I'm doing an independent blog about this one because it doesn't really cover the 'How SG has changed my life' brief but it's something I want to share.
I first discovered Suicidegirls in 2006, a bf introduced me to it and it soon came what I wanted to be when I grow up (or at least legally old enough it take nudie pics) I became a instant fan and shared these
with anyone that will watch and look with me! In 2008 I applied to become a hopeful and shot 2 sets with SG Akumi. I got some fantastic feedback and met some great people through that process. However I also did come up against some negativity, and in my mind very unnecessary criticisms. For anyone wondering it was from this set.....
I had always loved this site for celebrating diversity and striving to change mainstreams ideals of beauty, so I was upset and confused by these comments that were a personal attack on my appearance, and for trying to have my voice I somehow was portrayed as the bully - I left SG.
That however is all water under the bridge. 5 years later I'm back.... more confidence, more driven and more tattoo'd :p I still hugely admire everything that @missy has done for alternative woman and all the Suicidegirls, hopefuls and member and I can't just turn my back on that. I want to be part of this..... for me I just can't not!
Thank you for reading
