You have to have the natural talent of being and looking confident in front of a camera or a large crowd of people watching you. Also, you have to take good care of your body. Healthy diet, exercise, taking care of skin, nails, hair, etc. It isn't as easy of a job as people think. I have a lot of respect for them.
Yeah, well - same goes for pornstars and hookers, so I guess you have much respect for those too...

Yeah, that's nice. Because a good cause is not good enough for dumb people, unless it has a piece of a*se attached to it...
And none of that changes the fact, that at the end of the day, the only reason people respect models and such, is because they like to imagine f*cking them. Nothing wrong with that, but I wouldn't put it very high on the scale of societal importance. If every phenomenally beautiful person dropped dead tomorrow - nothing would change, except some people would have to get used to having sex with fatties, or something...
To some degree I understand this view in critiquing the pervasiveness of raunch culture, which is often perpetuated by the fashion industry, but then I don't think "modelling" is necessarily always promoting that. It's not a monolithic profession, "modelling" ranges literally from average normal looking people wearing clothes in catalogues to the surgically augmented glamour modelling. There are even models with all-natural average bodies who specialise in realistic depictions of the male and female form, in a not so overtly sexualised and idealistic manner.
Sure it's not discovering the cure to cancer or finding distant planets, but it's not all sexual.
