the title is in my top 5 best titles ever... i've been playing with this idea for a while now and if it's up to me there will be more photos utilizing this sentence. it's tha best maybe a series??
anyway, this pic... well, just look at it, what do you think? statement? attitude?
i think i found the best possible model to present what i wanted, it's my friend KPR (~kprobbins) and it was his birthday this saturday. i got him a blanket and couch pillow from IKEA, and this food turner utencil thing for hamburgers, a scented candle and 4 glasses, also from IKEA. anyways, i think it's very cool that he wanted to do this photo for me.
after reading commentary, I think the interpretation of "soft, sensual lover" juxtaposed with the crude male appearance is pedestrian at best.
Everything about this screams "humiliation"... even the artist "thinks it's very cool that he wanted to do this photo", what does that say? Why would he _FUCK_ like a girl (for me the term FUCK negates the aforementioned interpretation as a simple contradiction in terms)? Perhaps the response to peoples' interpretations that girls are sensual or submissive is a decent one because that gender convention is a boring, stereotypical one.
The fact is, the initial response is "throws like a girl" is a proper one, and that's what's being portrayed in hard terms. A hefty man like this, probably is out of breath fast, can barely support his own weight and would likely make for a poor lover... not to mention how far is belly extends past his waist line. His penis probably retracts into his lower abdomen too. He can't FUCK like a man because he's practically two of them and only has the musculature (and probably penis size) for just one of them.
I appreciate the photos ability to make people ruminate over their own thought processes and cleverly reveal them... but a good word for it is Tragic. Art needn't humiliate to break with social convention... well at least not when the submitting artist has no real concept or burden for such an expense.
And how do girls "fuck", baby? With a purpose and like they know what they're going after?
What's with the back story anyway? Almost like you're justifying a man's very public humiliation with all the things a stinky, fat, fucking like a girl guy could use from Ikea... (food turner for his hamburgers because obviously he eats TONS!, a scented candle because obviously pigs live in and smell like shit, 4 glasses so he can support his intake of liquid during just one of his squares a day, and of course a blanket and pillow for the couch he obviously spends all his free time on).
Yeah, I don't know... something offensive about all that, but I'm glad you found the best possible model to present what YOU wanted. What a friend!
Anyway, just my thoughts, they're mostly just comic relief; don't take any of it too seriously.
