Imperfection Work Sheet Pedagoger: Nina Setterberg och Teresa Romano Snuggle with Pam Imperfection Work sheet A. Did you know? The French artist ORLAN (real name Mireille Suzanne Francette Porte) has dedicated several years of her life to undergoing plastic surgery in the name of art. The art project is called “the Reincarnation of Sainte-Orlan” and started out in the 1990’s. During this long-term project, Orlan has put herself under the knife, filming her surgeries, often broadcasting them live, in order to transform her face into a face with the beauty ideals of male artists throughout history. Once all the surgery is complete, Orlan will have the chin of Botticelli’s Venus, the lips of François Boucher’s Europa, the eyes of Diana from a 16th century French painting and the forehead of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa. Orlan chose the beauty ideals listed above on account of the stories told around the women and not based on their beauty alone. What do you think of the result? before after B.

Attitudes Beauty ideals in the world Long Neck The Kayan Lahwi tribe, also known as Padaung, is a Tibeto-Burman minority group who live today in Burma and around the Thai-Burmese border in Northern Thailand. Many Kayans fled to Thailand in the 80’s and 90’s because of conflicts with the military regime in Burma. Today, people of the Kayan tribes in Thailand are a tourist attraction because of their spectacular looks. Women of the Kayan Lahwi tribe wear brass rings around their necks. This is why they are sometimes referred to as Long Neck Karen. There are different explanations to why they wear neck rings, one of them being that it is a beauty ideal within their tribe to have a long, slender neck. The brass coils are put on little by little from early childhood and are usually kept on for life. Many young women of the Kayan Lahwi have stopped using neck rings because they feel exploited as tourist attractions and because they feel restricted by their tradition. Others choose to keep them on since they do not want to turn their backs on a long tradition. A common myth about these women is that if they take off their neck rings they would suffocate since the neck would not stay upright, but that is not true. http://www.ethnikka.org/2011/02/kayan-lahwi-of-burma.html Lotus Feet Foot binding in order to shape the foot into resembling the petal of the lotus flower was practised in China for centuries before being banned in 1912. Most women stopped binding their feet at that time, but a few continued. Today there are very few women left with lotus feet. In 2007, a 97-year old woman named Zhang, was interviewed for Reuters as one of very few survivors. This is what she told the journalist: "I remember the pain very well. It hurt so much that I freed my feet at night in secret and rubbed them. When my parents found out, they spanked me and told me not to do it again. Afterwards, they stitched the bandage together so I could not unwind it any more." For Zhang, foot binding has been very painful as she had to break the arch of her foot to bring toes and heels close to each other. Foot binding made her crippled and she could not work in the fields or go for long walks. Here you can see an X-ray photo of lotus feet: http://www.hsl.virginia.edu/historical/reflections/winter2008/images/foot_xray.jpg Lip Plates The use of wooden or clay lip plates is widely spread in communities in Africa, South America and in northern Canada. They are, most often, worn by women but there are examples of men wearing them as well. There are different reasons why lip plates are worn, one of them being to mark a person’s journey from young age to adulthood. This is called Rite of Passage. In Ethiopia, in the Mursi and Suri communities, there is a tradition to cut a girl’s lower lip before she marries in order to fit in a lip plate. The hole in the lip is held open by a plug until it heals and the skin is stretched gradually by inserting larger and larger plugs. Nowadays, some Mursi and Suri girls choose not to wear a lip plate. One of the reasons for leaving their traditions behind is that Suris and Mursis feel that they are being exploited as tourist attractions. Are you curious to learn more about the Suri people? Watch this clip: http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/the-suri-tribe-wearing-a-lip- plate/10412.html D. Express yourself with Old Nick Welcome to Old Nick’s language school. When it comes to talking about imperfections, it’s good to know the correct lingo, otherwise it’s easy to get confused. Here you will learn different words and expressions I’m sure you didn’t know beforehand. Words for pimple: zit blackhead whitehead acne blemish backne (acne on the back) chestne (acne on the chest) _____________________________________________ Words for different kinds of surgery: boob job (plastic surgery on the breasts, usually to enlarge them) nose job (plastic surgery on the nose, common among Hollywood stars) hooter neuter (breast reduction surgery) bod mods (any kind of surgery, short for body modifications) liposuction (plastic surgery to reduce fat) ___________________________________________________________________ Other useful words and phrases: tittoo (a tattoo located on the breast, drawing the attention to the “tits”) bra job (when you stuff your bra instead of using cosmetic surgery in order to get larger breasts) legitti-titties (real breasts that have not undergone any surgery) ___________________________________________________________________ E. Crossword F. Who are you? What would you do? Choose the best answer to the question below. A friend tells you that she wants to get a breast implant. What do you say to her? a) Oh, I have actually thought about that too. Your breasts are so strange, they look like a couple of bananas! You know what I think? You should put in an extra one too! b) Are you sure about that? To me you are just perfect the way you are. What made you want to do that? c) Are you crazy? Accept yourself instead of trying to change! You are: a) An extra banana? How silly is that? You are not only being mean, you are also burdening your friend with more anxieties and nonsense ideals. Stop it! b) This is what your friend needs to hear right now. You are taking your friend’s problem seriously by listening to her and asking her questions. You make her feel well by giving her compliments and at the same time you open up for her to tell you what the problem is by asking her where she got the idea from. She will probably feel comfortable talking to you and come to you for advice in the future too. c) You have a point but remember that accepting oneself is not always that easy. By simply telling your friend what she should do you are not being very supporting. If you answer her like this she may just withdraw. What she probably needs right now is someone who listens and tries to understand. G. Lyrics Look at the lyrics below. What is this song about really? How can you tell? Are there any key phrases? Were there words or phrases you didn’t know since before? Can you find metaphors or similes in it? “Born this way” by Lady Gaga It doesn't matter if you love him or capital H-I-M. Just put your paws up, 'cause you were born this way, baby My mama told me when I was young “We are all born superstars”. She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on in the glass of her boudoir “There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are” she said, “'cause He made you perfect, babe. So hold your head up, girl and you, you'll go far. Listen to me when I say: I'm beautiful in my way, 'cause God makes no mistakes. I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way. Don't hide yourself in regret. Just love yourself and you're set. I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way, born this way. Ooh, there ain't no other way, baby, I was born this way.

