She has lipodystrophy, a rare genetic condition involving the loss of fatty tissue, resulting in the wrinkled skin that makes her look much older than she really is.

“It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.” – Neil Armstrong (1930-2012)

Greetings : )
Why women and men (society in general) still pre-judge people with body art. girls especially?
I am a 26 year old F, have got 11 tattoos, lots of which can not be seen on my daily travels. Five To Six during the summer are pretty much constantly on display. I don't strive for notice and i also have a loving boyfriend Without Any TATTOOS .I get the impression that numerous people think that tattooed people are blind, as we get stared at, even when we return a glance people keep on staring. When will society change?
