18-year-old Karim Boumjimar decided he had no use for his nipples and belly button, so naturally he had them illegally removed to make them into jewelry he plans to sell.
Uhhh, ok. This is seriously some Ed Gein/Buffalo Bill/Leatherface scary kind of shit to me.
I got rid of my nipples and I’m selling them. My belly button necklace is coming soon too :-) pic.twitter.com/9YmcgQ8xG5

I mean, I realize that they’re all pretty much completely useless to men, but I like having my nips. And my belly button, but that’s apparently not the case for Boumjimar. He says he was inspired to have his nipples and belly button illegally surgically removed by Leonardo DaVinci’s “Mona Lisa.” He told Dazed:
[The “Mona Lisa”] has no eyebrows or eyelashes. It’s really interesting how da Vinci meticulously paid attention to every single detail but chose not to give her eyebrows or the eyelashes.

How far would you go to be with the love of your life? The new World of Wonder-produced documentary Out of Iraq tells the story of two men who found love in war-torn Iraq. See the movie at LA Film Festival (get tickets now) or you can watch on Logo in June.
How far would you go to be with the love of your life? In 2003 in the midst of war, in a country where homosexuality is banned, two Iraqi men meet by chance and fall in love. Nayyef, a translator for the U.S. military, and Btoo, a soldier in the Iraqi army, face persecution—and possibly death—if they stay in their homeland. After obtaining a visa, Nayyef leaves his love behind, settling in Seattle with a determination to one day reunite with Btoo in a place where they can express their love freely and without fear.
Directors Eva Orner and Chris McKim tell the story of this audacious journey of love, sacrifice and courage with a heartwarming and energetic style.
–Cristhian Barron and Cooper Hopkins

A new US study suggests that men who ‘buff their bananas’ frequently are less likely to develop prostate cancer than their counterparts who don’t often ‘liquidate their assets.’
That’s right! Your favorite guilty pleasure may also be saving your life. A group of 32,000 men who were mostly caucasian were followed from 1992 to 2010, and between these years 4,000 of the participants were diagnosed with prostate cancer. They were all asked to fill out surveys about their sexual health and the frequency that they ‘scour the tower of power.’ The men were also asked to submit their medical records and lab tests.
The breakdown from Salon.com:
The leader of the study Jennifer Rider who did the study while attending the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston told the Associated Press:
While our findings should be confirmed in studies that evaluate the potential biological mechanisms underlying the observed associations, the results of our study suggest that ejaculation and safe sexual activity throughout adulthood could be a beneficial strategy for reducing the risk of prostate cancer.
She and her team found that the guys who ‘hone the cone’ at least 21 times per month in their 20s were 19% less likely to develop prostate cancer than those who ‘pull the bologna pony’ less than 7 times, and men in their 40s who often ‘pound the fence post’ were 22% less likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer.

The Guinness World Records has just named Scooter, a Siamese cat from Mansfield, Texas, as the oldest living cat in the world, and you’re never going to believe just how old he is!
Scooter is 30 years old! He was born on March 26, 1986 and takes the title from the previous holder, 26-year-0ld Corduroy from Sisters, Oregon. Scooter’s human Gail Floyd was there the day he was born, and credits his long life to his active lifestyle. He loves playing and is full of energy despite breaking his leg in 2014. Scooter has also travelled to 45 of the 50 states and often makes visits to the nursing home where Gail’s mother lives. He enjoys getting blow dried after a bath, and his favorite snack is chicken which he enjoys every other day.
Scooter has a few years to go before breaking the oldest cat ever’s record which is held by Crème Puff of Austin, TX, who lived to be 38-years-old!

Justin Bieber has been up to some intense antics this week—starting with a new face tattoo (which I actually think is kinda hot) and then feeding squirrels in a park while barefoot. Now, he took to Instagram to reply to some comments from people who were criticizing him and proclaimed that if you see him out and about, he will not take a photo with you.
He posted these blocks of text:
Apparently Justin is having a hard time keeping up with the demands of being one of the most famous pop stars on the planet. I’m not sure how I feel about this new policy of his, but I’m sure feeling like a “zoo animal” isn’t fun, and if it will keep the possibility of a breakdown at bay to contribute to his overall mental health, then us Beliebers should respect his feelings.
In other words, do you, JB.
