You don't really have rights as a Suicide Girl on the site. You produce content for free with your own money and generate money for this site. You are on a contract as an indentured servant. Once you submit a set, the site owns it and you lose ownership. Doesn't this bother anyone? It certainly bothers me and I've decided I'm never doing a photo set.
Hasn't anyone wondered why it's the policy of this site to accept every applicant? It's because they expect you to make money for them. It's a terrible capitalist venture. You are not important here. Maybe the mission at first was a good one, but it's not anymore.
In 2005, around 40 models left this site alleging that the president, Sean Suhl, was verbally abusive and an active misogynist. Being a woman does not make you a feminist. Just because two women own this site that doesn't mean it celebrates "alternative pin-up." The members vote for the sets, and it has become more and more homogenized and less of a fringe society over the years. The truly alternative pin-ups on this site are now being chased out and having almost no chance to ever become pink. How can you compete with a blonde-haired blue-eyed tan perfection? That is now the norm here.
This site claims to give you a place as an outsider. But that is not true. It's just another bullshit social media scam. Everyone is being used. I'm glad I finally opened my eyes. Yesterday on a set of the day on Instagram a bunch of people including several SuicideGirls finally said something about it and we were censored. Censorship shouldn't ever have a place in a community like this! But apparently SuicideGirls thinks it does.
