We're number 1

Here's your chance to earn $100 by simply paying attention.

Body in Mind is well known for saying that female beauty is good, and for debunking all the theories that claim it is not.

What's less well-known is our standing offer of $100 to anyone who can find someone who said it before we did. We believe we are the first ones, ever, in the history of mankind, to declare female beauty is a good thing. If you think you know of someone who said this before we did, and can prove it, we will happily pay you $100 for your effort.

Jеnnіfеr Gаrnеr in GQ

Like almost everyone, we think Jеnnіfеr Gаrnеr is just the coolest thing. We just updated the Mag rack for this month and she is definitely the stand out as far as beautiful women in magazines this month. The only problem we have with her is how she managed to remain 'undiscovered' so long. This woman is over 30!

You can see who's in all the mags this month here.

Bаby Dоll

Tennessee, where are you now...
When we shot these i was thinking
of you and Archie crying out
to his child bride,
her holding out for years
making' him pay
and pay
But sometimes when you're shooting
you just keep it to yourself
and smile
It was near the end of the day
light was slipping away
We dragged the little bed over,
Roxanne crawled in
and she was perfect anyway
me crying: "Bаby Dоll"
her working the little bed
we had a sublime understanding
bless you Roxanne
Whеn Bаby Doll first came out in 56
it was controversial
like all Tеnnеssее Wіllіаms' stuff.
Nowadays we are hammered by
russian lolitas and countless other
unmentionables that only serve
to remind of a more repressed age
when i was sitting in my friend
Frankie's smoke filled place
in Amsterdam howling with laughter
at Kаrl Mаldеn screaming for his
Bаby Dоll . . ..

Spоrts Illυstrаtеd Swіmsυіt Edіtіоn 2003

The newest Spоrts Illυstrаtеd swimsuit edition is out and online. You can see it here.

We're still not sure why such beautiful women have to be covered up with bikinis, but then, you've always got Body in Mind if you want to see such lovely women nude.

Anyone who cares about women will boycott Amеrіcаn Idоl

Frеnchіе Dаvіs.

If you don't know who she is by now, you'll probably hear a lot more about her in the coming weeks. She was the most memorable and certainly most powerful singer on the current edition of Amеrіcаn Idоl, Fox's mega hit about finding an unknown and making him or her a star, and yesterday she was 'dismissed' from the show in a move that has some people - though not nearly enough - outraged. She was dumped from the show because four years ago, at the age of 19, she appeared topless on a porn site, and now the producers of Amеrіcаn Idоl can't get far enough away from her.

I thought we had long moved on from this sort of thing, I thought we had finally matured to the point where nudity was no big deal and women were no longer branded as untouchable because of it. But I was wrong. Apparently the old attitudes are alive and well at Fox - which is ironic considering the slate of truly offensive, seedy and blatantly sexualized shows they've had no qualms about airing up til now.

American idol seemed to be among the more noble of these reality shows, nothing so sinister as the revolting Jое Mіllіоnаіrе, which lured women to it under false pretenses, (in my mind committing fraud for which they should face criminal charges) for the sole purpose of salivating while these dupes are lied to and manipulated and then told the truth, not to mention vilified for then being 'gold diggers' if they decide not to marry the idiot who lied to them and seduced them and humiliated them on national television. It was far better than any idiotic 'Cеlеbrіty Mоlе' or back stabbing Survivor, it was supposedly about finding a diamond in the rough out there and turning that person into a well deserved superstar. It was about finding talent, finding personality, finding ambition and rewarding it. But now, it's clear that it's not really about any of these things. Talent only counts, it seems, if it comes in a morally acceptable package that couldn't possibly offend anyone, anywhere, in any conceivable way.

What's so crazy about this whole thing is that the producers are reacting, in knee-jerk way, to the mere possibility that someone might consider Frenchie's past immoral. They are taking the politician's view of the world, the Gеоrgе Bυsh view of the world, reacting 'just in case', not to an actual outcry but to a perception of what people might find immoral. It 'might' be considered immoral by someone, they think, and so they're going to ruin this woman's career rather than find out for certain or - god forbid - say to hell with it and support one of the stars of their show. They're covering their own asses, to put it bluntly, the way the most seasoned cowards do, and hanging Frenchie out to dry. Essentially, this woman's entire career has been ripped away from her because she has breasts, and showed them off at one point, and every single one of those producers - who are looking for an 'idol', for a camera-friendly, good-looking young thing to sell records - are as hypocritical as they are self-righteous for doing it.

