Steve Truitt (Stay Gold, Albuquerque, NM — but given how regularly he’s featured here I’m sure you know that by now!) has been slowly sculpting *Stitch* (this piece was posted fresh as well) into a scarified dreamgirl. Seriously, the number of gorgeous people, male and female, who are now choosing scarification as their dominant personal artform grows all the time… I love it!

Yeah, but little-boy-size is HOT, Sar.
thank you:)
!!
she’s super hot! that’s about all i can say…
Yes, skinny girls (especially this one) are most definitely hot.
But it doesn’t change the fact that they’re not everyone’s cup of tea, or the fact that curvy girls are sexy too.
Just thought I’d put my two cents in ^^
I like how it’s healing evenly. As for the Zia symbol tattoo… hooray New Mexico! Unfortunately probably the only thing I’ll miss about NM is the green chile.
Sar, the reason we see so many skinny girls is because they send pictures in! Shannon can’t post what he doesn’t receive. if you’re unhappy with what’s being posted, why not send photos in?
well, the reason i don’t send more photos in is because i can almost guarantee you they wouldn’t get onto ModBlog. yeah, i like helping out on BME, but it sort of sucks when you have several friends who have been on ModBlog umpteen times and the reason is they have a certain aesthetic.
and be honest, do you really want to look at a chubby girl?
she’es so sexy. yum
…do you really want to look at a chubby girl?
I’m quite sure there are plenty of folks who would be more than happy to.
I’m still trying to wrap my head around the idea that a size 6 is somehow considered “larger/curvier.”
I have that same bra. hahaha
its all sexy!
im hot and in the “larger/curvier” (larger than what? average size?) size 6-11 section of this audience. i would love to see more diverse stuff on here but people have many reasons not so send photos in…yah know….here are some of mine:
i could get my face tattooed on someone (which would frighten me, and i would be considering a restraining order)
i would get ripped up and torn apart for something as silly as wearing mismatched underwear, or the way i do my makeup, or my hair, or my bodysize
my tattoos would be critisised by fuckin strangers (likely negatively)
some people that i dont know would call me hot.
also possibly people might save my pictures and use them for…..well whofuckinknows
so yeah. not everyone wants there picture on the net, tho they want to see a variety of peeps.
i dont know where im goin with that. but girl:
it’s OK to wear your make up like that
it’s OK to have mismatched underwear
and…heres the big one….
it’s OK and even POSSIBLE to be thin without suffering from anorexia – it’s also OK to like that body type in a partner (that’s called person preference folks)
not that im a moral expert here, but COME ON, mismatched underwear? if that’s all you people have to complain about you must be laughing.
holy crap i spend too much time on here.
Here here Toser, well put! For a welcoming non judgemental, non denominational website there are a great deal of people on here who would do well to think before they type. Shannon doesn’t post stuff on here for people to poke holes in it, we’re sharing a lifestyle and an aesthetic here, not analysing other peoples’ lives through the medium of photography. Respect where it’s due, this woman has accented her own beauty with an aesthetic we should all be able to find something to admire about.
If you have a problem with a particular aspect of something posted on here do you *have* to grandstand your opinions in a manner that may upset others? I’m sure there are nicer ways to say what you mean than to pick out the flaws in each other.
As Bill and Ted put it ‘Be excellent to each other dudes!’
on the skinny/curvy debate:
http://www.nerve.com/nerveblog/siegephotoblog.aspx?id=47e8674#8674
i absolutely love this topic. i don’t think i actually have an opinion on it, though. i’ll pretty much just take any beauty that i can get. and this photo’s pretty goddamn beautiful.
ahh, Nerve.com. love it. its the only website i buy access to other than BMEzine.com
well, most of the girls who get onto modblog are super super super skinny, so if that’s the aesthetic we are sharing, i am scared.
i’m not ripping on other people’s bodies, i’m just a little miffed that all the BMEgirls are twigs.
“All” bmegirls are certainly not twigs- and it shouldn’t matter even if they WERE.
You should check out Vampyrixie’s (sp) page- she’s “curvier” and quite stunning to me. And she was front-page modblog recently.
Whats wrong with find a chick hot for bein skinny. she takes pride in herself for not bein lazy and it pays off. She doesnt sit around eatin out of boredom and depression and put on 50 pounds and bitch about thin women. As much time as she puts into bein in shape is probably the same amount of time lazy fat girls put into building their bodies up to get to the point most dont find them attractive. You chose to be fat or skinny. To each their own
uhh, i don’t “choose” to be a curvy woman, that’s just how i am. i eat healthy, work out, and take care of myself, but some people’s metabolisms and genes don’t allow them to go under a certain weight.
and yes, it should matter if most bmegirls are extremely thin–it makes it harder to send in photos. people on here are extremely judgmental. what i’m saying is that i would like to see some women (and men) who are more of an average weight on modblog more often, but that’s not going to happen until it feels more comfortable on here.
