Is it okay to be paid to advertise on your forehead? by Mr. Migdal https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht en-us 2017-12-19 12:28:55 UTC 2025-12-30 20:46:15 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Dootheets.png Melissa https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217383363 I don't think it's okay to advertise on you forehead. It's practically saying, "We'll buy that for this amount of money!" It's basically selling yourself. Like it's been mentioned before our bodies don't exactly belong to us. We're just borrowing it from God. Even though it may not be permanent, we're still tampering with our body. Yes I may have ear piercings that are permanent. However, it wasn't my choice. I had them ever since I was at least 5 months old. Same thing goes with make up, it's not permanent but you're changing what God gave you. People should be happy the way they look with out putting make up on. To others it may be a good thing, to me I don't like this idea. Also, I wouldn't do it because I don't like attention attracted to me. In all, I believe it's not okay to do such things. "Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy that person. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple." (1 Corinthians 3 16-17)]]> 2017-12-19 21:31:40 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217383363 Gail https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217385269 I don't think it's morally right to rent your body out to anyone for any reason. Like Marchelino and Mr. Migdal had said earlier, our bodies don't belong to us therefore it is not right to profit of them. They belong to God and they will return to Him after our time is up. We should not scar these holy vessels of life. I believe this question is a bit more a question of perspective. For some, it's a extra to sport their favorite brand's name on their forehead, and get paid for it too. For some, it's the cream on top of the cake and they're going to milk it for all it's worth. But that's for some, not for me. I don't find this very different from prostitution. In both cases you're renting your body out for the use of others, aren't you? No matter how much you pay me, you can't buy me over. I won't accept that dirty money.  Even if I'm poor God will provide for me. "Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" (Matthew 6:26). So for me, no I wouldn't advertise anything on ANY PART OF MY BODY for money nor do I approve of this method of advertisement. ]]> 2017-12-19 21:43:56 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217385269 Amelia https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217386267 In my opinion I say it’s ok. In my opinion it is alright to sell out your body. First of all every person says that god gave you this body and you shouldn’t change it, but if you decide to then it’s your sin. Some people still get tattoos and that’s because it’s the person’s choice. Not only that but it is not permanent. Like I draw on my hand all the time when I get bored. If it was permanent I would be against it, because then it is ruining your body and that’s something god didn’t want us to do. But yet you see people, for example wearing make-up and that’s ok. You are also getting payed for it, you are getting payed for something that’s not even bad and it’s ok to agree to it. ]]> 2017-12-19 21:50:58 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217386267 Victoria https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217387166 Overall I think that selling out a part of your body for money is right in any way shape or form. First of all, you might be like, oh its just advertising and you'll get paid for it. I you think about it literally, you are letting a company buy you and using you for their benefit. That is human trafficking. The definition of human trafficking is " the action or practice of illegally transporting people from one country or area to another, typically for the purposes of forced labor or commercial sexual exploitation." This is exactly what the companies are getting the girls to do. They wanted to travel so the brand put a stamp on the girls claiming them and then transporting them to another area, using them for the brands benefit. Under no circumstances should you feel as if you need to sell yourself out to make money. ]]> 2017-12-19 21:56:34 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217387166 Victorlikesbeansssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217388748 I believe it is alright to use the materials you have to profit. Firstly, it isn't against what god says at all. During Halloween, many of the students in our CATHOLIC school used face paint. If it was against god, why would it be allowed? I know some people (including me) that write stuff down on their hands or arms do remind them to do something. When I write "do math homework" on my hand, its the same thing as writing "drink coke" on your forehead. You're writing something on your body, which is temporary, to benefit yourself. If there is some kind of hidden bible verse stating you can not advertise on your forehead, than it is ok in my books. I applaud the companies who thought of this tactic as its unique and clever. Some people think benefiting off our bodies, which we borrowed from God, is bad. When you borrow a ruler from a friend to improve your lines, is that bad? Its the same thing as benefiting from your body, you're borrowing something to benefit. If being clever, unique and smart is wrong, I wonder what correct is.]]> 2017-12-19 22:10:43 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217388748 Sebastian https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217388908 Tattoing your body is wrong in many different ways. In multiple readings in the Bible we are told that our bodies are like a temple in which we must protect from harms ways. For example: 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; 
Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;  you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. We are repetadly told in the Bible that we are blessed that God gave us our body. So our bodies are not ours but instead God's, its just something we control not own. Apart from the fact that advertising in this way is a sin, it could potencially be disrespectful and incosnsiderate. I don't know about you but if I lived in a place where their is barely any water and someone just comes by advertising a drink, I would be very angry. Because we are suppose to help one another not trick them into buying things they don't even need.
