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.

    So I recently asked what people wanted to see on ModBlog, and the above title is what I was told. Let’s get started on that with this tattoo by JR at HellCat Tattoo in West Palm Beach, FL, done on Turps211. You’ll also notice that there are some ads on ModBlog right now. Sorry to have to add them, but it’s become a financial reality — and big thanks to our sponsor (check them out and sign up for a free membership), and a big old “get the hell out of the conservative dark ages” to Google and all the other online ad agencies that refuse to deal with BME.

    For now the ad is just on the front page, but assuming it goes OK I’ll put it on subpages as well, but I’ll keep it as discrete as possible. Oh, and if anyone from an advertising agency is reading this, feel free to contact us with a proposal ([email protected] is who you’d write).

  • Piercings as Tattoos?

    Here’s a couple of tattoos of piercings, something that I get more often that you’d think. You may remember my old lecture on why corset piercings might not be the greatest idea… With that in mind I got a big kick out of Juli’s tattoo of a corset piercing. Also vaguely in the same theme is Adam’s heart by Paul at Fat Kats in Ocala, Florida.

  • I voted… for BEEF!

    When Phil and I first saw this tattoo, it was the day after the Canadian election, so we were all excited that someone had gotten a “voter” tattoo. Truth of the matter, the symbol in this case actually stands for “USDA approved grade A meat” (done by The Hole Experience in Baton Rouge, LA).

    The high-quality meat mark on the ass is actually not that uncommon — here’s another variation, on Kinderfeld69 who I believe is very proud of his meat. The tattoo is by Chip Beam at Artifex in Vestal, NY.

    In another entry I should tell you the story of the first guy I knew with a similar piece (a “100% beef” brand)… He’s now in prison for being a child rapist — and I am so sure he deeply regrets his decision!

    For those of you who want more (of the subject matter, not the tattoo), check out the Greg Kucera Gallery, or google it. The tattoo is by Magnus Skogs of Red Hot Tattoo in Mora, Sweden.

    Mostly this is funny in a highschool kind of way because of the caption it was sent with: “Give me head until I’m dead.” I don’t know how long that would actually take, but I’m a patient guy.
