    “I Needed to Remind Myself Never to Go Back to That Dark of A

    “I needed to remind myself never to go back to that dark of a place:” Queer community members in the Flint Hills region of Kansas communicating challenges of/with mental health through body art and non-surgical body modifications by Jacquelyn Ann Mattson B.S., Kansas State University, 2016 B.S., Kansas State University, 2016 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS Department of Communication Studies College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2019 Approved by: Major Professor Timothy J. Shaffer, Ph.D. Copyright © Jacquelyn Ann Mattson 2019 Abstract This thesis explores experiences of mental health among some queer community members in the Flint Hills region of Kansas. This research specifically investigates how the queer community in the Flint Hills region of Kansas, i.e. anyone who identifies with a marginalized sexuality and/or gender identity, communicates their experiences with mental health through their pieces of body art and/or non-surgical body modifications, which are defined as tattoos, piercings, scarification, and intentional branding, to themselves and others. The Flint Hills region of Kansas is defined as the cities of Manhattan, Junction City, Fort Riley, Riley, Wamego, Ogden, and Abilene. Centered within multiple theoretical frameworks from critical and communication studies disciplines, this thesis examines the stories and experiences behind the imagery and adaptations to some of the queer bodies, in this specific location, as it communicates experiences with mental health. Body art/non- surgical body modifications are a road map to the traumas we have experienced; the scars show our resilience.

Kappeler Korreferent: Henning Gibbons Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 31.10.2007 CONTENTS GENERAL INTRODUCTION 1 CHAPTER 1 9 Menschlicher Körperschmuck aus evolutionärer Perspektive – Diversität und Funktionen von Tätowierungen, Piercings und Skarifizierungen CHAPTER 2 24 Modifying the body – motivations for getting tattooed and pierced CHAPTER 3 34 Visual attention to plain and ornamented human bodies: An eye-tracking study CHAPTER 4 49 Differences in personality characteristics between body-modified and non- modified individuals: Associations with individual personality traits and their possible evolutionary implications CHAPTER 5 74 Human body modification: testing the signaling quality of tattoos CHAPTER 6 84 Differences in personality attributions towards tattooed and non-tattooed virtual human characters CONCLUSIONS 94 SUMMARY 96 ZUSAMMENFASSUNG 97 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 98 REFERENCES 99 1 GENERAL INTRODUCTION Mate choice and competition for mates are the two main mechanisms of sexual selection (Andersson, 1994; Bateman, 1948; Darwin, 1871). Both derive from an asymmetry in parental investment (Trivers, 1972). Considering classic sex roles, females are the limiting resource due to a lower reproductive potential caused by anisogamy, so that males compete for access to choosy females (Trivers, 1972; Kokko & Monaghan, 2001). However, female competition and male mate choice have been observed as well (Drickamer, Gowaty & Holmes, 2000; Moore, Gowaty; Wallin & Moore, 2001; Gowaty, 2004). Sexual selection operates on traits that influence reproductive success (Clutton-Brock, 2004; Darwin, 1871), including visual or acoustic signals displaying information about the bearers’ condition (Fisher, 1930; Grafen, 1990; Kokko, Brooks, McNamara & Houston, 2002; Zuk, 1991).
