What do you think of performers/artists who do this? Is it bad media, is it setting a bad example to their fans who look up to them?

Does it REALLY make the "real" pains of your life go away?

Those are just some of the questions I would love to hear people's opinions/answers on.

It got me thinking as I was in the Dir en Grey thread.
We all know Kyo does that kind of thing on stage. or at least he used to, i dont know.
but could that REALLY be attractive?
is it really necessary for him to be disgusting like that?
well, maybe it was for him if the music isn't that great (but we're not here to discuss music)
I think it could affect young fans, they might go ahead and copy what he does, thinking it's cool, thinking it makes all the pain go away, or whatever.

but it's just retarded.
I think self inflicted pain is NEVER okay in any situation.
i think it's retarded.
not attractive in anyway, it's GROSS.

i dunno. give me opinions people =)

and i'm not "targeting" Kyo, so dont flame me, i was just using him as an example.

peace.

it all depends on the degree of extremity...kyo's brand of self mutilation is ok..but like burning yourself and all tht jazz like total annihilation like breaking bones or sliting throats and jazz is soo unnecessary...true younger people might copy it but thats where the parents should step in and say dont do tht its wrong...but thts not the subject..but anyway like i said to me it all depends on the extremity
