himbo bimbo, when men became sluts

male models had a major breakthrough in the fashion scene fall 2009. they stormed the advertising business and fashion houses nailed each print ad with their daring, nude-oriented spreads. surprisingly, it has been sought by consumers and more and more advertising centered entirely on men without clothes or men with women's clothes. there has been a shift on how the male body should be [the hedi slimane days]. today, male models are regarded as man whores, skinny, tall and meaty [by meaty i mean muscles]. the fall 2009 ads were queued with controversial almost censored advertisements.
