I think that's completely different. You're not posing in a provocative way in order to bring enjoyment to people. You were doing something that was improving the skills of the artists that were drawing/painting you. The artists aren't interested in your body so to speak, not in the way that those looking at the SG girls are. They're interested in the form of the human body and how they put that on paper, or in a photograph.

My friend has just finished Gray's and she's taken photographs of the human body which are entirely arty... Not flashy and brassy like SG or Page 3.
