Appearance matters.
Don't fool yourself.
My daughter wanted a tattoo. She was about 17 or 18.
I said,"Wait till you are 25 then do it".
Knowing that by then she would have acquired sufficient wisdom to forget it.
In typical daughter fashion, she went and got one.
Years later, she had the lazer treatment to try to lessen the thing.
That helped a lot.
I am 23 and my fiance and I support ourselves better than any other 20 year Olds we know. I am Also tattooed through and through while working in the medical field.
Employers here don't care much about body modification as long as you're dressed professionally.

Owners of business, dealing with the public are very sensitive about how their efforts are perceived.
Maybe in central Africa this stuff would be more accepted- but not likely here.
I am shocked to see an otherwise pretty ( or plain) girl screw up her face.
I don't get it.
I suspect there is some subliminal subculture influencing this.
Is this the case?
Do they hate themselves?
Thanks for the somewhat compliment but this is MY body and as far as I am concerned, I did not ask for your Judgment or opinion.
Also, to add to this, my face is not pierced or tattooed. Even if it was, still not your place for judgment.

In the ineterst of expandding your knowledge despite yourself.
Smegma, a build up of penile secretion and other gunk, you can get an accumulation of it under the german helmet if not cleaned regularly.
The more you know.
Lol That's the "basic" term for smegma. It's Also simply a build up of body oils, sweat and dead skin cells in a crease or hole of the body.

If I have learned one valuable lesson in my life that I would like to share it is, don't ask questions. Not here. Not this.
TGA I don't know what smegma is (and I don't really want to know either), but I always struggled with earrings. I don't know much about all of this, but I know that if I put anything besides gold in my ears the result is awful. It takes less that 15 minutes for the swelling and itching. Maybe you haven't found the right material to use still?
That's what I am thinking. I don't really have time to Call anyone today about it because the person I trust is on vacation Lol so I may just try glass or rubber tapers.
I just feel the need to state this.
-Yes, I love myself, through and through.
-Through culture of body mod has nothing to do with my choices. I simply love modifying my body, simple as that.
-I have plans for more tattoos. Piercings are done.
-I am simply asking for advice from possible other body modded peers to see if they've experienced these same issues.
-State your opinion if you want to but I am employed IN THE MEDICAL FIELD, I work a full time job and I am engaged. My fiances opinion is the only one I care for when it comes to opinions.
-I have never and do not ever struggle with employment.
-Rather you find me to be pretty, plain, average, ugly, hideous...whatever, again, I do not care.
I am not here to start shit but I can say this, I've never ever received criticism from others like I have on these forums for MY personal choices. I'd Also never, in my entire lifetime, offend any of you or judge any of you for your personal choices so I think the same respect is deserved!
