Really? How? By email? PM?
I had posted last night that I hoped some of the ladies listed had not been falsely labelled as being a part of something that they might not be party to. As I was typing, two other posts appeared which have also now been deleted that pretty much made my comments a moot point and after considering my comments in light of those posts, I chose to delete my post. Beyond all of the very valid arguments that have been made by Pillowtalk and Miss Bijou and other like-minded members about what makes someone a true independent, we see here a very big reason why this "model" can end up being such a poor choice for the ladies involved.
The accusation has been made that the handler has access to all of the handles. And since, to the critical eye, the ads do mostly share a very similar copy style, it does stand to reason that the ads were probably being created and also likely posted by the same individual. It would seem to follow that there is some truth that the handler did indeed have access to the handles. In fact, that point doesn't even seem to be being denied. So, when the ladies handles begin posting in defense of the "model" that they chose to be party to, it only makes sense that other members would be skeptical as to whether those comments legitimately come from the ladies or if the handler is the one making the posts. The doubt has been cast. It is there and it is valid. The handler and the ladies (or the handler posing as the ladies -- we really can't be sure) can swear all day long that only the ladies had access to the emails but we can never really be certain of that. It's unfortunate that these ladies can't see it but they have, in fact, given up some element of control over who they are and who they choose to be in the trade by allowing someone else to have that control. You may have indeed been making all the choices that you claim but the doubt about that will always linger now.
And I don't think it's up to Susi to need to contact these women to vouch for them or verify anything. She does so much to try and bring some legitmacy to the trade and has more than enough on her plate to try and do so. In my opinion, it's scenarios like this that make her efforts that much more difficult. However, I am willing to bet that if the ladies who are involved in this made an effort
to contact Susi, she would listen to them and offer them advice on how they could proceed from here and do things in a way that would be more constructive for them and for the industry in general.
