You know... I had a labret and eyebrow for a time and then it past and could never decide on any ink for myself. Nothing ever demanded that I do it. I've never felt so compelled.
I kinda like the old Di'ne perspective of The Natives, as I think it is keeping with ritual traditions-- The markings are meant to call upon forces and powers and if you take them seriously then you shouldn't be calling to these forces and powers all the time. That's the point of the ritual.
In the end, it's still a big whatever. I don't mind it at all in person. Genital piercing is a big "why?" and like a permanent "I give up" for anyone treating your nipples properly. A nothing makes me like missionary more than a tramp stamp. It totally ruins porn worse than a condom or the man talking too much. And you are essentially barred from many sacred territories in various global traditions because you have basically damned yourself to some cause/spirit/entity/ancient being and you're not necessarily you. That was originally the point, to become embodied with supernatural essence for a period to enact a goal. A power up that you clean off or else cleans you. Now it's just a chalkboard for your personal interests? meh

In general I'm fine with all of it. I usually only have issues if gets excessive, you're human, be human. Too many piercings or tats or mods and you'll, in most cases I've come across, look horrible like the first attempt at a sketch gone wrong. Too many tattoos and they blend together and then no one can tell what they are, it just looks like you dipped yourself in ink without any design to it. Same with piercings, what's the point if you can't tell what's what anymore? Body mods are more what he mod is, I haven't really seen much beyond a split tongue, some horns, scars, and eyeball tattooing, some look good, others just don't. It's a case by case basis and I do take into account the reasons behind it all. If it's a traditional/religious/tribal thing, I can understand that, you do it not to stand out or make a statement, but to honor those who came before. Take the woman in your photo, I'm fine with that because it looks decent, I can tell what things if not their meanings, but I have never liked the ear spacer things, it looks awful to me and I've never heard a good reason behind having them aside from some cultural or religious thing. I also think she looks beautiful.
Depending on what it is and what the extent of it is. I’m all about individuality but as long as it’s not anything to off the wall or hinders ur natural beauty in anyway. Like horn implants and shit like that is a bit extreme and a little too strong for my taste but I’m not one to judge just because it’s not what I look for and it’s not preference, everyone likes what they like and they should.
I think it ruins any beauty they may have had, although I know a lot of people obviously like them. Tats seem to be a rite of passage or something. At one time they were solely for sailors. Now everyone has at least one. But what gets disgusting is when they go to far and look like they came from a circus freak show. Like gag me with a spoon!

Body mods: NO
Piercings: It depends where it is
Tats: NO, unless it's a small tats, YES, unless the tattoos are nice and has nothing to do with skulls. And it depends also if you have a cute face.A little tattoo like this is perfect. It doesn't matter where it is. On your legs, arms, neck etct, everything is fin
I'm sure there would be something I would find attractive , I'm sure some things beautiful , some things different some things art I mean it's cool that everybody has their own form of expressing themselves and and if somebody wants to do that I think it's cool it's just not for me
To a limited extent. Ear piercings, tongue, nipples, belly button piercing is fine. Facial tattoos look horrible and tattoos on a women should be limited to small delicate pretty ones. The face here would be to me be a nightmare scenario. I would neither date her nor hire her and I'd be very concerned if a child of mine brought her home to dinner.
Body mods?
No.
Piercings and tattoos?
Yes.
If it's not to a ridiculous degree it can be absolutely sexy on men and women. I have ten tats myself (including one on my neck and two small ones below my left eye) and plan to get a lot more in the future. I'm not a fan of piercings on myself but on women they are sexy af, same as tats.It depends.
Ear piercings are standard, a lip, eyebrow and nose one (not septum), can look good fine, though probably not all at the same time, a belly button one doesn't do anything for me really, though I'd prefer without and anywhere else, I don't like.
Tattoos have to be done right and I don't like them in the 'sexy areas' or on the face.
As for inserting other things inside like a horn in your head, hell no.Yes personally I love piercings I think they make people look super good and I personally want to get healtYes personally I love piercings I think they make people look super good and I personally want to get elf ears not as big as a girl in the picture but yeah I want some not as big as a girl in the picture but yeah I want some

The women in the picture looks like an absolute fucking freak and I wouldn't let the neighbor's dog get near her.
I have never seen a person who was more attractive because of a tattoo or a piercing. Never. Even one is too much. I find piercings fundamentally disgusting.
Tattoos depends on how they are done where they are made and how they are shown, they are often shown in a vulgar way and I don't like that at all. If they are small and have an intimate meaning, I find them acceptable, but certainly not particularly pleasant.I dislike all piercings, just don't see the point.
Tattoos can be awesome, but preferably not in a spot where it's seen at all times. I've been thinking about getting one, perhaps a big dragon on my back, but include the theme of one of my dad's tattoos. He's likely got cancer, we'll hear on Thursday, so worst case scenario I'm thinking about that as a way to remember him.I think there fine but there gets to be a point where it starts to detract from the natural beauty of the body and starts to look like one of those heavily graphittied walls in the inner city that you see when driving down the highway.
Assuming that isn't Photoshopped that one is a bit extreme. In moderation I find them attractive but someone really into it may want more.
My husband has a smaller tattoo on his arm, & I have my ears, left nostril, navel, & VCH piercings.Nope, I hate them.
I am against any tattoo.
Piercings... I do not like belly button piercings but can live with them.
Face piercings... intimate piercings were always a deal breaker.No, and that goblin in that picture looks scary. But women who wear those things usually scream "whore". I think fake piercings and tats might be okay for like cosplay or something.
My man has a lot of tattoos, except in his face. I don't like tattoos overall but I love him so I accepted it. He also has piercings on his ears, I have no problems with this. I hate seeing ladies covered in tattoos period! And I hate it when they go overboard with the piercings. One or two piercings on the ear is fine but having 4,5,6,7,8,9 etc piercings all over the body is a big NO for me. That's just my opinion and I'm not body shaming. It's just my opinion and preference.
Whats a body mod? Anything more than an eyebrow piercing is too much on a guy in my opinion. Anything more than a cross shaped tattoo that can easily be hidden is too much
I'm fine with some tats but not too many piercings bc I think then ur just asking for attention. The problem with both is that it's really hard to undo them
I don't understand why people do either, or how they think it looks "good" in any way? Especially women. Not a fan at all.
Yes as I'm an Alt girl myself
( 11 piercings and three tattoos so far)
I'd say it's too far when body mods become dangerous or cover the entire face.
I mean things like tattooing their eyeballs is a no no for meI honestly don't mind them, but it would be too far if you are completely modified. I like a lot more natural with some tats and piercings, not to the point where you are trying to be a completely different species
Body mods? I think the magnet in a finger is a cool one. Also cybernetic eyes will be cool when they get invented.