  • Children, Death, and the Dead: the Mebengokré-Xikrin Case
    Horiz. antropol. vol.5 no.se Porto Alegre 2011 Children, death, and the dead: the Mebengokré-Xikrin case Clarice Cohn 1 ABSTRACT This article approaches the relations children entertain with the dead, as well as with their own death risk, among the Mebenkogré-Xikrin, an indigenous Jê-speaking Indigenous group living in the North of Brazil. These themes are developed by analyzing the fabrication of the body, the formation of the self and the person, and the relations with the dead, with a special focus on children. Mebengokré-Xikrin notions of childhood are therefore discussed in an innovative manner through the formation of the self and the child’s relations with the cosmos and the dead, by looking at the eventuality of caputre by the spirits of the dead, their adoption in the after-life, the mourning of children, their bodily adornments and painting, how they should be taken care of in life in order to prevent death, and their bodies and social interactions. RESUMO Este texto analisa a relação das crianças com os mortos, e o risco de sua própria morte, para os Mebengokré-Xikrin, grupo indígena do Norte do Brasil falante de uma língua jê. Desenvolve-se o tema a partir da análise da fabricação do corpo e da pessoa e da relação com os mortos, com especial atenção às crianças. Assim, a formação da pessoa e a relação das crianças com o cosmos e os mortos - seu risco de serem capturadas pelos espíritos dos mortos, sua adoção post mortem , sua 1 Social Sciences Department, Graduate Program on Social Anthropology, Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), São Carlos, Brazil.

