I failed and missed the last page.

On a lighter topic, Internet Explorer users are dumb.

Well, I'm not a cutter myself, but I understand the appeal as a ********* (although not an extreme one. My pain tolerance isn't that high). There's a huge difference between hurting yourself and harming yourself. If done in an appropriate way, cutting will not be harmful. Most people do not know how to do it in the appropriate manner though, I will admit. I definitely don't support those doing it for the attention, that can definitely ***** with your friends and family and isn't cool. If you aren't going to explain to people that you cut yourself because you get off on it, then don't do it in places where they will see it.

Firefox ftw.



And no matter how bad I've felt, I never even thought of cutting myself. I don't think physical pain would distract me from emotional distress at all.
That said, if I feel awful I'll go drown myself in a fantasy world and in music, not necessarily better but at least it doesn't leave scars.

Angela sounds like hellspawn? You must not have heard Cerebral Bore or Gallhammer.




Thank you Rio for linking me the first one today




Edit: Maz, it's basically that when you're in physical pain you're not feeling the emotional pain since your body is going all "Hey, this **** hurts! Fix it! Really now, you're dying!"
And if that (rather ******) feeling is preferable over feeling the emotional distress, cutting yourself makes a twisted sort of sense.
It is, of course, also a very visible cry for help/attention.

That's why if you're smart and cutting yourself, you don't do it along a vein and you make sure you're using a sanitized knife/blade or whatever. Like the top of the thigh, against the flow of veins for example, would be a relatively safe/sane place to do it. That way if you do cut a vein or artery, it's just a small cut and it's easier to get the bleeding to stop.

You guys seem to be under the impression that the only reason someone would cut themselves is because they're depressed. Some people aren't depressed and just get off on the sensation. I like knife play up to a point (no pun intended). I have a very firm rule that I do not want skin to be broken, but if an accident occurs, it's not a huge deal. I just really enjoy the pressure and the scratching sensation. Sanitizing it with rubbing alcohol afterwards is just a bonus. But then again, I really like sting. =x

Yeah, I'm no ********* and I'm too nice to hurt someone even if they would want it.

Edit: And I was just discussing the ehole suicidal/depressive cutting thing, not really anything else.
Although I have to admit that I don't see any sort of attraction to cutting in a sexual environment either, spanking and bondage, sure. blood and gore, not so much.

I have a real problem with this......

Oh, I'm not judging. As long as it's done safely people can go right ahead with their fetishes whether they involve blood or whatever else you can think of. It's just not my thing.
I can understand age play though, even the extremest forms. I can see the attraction in the being taken care of/being safe kind of submissiveness of age play. Blood is something I don't see the attraction of at all.

I guess my issue with masochism is that I'm a giver, not a taker. Which I guess would lead to sadism.

Baseketball was a funny movie. Also had this cover.

From what I gathered the cutting is a sex thing. Not that that'll help your discomfort in any way.
