Here comes Warren with his right-wing persona again. Are we a Trump supporter again?
Of curse!
I hugged him last night.

I’m not surprised to see FagSissy defend these freaks since they are part of his tribe that he would befriend and perhaps even date a mental case face manipulator.
Don't you dare take my side here. You're an even bigger idiot. Don't undermine my case, bro.

OK troll.
Actually I looked it up and Fugazi is right.
It’s not a mental disorder.
Meaning you’re the moron.
Not him.
How’s that for not taking your side?
You’re welcome.

Thank you, I really do appreciate it.
Also, thanks for admitting you open your mouth without having really checked what you actually think about an issue.

If say it's the opposite. He completely confirmed his thinking because it wasn't in line with his "experts". -

You're an idiot for consistently having stupid views. Lilith has shown herself to be intelligent.
That said, it is pretty stupid to dismiss mental illness. What is it when a creature mutilates themselves, if not a mental problem?

The intent matters. Body modifiers are perfectly aware of what they are doing to themselves. They understand how it looks to other people. They aren't deluded into thinking it's something it isn't.
It's not like the women who get plastic surgery who think they are making themselves more attractive when they are actually turning themselves into uncanny beasts. Now THAT'S mental illness.

One is delusional about what they are doing to themselves and the other isn't.
Yet they're doing exactly the same thing. How are you able to declare one of them mentally ill but not the other?
Woke doctrine?

Because intent matters. They aren't doing the exact same thing at all. Body augmentation for the purpose of artistic expression is not the same as body augmentation to appear younger. Body augmentation to appear younger doesn't work, yet people do it anyway. That's mental illness, like people who think they can change their gender by cutting their penis off.

I suppose people engage in body modification for a myriad of reasons.
So the question becomes, "Is the desire to modify one's own natural body a sign of mental disease?"

Depends on intent and whether they understand the consequences. Mentally ill people usually have misguided reasons for their actions because they don't understand the consequences.

What if they live in a world of zero consequences when they get the body modification? In fact, what if the people in that world give them likes and support when they modify themselves?
Generally, that sort of thing is unsustainable. That's normally how it goes for people who get by with their looks and no other appreciable skills.
How would you interpret their reasons for actions in that perspective. That's generally the perspective of someone more experienced. That wouldn't necessarily be the experience of a young person getting the procedures. The person getting themselves modified would probably need to get the modification and then live with it for a while to understand this completely at that point.
But would it be mental illness? I personally think they were just brainwashed a bit. But at what point would we see the brainwashing as mentally illness? At what point is it hurting them? They are benefiting from it financially in the short term. However, if they were say, part of some religion that takes a long view of something like this, it might be frowned upon.

Maybe that's what happens when you worship money instead of what nature or god intended

because they don't understand the consequences.
That's a bit of a non-specific cop out. Who really understands the consequences of their actions? Generally immature or inexperienced people. Why do some immature people make these types of decisions and many don't?
It has been said that if you hang out with crazy people in the asylum, it's only a matter of time before you become crazy yourself.
I would imagine a schizophrenic's mind to look a lot like the online world. Are the mind's of those who haven't been tested, those haven't yet crystalized their views of the world and their place in it, more susceptible to "mental illness"? -

It should probably be best discussed on a case-by-case basis.
Body modification is rather permanent. Perhaps the person being modified doesn't see it that way or even think about that. They could be young and inexperienced.
Is being young and inexperienced a sign of mental illness? People modify themselves from the time they are born, whether it's their behaviour or their appearance (like their hair), at what point does once decide it's mental illness? Who decides?
I would agree that it's a slippery slope, just like everything else in this world of too many options.
At least we don't have to guess as much as to what's going on or not going on internally with these people.
