Music

I'll talk about music, which is universal, and there is something for everyone.
I will expose on an unconventional "group".

Sopor Aeternus & the Ensemble of Shadows
Is a darkwave musical project based in Frankfurt, founded in 1989 by Anna-Varney Cantodea. Since the project's beginnings, Anna-Varney's work has garnered a cult following, notorious for its extremely personalized, melancholic and pessimistic nature, drawing on a number of different musical and visual styles. 

The Vocalist "Anna Varney" was born as a man, but she says being asexual.
Anna  lives in catacombs in extreme solitude, nobody knows where she lives, her real name is unknown and even not give presentations or interviews for humans. 
and the Ensamble of Shadows is her group, they  help to compose her songs.

Sopor Aeternus is a very popular group in the underground gender and especially in Europe.

Also some people say it's just marketing.

Bound feet

While respecting other cultures is good, this is one ‘beauty feature’ that we can be glad has died out. In China, to achieve the effect of tiny feet, the bones were broken before binding, thus causing the woman lifelong pain and making it difficult for her to walk.

Teeth Filing

Most of us will avoid going near a dentist unless we really have to, but Balinese people willingly submit to a rather extreme treatment. They have some of their teeth filed, which is meant to remove vices like arrogance. It was also practiced among the Upoto tribe in Africa, and among Aborigines.

Lip Plate

We like to accentuate our lips with lipstick, but some African and Amazonian tribes consider that beauty is achieved by stretching the lip. They make a hole, which is gradually increased by inserting larger plates. As if that wasn’t painful enough, they may need some teeth removed to accommodate the plate. Ouch.