Compared to occlusal dental wear, labial/buccal abrasion is seldom documented in prehistoric groups. This type of wear occurs in some ethnographic-present and living populations and leaves telltale facets on non-occlusal vestibular surfaces associated with labrets. Methods and materials. For detailed macroscopic, microscopic (binocular and SEM) and thin- sectioned analysis we focused on the early Neolithic site of Mehrgarh in Pakistan where labial/buccal wear is found in mostly older adult males. We studied 215 teeth from ten individuals from the site. From the literature and some personal observations, we review evidence from the Czech early Upper Paleolithic and many later sites in the Old and New Worlds. Results. For Mehrgarh macroscopic observations revealed numerous teeth with labial and buccal facets affecting nearly every Bull Int Assoc Paleodont.

    Lip-plates and the people who take photographs Uneasy encounters between Mursi and tourists in southern Ethiopia DAVID TURTON David Turton was formerly Reader in Forced Migration and Director of the Refugee Studies Centre at the University of Oxford. Before moving to Oxford he taught in the Department of Social Anthropology at the University of Manchester. His email is [email protected]. The Mursi live in the far southwest of Ethiopia, about 100 km north of the Kenyan border, in the valley of the River Omo. They number less than 10,000 and are one of the last groups in Africa amongst whom it is still the norm for women to wear large pottery or wooden ‘plates’ in their lower lips.1 The lip-plate has become the chief visible dis- tinguishing characteristic of the Mursi, in coffee-table books and travel articles in weekend newspapers (see Figs 1 and 2). It has also made them a prime attraction for tourists, as the following quotation from an article in a Fig.1. An article by James South African newspaper indicates.

  • The Ubangi Misnomer Leonard J
    CID-07378; No of Pages 3 Clinics in Dermatology (xxxx) xx,xxx Reflections on dermatology: past present and future Edited by Leonard J. Hoenig, MD The Ubangi misnomer Leonard J. Hoenig,MD⁎ Private Practice, Pembroke Pines, Florida, USA Abstract Lip plates are a form of body modification practiced today by several tribes in Africa and Amazo- nia. In 1930, the American people were introduced to lip plates in a most spectacular fashion, when the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus brought in 13 Congolese natives to star as the newest attraction in their sideshow. The Congolese women wore huge lip plates, a result of cultural lip piercing with progres- sive lip stretching by wooden pegs and plates. The Congolese exhibit was publicized throughout the country as the “Ubangi Savages,” a made-up name selected from an African map, because it had an exotic ring to it. This contribution tells the story of the Ubangi Savages and explains their practice of lip piercing and stretching. It also discusses how tissue expan- sion has been adapted for use in reconstructive surgery which, along with lip plates, is a way people strive to maintain and enhance the beauty of their bodies, whether for medical or cultural reasons. © 2019 Elsevier Inc.

Přebíráme proto zodpovědnost za tuto práci. V Kladně dne _____________________ Andrea Bradáčová _____________________ Kristina Kothanová 2 A) Část teoretická: V této části práce jsme se zaměřili na obecné informace o piercingu, jeho historii, typech, aplikaci, péči a možná rizika. Jako součást teoretické části je zahrnut i rozhovor s piercerem (odborník zabývající se aplikací piercingu). 1. Historie piercingu Jak si mnoho lidí myslí, piercing není novou módní vlnou, která přišla s punkem nebo módní revoltou v podobě propíchnutých pupíků. Stejně jako tetování má i piercing ve světě tisíciletou tradici – mezi dávnými kmeny a komunitami měl rituální a náboženský význam. Různě tvarované dřevěné, kostěné a později kovové kolíčky, tyčinky či kroužky poukazovaly např. na sociální postavení jejich nositele, někdy byly dokonce symbolem důležitých životních kroků – např. vstupu do dospělosti. Často měl piercing a akty s ním spojené význam i při náboženských ceremoniích. •Co je to bodypiercing Bodypiercing je činnost, při které se cizí tělísko (nejčastěji šperk z různých materiálů) zavádí do tkání na různých místech těla. Má dlouhou historii a spojuje se i se zrozením kultu piercingu. •Kde ve světě se piercing vyskytoval Afrika První zmínky o piercingu vůbec pocázejí již z doby kamenné.
