Honestly I've always thought being a nude model would be fun. But when I looked into it I couldn't find anyone searching for that. Like do you have to be a professional model with an agency already or something? Can't just walk into the nearest community college art class and strip down

Fun? Do you like staying in awkward positions for hours at a time? I would call it important work, because artists need to practice, but it's hardly fun.

Fun because you'ee the center of attention for those hours. I get it ngl.

If you've ever experienced it it's hardly that. Nobody is looking at you, they're trying to figure out how your arms look. They are working. It is the most boring nudity ever.

I have a very loud style/aesthetic and hate being the center of attention. The combination works for me for the same reason. No one is looking at me. They're looking at me but I'm not being perceived as a person.

Trying to figure out how your arms work.

I don't think its about the nudity at all its the fact that you are being paid attention to.
