Do you agree the more body mods a woman had, the greater her personal trauma?

[genericname85]

This is not meant to insult you if you have body mods.

By body mods i mean piercings, brandings, Tattoos and all such things that permanently alter the look of ones body.

It seems to me that women instead of making change to their lifestyle when something bothers them, they rather change something on their body and see that change as a proxy for changing what bothered them in the first place.

Or in other words, instead of fixing issues they have, they accept the issues and instead change their looks to feel better about themselves.

Meanwhile men mostly do that to display dominance. Maybe they are really dominant and express that with body mods or they lack dominance and try to compensate with body mods.

[NathanDavis]

no... I do not agree with stupidity

also... there's plenty of people out there who have experienced trauma but have no body modifications, and there's plenty of people who have body modifications but have not experienced personal trauma

as for dominance, that's even a more ridiculous assumption that either tattoos, piercings or other would grant you authority over someone/something else, lmao...

[NathanDavis]

correction... * I don't tend to agree with stupidity*

[genericname85]

none of what you said invalidated my theory that people who have body mods have greater trauma. it's not stupidity, it's correlation. i'm also assuming you have tattoos or piercings, cause you sounded butthurt.

[genericname85]

not every plumber is a man and there's plenty of men who are not plumbers. that absolutely does not invalidate the fact that most plumbers are men. in fact even trying to argue that is as you worded it: "stupidity"

[NathanDavis]

I was not trying to invalidate any dumb theories...

i just expressed whether I agree with the statement or not

whatever stupid theories other hold is not really my problem... now If I had tattoos that matched my trauma I would look like carbon but is just not the case, I just do not have interest on getting any tattoo

assumptions like yours is precisely what makes all this a stupid theory

[NathanDavis]

a plumber just proved that you lack any notion of actual understanding about logic...

and that plumber didn't have to be a plumber to flush down your dumbass theory

but just to play along because this is really funny... do you have any links to these "studies" or "research" that show such "greater trauma" in people but not in the contrast population

where are the sources for both?

[genericname85]

i see you're crazy butthurt. no point in continuing this situation. you did not "just disagree" you also called me stupid, which is why i started challenging your flawed logic that you expressed in this sentence: there's plenty of people out there who have experienced trauma but have no body modifications, and there's plenty of people who have body modifications but have not experienced personal trauma" but you understood nothing of it, so at this point, i don't see where this conversation can go, if you fail to understand such basic logic.

[NathanDavis]

I didn't say you are stupid

I said the theories are stupid...

there's a difference there... however, given the fact that you have no understanding of logic but still revolve around such concepts as if you did ( see and read about bias and fallacy) that would be grounds to apply such assumptions

but I am still not doing it... the theories are still stupid nonsense

by the way... you still have no data to show, even the guy who agrees with you refuses to show data, so...

[Anonymous]

Yes there is a lot data that substantiate this. This is why tattoos (anything not small or readily visible), piercings beyond the ears, and any non necessary plastic surgeries are all turnoffs for decent men.

[genericname85]

:D tell @NathanDavis about it. he wants to see the data.

[Opinion Owner]

Sorry I'm not going to hold @nathandavis 's hand. He's going to to have to learn this for himself. Either by researching it or by learning it the hard way. 🙂😆

[genericname85]

lost cause xD

[Opinion Owner]

Yup.

[dearryy]

Ummm, well I wouldn’t say all women who have a lot of tattoos have them as a way of telling their pain through art on their skin but I think a lot of women, men too, do take their personal trauma and make it visible to others through tattoos. I just don’t think you should generalize it as all women or all men do it for that reason. Some people just happen to appreciate art enough to put it on their skin.

[genericname85]

i'm not talking about exceptions. i'm talking about the general reality of it. exceptions don't invalidate generalizations. generalizations are usefull tools to understand reality. if you avoid using them, you won't understand anything.

[Anonymous]

Where in the hell did you get that idea? 🤦‍♀️

[genericname85]

in personal interaction with people i noticed a higher ammount of trauma in women who have body mods than in women who have not. i talked about this with friends and they all confirmed that they also share this experience.

[gothbxtch]

no lmao? sure i have body mods and have had personal trauma, but it’s unrelated.

[genericname85]

i don't think that it is unrelated. i mean show me one person who names themself along the lines of "goth bitch" who doesn't have any tattoos. i dare you.

[genericname85]

i'm not shitting on your trauma by the way. we all have it. it sucks. end of that story. tho i do think it leads many people ESPECIALLY women to get tattoos cause they use it as a symbol for change and improvement.

[gothbxtch]

i’m not yet old enough to have tattoos, right now it’s just piercings. hmm, maybe in a way? i am goth as an expression of emotions and pain (i am mentally ill, neurodivergent, and traumatized), but not everyone who has tattoos and piercings has a similar situation. does that make sense?

[genericname85]

well somehow this is typical with women. not to attack or offend women but when i talk to men about "general things", they understand i'm talking about general things and understand that obviously exceptions exist. with women, they always instantly bring up the exceptions. "but NOT ALL..." yeah duh. when i speak about general stuff, i explicitly do not speak about exceptions. not to ignore exceptions but everyone knows, exceptions are few people. not most people. wouldn't call them "exceptions" when they were a significant majority. it's not like exceptions take anythin away from the correctness of generalized statements.

so yeah. normally it goes without saying that general statements do not encompass exceptions. cause that's what the word exceptions is for.

[Likes2drive]

Who knows, could be multiple reasons

[WanderingLoveWizard]

Absolutely

[WanderingLoveWizard]

Same goes for guys too

[genericname85]

i feel guys are more likely to stand up and change something in their life than women. women are more likely to not do something about it and change something else (like change hair color or get a tatoo) as proxy for the change they should have made. cause for example: gettting a tattoo and acceping that you're fat is easier than hitting the gym and losing weight.

[WanderingLoveWizard]

Lol, that's so true. You're describing my girlfriend perfectly. She's not fat, but she deals with her problems by dyeing her hair or getting tattoos lol. Then the problem is still there, but hey, at least she has pink hair now!

[LazerBean]

Yeah.

[In_Trance]

agreed

[Anonymous]

Nope
