Dumb *** people *NSFW*

I don't see what the big deal is but then again I have tattoos so maybe thats why.

//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif That is far different than a tattoo... I have a tattoo myself, but would never think of cutting into my body. I'll stick to ink...

Ditto, a tat is a little different than slicing out chunks of skin.

 
its your body, do as you wish, im not going to judge someone based on that
Indeed it is thier body, thier mind, thier freedoms and expressions, I just personally would not do it, could not do it, and do not find it attractive at all. Again not trying to force anything upon anyone, just stating my personal opinion.

EDIT:

I realize my title for this thread contradicts what I am saying here but honestly, I am open minded //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

To me they are not that different because they are both permanent and when you get a tattoo all it is a needle digging into your skin. I personally wouldn't do scarification but that’s only because I don't like how it looks.

 
It's no big deal. I have seen plenty of scarification, brandings, and much heavier body mods. As long as they understand the consequences of getting the work done and aren't being forced to do it, then it is just another medium for expression that doesn't bother me one bit. All the power to consenting adults who choose to heavily modify themselves. It isn't for me to judge one way or another about someone else's choices that don't affect me. Just 50 years ago, it was almost unheard of for a guy to have long hair, a tattoo, or a peircing without them being branded as outcasts, criminals, or something equally as deplorable. Now, you wouldn't look twice.

I think it is much more offensive the cultures and persons who force others to participate in tattooing, scarification, branding, and genital mutilation against their will in order to fulfill an agenda. There are still millions of women in the world who still have their gentitalia mutilated to prevent them from receiving any ****** pleasure or be attractive to anyone except their husbands.

And I though I was jealous and paranoid....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I am just trying to draw a dichotomy between the willfully done procedures of body modification and the term "mutilation" which is defined as "to cut up or alter radically so as to make imperfect" (http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=mutilation&x=0&y=0). For many individuals who have tattoos, brandings, scarification, etc is not seen as something that desicrates one's body or worsens it in any way. I am not going to start arguing points of cultural relativism; however, I see a huge difference between what we do in the States and this:

"An estimated 135 million of the world's girls and women have undergone genital mutilation, and two million girls a year are at risk of mutilation - approximately 6,000 per day. It is practised extensively in Africa and is common in some countries in the Middle East. It also occurs, mainly among immigrant communities, in parts of Asia and the Pacific, North and Latin America and Europe. "

the one where people put meathooks in their back and hang in the air kinda scares me. I dont understand it whatsoever and it's nasty to me, but hey if it makes them happy then good for them.

I saw a report about that on 20/20, really sad and effed up.
