Body art and piercings are controversial to this day because they cause problems in one's career, life and cause diseases which seem very terrible to me . In 1991, a man named East Buc, from over "4,000 BC," told us that tattoos had actually been around since the beginning of the world. In ancient times, getting a tattoo was painful and could even lead to death for them. It was used to mark slaves to show others that they were slaves during "World War II". Then came tribes called Aztecs and Mayans. For them, a tongue piercing was done to draw blood to appreciate their god and to create a passage for their god. This meant serving their religious purpose. Africans then had their lips pierced and this still happens today. Many people used body modification and so-called art (tattoos) to show what their economy, culture and emotions were like. This was done in the past for ornaments on the body. They even made it fashionable, like all famous people, thinking it's good, but not caring about the danger it poses to health. People did this because their lives were miserable, but they really don't need to show such feelings that they should see therapists instead of marking something that never goes away. They should think twice before doing something crazy. Even medical professionals think it's extremely bad. For what? as this could damage your blood supply. Even if you have it in small places like your earlobes, your skin may fall off. This can contaminate your blood, causing you to have venom inside you and not being able to donate it to people who really need it.

A lady had a very serious overdose accident. Doctors had to put a tube down his throat, but they had some problems. For what? she had a 1-inch-long metal on her tongue when the doctor told her, “If you have to tear her tongue out, do it.” To me, people just want to make life so difficult because they want something very angelic but it seems to me that they are addicted to poking holes in them. People should take care of their health because think of the people who love you, they would be without you. I miss you so much it would hurt them. Not all the things you see are rich. My opinion, next to the research I have done, we are not animals to write on your body or tear our flesh, we are human beings and our body must be healthy for a long life and truly meant to to be cherished..
