I am going to stab the next person who . . .

I am going to stab the next person who asks me whether someone who is [fill in ethnicity of choice here] can model for BlueBlood.com or who points out that there are people who have modeled for BlueBlood.com who are [fill in ethnicity of choice here] so shouldn't they be on there too. I might care what the color of someone's hair is, but why the fuck would I care what the heritage of their parents or the color of their skin is? I would never reject someone for the heritage of their parents or the color of their skin, but I wouldn't give them preferential treatment or affirmative action for it either. Have Gentlemen's Agreements seriously infiltrated "alt"? WTF?

My favorite word is Erascism.

ah damn haha I was just counting up the 50+1% Ukrainians in the country. If you ever have 4000+ models at one time, we'll have to talk about this dammit! j/k.

OEC

Well, some people think the whole Goth thing is about ethereally ghostly pale people.

Kinda hard to find an ethereally pale Aftican American, even an albino one.

But then again if you look at pics from the Batcave days there are some West Indies folks in the mix.

i knew a black goth. used to come to the club, but was a bit of a pretentious tosspot tbh.

he once turned up in corpse paint. it just did not look right as his natural colour just amplified the uneven finish on it. a bit of a guilty giggle i had there tbh

Au contraire, the contrast of white paint on black skin, especially ebony black, can be pretty fucking cool, or even creepy.

Hell, it's even traditional,

wow! those are fucking cool.

[Head Wreck]

agreed.

i dont think this chap had good friends. friends dont let friends try to do the crow

[Bikerpunk]

wow! those are fucking cool.

Agreed, and if I was black, I'd dread my hair and do that kind of thing.

You got to be mad as hell to be that outraged!!!
I understand it though.

From what I can tell about what you've shared in your post.....
You're color blind...

You just like to capture the moment, of whoever brings the inspiration...regardless of size, or race....

I think people of all nationalities are beautiful, and they all have their own unique things about them that makes them special.

Do you think you should add a message including protocol ...

Like when you ask for couples ... nude required, full nudity preferred... (whatever it was you said, I'm paraphrasing... hopefully something that simple can keep you from getting such bonehead statements)

I hate seeing you so stressed... I hate racial intolerance and ignorance.

You dont need to be black to have dreads. Fuck I'm white and I have dreads..even fucker i MAKE them.

[Bikerpunk]

My hair is too fine. By that I don't mean balding. Shit if I had that going on in addition to being chubby and ugly, I'd blow my head off.

I mean the hairs themselves are fine. They don't dread.

All hair can dread. But the ones I have and make are fake..so you dont even need hair really to have fun hair. I've even done bald people :^)

Actually, I've known several 'Goth's of Color' and... I wouldn't THINK it would be much harder to fit into a culture that openly revels in its whiteness than it would to be mainstream. One fellah was particularly fond of paining a white skull over his face for that, Voodoo vibe that was really fun. ^_^ There are Goth's of all types, its just the imagery we are used to are the scrawny pale ones.

[Head Wreck]

indeed.

nowt pale or scrawny about me anyhow (okay, maybe pale, i work nights and tend to sneeze if i get sun glare in the eyes)
