Leaving aside the fact that you have no way of knowing my level of education, everyone is entitled to make their own choices. In fact, because I am extensively scarred from a childhood injury, I feel my body art erases some of the stigma and poor body image I feel. Permanent art to counteract permanent scars.

Maybe people with your level of education don’t read so easy – I said “…at least try something that makes you look better!”

If you modify your body to make it look better to everyone else, by all means go for it. If you tattoo ‘n swastika on your forehead don’t expect me to be nice.

Thanks Gina! I agree, men who can’t face a bit of blood wouldn’t last 5 seconds with a vomiting baby at 3am!

Rachel

You have the knack, of ever so eloquently, of putting all my thoughts down on paper! (Ether?!)

Another fabulous article – my husband loved being present at the birth of both my children. If anything, he loves me more. If some men find it off putting then what sort of men were they in the first place?!

Enjoy reading all your articles.

Kind Regards
Gina

Again, a different viewpoint, but I wouldn’t be so blatant about your bigotry and fear if I were you. I have brains and morals, thank you. I am a professional women and a grandmother, very normal in appearance. I absolutely support the right of people to enhance their own bodies the way they see fit. I’m sorry if someone’s children’s name makes you scream in the middle of the night–maybe a cup of warm milk before bed.

Are you telling me you don’t accept people who die their hair? Have rhinoplasty? Boob jobs? Braces? People, everywhere, enhance their appearance in some way. Just because you don’t like piercings or tattoos–, well, we don’t really care. Look the other way.

Oh come on! When you do have to do things to “modify your body”, at least try something that makes you look better!

Why do you need to do stuff that will make your kids scream in the middle of the night when they see you? Why try to look as ugly and dispicable as possible? This is stupid, it’s not normal, it’s not cute, it’s not just different – it’s dumb and it’s offensive to people with brains and morals.

People like this expect everybody else to “accept them the way they are”! How ridiculous is that? They couldn’t even accept themselves as they were, for goodness sake?

How true is this. Don’t think I will ever get over seeing shoeless people walking in the supermarket/Myer/David Jones………it’s just wrong.

Thanks for all your entertaining entries on life in Oz.
