A person who cuts them self with razorblades or knives (or any sharp object) to feel "relief" from day to day pressures, relationship problems, or troubles with parents. Usually blamed on a parent or mental health issue, but is almost always learned from a close or older friend, who the cutter looks up to This gives them a bond, or a common problem that they can use as way of relating to each other. (The cutter will never admit to this for fear that a parent or loved one will tell them not to hang out with that person anymore).
The cuts usually start out as scratches but can escalate to deep lacerations, the deeper cuts and scars represent how "hardcore" the person is and how severe their problems are. These same people usually minimize or belittle the people who only "scratch" themselves.
Since Abuse or mental illness remove responsibility from the cutter, these are the first things a cutter blames for their actions. The parent who demands good grades is "too controlling" or "can never be satisfied" or "thinks I'm not good enough." The mental illness (bi-polar, manic depression) requires medication and the cutter is really the innocent victim.
Some cutters hide their cuts and some don’t. A quick look at MySpace or Facebook photos will tell you what kind of cutter the person is. The attention seeking cutter will always have pics of scars or poems with innuendos about cutting.

When taking a dump and someone hurries you they may say hurry up and cut it and wipe.
When cracking on someone you would say you have so much anal sex your cutter is blown out or something to that extent.

I think that some people cut themselves because they feel that they have nothing else better to do. Some people may call them attention cutters because they talk about it with their friends. Some peoples friends are concerned and try to help them out. These people may cut themselves just because they want to know what it is like because you see it all the time on television. Some people cut and don't try to hide it but I don't think it makes these people attention cutters.
Susie was a cutter, but she's okay now and I really respect her for getting through it and not hiding it from us anymore.

stupid emo kids who try to get attention.
they say its an addiction or a way to "release emotional distress" but we all know that bullsh*t. its just a bunch of whiney idiots who have yet to discover sex or drugs.

A slang term for a nice ass. The word derives from the term "turd cutter." Cutter was formed as a more discrete form of turd cutter to prevent being caught while complimenting a girl's ass.

Usualy a teenage girl who feels she has so much emotional pain, that she literaly takes a knife to her arm. Cutting is lame and retarded and practised by emo's and pseudo-goths alike, but then there are girls who are "popular", but they say they are so tormented on the inside that they go home and cut their arm. this act of self mutilation is meaningless and anyone who cuts should be removed from all sharp objects and get a good punch in the nose.
watch the badly made/wrttien/acted movie "Thirteen" for a good example.
