Yea, guys are pretty much pigs and the bill is finally due, right?
I used to get crap all the time from other photographers because all the models would go on about what a good guy I was, and how I made them feel safe. At photographer get togethers guys would give me endless crap for being such a "gentleman". In this forum right here people would take cuts at me and make fun of me for always being in the "friend zone". I'm like, dude's, that's where I want to be - I'm not a freaking pig - or a dog who runs around humping every leg he sees, I'm a man who can control impulses and I'm happily married to the best girl.
That's why, years after I work with a girl - she's still my friend. My ex-models show up on Christmas day when they are in town visiting family. When my wife had cancer, the models I used to work with put together a fund raiser for her and raised 10 grand in two weeks, because they love us - because I always made them feel safe whether they were in a dress, lingerie, or they were buck naked.
I'm not a saint, and I'm straight as an arrow - and yes, some of those women I was attracted too, but integrity counts above all, in my book, and I can control myself because I'm a freaking man, not an animal.
ALL men CAN control themselves - and would, if we had not developed a culture where we backslap and give too many kudo's and "attaboys" to those who don't.
I'm no kooky SJW, or PC loon, but I do say it's about time this crap gets called out. Men need to start acting like men instead of apes, pigs, and dogs.
