I have always pictured the female body in nude form as the truest beauty in art. I might be a little deviant in my ways of being an artist, though. Even in my tender grade school years I had aspirations to grow up having a career as "stripper Barbie." It was my goal to have the power of seduction, to be able to bring men to their knees. With Bettie Page as my idol and Marilyn Monroe trailing behind in her luscious, knee-high boots, I began my quest for the ultimate freedom.

I lost my virginity on camera in costume; I'd say I jumped in feet first. I am a bit wary of writing this article while living among this prudish society, but blackmail goes a long way. Er, I mean friendship, friendship goes a long way.

When I first found out about the world of nude pinups I was 19-years old and positive I wouldn't be accepted to pose for anyone. I have my fair share of tattoos and piercings, and though I believe they enhance my beauty, many can find fault in that statement. So I held my nose and took the plunge. I sent in a few poorly shot self photos with my application and not even a full 48 hours later I was face-to-face with my first of many photographers. For the first time in my life I felt free of inhibition; I have never felt so alive as I do in front of the camera.

I'm in my early 20s now and shoot for several different websites, whom will not be named so as to not violate any contracts. Maybe what I do is a sin in some people's eyes, but in the words of Ms. Page, "Adam and Eve were naked in the Garden of Eden; only when they sinned did they put their clothes on." Words to live by. I'm not religious by any means but to me, that statement makes sense.

As for my aspirations as a stripper, well, I tried that, too. After working for three different clubs, I've decided I'm just not that type of girl. Don't get me wrong. I loved most of it, but it was, well, boring. Same old drama, same old moves, though I do fancy a good "princess pose" from time to time. I felt like a sleazy fast food servant. I just prefer doing nude shots. I'm not a dumb blonde; I'm part of a network of strong women who are business people. We just don't sell our souls for pantsuits. I enjoy the adrenaline rush, so as long as my tits haven't fallen to the floor, I'm going to keep having fun and celebrate the natural beauty of the female form.

There are downfalls in this line of work as true as any, like the several stalkers, having my heart broken by the love of "that moment of my life." But then I remember the facts:

A. Stalkers have existed in my life since high school;

B. Maybe dating a guy one has met at a nude photo shoot isn't after one's inner beauty; and

C. I'm a girl, right? And girls just wanna have fun, right? Well, this girl will be having fun until they replace her old parts with artificial, yet lifelike replacements. (Even then, we'll see).

I'm a nude pinup model and I love life. I enjoy my job and nobody can take that away from me. Sex appeal is better than currency these days and I will get what I want. But ladies, never forget who you are under your lingerie and you'll be just fine.

Signed,

A Stripping Queen With Integrity
