Also, to add to your comment:

How many male top models are there in the world? Not many. How many fashion models that work consistently are there in the world? Not many. Don't get me wrong: modeling agencies are filled up to the brim with male models, but a lot of them are just working occasionally and most are unknown. What I often find is that a lot of people want to see on Yummy (especially on the cover) those guys that are already somewhat of a popular face/name. When you are an established model, the matter of deciding if you're going to do it or not is based solely on the fact of if a nude photo could be bad for your career AND if you're into the idea of showing everything to the world. On the other hand, I'd say an established model may not face any consequences because tastefully done nudity can boost up a career and if you're someone in the business already, you already got your name out there and people cannot use that against you (unless it's something embarassing which Yummy does not do). New models have more to lose. If nudity is the first thing they do, they may be branded or seen as that person that is a nude model - and, believe me, even in the developed world there are people that see things that way. But for some new faces it might be good! Gio, as an example, started getting booked exactly because he posed for Yummy.

Still, Yummy is a business. Even though the magazine is not a monthly enterprise, it's hard to always find models to fill up people's "appetite" for novelty. Especially when the main feature is nudity. But it all ties back to the fact that there are not that many famous/popular malde models in the world to keep up the pace. When we combine the factors "not enough established male models in the world" + publication frequency, we can see the substantial problem that Yummy constantly needs to deal with. No wonder they have to branch out and occasionally have OF guys posing for their new issues.

What I think Yummy could consider is diversifying their portfolio and invite celebrities (not A-listers because most of the time that will prove to be a waste of time) and celebrity adjacent people like famous hairstylist Chris Appleton, who is a fucking hunk, and some celebrities that are known for being daring and boundary pushing. Generally people in show business are more prone to understand what is Yummy's mission and feel at ease with the idea of posing for it. Reality show contestants could also be a source of interesting looking guys and some of them really love the spotlight, so nudity would just be a natural step for some. Those dancers in TV shows like "Dancing With The Stars" and "Strictly Come Dancing" would also be good options not to say total hotties with perfect bodies and would fit in nicely with Yummy. If only they read this thread and considered entertaining the idea.

Yummy is a different thing for each reader. Some just want to see hot naked men. Some see it as a way to even out things and give male models the chance that has been given to female models. Some see it as tasteful nudity meant to make you aspire for the perfect men. But, more importantly, I think the people running Yummy should know what it is about. At times we can detect they are a bit confused about their own identity, but often they keep on delivering though I'm still waiting for them to push the envelop on some fronts.

that is a huge misconception. there is not a shortage of male models. there are dozens and dozens of models who are established and/or work consistently.

a lot of male models who are comfortable posing nude draw the line at full frontal. plain and simple.

on the other hand, if a model is going to pose nude and especially if they are going to consider going full frontal it needs to be for something deemed as prestigious or at the very least considered cool and tasteful. yummy isn't considered any of those things. that is part of yummy's issue in consistently pulling in more established models.

Agreed

well said, it just reflects the culture of the new generations especially the GEN Z and forward, nudity is not a taboo anymore and what's celebrated here is full male body as an art form there's nothing to hide anymore ! it's 24 years into the new century afterall !

They actually had Julian Morris in their first issue. So I don't think they have problem with inviting celebrities. But how many will agree to pose is another question.

You are right about A-listers. Most of them won't even pose shirtless for the cover of Men's Health/Fitness magazines, let alone hoping them to pose nude for Yummy. I think the company usually ask celebrities posing for Man About Town or Rollacoaster instead.

I see your points in your post but I think how to define 'celebrities' is going to be another debate, just like how to define 'top male fashion models'. Probably each member here will have a different criteria. Let's just say 'agree to disagree' and let's not even go there.

I totally agree with you that Yummy is a different thing for each reader. I said this before, Yummy can disappear at any time. So I treasure this magazine and hope that it will be doing well and last for a long while.

the YUMMY-s are fast becoming the new PURPLE magazine (that launches Juergen Teller, Terry Richardson, Wolfgang Tillmans, and Mario Sorrenti ) i think, it's so wonderful to watch it grow and blossom to this state, LET IT GROW MORE DON'T PULL IT'S LEG and confine them it's a new territory afterall !

No, no: a "huge misconception" is that you misread my entire post. After the sentences you highlighted from my post, you ignored this: Don't get me wrong: modeling agencies are filled up to the brim with male models, but a lot of them are just working occasionally and most are unknown. Then I went on to explain that new faces have to weight the fact that having nudity as their first big feature can be a problem, and contrasted that with how things work when it comes to a popular, established, model. Also your argument that there are "dozens and dozens of models" working consistently is a bit too much because a dozen models is still not enough in a world of billions. Even if you multiply the "dozen." Years ago it was divulged that the most popular male model in the world made a million dollars in a whole year, while female top models were making 40 times that amount. The highest demand in the field is for women, not men. So we can instantly see that there are way less male top models. Add nudity to this scenario and you'll have a lot of trouble finding big names for a publication, unless you have an unending source of money to pay them - besides good arguments to convince them to take the job.

Now as to your opinions regarding Yummy, well that's your opinion. You're entitled to have it. While I don't think it is the Vogue of male nudity, I wasn't disappointed by the issues I actually bought. Comparing to other things I've found on the market, I think they are doing much better. The good idea is there, they just need better strategic business planning. Also they are warriors just for attempting to produce this type of project in an era where print is dying.

i read your post and understood it just fine. you are the one who didn't read. you reiterating that agencies are "filled up to the brim with male models, but a lot of them are just working occasionally and most are unknown" is pointless. this is obviously true, but it doesn't negate that, as i stated, there are dozens and dozens of models who work consistently and/or are established.

a dozen models is still not enough in a world of billions.

Even if you multiply the "dozen."

again you didn't read. not A dozen. i clearly said "dozens and dozens." so yes, multiply the dozen several times over. there are enough working or established models for a biannual magazine with roughly 4-5 covers an issue to fill those covers for the next decade and still have no issue. just because you don't know this or aren't aware of it doesn't make it less true. not sure what a world of billions has to do with the number of male models who could be shot for yummy. doesn't make any sense whatsoever and it's completely irrelevant to the conversation.

Now as to your opinions regarding Yummy, well that's your opinion. You're entitled to have it. While I don't think it is the Vogue of male nudity, I wasn't disappointed by the issues I actually bought. Comparing to other things I've found on the market, I think they are doing much better. The good idea is there, they just need better strategic business planning. Also they are warriors just for attempting to produce this type of project in an era where print is dying.

this is the opinion and general consensus amongst models, agents, and many others in the industry or adjacent to the industry which is why you rarely see models of a certain caliber in yummy.

you are drawing conclusions from what is very clearly limited knowledge. which is fine, but you are wrong in a lot of respects. you don't actually KNOW what you're talking about. i do. so perhaps be a little more humble.
