What is wrong with a tribal mark? Is it not the same with Birth mark only it comes later?

Ms. Potato:

What is wrong with a tribal mark? Is it not the same with Birth mark only it comes later?

it is different. A tribal mark is put on the face of child with a blade, scaring that child's face for life.

a birth mark on the face could equally scar a person's face for life

what if the person has teeny weeny tribal marks?
would could you settle for that?
I await your answer pls

ahh, charley the man does not want any girl with tribal marks on their face.

It is his preference, just like some men do not like women who are taller than them or circumcised

I'd be so pissed at my parents if they gave me tribal marks. I'd never forgive them.

^^^

check your face very well oh
you might just have some tiny number 11's!!

I feel bad for the girl.

Man if a girl is fine and the only thing is she has small tribal marks, I think I could get past that.

I don't think people should do it to their kids anymore though in this day and age.

tribal marks I can take

tatoos?

now that is a big big turn off
and very scary too?


@ princek12

do you have any tatoos[color=#006600][/color]

Still, I dont see anything wrong with it. Its not even her choice to leave a tribal mark on her face. And is having a tribal mark even a crime? Common now. . . My bf has a tribal mark on his two cheeks too but he hasnt done anything wrong so I dont see it as a problem at all.

I really hope that this practice is outlawed. The picture here is the picture that closely approximates how the girl looked like. This is not her actual picture; I found this picture on google.

I do not have any tattoos. I am a pretty clean cut guy. I did some modeling in NY when I was younger, so I really did not care for any tattoos.

I still dont see anything wrong in tribal marks but if its your personal preferences than next time when you are ready to hit a girl, hit her in broad daylioht without make up on.

@princek12
wow
i was expecting to see some bear claw marks
just those
are you serious?
word of advice:
next time you go clubbing go with a flash light
so that you can see(in the dark) the girls'face
and don't drink so much
or better still meet the would bes  in broad day light
better of luck

Nah mate.

I have no marks on my face whatsoever. My face is clean as hell (no metro).

I bet you have those adidas marks dont you?

Man, that is so minor

If she is otherwise a dime piece, wth not? Barely noticeable

Worst case scenario, she spends some money on plastic surgery to fix it up

I wouldn't let a great girl go because of something minor like that.

Geez, Men and that no homo/metro comment. Wdf, pisses me off to the core. Did anyone accuse anyone of being metro or homo. Who cares. kmrct


The OP said he finds tribal marks unattractive, even if the girl was very pretty its a no no for him

@bloos_shed

NO dont have any marks
but have realised that some of the most beautiful nigerians are those with marks
i honestly think its a trivial issue,that its more important to get to know the inner person than the physical appearance

yes Im one of those!

Though I doubt it'd be that expensive to fix via plastic surgery.

She should probably get it done. Poor chick

In 2011 where the moist epidemic among black males has peaked, it is very necessary to reassure others that you're not homo/metro lol. Simple.

Call me a shallow b@$t@rd, but hey, I've never seen a dime with tribal marks on her face, not even the barcode-type marks that people say are barely noticeable. It just doesn't look right.

And I'm not one for inner beauty, since I never want to get maried or have kids so that's all irrelevant, I couldn't care less. The dumber she is, the better.

I don't know whether you can fix it via plastic surgery. I am assuming that if plastic surgery could remove the tribal marks, then more people with marks would have had it removed. Then maybe it is an expensive surgery.

Ooops
Didnt know that guys with this viewpoint still existed.Most men want ambition and smartness to be part of the characteristics
glad to meet you sir!

They can fix almost anything with plastic surgery. A guy I knew in college was born with a cleft palate, they fixed him up

If they can fix that, surely they can fix some minor scarring

Wouldn't know the price though. If that is what is preventing her from having relationships, she should seriously look into it

Oh please, the people that are frequently saying no Homo are the undercover hom[i]os[/i]exuals. It is their guilty conscience  causing them to always utter it.

Phrases from men who utter the word no homo to their mates:

"Dude, you have got a nice bum but no homo"
"Dude, damn your di[i]c[/i]k is big, no homo"
"Dude, you got something on your face, let me wipe it off" *takes hanky, dabs it in the mouth and then wipes* "No homo"
"Dude, I want you to f[i]u[/i]ck me, but no homo"

Yes, and there are plenty of us out there . Most of those men are just people who put up with nagging and other mess from their partners and just stay because they're weak.

Besides men who don't want to settle down and/or have children couldn't care less about "ambition and smartness".

damn kandikane is taking this seriously

Having a plastic surgery for tribal marks will just make it worse because they are deep incisions which cannot be lasered off so the only way  to  cover it up is by having skin grafts which will just be a weird multicolored face with the tones of skin.

I'm sorry but when I read this - I HURT INSIDE

Let me tell you why

Many people aren't forthright - they are so "politically correct" and so "etiquette proper" - that they will mask their feelings on REALLY IMPORTANT issues - which hurts because I DETEST IT sooo.

This scenario - a man misled by a "few marks" but goes ahead and has sex, spends the night(s) - and on and on til the break of more than one dawn.  She might have thought she "found the one."  To discover upon the end of a great weekend that she has been considered "a liar."

Come Monday - from a safe distance - the bomb is dropped by her Mr. Wonderful.  As a woman I would be enraged.  However, she sold herself cheap - she let a random stranger into her life too quickly w/no investigation/research.

Women:  I urge you to value yourself, who and what you are.  Don't sell yourself cheap.  If he waited for the 20 years before he even knew your name - he can wait some months so you can get to know each other - before you spread your beautiful legs.

No, don't try it, I'm not one of those people. And to be honest I've hardly heard seen anybody use no homo when saying the things you quoted, if so then only jokingly. If someone is hiding their sexuality they'd be much smarter than the example you used.

I don't know maybe it's different in Nigeria.
