How have/are the attitudes toward nude/topless photography changing?

One model on here features in next years calendar and she’s mid-20s and stunning.

Though the calendar images themselves are only so-so. There’s far better in her portfolio.

I've worked with at least 4 models who've done the competition.  Never heard anything negative.

Found the thread btw. Interesting read.

I got sin binned for being off topic while not being off topic? Jokes.

Any fuck it, I’m bored, hissy fit incoming. Laters xx

Have attitudes towards nude photography changed?

I don’t think so.

Have attitudes changed towards where you can display sexualised imagery?

Definitely.

‘Tits on the wall of the mechanics’ garage’ seems very odd in a world where people of all genders and sexualities are mechanics.

Coming back to this, one thing I've definitely noticed is there's less models willing to do topless or nude now. I've lost countless man hours trying to find models for a Concealed Nude shoot and the few that are out there don't want to shoot (or I assume that as I get no reply.)

And if you want to shoot Concealed Topless or Concealed Nude as I often to, which I think makes for a more interesting image ("what isn't there vs. what is there") it's actually very hard to find a model that does that, indeed it's not a tickle style so it's basically a no- man's land.

Infact I've been shocked at how little response my castings have had for Concealed.

Most models coming through now, even those that have the likes of Glamour ticked, all even explicitly state "No nudity" in their profile notes, whereas ten years ago there was a much more ready supply of models at Concealed and higher.

It's a shame that it's going out of fashion with the newer, younger models. I'm not sure what the driver behind that is.

I can see a future whereby topless and nude becomes a niche area amongst mature models by the time the decade is over.
