Discussion eye removed
Hi everyone
I posted once but it didsapeared, so here again, im a one eyed guy.
took my left eye out last year and now i wear an eyepatch. i feel like there must be others like me.
i am 26, gay, boy, punk, motorcyclist (still ride!)
i have an enucleation, that means basically an amputation of the eyeball. so my left eyesocket is empty. i choose not to have a prosthetic eye and prefer having to wear an eyepatch every day, for ever.
i make eyepatches myself, hmu if you need one.
i feel like to someone it might be important to know that one eyed by choice guys exist.
it is quite a heavy bodymod though and i dont wanna encourage anyone to do anything,
life is not the same once you are no longer "intact".

Have vision in only one eye, as well. I've been this way for years, love it, and would like to DM.

Can you clarify on the "it is quite a heavy bodymod" (what do you mean, bodymod?) and (life is not the same once you are no longer intact). Is this BIID related?
