I want a septum piercing but I'm a fat girl...I'm worried I will look like a straight hog with it in. Are septum piercings only for chicks of normal size?

    Can't really offer you any valuable input since I think they look horrible on everyone regardless of size.

    I don't think weight has anything to do with it. I love piercings, have a few, but that is my least favorite. :(

    You do not look like a "big" girl. You look average size. :)

    People on here seem pretty garden variety so I'm not sure how well anything more alternative than ear piercings will go down, but honestly I think go for it, worst comes to worst you hate it and you can take it out and stuff.

    (I honestly think septum piercings look good on pretty much everyone but that's just me??)

    You will not look like a pig.

    Pigs are four legged, have curly tails and are made of delicious bacon.

    You are a pretty young woman who sadly probably does not taste like bacon. Do what makes you happy

    Not to sound like a complete *****, but I didn't ask anyone if they LIKED the piercing, I like it, that is what counts...I just want to know if people would look at me and go "Wow, why would a fat chick get a septum piercing?! She looks like a pig!"

    Seriously, no sarcasm...I'm truly not being *****y by saying I didn't ask for personal liking of the piercing, I just really want honest opinions and to know if the general public would think that a fat girl with a septum piercing would trigger "pig" in their head...I would think that, but I'm hypercritical.

    And I am so not averge size...I'm over 200lbs, a size 16/18 and medically speaking, obese....but good to know I'm a fooler. :-)

    Yup. You shouldn't get piercings or tattoos based on what others think.

    Anyone who would say anything like this would find something to snark about whether you have the piercing or not because some people are judgmental a$$es. I say go for it.

    Correct me if I'm wrong here but isn't it a BULL that gets this type of piercing? I haven't ever heard of a pig with a septum piercing.

    All in all no matter what any if us say its up to you to decide whether you want one or not. I don't see how getting this piercing will make people think you are more or less of a "pig" if that's how you perceive yourself.

    Yup, agreed. Get it and if YOU don't like the way it looks, then take it out. No harm no foul.

    People question my piercing choices a lot (specifically my plugs) and I just ignore them. It's your body, not theirs.

    I'm no stranger to either and I don't get them based on what others think, I get them because I like them...but I think it is perfectly reasonable to NOT get one because people think it is ironic (e.g., fat girl with a piercing that swine have). It's like a person with alopecia getting their "eyebrow" pierced....makes you go what the WHAT? Ok, not really, they didn't do alopecia to themselves and I did fat to myself, but ya get where I'm going...

    If you think that about others, why on earth would you do it to yourself?

    Bulls do, but so do pigs...I grew up on farm! It isn't as common but sometimes they will do it to HUGE hogs.

    When you asked if it would make you look like a pig, wasn't that asking for an opinion?

    and for the most part we answered you...

    that people probably wouldn't notice your size and think " she looks like a pierced pig" but rather people would hyper focus on the piercing and say "that's not for me"

    we DID answer you...

    your size has nothing to do with it. nothing...

    so get the piercing and know that most people will be questioning why you did that...regardless of your size.

    I just don't want people to think "Damn, she looks like a pig!" I do want the approval that people won't be reminded of a pig when they look at me! So I totally do care what people think of it! I never claimed I didn't....I started this thread to get the feedback.
