<\/a>by Doug Wilson from Blog and Mablog \u2013 No Baptismal Scar<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\nEditor\u2019s note: Doug Wilson says that the shame of abuse drives women get to tattoos, piercings and participate in cutting themselves. According to Doug because Jesus was pierced and cut on the cross you should not do any of those three things because you just need to \u2018come to Jesus\u2019. So much of this series Doug wrote on the aftermath of sexual abuse is just disgusting and wrong!<\/em><\/p>\n These coping mechanisms vary, but they all have something in common. A number of young women, especially young women whose abuse is not yet discovered, find (very temporary) relief in cutting themselves. Another related measure for many is getting tattooed, or various piercings. Given that this is now common enough to have become a fashion in its own right, we do not want to say that any young woman with tattoos or piercings must have been abused\u2014but going the other way there really is a significant correlation.<\/p>\n Enter the tattoo artist, who for a modest fee will make a permanent mark on your body in just the way you<\/em> request. He will put the tattoo where you want. He will inscribe what you want. He will use the colors you request, and the whole world will be able to read that statement, your<\/em> statement, for the rest of your life. The same goes for piercings. So take that<\/em>, world.<\/p>\n And most of the world will think exactly what you want them to. But some of the people you deal with will be shrewd enough to wonder something else. \u201cI wonder what his name is, and I wonder what he did.\u201d There will be a great temptation to resent such strangers assuming such things about it, especially<\/em> if they happen to get it right. It is simply a fact that many young women use this sort of thing as an attempt to regain control of their own bodies, and it is a method that is frequently visible to others.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n QUOTING QUIVERFULL is a regular feature of NLQ \u2013 we present the actual words of noted Quiverfull leaders, cultural enforcers and those that seek to keep women submitted to men and ask our readers: What do you think?
