What's with the name? Does he major in Ancient Latin? No, I don't.
I thought it appropriate to play with words and come up with a title to convey the irony with model stereotypes.
Stereotypes form for a reason, a generalisation based on a fact in a minority and projected onto the majority of people in the group. For female models it's usually regarding anorexia and other eating disorders. For male models, while not being as represented by the media as its female counterpart, it is the low intellect found throughout male models.
Honestly, this really is often the case... Sure, looks are nice... But you can only stare at someone for so long until you try and initiate a conversation... If the opposition cannot keep an interesting conversation evidently they will soon be forgotten.
So I found it necessary to create a paradox by taking 'male model' and turning into some elaborate scientific species name. I know, it really does nothing to justify my own level of intellect... However I never stated I was an exception to the stereotype did I?
I know I'm no Einstein, but when you research interviews with male models it becomes apparent to myself that I can at least retain a conversation with some depth and interest... Even if it's filled with big words that really hold no significant meaning that neither me or you truly understand.
I appreciate humour and intelligence in a human, so when I got the chance to create an ironic title... I couldn't just give it up could I?
