General opinions on body modifications

"My personal opinion is that any sort of facial piercing is just unattractive..."

"I think people with dyed hair look cooler..."

"If the person had a car crash or was burned in fire, they might have cosmetic surgery to improve their appearence."

"I personally love them; it takes time to stretch and to see people with good looking stretchers. It shows a sign of patience."
