if she wants to do it...nothing you can do about it...it's her choice, whether it's 'bad for her in the long term' or not.
why would it be bad for her, as long as its done respectfully and shes not going into something like kiddy teaching then it should be fine, its a good joba nd it pays well

Can we have a pic? heh heh

Of course. However that doesn't stop me caring about her and what happens in the future.

Bask in the fact that you have a gf who is hot enough to glamour model
If it's what she wants to do then let her...at uni she is old enough to make her own decisions and she can look after herself.

You get rich for no work at all. Why not? Let her see how it goes, and if she's making enough keep it as the only job. If she isn't go part time on that, part time on a real job.
if you really feel that worried about it, then i would suggest maybe bringing up your conceerns in conversation at some point?

Well....it totally depends. Does she want to go into politics/something? If she wants to have a serious career in the public eye, I would say to her that she has to be practical about the repercussions of glamour modelling.
Also, does she need the money? If it's just going to be to fund a little more shopping and clubbing, I'd ask her to think twice...but if she's tried the alternatives (i.e. Sainsbury's :p:) and they are interfering with her work, then why not? Just be sure to mention that her kids will be scarred for life seeing pictures of their mother with her baps out in old copies of The Sun.
Why not ask her to do escorting? If you get into a really classy organisation you get paid A LOT. And you get to go to swish events - everyone's happy.

It really is not that well paid. Supply and demand guys - loads of glamour wannabe's - few reputable titty shot jobs. Plenty of low paid one's though.

Oh katie - escorting usually involves sleeping with the client. Ofcourse it's not written in the contract but is asked at the interview. It's almost an unwritten given. If you decline the client (which you can) it just means you won't get much work in the long run.

People should go for it if they want - just remember it's dog eat dog.
Personally I'm a bit of a prude... (OK a total prude...)

So I would not be happy if my girlfriend announced her intention to glamour model. Its quite a serious decision to want to show your boobs to the world and as has been said, she will need to think about her future career and reactions of any possible kids. Also maybe the reaction of other people when hearing of her occupation. In certain company she would be looked down on for this. Whether that is the kind of company she would want to keep is up to her :wink:

But of course it is her own decision. If she has thought it through seriously and decided its what she wants then that's her choice. If you are unhappy with it (I'm not sure from your post) have a word with her and explain how you feel, but obviously it is her choice in the end.

Hi my GF wants to do glamour modelling work to help pay for Uni.

She already has several paid jobs lined up (including in a "sexy student" calendar!).

Although she has said she might want to do this full time after Uni I am worried that it may be bad for her in the long term.

Would appreciate your thoughts.:confused:


look bud you don't control her. I bet you're pissed off because other people apart from you would see her assets... :rolleyes:

Perhaps you can share this hobby and you can become a photographer!

I think you should sit down with her and explain your concerns in a non-judgmental way. If, after hearing them, she still wants to go ahead with her plans, you just have to support her. But if you are worried she's making a decision that will come back to haunt her in the future, you are totally justified in speaking up and letting her know that. It's up to her what she wants to do with that, after hearing it.
tbh i know nothing about the subject other than a bit of what ive read but as long as she is careful it sounds like a bit of fun. what long term issues are you worried about? its not like any future kids or employers will find out about it unless she tells them.
I think if she wants to do it, let her do it.

I know a couple of girls who do it n have bf's and they love it, pays their way thro uni and towards other things, ie clothes n etc. Their bf's are also proud to be with someone who is in the glamour industry n gets alot of attention.

Basically mate, if your gf wants to glamour model support her n be proud! Think of this way, all the blokes will be jealous of you!!!

Don't see why it would be. Loads of money is never bad.

If she wants to do this full time after uni then why on earth go to uni? Surely she's better off doing this while she's younger? Seems a waste of money paying for uni so you can stand about naked.

Also, she shudn't need to get her tits out to pay for uni, apply for a grant and a loan and that should cover things if you're restrained in your spending.