This is what feminists, the so-called defenders of women, should be fighting tooth and nail against. This is the kind of thing that people should be outraged by. Haven't we had enough of women's careers being ruined because of some false perception of morality, because some second-hander is so terrified that Mrs. Bеrthа Smіth from Idaho is going to be offended that he has to yank a woman out of the spotlight? It happened to Vаnеssа Wіllіаms, who thankfully went on to have a successful career anyway, it happened to the recent Mіss Nоrth Carolina, de-crowned because some vile ex-boyfriend circulated private nude photos of her, and it happened to the Romanian gymnasts, who were banned from coaching for doing their videotaped routines in the nude. Who knows how many others had have their careers smashed because someone - somewhere - might be shocked that women have bodies worth looking at. It's ludicrous.

There's also something very insidious about a show like Amеrіcаn Idоl, who intentional seek out 'regular people' from every day life, "researching" a contestant's past. What possible difference could it make? These people show up to sing, they audition and flaunt their stuff, and if they're good enough they get to try for the brass ring, judged solely by their talent, their personalities and their abilities as performers. Where does someone's past fit into this anyway? I couldn't care less if someone was a waiter or an ex-convict or a millionaire - I want to hear them sing. It's sleazy and underhanded to allow people to embrace their dreams and aim for something better in their lives, only to scour their pasts looking for enough dirt to bring them down.

And if they really did have something against someone posing nude, if there really was something morally wrong with nudity (which there isn't), then why wouldn't they *reward* someone who was embarking on a different path in life? Why wouldn't they congratulate her for getting out of that business and trying for something more 'morally acceptable'? Any way you cut it, it just doesn't make sense. It seems to me to be nothing more than intentional mud-slinging, a genuine attempt to bring down the good for being the good, and pure, abject, groundless fear of what other people might think.

Frеnchіе Dаvіеs was one of the bravest people I've ever seen - she was a larger woman, and brave enough to enter a contest to be an 'idol', daring everyone who ever made fat jokes to try and make a joke about her. She had, by far, the best, most powerful, most charismatic voice of any of the contestants. She had personality, spark, she was confident and cool, she was the peacemaker for a group of other contestants with her no-nonsense "this is your chance, don't be idiots" speech - and she's gone. I have no doubt she would have made it to the finals of this contest, and very possibly could have won the whole thing because the American people, the viewers who would have voted on her, are much smarter, much cooler, much more enlightened and much more *moral* than any of the producers of Amеrіcаn Idоl give them credit for.

I wish every woman within viewing distance of Fox would fax, mail or email a picture of themselves topless to the producers of this show, in solidarity with Frenchie, and write, in thick black marker

I HAVE BREASTS. DEAL WITH IT

and promising to boycott the show. I bet if they did, if the ratings dropped sharply after this incident, they'd get Frenchie back their in no time with weak excuses about how it was all a misunderstanding.

I don't need to watch Amеrіcаn Idоl anymore. I've found my idol in Frenchie - and I hope everyone else has too.

In that time we've received thousands of questions about the site itself, its unique philosophy, it's views of beauty and women, and its founder, D.Bell.

We figured it's about time we clarified some of these topics in an Abоυt Us page. You can read it here. Naturally, we'll continue to answer any questions our readers have. We hope you find it interesting and we thank you for your curiosity.

We're not addicted to cheesecake, really we're not...

The last couple of galleries from master cheesecake chef Vіctоr Lіndеnbоrn have proven to be quite popular with our visitors, so here is our third.

We were tempted to say we've become addicted to his work when an announcement of a so-called 'scientific' discovery came to our attention. The discovery states that female beauty is nothing more than a male drug. We wrote a rebuttal to this nonsense here.

We are not addicted to female beauty any more than we are addicted to food. And neither are you. We can no sooner stop enjoying the sight of a lovely human woman exuding her adorable and delightful essence than we can give up eating or breathing, but no one would have the insolence to claim we were addicted to food or oxygen.

Those who equate a love of female beauty with a drug habit reveal the depravity in their own souls - a depravity that sees the most visibly glorious examples of humanity - beautiful women - as a drug, and thus mankind in general, as shameful, dirty drug addicts.

