I will agree that the emo fad today has made it so that cutting makes you "cool".
It's not "stupid" that some people cut. Everyone thinks differently, so we all have a different view on the subject.

I used to cut because it took my mind of everything else. When I got angry, I couldn't break the things around me, so I took it out on myself.

As twin__cinema, not all of us can afford therapy to help us with our problems. I sure as hell can't. I had to learn how to control my anger by myself. Not the most efficient way, but I've managed to stop cutting myself.

To me, some people cut and it helps them mask whatever they're feeling inside. Kind of how many teens wear heavy make-up to hide their true beauty.

As for the emo kids who cut designs on themselves and think "I'm cool", then just let them think that. When they grow older, their scars are still gonna be there. They might regret it, but they should have thought about the consequences before the cut themselves. Then you can call them stupid all you want.

Cutting itself isn't stupid, but making it a fad is.

twin__cinema, you should calm down slightly, people are allowed to post their opinions here. If you don't like the way the think, then talk to them about it. Or, for the ignorant people in the world, IGNORE IT.
