...And where's my prosthetic wiener???I want a new knee and some dental implants!
Yes, and may I say that such scholarly rigor in TB discussions is sadly lacking?

Aren't you already getting an offer every day in your e-mail?
But in all honesty and seriousness, I met a chick at a gig who worked in the business of prosthetic genetilia and doing the surgeries. She was hot, but the conversations were very uncomfortable.
...And where's my prosthetic wiener???
If there were an effective surgery, we'd all look like we were smugglin' a Duraflame log.

X-ray vision would be cool too, as long as I had the ability to turn it off. If I saw everybody naked, such as my elderly neighbors and overweight coworkers, I'm sure I'd puke in my mouth a little bit everyday.

Mammogram is down but I'm working manually
I tried to veer off towards breasts and you guys brought it back to assless chaps and project add-a-weener.
Sad, just a sad day.

But dammit I'm a know-it-all kid and I should be able to add a 2 foot weener to my forehead and people should accept me!!!!!

A prosthetic peenie may wind up being more useful than a tattoo. This is important stuff here.
But breasts are probably more useful than a tattoo, too.
Yeah,I couldnt think of anything new to say,pro or con, about body modifications that hasn't been stated in numerous other TB threads.
It's like deja vu all over again.
I've been thinking of getting a nipple reduction. My nipples are just a tad too large

Just eat some more Krisy Cremes to get your man boobs to grow. It's more about proportion.
It's all relative. Just post the kserg belly pic on your bathroom mirror and you will realize you were badly misinformed.
LOL!!!
...and might as well.....
what's the best prosthetic weener for metal?!
Not sure, but Id bet its match has some big bottom end.
I'm on my phone, so I can't even begin to respond to everything here. I will say i'm thrilled with the response this thread has had. Let's keep it civil.
I think body modification in most forms is an art, and I respect it as such. I think my girlfriend has beautiful skin/body, and that's why it upsets me to think she wants to change it and ink over it.
To clarify some things: she has 6 ear rings, 4 of them are 14 gauge, and she has a pair of size 6 gauges, a standard lip piercing, and I think a 10 or 12 gauge belly button piercing. She's had parental consent for that, but isn't allowed to go larger gauges until she's 18. To be honest, there's a history of mental health problem s that she's being treated for, but I think her mom has the same anxiety and depression and deals with it by being in constant denial that something may be wrong. She's being treated (150 mg of Xanax) but I don't think it's an effective treatment and still causing problems. What i'm trying to get to is that she has anxiety that translates to weird things including very low self-esteem. I often wonder if some of the modification is a result of that low self-esteem, but she has a history of self mutilation that thankfully is over. I'm worried some of it is an extension of that.
For those of you with piercings, how addicting are they? She has size 6 gauges and swears they need to be bigger. It worries me that she almost seems compelled to do it, even if it is for aesthetic reasons.
Some of the things she's talked to me about
Scarring is one she's interested in and involves cutting or irritating the skin to get it to scar in a tattoo like manner. Interesting, but I hate the thought of her doing that to her skin. And the idea that a large, patterned mass of pink damaged flesh is more appealing to her than yourself.
A corset is nothing she would get permanently, but it's apparently fairly common for people to get a corset piercing done for a single photoshoot or public appearance or whatever. I just find it weird to want to pierce youself 40+ times and then remove the piercings... but since it doesn't even leave a scar if done right, it doesn't bother me. I actually think they look really good on certain body types.
Suspension involves being pierced and then inserting rings into your body and lifting you up from the rings. She wants to do it with meat hooks instead, and that thought literally makes me nauseous. She's shown me pictures, and the amount of blood on the ground is atrocious. The people who do it say they do it for the adrenaline rush of feeling like you're floating... what's wrong with the indoor skydiving areas where you can actually float? does the meathook make the experience?
Still wanna hear more opinions and not naysayers who come in and say "it looks stupid" and then leave.
