Herd Profile: Not pierced, no tattoos
For pets beautifully unadorned by tattoos and body modification*. Once tattoos and piercing were a proud symbol of societies' outliers: sailors (pirates!), bikers, convicts, prostitutes, etc. They inspired fear and anxiety in the middle class. The practice is now so widespread it has been embraced and disarmed by those that once despised it, forcing the 'pushing of boundaries' of the subculture to include amputation of limbs, and mutilation and removal (and in some cases cannibalism) of genitalia. *Pierced earlobes are accepted as they are so conventional now they are unconventional! |