We do not. We love beautiful women because we love life and all of its potential. And we are thrilled to have been born human. Beauty brings out the best in us, not the worst. Beauty is not a drug, it is a necessity. And it is not an artificial stimulant, it is as real and wholesome as it gets.

See what we mean. If you're a Body in Mind member, click here.

The beauty at Nυdе Illυsіоn is no illusion at all

How is it that masters always make what they do so well sound so easy? It's infuriating. Especially to those of us who take up a hobby or occupation sincerely hoping to attain some measure of greatness at it, only to find that it's the hardest thing we've ever done.

Phоtоgrаphеr Lаυrіе Jeffery is one such master. "It's just the way I shoot my pictures," he says, "Beautiful women + beautiful light = beautiful images".

Rrrrrriiiight.

Wise ass. We've been waiting a long time to learn his secrets, and it looks like we'll have to wait longer still.

Happily however, we no longer have to wait for long stretches between being treated to new work from this humble genius. He has at last opened his own pay site online!

Nυdе Illυsіоn, Jeffery's newest site, is long overdue, and has well-earned its welcome. His were the first galleries we featured here at Body in Mind, and they are among the best in the world. In spite of its title, everything about Nυdе Illυsіоn is very real indeed. In Jеffеry's work you will find very real women who possess very real radiant beauty lovingly captured in very real settings with very real mastery.

In fact, the only illusion on Nυdе Illυsіоn, is that Jeffery makes it look easy.

Click here to enjoy a preview of Jeffery's trend-setting work, and then join his site. Nυdе Illυsіоn is the surest way to very real beauty.

Are you addicted to beauty?

A recent media announcement claimed that scientists had discovered that female beauty is nothing more than a male drug, much like cocaine.

Is it true? Not according to D.Bell who has written an interesting rebuttal and defence of female beauty which we all can - and should - use to defend our love of beauty.

Question:There are so many nude gallery sites appearing these days and I can only afford membership in so many. Yours appears to be one of the best, though. Can you give me a reason to buy a membership in Body in Mind over one of those other sites?

Answer: Sure. In one word: quality. Most websites entice you in by showing you their best images in the free section. Only after you join do you discover: a) that the free samples are the ONLY good images on the site, b) the galleries consist of every shot from a set, whether they're good or not, or c) that many of the shots in the gallery are maddeningly similar. Rip off.

Body in Mind is different. We are dedicated to only the greatest female beauty. In fact, despite claims of other web sites, Body in Mind was the first to focus exclusively on the beauty of women, even over sexuality or pornography, and it will remain our deepest conviction. Thus every single one of our galleries consists of only 'magazine cover quality' images, images that are as good as or better than our free samples. We choose only the very best images from the best photographers around, and only the most beautiful models.

We're confident that we have the most beautiful images on the internet. Let us know if you agree after you join.

- DBell, Editor and Creator of Body in Mind

Body in Mіnd Exclυsіvе: Blυе Vеlvеt

Why does everyone like velvet? What is it anyway? What's it made out of? Is it natural or man-made? How does it come to be used for everything from the capes of King's to cheesy paintings of Matadors with capes?

Velvet is soft. It's deep. It's dark. It's fun.

But most of all velvet is beautiful. Which is why it's so popular. In fact, in its blue variety it attracts every man, from Bоbby Vіntоn to Dеnnіs Hоppеr and every temperament in between.

Our latest gallery at Body in Mind represents a very important landmark to us, it's our first gallery of images from Tоm Rυddоck. Our favourites for a long time, Tom's Blυе Nυdеs are to female beauty what velvet is to cloth. Absolutely everyone will find something they love. Here you will find outright superbeauty in an almost dizzying display of photographic virtuosity. In fact, Ruddock goes through artistic styles like many photographers go through film - and he's a master of them all.

You'll see what we mean in our exclusive gallery of his images as well as on his incredible website. We've spent 3 days going through his huge portfolio of work, and have selected what we believe to be the best images. As far as superbeauty goes, you will find some of the most gorgeous women that have ever existed on earth in these photos, and as far as Ruddock's genius goes, you stand a very good chance of finding your new favourite photo of all time among them.

If you're a Body in Mind member, click here to enjoy these beautiful images.
