    I like when guys wear big "diamond" studs in their ears. Makes me think about my Boyz 2 Men days back in junior high...

    Also, that was a joke. I used to have a labret piercing and the hole won't close up. So I rock a permanent soul patch. Yay.

    I have two tattoos and love them; however, I choose to keep them places where they aren't overtly visible, because a lot of the time I feel that people get tattoos to impress or be attractive to other people, not really for themselves. Not saying that YOU do that, but it feels like many do.

    Left ear - 3
    Right ear - 2
    Tattoos - 7
    Used to have navel pierced, but they made me take it out when I had chemo and radiation, so it healed shut.

    For me, not a fan of tattoos on me. I'm too much of a control freak. I don't know for absolute certainty I will want it later on in life so can't do it. Plus I hear the removal is painful. Hate pain, I have enough naturally without going out to pay for it!! Peircings I'm OK with since they are reversable. But back to paying for pain!!

    But whatever floats your boat!!

    I like both... as long as you don't look like a pin cushion with the piercings.. too many can be distracting at least to me and tattoos well I have a bunch and will get a bunch more. I love them and love looking at them, especially on gorgeous individuals.

    the more of both, the better, unless the piercings are in stupid places

    What would be considered stupid places?

    I generally don't like bridges. or like chains of piercings. anything that just looks forced and over the top

    I have two tattoos but no piercings. Piercings aren’t my thing but I’m not opposed to girls having them.

    I got my ears pierced when I was 11.
    I pierced my ear in the middle when I was in high school.
    I got my belly button pierced when I was 18.
    I got my nose pierced when I was 19.

    All of the piercings closed up except for my ears even though I haven’t worn earrings in a long time.

    I want a tattoo and plan on getting one when I reach my goal weight as a reward.

    Only ears pierced and I rarely wear earrings. Piercings freak me out cause of needles

    I have one little butterfly tattoo. One day I hope to get another little one. Just one line basically to signify my love of skating

    Nose piercing fell out so now I have none :(

    I like both on others :smiley:
