What are girls thinking when male model disrobes in art classes?

Question

ok so I'm a male nude model for art classes and most of the times the classes are female students.  Every time I get on the stage and get ready to disrobe I notice the females are just sitting there kind of staring at me.  Please be honest... are the girls sitting there thinking about how they are going to draw me or are they wondering what my d*** looks like / size / etc?  What would you be thinking?

As a graduate with an art degree and experience in sketching many nude models, I can honestly say that when we look at you we are selecting our area of focus and visualizing what we want to emphasize in the piece. We don't always draw the entire body, we will ask ourselves(while looking at your body) which area looks good at which angle and if its too much to include the entire body or if it will be too desolate if we focus only on a certain part(ie the knee bent at 90°). Then we decide which medium we want to use.

Initially the thought may flit across our mind but very briefly because we are on the clock trying to capture the atmosphere and making decisions so we get down to business

They're staring at you, because they're trying to draw you, which requires quite a bit of concentration. I mean, you're probably not the first nude model they've seen, male or female. I mean, that's what I'd be thinking about anyway.

you're a nude model. they are supposed to look at and study your body.  they may be checking out your parts but ultimately they have to look in order to do the task right?
