You should tell your son what you do and let him know that women can be strong and confident and should be treated with respect, just my point of view but anyways I'm sure you'll turn out great especially under sunshine's wing! She is so awesome at what she does ^^

@almost_missed It's actually not my son specifically that I'm worried about.  He knows what I do, and understands and appreciates it.  I'm more worried about parents of kids at his school and such.  I would hate to have someone judge him, or try to stop him from being friends with their kid, because they are judging me.  Or when he becomes a teenager, and inevitably one of his friends finds naked pics of me and gives him a hard time... anyway, I'm not closing the door, just taking my time weighing all the options.  I appreciate your comment!

I can not say that had I ever found a pic of a relative nude online it wouldnt be awkward, North America in particular still heavily sexualizes nudity. That being said any awkwardness would ware off in time especialy when the nudity is artistic and not flat out pornography! As for the social impact on your sons life I can only say that one of the best things my parents did for me was to not coddle me. I learned that as wrong as it is, not everyone was going to like nor understand me, this allowed me to flourish in life because when I set out on my own into the world I was not being cast from a safe fantasy world into reality, I was already there. If your son knows what you do and supports you, then to hold back only suggests thats its ok to stiffle who you are out of fear of what others may think, and that in my mind is more damage than a couple highschool or university kids could ever do.

Hey @abjester thanks for your input!  I'm very torn, part of me wants to just do it.  Who cares what anyone else thinks right?  But I also feel like it's an irreversible  decision that you can't take back once you've done it.  Kind of like a tattoo, I like to give myself to weigh all my options.  And honestly, being a model has never been my goal.  I like doing it, and even though I would love to have the Suicide Girl title, I don't know that I have enough time and tech savvy to get the amount of followers that I would need to actually go pink.  It seems like you really need to be able to promote yourself if you want to go pink... I'm just not sure I have the energy for that.  BUT like I said,  a big part of me still wants to.  And I still might!  I'm definitely not closing the door, just taking time to think it over.  
abjester:
Absolutely,  never rush life altering decisions,  I commend you on that choice! My views are simply to answer the question by itself and then tackle the issues... i.e. if no negative outcomes existed would you want to model? If the answer is yes then the choice to make is NOT should I or shouldn't I but rather how do I! How do I proceed and lessen the negative blow? Perhaps you discuss it at length with your son first, perhaps you wait a few years until your both more prepared to handle the outcomes, perhaps you simply dive in and cross bridges as they appear!?! As for followers that is easy, your obviously a stunning sight so your only task would be to be genuine with the people you talk to, they will be your net and can reach so far into the community, plus having a great photographer who can capture who you are in the way that will best capture our attention. You can go pink if that is the choice you make so do not fear that part of the future!

Aw @abjester  I love your sweet words of encouragement!  I really do appreciate being able to hash this out with people, so thanks for weighing in!

Any time, I enjoy being able to help, even if you disagree with my views at least you can see other ways of approaching the situation and maybe it helps tweak your own ideas. If you ever need new eyes on a subject just drop a post on my page, pm me, or blog about it and I will be here!
