BME: Body Modification Ezine

A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

Celebrating body modification culture since 1994.

  • Facial expressions say it all?

    I don’t know how Cere does it (best I can come up with other than NLP is quoting Wesley Snipes — always bet on black!), but Phoenixxx (who as a point of trivia has seen a lot more shaved female genitals than I have) got “Cere” (“the man, the legend”) tattooed on her wrist by Cindy Vega at Local Color Tattoo in Philadelphia… He seems quite pleased:

    I’m having a little more difficulty precisely assessing the meaning of her facial expression though? I am assuming it’s a joking shot, but it sure has that “oh my god… what did I just do to myself vibe” to it! Or maybe she’s thinking about the tattoo that Cere just did on Robin of what appears to be a fat chick in a party hat? Or maybe a duck? I don’t know.

  • Vagina Dentata Armpit Tattoo

    A few weeks ago I was visiting a friend and she was telling me about someone she knew that had teeth growing inside her genitals (or somewhere up inside, I can’t remember). Because I’m an unseparated conjoined twin, I assumed it was something along those lines but she explained that it was actually dermoid cysts that had become teeth… Anyway, it’s the current cover but I thought some people might get a kick out of a closer look at Muffe‘s vagina dentata armpit tattoo… I like that it has a hood piercing!

    Phil put this aside for me because he thought it was a cute tattoo I might want to post here. Now, I agree with him, it is a very cute little tattoo, but I think he pulled it aside because he’s into the shorts she’s wearing because they remind him of a girl he had a crush on in grade seven or something…

    The tattoo is by John at Chameleon in Boston.
