rokhed00 Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 There's some right nutters out there. As a dame, I can say with great authority that being on the rag sucks. My Aunt Scarlet is visiting me right now, and the worst part about it is going to the bathroom and wiping away thick red chunks with toilet paper. Well, they’re usually red, but it’s towards the end of my period now so they’re more of a reddish black and have the consistency of snot. It’s every bit as appetizing as it sounds, I assure you. But that’s besides the point. The point is that while it can be argued that I am a little off in the head, there are some broads out there with so many screws loose that they think painting pictures with their menstrual blood is a good idea. And not just finger-painting on their bodies, oh no. I’m talking Bristol board, watercolor brushes, then crosshatching with black ink. And it’s not just a handful of chicks doing this, it’s a bustling Livejournal community with nearly 500 members. Before I discuss the drawings I feel I need to explain menstrual cups, one of which you can see in the photo below: Before menstrual cups were around women had to put something absorbent in or near their cooch, which soaked up all the blood. By comparison, menstrual cups are inserted and catch each little drop of blood, which stays there until the girl removes it and dumps it out. Well, some girls had the bright idea of using the collected blood to paint with, and the results are contained in this entry. Most of the time the paintings are drawings of awkward women or vulvas or flowers, like so: But sometimes drawing female imagery isn’t enough, and they feel the need to draw pop culture icons with their blood. I was horrified enough to find this community in the first place, so you can imagine my surprise when I saw my favorite Star Wars characters rendered in blood. Is that all? No, of course not! There’s also this heartwarming drawing of Matthew McConaughey: In a roundabout way I can comprehend drawing vulvas and pixies out of your own blood, it’s all very feminine and this could be a way of reclaiming womanhood or some new age retro hippie bullshit, but Matthew McConaughey? He doesn’t really strike me as a symbol of fertility and the Goddess element in all of us. But then again, neither does Megaman and they fucking painted him with their uterine linings, too! So by all means go to the blood_art community and watch a bunch of Boho and goth chicks paint shit with their cooters, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. And let it be known that I witnessed Rob coin the term “muff marinara” last night, so if the term takes off I can look all smug and say “Yeah, you know the term ‘muff marinara’? I KNOW THAT GUY!” and then everyone will want to touch me. Unless they read this entry and know about my snot-like black menses, in which case I guess they won’t! LINK REMOVED (see Ashley's post)
Guest Jordan Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Wow... thats not sick or anything. Shame you have to wait for a month to get your art supplies.
ShadowV7 Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Kinda weird, I really don't know what else to say...
Mike Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Umm.. Mods? Not sure the linked page there is gonna be very suitable for some of our younger members..
Nucleus Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Don't look now, its a Simpsons orgy! as for the painting... thats nasty!
Ramar Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 How deranged do you have to be to do that. That just disgusting.
mariosmentor Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Not just the method that disturbs me, but the impulse to paint star wars? Yoda, chewie and jabba with cute little ad-libs, obviously derranged.
Chuck Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 thats fucking disgusting im loving the porn on the side:heh:
Ashley Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 The subject matter is a bit on the borderline of what is acceptable or not, but for now I'll leave it. However, the adverts from the linked sites we would not allow people to post to. Granted you can't chose what a site's adverts are, but still. Thats the way it goes.
rokhed00 Posted March 10, 2007 Author Posted March 10, 2007 The subject matter is a bit on the borderline of what is acceptable or not I wouldn't say it's any worse than any of the thousands of wanking threads that have popped up over the years. Anyway, c&ped the article and pictures to make up for the link being removed, to be honest I didn't even notice the ads when I first saw it.

Eenuh Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Ewww. The opening paragraph was way too gross. Pfff, it's just blood. With stuff. I find certain bodily fluids (from men) to be a lot more disgusting. Also, the girl who painted those star wars picture did it to make fun of pictures people drew of fairies and goddesses and whatever. She posted in the comments, which of course you can't read right now...
Oxigen_Waste Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Although it may be a bit bizarre... this can actually be quite good, if taken in the right direction. ^^
Ashley Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 She posted in the comments, which of course you can't read right now... But if you really wanted to just PM Roky.
DCK Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 This is sickening. I'll be asexual for the coming three hours. Thank you so much.
The Bard Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 It's pretty neat I think. I mean, what else are you gonna do with the blood? And it's such a nice colour. I had a massive nosebleed a couple of months back that lasted the whole day, in the end I just got pissed off and started collecting the blood and drawing and writing with it. Managed to fill and ink cartridge with it worked for a while, then my pen got jammed :p.
DanielTimothy Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 I don't like the word period, never mind it in art form. Does that make me sexist?
Fierce_LiNk Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 I don't know why, but everytime I look at these pictures, I chuckle for a bit and then hold my stomach region, area, yeah. I don't even have a vagina, so where's the logic in that? I couldn't help but laugh at the star wars ones. Funny as hell.
Ramar Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Anyway, c&ped the article and pictures to make up for the link being removed, to be honest I didn't even notice the ads when I first saw it. Strangely enough I didn't notice the adds until I saw some woman with a huge schlong on her head and it made me laugh.