 If I saw my best friend advertsing like this, I would tell him how unethical advertising like that is. But at the end of the day if he doesn't care I woun't even try to change his mine because everyone doess whatever they want but they also are the only ones who feel the consequences. If it was one of my siblings thats a completly different story. I would not only lecture them every single day I would punish them in ways like, i'll let them play if they stop doing what they are doing. It sunds like I am being tough on them but to be honest if I had a sibling all I want to see is him/her succed in life and not become into a bad, uneducated person

Now if they were asking for you to permanently tattoo their logo on your forehead. You are not selling your body. You are willingly writing something on your forehead. You're not going around naked saying "OMG buy this product". IT IS WASHABLE in case you dont know what that means, which apparently a lot of people in this class dont it means that it is able to be washed without any damage. Writing 
Coca-cola on your forehead for a couple grand won't kill anyone. It's not hurting anyone in any shape or form. If both participants are ok with what is going on, whats the harm. Yes, our bodies are temples and we are supposed to take care of them but there are SO many other things that we do DAILY that damage our bodies more than writing a simple name on your forehead. God gave us free will to do what we please, i believe that there is nothing wrong with what you are doing as long as it's not hurting anyone, and as long as it's not illegal.]]> 2017-12-19 23:16:43 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217394851 Ben https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217398850 I think that advertising on your body is the equivalent of renting your body out like a billboard. This is not justifiable. First of all, according to CNET, this is just another advertising vehicle. Your body should be treated with respect. It should not be the equal of a TV commercial, billboard, or any other advertising platform. Also, advertisers only look for attractive young people with outgoing personalities. This shows that they do not think of you as a person, you are just a way to advertise to them. And the fact they are looking for young people with extroverted personalities shows that they are just looking for the best way to advertise. You are also treating yourself like a product, which can be bought for money. Also, most people only get paid around 5 grand. You're basically telling yourself that you are worth less than professional gaming computers. You're worth way more than that. For all the reasons listed above advertising on your body is an unethical practice.]]> 2017-12-20 00:24:08 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217398850 Tamia https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217402060 I would do I think it! I don't see anything wrong with the situation. Now I would be cautions as to what I wasn't advertising but I don't be see an issues with advertising something in your forehead while being paid. I would not permanently mark it on my face but temporarily why not. The company gets publicity and I get a pay check for going out and showing off my face. 
As I stated before I surely wouldn't be using permanent ink on my face but for the right cost I would you temporary. If I were to be hired to do this job by Walmart, Apple, Footlocker, or any other big company I would accept quickly because there brand is well known and I would insure even more publicity and possible customers for the company ]]> 2017-12-20 01:28:56 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217402060 Alex.W https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217403256 I 1000% would put a stupid face tattoo on my face for a reasonable price if it was a company willing to pay, I say there is nothing wrong with doing this, like you might get weird looks walking around with like coca cola on your forehead but who cares in the end youre winning by getting money. There are certain rules to what would be tattooed on my forehead, like if it was some sort of racist message or a sensitive topic i wouldn't get it on my head cause its wrong, and because someone will get offended and beat the living hell out of me.]]> 2017-12-20 01:55:01 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217403256 Marchelino https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217404004  In my opinion, I would say no! Why would I say yes? Using any parts of my body like my forehead as a billboard is not only weird but it also disrespects our bodies that God has given us. He gave us our bodies to make them pure and healthy. Our bodies don't necessarily belong to us they were and always will be a gift from God. I understand that you want the money, but is selling your forehead really the answer? Get a proper job if you have to. Ask yourself when you grow up does it really hurt you when you say to people how you make your money? Would it not embarrass you? I know it would embarrass me! You may not be getting a permanent tattoo, but you are basically letting people know that you would do anything for money. If I was you I would get a normal perfect job and I live my life to the fullest. I would work as a cashier if I had to! I think this is the worst job there is, and I would certainly not do it. ]]> 2017-12-20 02:07:19 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217404004 Maya https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217407152 I don't have anything against this but for me, I rather not write anything on my face, I know I'd be receiving easy cash but to me it does not seem right. I can get  a job and earn the money. Maybe if their were a day that I was desperate in need of money I may consider the idea. I heard multiple times that your body is a gift from God and we are not suppose to ruin it in any way like putting tattoos on. If they are really tattoos then first of all, that must of hurt and probably not good for the brain. It has been said on many websites (Like medicaldialy.com) that the skin on the head is much thinner and can bleed easier making the job harder. The ink goes than skin deep, it leads to multiple errors in medical treatments and high chances of infections. Smarter people who put on fake tattoos get a healthier approach to this situation but even if there is no disease or sicknesses I'm still not wearing a ad on my head. Ads are meant to be put up on billboards or shown on TV and I don't think anyone is going to look at your forehead to notice the ad. What if they don't know the ad and they ignore it, ads that show on billboard at least explain more about the product or company. TV ads show short videos of how the ad is use and convince why one should get it. ]]> 2017-12-20 03:14:35 UTC https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217407152 Margaret https://padlet.com/arturmigdal/7b4b0mq7gnht/wish/217482383
Well as a person who wants multiple tattoos and piercings, but I would never in my life use my forehead to advertise a company. (even if it was temporary) All the tattoos that I want are meaningful, for example; me and my sister are getting matching ones our wrists (when I turn 18), one of the harry potter stars behind my ear, and maybe some thing on my ankle. But why would I get some thing on my body even if it is temporary that doesn't have some type off meaning. Especially on my forehead, if it was on my leg or arm or anywhere else I would be fine with it, but definitely not on my forehead. Everybody would see it, I know that's the point but, let's say that Adidas pays me to get their logo or something temporarily tattooed on me. Would I get it on my forehead, definitely not. I would get it on my arm or my leg or some thing but anywhere near my face would be crossing the line.
