question about self inflicted scars. help
ive noticed a few people at my school and elseware, none of which know each other, have parallel scars either on their arm or back. the first person i saw with it had 3 scars vertically parallel on their back. to perfect to be by accident. then i noticed 2 more people at my school with the same scars, but on their arm. one of them had 1, and the other had 3. i know it must mean something, anyone know what they mean????

Shiiiiiit! Now that takes 'self harming' to a different fuccccin level! Fuccccin horrible!
My guess would be self harm for the top though, even stripes or whatever - using physical pain to overide/block/numb emotional pain. A way of managing emotional pain. Those people need go talk to a good professional and find a way to put their feelings into words and not actions.
Peace

Those are usually deep cuts with ash rubbed in to make it heal with a large scar. Scarification is the removing of skin all together. It's some serious shit.KINGFEAR62 wrote:Yea in africa they do this shyt I once saw a show called tabu and its a village of people where when a boy reaches 18 he has to get cut all over his body with razors so when his skin heals up it looks like a crocadile skin it was sick to see the boy suffer for 2 days getting cut then weeks as all the cuts heal.

It's one of the few modifications that makes me ill to see. Not my thing at all.
I tell you what.... nothing is sicker than this shit.....
I love my tats.... at least i know the little bit of blood i spewed for them is enough to fill a tissue... and thats an all-dayer. I could see doing razor cuts and rubbing ink in them,.,,, I was told thats how the maori do their face tattoos... yuo really dont have to go very deep at all to put ink under the skin,,,, I have a few friends who have done it,,,, but I dont know anyone or WANT to know anyone sick enough to cut away at themselves in chunks like that to "beautify"... even some cutters (emo bleeders) I know found that too repuslive for them.

so.. .where does the pics i posted rate on those terms?Noog wrote:Shows there is a massive difference between a cultural identity/warrior tip and a self mutilation thing - both might make scares but couldn't be more different - the pic above is about manhood and pride and identity whereas cutting is about pain - a western trip still.

Yep.perongregory wrote:that shit is sick, no doubt about it, but I seen worse shit. Idiot westerners just do shit for the shock, wannabe oriental foreign spiritualism, exotic factor...such retards.
In a ritual traditionalistic context i can see why they do that. That other shit is just some wanna be individualistic, hedonistic, spoiled kid shit.
