Dear Blog,
Suicidegirls has prided itself to promoting real beauty. SG has claimed time and time agian to pride itself on the pormotion of alternative beauty. Their mission statement is full of defiance of the media's standardized form of beauty that encourages women to starve themselves so that they can be a size zero.
That ideology was always SG's greatest strength not just philosopically but financially. How many nudie sites are there on the internet that catter to a ridiculously specific niche or fetish within the horny man demographic just to be competitive. What makes Suicidegirls.com such a great nudie site is that if fills the "needs" of many different nudie niches. If you like hardcore goth chicks they got it, if your into naked nerds they got it complete with a section for cosplay sets, if you like women with super big boobs they got you covered. if you little itty bitty titties they got those too. Curvy, not Cury patiet, statueque Blonde, redhead, asian, black, white, latina, Escimo, Native American, inne vagina, outtie vagina SG had at least a little of everything. There was no one standard of beauty that SG promoted over any other. Sadly I think this is begining to change.
For at least a few months now I have noticed A great number of the beatiful Curvy women either leaving the site or needlessly triming down until all their beautiful curves are gone and they begin to resemble the mainstream "super" modles that SG was supposedly created to couter agianst.
I won't name names because many of these strong, independate and once beautiful I respect, and at the end of the day have the right to do whatever they wish to their own bodies. Additionally I'd propably also get in trouble with the site and have everyone on the site both staff and member lashing out at me.
I sense that some of the Higher ups at SG MAY be pressuring the Curvy women it has in it's ranks to slim down. As many in the Big Boob Appreciation threads have noticed there have not been any curvy, busty, or big assed SG making the front page in a long time. In addition to this I've noticed some of the SG staff members who are also SGs ridding themselves of there beautiful curves even though they were clearly at a healthy body weight before.
And to put the cherry on top of this exposed rib cage sunday The very beautiful Hopeful Rielee has left the site. (I was trying to link her page but it just sends me back to the homepage. Her profile must already be gone.) She was a Curvy Busty Beautiful women till the last. I don't actually know why she left but I suspect it may have to do with her having been a Hopefull since the summer of 2010.
I fear SG is forgeting the philosphy that made it Great to begin with. If they are going through with this they chose a bad time to jump onto the boney stick figure bandwagon. Mainstream magazine have already begun photoshoping "Super" models to make them look bigger. (which is not to say they're making them look fat just giving them the appearence of being resonably well nurised) Ultimately ridding the site of more Curvy women would not only be bad philosphically but it would be bad financially. More and more "Fashion shows" are requiring a minimum weight to model at said shows. and If that Sociology class taught me anything it's that culture has a very stong influence on what is percieved to be beautiful or sexual by the individuals of that culture.
I implore all SG staff and even regular SG members to do everything in their power to support Curvy Hopefuls and SGs. Give the MR sets of these beautiful women some extra love. Let them know they don't need to change themselves to be approved or considered drop dead gorgeous.
Sincerely Yours,

rhody:
Nicely put.
chloe:
I doubt I'll do another set for SG. But I'm sure I'll do a few more things for Zivity! Probably a self-shot set soon.
