Tribal Marks by RedHotChic(f): 8:37am On Jun 16, 2008
Do you have any? If yes, do you like it or did you just accept it because you have no option? Do you also think that parents should let their children grow and make the decisions themselves? Will you give your children any tribal mark no matter how tiny?

Reason am asking: I've got a female friend here from Ibadan that has one. Her own is so pronounced and enveloped her beauty and it puts her down. She hates her parents because of that and I've suggested she go for plastic surgery because it's affecting her in the labour market in NY. For some reason, corporate America discriminates against tribal marks silently.

Re: Tribal Marks by shuppie(f): 10:30pm On Jun 30, 2008
the significance of tribal marks in the old days was to be able to recognise people of the same tribe, and family, but there is no need for it anymore now,
