Discrimination.

This word derives its power not from the existence of making choices which treat certain individuals preferentially, but instead from the faulty decision making process that leads to that treatment. When a person discriminates, they simply choose, which is unoffensive on its face. When a person is being discriminatory (as a pejorative) that person is creating a disadvantage in a group of people due to mistakes in their understanding of that group. The cumulative results of discrimination do harm and create conflicts where there needn't be any.

As a result, discriminating for the right reasons is a fantastic behavior to adopt. Please make sure you do exactly that, discriminating based on quality, and never on surface features.

Aw..I guess youtube ate my comment :(

I just wanted to say that this video was well done.

I had a tongue ring, and I wasn't able to get a job at Disney because of it. I also was told by a professor that once I "grow up," I wouldn't want or need it anymore.

I wanted to keep it, and I was looking forward to graduating with my doctorate, and having my tongue sticking out while I hold my degree. However, the tongue ring was cracking my teeth, so I took it out.

The comment is still there. I can erase one if you want. :-) Thank you for sharing, Starshine. It was probably a good choice to take it out, for your teeth, but it is a shame not to have that picture with your doctorate. That'd be precious.

You can't intellectualize self-mutilation. What you've done to your face (if real) is an expression of low self-esteem and a desire to be noticed at any cost. No prejudice. No government plot.

[tattootomorrow]

It isn't mutilation, silly whiner. I don't need to be noticed by negative critics who can't appreciate art like yourself.

No one is speaking about a government plot either. It's like you can't speak my language.

The tatt is great man.... WILD. I think the videos of mine being done are under Tat2Joe. I love having a fucked up face.... whether people discriminate or not..... i find it bonds strangers though through differences

[tattootomorrow]

Interesting. I liked the videos I caught of yours.  Thanks.

[Kindl3y]

if you were as clever as you are trying to make out, you wouldn't of had a load of shit tattooed on your face bro

[SmashBabington]

@TattooDesignArts What?? I dont think I could've told the doctor to cut my foreskin off the second I was born!! Therefor, not self mutilation!!!

[BigEricHunt]

@TattooDesignArts  This isn't a video about "trying to be accepted in society", moron. He wasn't born with a clown face. He did it for attention. And why are you giving creedence to cultures who practice FGM?

[TattooDesignArts]

@BigEricHunt

you seem to have real emotional problems. why dont you sit in a corner and calm down. do u just find peoples videos about trying to be accepted in society and write hateful things on them? i know a few ADULTS who got circumsized as adults so how is that child abuse? also liposuction and getting your ears pierces are also socially acceptable forms of alteration. these are things you will find in every culture, so people should not be discriminated against for their own choices.

[BigEricHunt]

@TattooDesignArts Wrong, stupid. Circumcision isn't self-mutilation. It's child abuse. And I do have a problem with it. (See my top rated comment on "Female Genital Mutilation" by mwareham1 that I posted 5 months ago).

How can you compare an idiot who's fucked up his face through choice vs. an 8-year old girl who has forcibly had her clitoris removed?

[TattooDesignArts]

@AntonBorealis

you know what is self mutilation? circumcision. and im sure you have no problem with that.

[findlaymcarthur]

you think too much and talk too much...like attention or something.... prick!

[Layzie07]

most i do to rep something is do an eyebrow slit or 2 which is not extreme and can be covered up or played like it's a scar but the second you tatt ur face up u let it be known that you'll never have a professional job

[YOMAMMAISABITCH]

@tattootomorrow look dude you are obviously smart and well spoken, and I am a fan of tattoos and have alot myself, but I honestly wanna know what your reasons for the face tatt were and why you didnt get someone better to do it?

[EmergentProperties]

what were you thinking? that looks terrible, and not artistic at all. sorry but nomatter what you have to say no one's going to take you seriously looking like that
