A Letter to Terry Richardson

Dear “Uncle Terry,”

There is a difference between “art” and pictures of naked girls sticking their fingers into your mouth and squirting cow’s milk into their own. You say all your models “have fun” on your shoots, so why is it that numerous girls have come forth with stories about your lecherous abuse? I don’t know, maybe we’re all taking this too seriously—maybe we should “get a life,” as you told the young model who voiced discomfort at having her nude photograph published without consent. You know, maybe we’re all prudes and we totally don’t understand your super humorous and ironic tongue-in-cheek work. But when major models such as Rie Rasmussen and Coco Rocha call you out on your inappropriate behavior and state that they do not want to work with you again, you should dig way back into your tiny little mind and maybe consider what you are doing wrong. And after reading this article, as well as this one, and thousands more, you really should reconsider your life.

byeee!
