What if Melyssa Ford had done a provocative photo
like this in her heyday. What would the black
communities’ reaction be to it? Would we say this is
going too far and is in poor taste? Sometimes it
feels like there are greater restrictions on the
commercially acceptable* sexual
expression of black models, and the curvier and more
innately sexy they are, the greater those
restrictions. Just food for thought. Be interested to
hear other’s opinions.
* By this I mean sexual expression that is allowed
mainstream acceptance, versus sexual expression that
is limited to the internet and sites like Model
Mayhem, but will never see the inside of a Barnes
& Noble book store.
