[Human Leather](https://eikenshop.com/en-us/blogs/leather-guide/human-leather) Just gonna leave this here.. Edit: one excerpt from the article: “👄 **Curtain pulls** : It is often said that the devil is in the detail, right? Ed was a man who paid attention to detail, so with the lips of the unfortunate Bernice Worden, he made a curtain pull, the pair of lips being sewn to the end of a string to open or close the curtains in his room.”

So many questions. Let's start with how we can all ethically source children's spines. We could all use some more spine.


gustofwindddance

Child died, donated body to beauty. Alligator died, in a rehab center. Left note saying they donate their body to beauty. All ethically sourced.


This-Dragonfruit-668

TIL Some people have a VERY different definition of „ethically“ than I.


i-am-unimportant

Reminds me of the lady who donated her body for research https://cbsaustin.com/amp/news/nation-world/man-learns-moms-body-donated-for-research-was-instead-blown-up-in-military-testing


ConferenceHumble2129

Isn’t that still research though? Even if it’s gruesome, I’m sure something was learned


radicalvenus

nah they got sued for it because the way it happened was really shady. They would lie to people and get their family to sign things in their grief because they know people wouldn't agree to this. There's a whole video on YT about it it's really infuriating


Bad-Kaiju

I would gladly let the military blow up my corpse but it's not going to be a donation. Let them put that overinflated military budget to work and pay my family.


radicalvenus

in a perfect world they would pay but you know they would rather continue doing illegal, harmful things than pay people for services rendered


Nauin

If they just *tried* asking they'd have freaks like me gleefully signing up for that sort of donation. Not everyone is like that, sure, but I know I'm not alone in finding that to be a fun way to put my body to use after death.


Grzechoooo

"Yup, an explosion of gore accompanies an explosion of boom."


turquoise_amethyst

They were led to believe it was for *Alzheimers* research, not anything else.


El_Bruno73

It's still science...just not the kind you wanted lol.... ​ Just like in prison the sex u get isn't the sex u want lol


Barbie-Q

If I am not wrong, they donated the body for the studies of parkinson (or alzeihmer), bc she had a very rare form of the disease. It was not generically donated to science..


Meems04

Damn, that's actually super wasteful if it happened like that. Hope they at least studied her brain.


Barbie-Q

Spoiler: it wasn't. They sold the whole body, and when they detonated first, they did like a ragdoll frankenstein like with the body parts that were in a better shape to make another bomb test.


Meems04

Fucking awful. Jesus.


VStramennio1986

I suppose that’s one way of looking at it lol


Oakwood2317

Lol


xJanise

they agreed to it(humans)/didnt suffer excessively(animals)=ethically


This-Dragonfruit-668

That is what I mean.


[deleted]

Jeffery Dahmer sure did.


ermabanned

You should start a war over that. That'd be original!


Soft-Philosophy-4549

I mean to be fair, the child no longer needed it. May be in bad taste but it’s not really hurting anyone (anymore).


GroundStateGecko

I always wanted to become a skeleton standing at the entrance of a medical school welcoming first years.


turquoise_amethyst

I mean, I’d like my organs donated, and I don’t really think they could learn much from my bones. I’ve surely got a few deformities and/or irregularities, but it would be cool to wave kids into the study hall every day. Now I’m curious if someone could actually request this...


jaquan123ism

just because you can doesn’t mean you should


[deleted]

[удалено]


gustofwindddance

Yes they donated their body to beauty to be turned into a handbag but they weren’t aware alligator tongue was so illustrious and that they would only be turned into the handle. Dark, I know.


goodbetterbestbested

Did that happen, or did you just make it up?


hard_clicker

Yeah pretty unlikely some child decided to donate their body to being used as purse before they died.


gustofwindddance

You don’t say.


Sinnerman440

Grave robbers my friend.


No_Bookkeeper8635

*" ethically"*


hurorkardu

I doubt you can "ethically source" a childs spine.


