Thin Privilege is People finding your Tattoos and Piercings Sexy So something Ive noticed online and in my interactions is the way people with body mods get treated differently when they are obese versus when they are thin, average, or fit. With tumblerinas, the dyed hair is always messily done and looks dirty, their piercings always seem out of place, and their tattoos are stretched or grossly affected by their skin quality. Because of this people find these body mods abhorrent or disgusting on hamplanets. And on top of this, they all seem to use these body mods for attention or to be the most noticeable person in the room. But take instead the thin, fit, or average people with the same body mods. Of course for some it just not a attractive thing, but ignoring those people, the not overweight crowd's body mods are seen as enhancements, or even just not minimizing the attractiveness of the person. The tattoos when quality work fit the body well and highlight the structure of the tattooed persons body. Piercings don't look as out of place and sometimes even add a hint of attractive asymmetry or symmetry to a person. And dyed hair tends to look more professional quality and more like personal expression instead of a cry for attention. I had a morbidly obese friend for a short while and found her piercings and tatts disgusting and realized they drew my eye to her fatty body almost forcing me to notice her. And I am normally one to love admiring body mods on men and women alike. And most men I spoke to who met her seemed to describe her body mods as gross or weird.  I on the other hand am fit and fairly modded, five tatts and 6 piercings, and I have very very rarely had men say anything other than sexy when they see my mods. In fact the only time I can remember a guy or girl telling me they don't like my tatts, was when they followed it with, "body modifications just are not my thing." I don't know if anyone else has noticed this either in daily life or online.