Stigmata, I’m not “lazy” and I do exercise (and eat well too!). I’m not skinny as these girls, thank God, ’cause it was the way I was born. I wasn’t born to be anorexic-looking. Some women are born to look thin and some are just born larger. It’s genes.
Anyways, I just was hoping that I could see normal sized gals on here. I was not saying that the size 6-11 is “curvier/larger” . I was saying that they’re more normal sized than the size 00-2 that we’re seeing. I wanted to not see as many ribs. I do know that some of these girls probably can have a whole pizza for one meal and not gain weight. I just wish that they’d pose so I don’t see their ribs poking out. Also, the problem with liking skinnier girls is the fact that it kinda sends out a pro-anorexia vibe.
Painted lady, you basically stated what I was trying to state the whole entire time (your last comment).
Awww thanks elfling!
Women ARE NOT fairly represented on ModBlog. Its a matter of shannons taste. Period, its his domain and his right to represent his tastes. It has absolutely nothing to do with the women themselves. Quite often the very small women featured hardly have any noticeable mods. Women are different than men for their curves and shape. Women represent fertility, life and beauty. Hips and breasts are amazing beautiful things. Sadly the “mod blog” women hardly have any of this. That doesnt make them less of a woman, but seeing a curve here and there would be nice to the real women that appreciate themselves. I think its un fair to say that all thin women are anorexic and its unfair to say that larger women are sloppy. You can very much be proud of yourself and into a fitness routine and still be a realistic size. In reality the majority of women are a 26% BMI. These women are not even near that I’m sure of it. They are quite clearly underweight and that is not assuming they have eating disorders thats just the fact. And to be fair, My body wasnt posted front page mod blog. There are quite often girls that have very minimal mods if any that are posted just for their being naked alone. (not that i dont appreciate gawking at a tittie or two) Its alot more about a certain body type thats appealing to shannon and less about what mods these women actually have. With exceptions of course because I think the beauty posted above is gorgeous and has great work. AGAIN its not skinny bashing. Its just a matter of taste that isnt being represented fairly. I love pudgies.
god must have really hated some people for making them born into a lifetime of fatness. why are bigger women so angry and quick to put blame on the thin ones that take care of themselves.
Its ignorant to assume that a “bigger woman” is sloppy or un-kept. Women are meant to give birth and life, having shape is fabulous and nothing to be ashamed of.
fat women are disgusting. they are unhappy as humans and blame everyone that dont think they look good and say thin girls look bad. in this picture she is damn skinny and looks amzing and she has given birth. she just did not let her body go to shit. she worked at gettin back in shape.
Not everyone has the same body type or genetics, and saying someone else is gross for being different is pathetic and uncalled for.
wow what a debate. i guess my opionated ass must say something. it is only human for people to be more attracted to skinny women. look at what is shown to us from the time we are lil tikes. i mean people LOVED marilyn monroe and she is considered a curvey/larger woman. stitch looks fucking great, she is shirt and tiny. it is a taste preferance yes. i am aware that people take thing into offence at times when it is unnecessary. and as a woman that is not in size 00 pants i still will agree that obese HUMANS are fucking lazy and something can be done about being overwieght…
Its a difference in opinion. how am i to look at a sloppy angry big girl…”curvy” as you fatties in denial refer to it and say wow. Not a chance…if a girl is sloppy on the outside as well as on the inside well thats on them and they can stay that way. Most big women are just disgusting and not just physically. manybe everyone is not born into a tiny frame but thats no excuse to not be healthy and stay in shape. there is no escuse to be fat other then being lazy. period
Just out of curiosity, how many people posting on here have had sex with this girl?
excuse me? what the fuck did you say? i am not disgusting. i have BREASTS and HIPS. yep.
i don’t think thin women are disgusting, i just think it’s unreasonable to assume that that is the universal ideal. sure, like thin women, but don’t call non-thin women disgusting, fatties, sloppy, lazy, and going to shit.
Well said painted lady.
Stigmata… I hate to say it, but I think you’re being very narrow-minded. Just because someone is curvy or large doesn’t automatically mean that they’re lazy or disgusting, or that they eat junk all the time and never exercise.
