Terry Richardson. undeniably, the man has talent, or else he wouldn’t have compiled a 14 month calendar for Vogue. however, i still seem to run he word ‘but’ through my mind regarding thoughts of him..
lots of buts.
but than lots of counter buts.
it seems i’m not the only one with ‘buts’, i found this stream of comments in regards to the calendar on decadent;
“I don’t see what this has to do with avant-garde photography”
“Sigh. I should’ve known when I saw who the photographer was that I’d find these trashy and tacky, and lo and behold, I did. What’s good about these? You can find the exact same kind of thing—but done better and with more class—in a Victoria’s Secret catelogue.”
“Not so vogue-ish, seems like some weird pin up calendar.”
hello, Surkin.
i have not yet been disappointed by a boy from the south of france.
… well, except maybe that one from last summer in Bondi, who was visiting Sydney. he actually thought that telling people his father was Busy P would work as a pick up. sorry sugar, i’m not fussed as my mum is Peaches.
Sensuality
Interestingly, the heart of eroticism lies in its universal nature. It is a forceful and enduring element in the lives of all women and men, of all ages, classes of society, all over the world. Especially in times of political, religious and economic unrest, the value of intimacy and dreamlike projections rises, and the endless variety of erotic pleasures, when viewed in the form created by great artists, represents an important part of the world’s sexual wisdom. In this perspective it could be argued that the creative power of man is deeply rooted in the fundamental act of human creation itself.
However, as commercial evolution has broken down most boundaries of what is tasteful, sex has started to look like a mere commodity, a somewhat cold and impersonal lover. Particularly in the modern language of marketing, the art of seduction has turned into an almost pornographic performance with a temptress whose only virtue is to charge us for her services.
In a time when “the forbidden act” seems to have lost its mysterious and profound meaning, we long for a new encounter with our old flame:Sensuality.
Perhaps by stimulating our passion and intellect she could give us another kind of thrill?

Not Your Exotic, Not your Erotic
by: Suheir Hammad
Don’t wanna be you’re exotic like some dark, fragile colorful bird, imprisoned, caged in a land foreign to the stretch of her wings
Don’t wanna be your exotic
Women everywhere
Look
Just
Like
Me
Some taller, darker, nicer then me but like me just the same.
Women everywhere carry my nose on their faces, my name on their sprits
Don’t seduce your self with my otherness!
My hair wasn’t put on top my head to incite you into some mysterious black voodoo, the beat of my lashes against each other aint some dark desert beat,
It’s just a blink,
Get over it!
Don’t build around me your fetish, fantasy, your lustful profanities to cage me in, clip my wings.
Don’t wanna be your exotic
your loving of my beauty ain’t more than
funky fornication plain pink perversion
in fact nasty necrophilia
cause my beauty is dead to you
I am dead to you.
Not your
harem girl geisha doll banana picker
pom pom girl pum pum shorts coffee maker
town whore belly dancer private dancer
la malinche venus hottentot laundry girl
your immaculate vessel emasculating princess
don’t wanna be
Not your erotic
Not you’re exotic
my love. out now on shelves worthy of hosting such a publication.