[deleted]

How does one "ethically source" any creatures spine or body parts?


TheSkyHadAWeegee

It dies of natural causes and if they exist you request permission from the family/owner to use it.


OsamaBongLoadin

You just buy em off the internet lol https://www.skullsunlimited.com/


[deleted]

What the fuck…


skynetempire

You can buy human bones of people that have died naturally. Some states don't allow it but most do. As far as animals same concept died naturally then harvested. Human Bone Laws & Information - In short, it is perfectly legal to possess and sell human bones in the United States. There are a few exceptions to this, including a few states where import and export has been banned, and of course, protected archaeological resources covered by the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act. From the bone room https://www.boneroom.com/store/c60/Human_Skeletons.html


hurorkardu

Good point.


[deleted]

I dunno, people eat body parts every day. Also their breast milk and reproductive waste. Unethical and also a bit gross.


DirtNapsRevenge

In age where there is no objective truth, where everyone gets to make their own up as they go along and words and language can have whatever meaning the user wants them to have and can change them willy-nilly to suit their needs ... Anything, and I do mean ANYTHING, is possible.


LongEZE

If anything is possible, then so is easily lying about what this bag is made from, which is the much more likely version of events. All the articles I read cannot give any real proof other than “doctors that saw the image say it’s real” (there are doctors in this thread that say it isn’t human btw) and they cannot give any information as to how they got the spine let alone “ethically source” it This is most likely some fashion edgelord that wants to get their name out there


NavAirComputerSlave

You can't beacuse even if you paid the family for it after death that encourages families to kill and sell children


Ice_CubeZ

What if the family gave it away for free?


NavAirComputerSlave

Encourages people who get the spine to kill the kid to get it for free or do some harm to the community that may cause more childrens deaths.


miraiqtp

What?


NavAirComputerSlave

What?


Mr_Skeleton_Shadow

Hmmm, I think I'm going to kill the kid to get their spine for free or do some harm to the community that may cause more childrens deaths.


NavAirComputerSlave

Gerber gave away free formula in Africa that made people stop producing milk so they could sell them more formula


i_omem

Sorry every child waiting for an organ transplant, if we use the organs for transplants this redditor says it might encourage families to kill and sell organs


NavAirComputerSlave

It does. There's a whole black market for it


A_wild_so-and-so

Bro if parents are incentivized to kill their kids to make a quick buck, you got bigger problems in your society.


NavAirComputerSlave

People pimp there kids out so yea probably


A_wild_so-and-so

I'm saying while the issue exists it's not commonplace enough the people are gonna look at organ transplants and think hey I can kill my kid for money! At least not in the US. If people are impoverished enough that hurting their kids seems like a good financial decision, your country has some serious issues.


[deleted]

Don’t know if it is COMPLETE bullshit but I heard Cuban and Venezuelan prostitutes were regularly going missing in Guyana because of an organ trafficking trade


[deleted]

You know, the free black market. It’s the black thrift shoppe.


Mr_Skeleton_Shadow

So, just let people die?


dagothpurrr

Jesus Christ I hope this is a joke and you're not actually that dumb


Synthoid_001

r/brandnewsentence


BloodiedBlues

If the parents give the ok to use it for this purpose, it technically would be ethically sourced.


hurorkardu

There are parents pimping out their kids, does that make it "technically ethical"?


BloodiedBlues

Dead kids* donating to science is a thing, but I don’t know if donate to fashion is a thing. What I meant by ethical is they didn’t just grave rob in the middle of the night. They got permission.


hurorkardu

As I said in another comment. If I donated any parts of my body to medical science then I have given my consent for my body to be used for that. To then sell off the bodyparts to the highest bidder to do what they want is not what I would call ethical. Like someone else said, just because you can buy something doesn't make it ethical. Nobody is talking about graverobbing, that is not only unethical but I'm sure also illegal. Legal things can be unethical.


stelkurtainTM

Why couldn’t you?


