4 eyes and a pair of lady bumps

I think that most girls don’t like to wear eyeglasses, especially when they’re young and in school. Maybe they feel that glasses make them look less pretty, and even unattractive, which is an old stereotype, at least in America. It’s another reason for someone to pick on them. So they’ll wear contact lenses more than they don a pair of glasses.

The myths of eyeglass stereotyping state that someone wearing eyeglasses is considered more intellectual, because they read a lot, and they’re less physical and weak. Report card A-listers, geeks, wallflowers and classroom brainiacs are supposed to wear glasses; cheerleaders, bikini show contestants, sorority presidents and volleyball players don’t.

When it comes to guys, Clark Kent wears glasses; Superman does not. But if someone kicked sand in your face at the beach, eyeglasses would protect you.

Glasses have become more fashionable over the years with high-level designers getting in on the act and that’s raised the status, and the prices, of the lowly eyeglass in the eyes of women.

I actually like seeing SCORE or Voluptuous Girls wearing glasses. I think they can look sexy in them and glasses can add a cuteness and a real-life feel. In our pictorials, starting off wearing glasses and then getting naked is also a kind of transition from good girl to naughty party girl. Once the glasses come off, so do the clothes.

Most of our shoots with glasses tend to use the student or teacher theme. Sometimes, it’s an office set.

But I think glasses can start off a pictorial that uses any theme. There’s one opening shot of Janet Jade wearing safety glasses in a work shop pictorial and video, and I think that Janet, who’s an eyeful anyway, looked good in them.

What do you think about models wearing glasses in their photos?

Do you see it or not?

Or does it make no difference?
