Text is hard. The word inexplicably was intended to be used to suggest there's no clear value add, no increase in standard of living or health benefit or whatever to offset the health risk.
Lol @ "phrasing can be condescending", that's a silly level of pretend objectivity.
Wrt to "feeling different", thats what every body mod enthusiast I've ever met or seen on TV said their reason is.
As far as my opinion? There's nothing wrong with it. But I wouldn't hire them for any potentially customer facing roles.
- vertex-four 8y ago> no increase in standard of living or health benefit Many people use body modification to feel ownership and control over their bodies, or to essentially make a part of their identity physical. This no doubt has mental health benefits - my own piercings help me in feeling control over myself in a society that seeks to take that away from me.
