"See, I had this friend at school when I was eighteen who had developped this habit of pinching the skin of her cheeks between her fingernails until the skin broke. It wasn't major self-mutilation but she often had this little cuts on her face. One day I asked her about it, and she said, she could not stand the way people, men especially, were staring at her. So if she messed up her face, they wouldn't look at her so much."