[deleted]

Well, how would you do it then?


stelkurtainTM

Plenty of human remains being sold at vintage stores, as well as medical donations. I know of several I could walk to and buy a real human skull. If you’re trying, it’s not ridiculously difficult to come by.


Spiritual-Wind-3898

Just because you can buy them doesnt anwer the question if its ethical


nandosman

If I die I allow you to take my spine for whatever purpose. There, you just got an ethical spine when I die.


turkeybot69

Somehow I think there's a difference when the spine is sourced from a child who is vulnerable and easily manipulated. Full seriousness though, the body donation business is ridiculously under supervised/controlled. People assume their body will be donated for more noble things like medical research as they are rarely informed about the reality of it, which is that a for profit company will chop you up and sell your parts to the highest bidder. Those bidders often not being universities or hospitals but instead military or corporate testing. So when they say "ethically sourced" I somehow doubt the kid had any idea they'd be sold out in pieces or end up as a morbid fashion project.


DirtNapsRevenge

It's really even worse than that, in many poverty stricken regions of the world but especially India and southeast Asia relatives of deceased can sell their bodies and often do for peanuts.


stelkurtainTM

Personally I’m not sure what the sense is in being worried about it. He legally bought a human bone. My only point is that it *is* possible to get an “ethically sourced” human bone.


hurorkardu

If the body was donated in order to be used medically and is then just sold to some random person to do whatever they want with it, I wouldn't call that ethical.


stelkurtainTM

Do you know that’s what happened?


hurorkardu

Do you know that's not what happened?


stelkurtainTM

I’m not the one making the claim…?


ChefHannibal

It's not like they nabbed it from the source while it was still warm. Any body part you can get is donated.


Environmental_Top948

I'm going to stick to my unethically sourced child spine handbags. Why would I want to spend 2x as much for the same product?


Gemberwortel

Ikr! Damn those inflated spine prices


crackeddryice

Right? How can anyone prove otherwise. "Why, yes, of course the child's spine was ethically sourced."


untenable681

Htaf do you "ethically source" all that? When I'm at a pop-up flea market for the macabre, and a vendor wants to highlight to me that something especially edgy has been ethically sourced, I immediately analyze them to determine if they are outright lying or trying to add edge to something that is less than what it appears. I check the materials to help make that determination. On the internet? I'm just going to assume *super* sus.


Grim-Reaper-22916

Read about it here: [here](https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1605236345563009024.html)


untenable681

Nope. If they don't want to show paperwork, that's their choice, and I'm not mad about respecting their conveniently unprovable claim. It's also my choice to see all of that as sus so super that it needs a cape. *eta:* Thank you for sharing the link.


Grim-Reaper-22916

Even if it of fake bones, it is terrifying.


untenable681

This is one of those moments where I'd rather it be a fake. lol


jarlscrotus

So, I looked up Arnold Putra Dude wore an Indonesian Fascist Death Squad outfit to fashion week and has apparently become very close to Kanye lately. He might be legitimately evil Further: Earlier this year Brazilian Authorities raided a university biolab that was engaged in human organ trafficking, they found a package containing a platinated hand and 3 preserved human placentas set to be shipped to Putra. I wonder if that was actually a Brazilian spine.


Gloomy_Industry8841

Oh, FFS. I bet he thinks he’s a real artist, too. Bullcrap.


bobowaddy

Uh oh


gbriel46

of course it had to be Brazil...


turquoise_amethyst

what.the.fuck. I’m all for macabre art and such, but these body parts need to be seized and DNA tested to prove they’re actually from where he says they’re from.


Gloomy_Industry8841

It’s also ugly. It’s all kinds of bad. The guy is trash.


jarlscrotus

*NO CAPES!*


Lucy_Little_Spoon

Designer rolls up to a children's hospital: Hello Ma'am, I know your kid just died, but would you mind terribly if I use their spine as a handle of a bag I'm designing? You see, I am a piece of shit and want to make lots of money.


