Quote - Good point Moriador. I was thinking more of lingeree type pinups. Thinking of the classic pinups of the 50s, they featured a lot of situations, cowgirl, sailor girl, librarian etc. In that style, there are definitely many possibilities for male equivalents like the ones you mention. I admit to being pretty ignorant regarding female fantasies, though I suppose men in uniform is always popular.

I was thinking the other day about classic male fantasy figures, stewardess (alas, 'flight attendant' just doesn't have the same appeal), cheerleader, nurse, French maid... Today, likely as not, she is packing big guns (no pun intended) or a sword - interesting changes. 

If I recall anything from the Weiner sexts scandal, it was the number of discussions surrounding why it is that women generally tend not to respond positively to close up images of men's genitals. I think -- though this is obviously not going to be true of a considerable number -- women prefer not to see the same sort of graphic detail as men. So, yeah, the 1950's level of exposure, if not the artistic style, seems like it might appeal.

I think the girls with guns and swords and weapons etc might be a result of that "illustrating our own narrative" thing.  But maybe men are liking the kickass type too. It is interesting to see and ponder wider social changes and possible correlations...

My renders go the whole gamut from fetish, to smutty, to graphically pornographic, to traditional fantasy illustration, to attempts at realism, to dinosaurs. The only things I don't do (I mean, don't render - I don't do them either, but that's into the realm of WTMI) are torture, excessively kinky stuff like copraphagia, and fairies/unicorns. Of the last three, I'm not sure which is most offensive.

ETA: I don't model either.  I'm sure I'd be terrible at it. I have no basis for this belief other than that I've never tried, and I have less patience than I should have for complicated new software interfaces. I should give it a go anyway.
