[11:57.69]Body Art
[11:59.71]Body art is the use of the human body as a form of self-expression.
[12:05.43]Tattooing and piercing are both forms of body art.
[12:09.69]And both have become more socially acceptable in the United States.
[12:14.80]Tattooing is the art of injecting colors into the skin to create designs.
[12:20.53]Piercing is putting holes in the body for wearing jewelry.
[12:25.15]Ancient societies used body art to represent many different things,
[12:30.36]including social position and religious beliefs.
[12:34.57]In the United States, tattoos were considered mostly for military men or laborers,
[12:40.79]or young people who disobeyed their parents.
[12:44.54]But in recent years, all kinds of people have gotten tattoos.
[12:49.13]Piercing used to be just for ears.
[12:52.61]But now other parts include lips, noses and eyebrows.
[12:57.27]Piercing and tattooing can involve serious risks, in addition to pain and bleeding.
[13:04.31]There is the risk of infection and the spread of disease
[13:08.46]if the artist is not careful about cleanliness.
