No...The pictures aren't. If nobody critiques them, then how long do they waste their time and money and energy at something that's never gonna pan out. Just because I can pick up a baseball bat and take a swing, does not make me a professional baseball player. Real baseball players have been critiqued their whole lives, and in the end that critique was positive enough for them to finally make it to the big leagues. The baseball players that sucked? They been critiqued a long time ago...Found to have sucked and never even made the junior high baseball team...So, either they cut their losses and do something else or practice alot and see if they can make the next years squad...But it doesn't take years for them to figure out if they have the right stuff...Or at least some inclining that they have the right stuff. By being honest and making honest critiques about models, at least the "models" can see how many positive statements vs negative statements they get, as time goes on, to figure out how far they may one day go. But just having a photoshoot doesn't make a person a model....Yet...It seems like so many men and women out there think so. If I had a dime for every woman on M&space who did a photoshoot and then puts down "model" under occupation...I'd be a friggin' millionaire.