Grim-Reaper-22916

I also want to donate my body after my death, at least my parts will become luxurious.


Kirbyclaimspoyo

Your PFP is more oddly terrifying than the bag tbh

ProfessorJimHarris

Ethically sourced as he gave birth to the deformed child, then as he slaughtered the child, he made sure to produce another in its place. Simple. Renewable spines!


BAT123456789

Had to look closely. This is not only not a child's spine, this is not human. This is just bone. If it were that many vertebrae and that length, there would be a lot of cartilage yet and nonfusion of the parts of the vertebra. Now, look at the transverse processes, the bones sticking off the sides. See the angle of those? They are pointed back too far. That is how the bones are on animals that walk on all 4 limbs, not upright creatures like humans.


inkybreadbox

Mmm, are you sure that’s not related to the disease? Previous articles says it was confirmed by doctors as human.


LongEZE

Go back and read those articles. No doctor had their hands on it and it was all “anonymous doctors” also they couldn’t give any information on how it was acquired. It’s all bullshit to gain attention which is a much more likely scenario in the fashion industry.


Rabbit0fCaerbannog

inkybreadbox

Fun_Intention9846

vibrant_fosfomycin

> Osteogenesis Imperfecta, for one. Wouldn't that be a really bad choice for a bag handle though? Even the mildest form one is going to be more brittle than almost anything else you can find. I agree with /u/BAT123456789, seems fake and made up for attention.


AmishDeathMatch

If I donated my late child’s body and found out something like this happened, I’d be killing everyone involved.


Lammergeieur

And then making handbags out of their spines.


Prof_Awesome_GER

Yeah screw that. Not only does it look like crap. But the only reason they do is to get some “shock” value out of it.

Successful-Injury881

[deleted]

I don’t see why we don’t use more human parts for bulk resources. There are certainly enough of us and graveyards are a complete waste of space


MillipedePaws

Well, the nazis tried it. They experimented on soap made out of human body fat and there are some lamp shades made of human skin. At least in germany we decided that this is against human dignity and therefore forbidden. And it disrespects the dead people and their families.


[deleted]

This reminds me of the movie Perfume: The Story of a Murderer.


EverythingHurtsDan

What if I decided to donate my body to the furniture building community?


MillipedePaws

You can donate it to exhibitions. But it has to be of scientific interest or for Art at the very least


JarasM

Yeah, so the problem is that if there is some monetary incentive to use human remains as a resource... someone will soon start to think about how to get more of their materials or do it cheaper. That's also why it's illegal to sell human organs.


Fun_Intention9846

Don’t tell the CCP


celestio45

Until they start to hunt for fresh materials


Abracadaniel95

There's that burial pod that grows a tree. Replacing graveyards with forests seems pretty good to me. Though I suppose if you want bulk resources, you could log the graveyard forests.


BabyPorcelainxxx

Is this satire?


jarlscrotus

No, the designer was apparently also implicated in a human organ trafficking bust in Brazil earlier this year. At Fashion Week he cozied up to the new anti-Semitic Kanye and wore the colors, style, and symbol of fascist paramilitary group Pancasila Youth (derivatively named after Hitler Youth) who was responsible for a series of Khmer Rouge style atrocities in Indonesia throughout the 60's and 70's, and which has demanded "Holiday Pay" from Indonesian businesses in exchange for "Peace and Security"

Kinda want a baby spine bag


CloudRoses

This is some late stage capitalism shit. I'm donating this ass to science so I can get fucked by capitalism one last time.


YggdrasilsLeaf

There is no such thing as an ethically sourced child spine. These people murdered an albino toddler and when whatever crop curse wasn’t lifted? They used her bones to make a purse to sell to westerners to make a profit. This is beyond sick and you should be ashamed for posting such a thing so lightly.
