We all have different ick factors.
What I do find someone interesting is the hypocrisy involved. There is a smug 'get over it' attitude for those whos ick factor includes what many would consider self mutilation, yet themselves defend their own 'ick' factor.
If a teacher decided to look like this......
Would that be any different than a sex change in terms of classroom distruption? If this is all about who you feel you are and how you need to express that, I don't think a huge leap is needed.

Firstly, I'm not saying the guy pictured isn't a freak
but I have to say that this example (above) is completely different from the original question. If a well respected teacher was to disappear during summer holidays and return to work with face tattoos and piercings could the school dismiss them? And if so, why?
Further, how much tattooing is too much? how many piercings? where do you draw the line?
They are the same teacher, aren't they?