Assumptions are a bad thing to make. Assumptions are what make people think all gays are evil and have AIDS, and that all black people are uneducated and they’ll jack your car and rape your girl, and that visibly modified people are mentally ill. You know?
most fat people do have big hips and a big ass. That not a shocker. That like sayin tall people have longer legs. As for bein narrow minded believe what you will. I wont sit back and pretend a fat chick with an attitude is a good find.
well then, that’s very sad. because this “fat chick” (even though i am not fat, just, you know, not a twig) is an amazing person.
and what about fat men?
Fine. Shannon. I’m sending in a damn picture soon (within the month- I’m busy, so sue me). I’ll let you know who I am too.
Anyways, I’m not a “fattie”. I’m about “average” size. I wear a size 9 and I’m 20yrs old. I’m not “fat”. I’m just normal and would like to see some girls around my size.
Hahhaha, JOn I love you. And seriously all of you “plus” sized ladies, think about how silly you are making yoruself sound.
Yoru getting upset with your computer screen becuase most men dont like “curvy” women. If you care so much what men find attractive why not put in the effort to be more like that ideal? Or why not work on your personality to compensate for it.
What you should realy be focusing on is why do you need the approval of men to have a feeling of self-worth?
If you hate yourself becuase you are fat, then do something about it. Get some real exercize and start eating properly.
And for gods sake, drop the genetics cop-out.
_Stigmata_ and cere: Just admit that you hate women. You hate their bodies, and you would prefer a more manly aesthetic, and perhaps a big throbbing cock in your ass. There’s nothing wrong with that.
ok. first anubis, you are an asshole. yes. your comment was retarded.
i am just going to say that i think it’s stupid that you guys are fighting about “curvy” and “skinny” women. who fucking cares? this isn’t about the way someone looks. if you have a good piece of artwork, submit a picture, you will get on modblog! not that hard!
on another note. some people work to look a certain way. it’s not genetics. some work to stay thin and some don’t. some like curvy some don’t. in this case most like thin, i’m sorry. but that is no reason to come in here and start all kinds of stupid shit.
get over it!
#77 – Do you have any idea how stupid you sound?
Hi, my name’s Holly, I’m fat, happy, healthy and SHOCK HORROR, think people of all shapes and sizes can be gorgeous. You’d be amazed how many people there are just like me.
#87 – “most men dont like âcurvyâ? women”
And what, may I ask, is your evidence to support this?
i think all shapes and sizes are beautiful also. it just takes it away when they start running their mouths. it’s rude and i think what makes you more attractive is when you are nice
If you want people to be nice, have a quiet word with yer man there.
I dont see how nice is appreciated. I said you were beautiful and had great work and your “partner” of sorts starts running his mouth bashing every woman above a size 0. I know a great deal of average size women that work their asses off to stay a healthy size, and to refer to them as sloppy or gross is offensive. I work my ass off to stay this “fat”. And average… Saying such a broad size of women is repulsive is uncalled for. Its not like everyone standing this ground is morbidly obese. They are average women…not overweight in most cases. Thats like people saying skinny people are gross and need to eat a sandwhich…but its ok according to whatever moral code exists here. I never once said there wasnt anything to be appreciated of ALL shapes and sizes….but whatever. Its a beat point thats obviously not being taken in.
Haha, I was wondering how long it would take for you to add to this arguement Cere. 🙂
Ok, after reading all this, I don’t recall seeing Jon say that average size women were fat, or that anyone over a size 00 is fat. All he said was fat, so I think that is up to each person to read that and decide for themselves what is fat to them. If you’re 150 or 200 pounds and think your fat, then that’s you, he never said anyone over 110 pounds is fat or anything specific like that. I think people just like to get on here to look for an excuse to argue with other people and critisize the people who have their pictures posted on here.
And anyway, I thought the whole point of this post was that it was a nice picture of her scars, not how thin, fat, cute, ugly, crazy, etc she is?
haha. had to throw in crazy. haha.
#77 – Do you have any idea how stupid you sound?
Holly, people like that don’t care how stupid they sound. They’re not interested in anything that falls outside their limited intellectual capacity. There’s no room for individual thought or diversity. You’re better off not giving them the time of day.
Hey not liking fat women cause they dont like themselves and have piss poor attitudes has nothing to do with intellignce.They are the ones that got fat by their own laziness. Im sorry your all mad at me cause thin girls have good body art. I am also sorry that even with my bad attitude about fatties that i still manage to fuck skinny chicks like this.
i am one of those “fat” women, and i really like myself. i “got fat” because this is how my body works… i look better with some meat on my bones.
it’s attitudes like yours that make it really hard to submit pictures for consideration for modblog. if i sent in a picture of my half-sleeve, would you comment that the tattoo was great, but the girl was a lazy, sloppy, disgusting fatty?
