I am a great believer in "It's my body I want to look a certain way".
I admire people who have the balls/courage/conviction to go through with body modification.
Whether it's the lady who cut her ears at the top to appear more Elvish or Elven; the gentleman who cut his own tongue to make it forked; or the people at Wetworks who implant themselves with mechanical devices.
My question is would you class it as mutilation or self surgery?
When you hear mutilation, your mind conjures up people disfiguring themselves or self harming. However I do not class it suchly.
Thoughts anyone?
