That's really what's controversial about Kate Moss, is it? The fact that she is full of contradiction-her delicate face and waif like figure, but obviously underneath is iron determination, her care-free spirit yet extremely professional and smart business moves, and being extremely independant, carries on her life outside of conventional ways, and made some risky choices along the way. I don't remember a model in recent times that has inspired so many discussions-political, social, and fashion wise.
Kate Moss needs to settle down and start being a good mom. She already had her unconventional, independent and free days. But a child isn't something to leave to nannies and friends so you can go out and get smashed.
Oh, and Doherty is the last choice for a father figure in my eyes.
"Hey, what does your Dad do?"
"Uhhh. He tells people he sings, but really he just shoots up, goes to court and sprays cameras with fake blood from a syringe."
"Oh."
"Yeah. My parents are media whores."
But that's the discussion-what's a good mom? What's the standard? Is there one? Would she have gotten the same reactions if she's a man? She is a working woman and a high profile one so she is balancing the same issues as most working women nowadays. What's the idea of the making of a good woman? Who is to say? Anybody criticized members of the Rolling Stones of not being good fathers? They were always on the road, so is there double standard?
The problem is not her work. The real problems are drugs and alcohol. And if you mix a lot of work+alcohol/drugs+being with Pete Doherty:BOOOM!!
We are not talking about just work, it's the whole. But would you have used the same judgement on a man? not defending Kate, but the truth of her lifestyle might be more normal than the papers have made it to be, or worse, but she might live no different than some Hollywood movie stars in the golden days, think Joan Crawford, or Betty Davis, all the cocktail parties, and working, and leaving the kids with the nannies. Those women were pioneered, so is the idea of an unconventional woman controversial?
Drugs and alcohol-Keith Richards, anybody criticized him as a father? This is not defending Kate honestly, but the standard of what's expected of men and women obviously is different and the expectation for men to be decent fathers so far sounds REALLY LOW.
eucinpyos, like your work,they are kinda Warhol like, snapshots like, but with better tones.
XDDDDDDD Your reply really made me laugh!!! I totally agree with you.
Yes I think the same about men. A person into drugs and alcohol cannot be a good father/mother/whatever. I know what I am talking about, because of my father...
