Origin of Love tattoo

rjcoona @rjcoona (8) • United States 29 Dec 06

I love the symbolism in Hedwig and the Angry inch. I was curious how other fans feel about the end of the movie when Hedwig is walking naked out into the street from the alley with a completed face tattoo on his hip.

sloanjosiecat79 my advice would be to not take them. i know you probably want to hear this but other than being potentially bad for your health the weight you will lose while on them will be gained back and mostly likely more along with it once you stop taking the pills.
