Blog On Tattoos


When we first had our lecture on tattoos, I first thought to myself about the regrets of tattoos. Being a teenager I know a few people who have tattoos, and they always say to me that they dont regret them. But more of the older people I know have told me that they regret having tattoos. To me i think that tattoos are ok and fine, but only if they mean something to you. If you was to get a tattoo that you thought looked cool, it might come down to just wanting to fit in, or show off.
Because who knows wether your going to like this tattoo when its on your skin, or when your older. The body changes in many ways no matter where the tattoo is. Its another way of showing a different personality. If the tattoo means something to you, then it means something to you, it has a reason to be on your body as it is some part of your appearance and background.
looking at the website at the bottom of this blog is a reply to an online blog about wether people regret there tattoos. Its a male response website so most of the people have said that they dont regret there tattoos. This could mean that the audience for the website is young, or these men jus dont want to seem any less of a man saying that they regret the tattoos on there skin. Its another way of showing a more alpha male type of yourself. To show that you can take the pain of having tattoos. Overall i do think that tattoos are ok on reflection to what they mean to you, where as some tattoos can seem pointless and only a spir of the moment thing.

Being Bad Blog


When we were looking at the subject of bad cinema, i wanted to bring up the movie elephant in the conversation, but didn't particularly have a chance. I wanted to bring this up in the argument that movies of bad nature, are good for everyone. When films come out that that some people find offensive, they don't realise that its meant to be offensive and is created to open peoples eyes.
Elephant is the story based on true events that happened in the columbine massacre. Where students took guns to school and shot other pupils. The way this film is shown, is that it introduces all the characters all differently for most of the film, and then the shooting begins. this film had been made to show people just how sick and twisted some people can be, and shows what small things and bullying can do to some people. there are many films out there that portray accross bad things that happen in real life that most people try to block out and ignore. These kinds of films are there to show people that it is real events and can happen, and people need to stop ignoring true events that can occur.

Blog On Masturbation


When it comes to masturbation, i feel that is just a matter of embarrassment. The way people react to masturbation is always the same as a laughable action. The main reason for this is that it involves the genetalia, and we always keep those things private.
Now though i think that people are becoming more and more confident about talking about sex because it is all over the tv and internet these days. Making people more active with sexual contact.
I think the only thing that makes masturbation a egdy subject for some people is in the way they ddo it. Some use pornography and that is a thing that again will make it a subject under context.
As long as there is pornography, some people are going to see masturbation wrong in the way in which people go about it. This meaning that no matter what, some people will not agree with masturbation.
