slobbering army.
Anti SC? Jelous? If you dont like it dont go there. I say good for SG and the women who are confident and comfortable with them selfs to be on it.
I like naked women.
i just want some pictures of jetta.... is that too much to ask?
I'm over the sickness ... there is a cure ... and it's gotta be suicidegirls, I think it's more than big, first with the current rise of punk music as the only vestile genre of music ... as even death metal has gone all media whore, and the major lables are gobbling up everything that farts or whisltes ... and lets face it music had defined every generation since the 80's ... and these girls are are like candy made from ambrosia and molded individually by the artist who lives in her head ... I don't claim to be a wise man ... but it takes a special kind of person to read Decarte watch the powerpuff girls and enjoy getting caught having sex in public ... and trust me there are enough tugs waiting by that that ship may leak but she'll not sink ... not on my watch ... and yes you are more than likely to meet a stripper at a coffee house, especially girls like these ... you know what they say about coffee ... maybe you should talk to the strippers not just stare at thier various holes and lumps ... it's cheeper ... and remember not everyones concerned with licking the masters hand ...
