Body Modification





When i sometimes see people with tattoos i think wow thats nice or wow what was that person thinking? I think that having a tattoo can say alot about what type pf person you are.

In the lecture when they showed us all these pictures of people with different tattoos in different parts of their bodies i was amazed. But when they showed us pictures of all the places people having peircing its made me cringe. In some i thought why have that peirced its not like anyone can see it? I have my ears peirced both the lobes and the cartilage and the cartilage was painfull enough for enough for me. I dont think it is bad having your ears or belly button or nose periced. but when people have their back peirced and have strings going through them i think what on earth posses you to do that. Is it something people to to fit in with their friends or is it purely because they wanted it done?
This site i found intertesting as it tells you all the places that could be peirced and have images to show it too. www.bmezine.com/

I agree with your blog view on Tatoos and body piercing. i think some forms of tatoos and piercing can be acceptable, but when it comes to piercing the back and other body parts can be very awkward.

I think tatoos can be seen to be evil depending on he form, whereas for some it can be seen to be appreciating or symbolising themselves.

I totally agree with your view on this topic, however I do find that a lot of these people who do have piercings in awkard places have some sort attraction to do these things, even though to us, well me, it may seem 'weird'.

Tattoos though I think are more significant then people know of, for example if some sort of symbol seems stupid or weird to majority of people, this may be due to the lack of understanding and not knowing the person who has the tattoo and what is might mean to them.

I for one do see myself getting a tattoo in the near future! :)
