thoughts about piercings? (other than ears)

Some people like them and some don't. There isn't much more to say about it.

my nipple rings give me great pleasure.

Non-ear piercings and tattoos are ugly and look trashy. That's just my opinion. Plenty of my friends have tattoos and one or two have non-ear piercings, that's their call. I just wouldn't get one if you paid me!

To each their own.

I have only my ears pierced. I have always wanted my belly button pierced when I lose weight. However, I started second guessing if I really want one. I know a lot of poeple who got infections there and after my sister's pregnancies, she looks like she has two belly buttons (but then again, she did tell me that it was becuase she didn't remove during pregnancy.)

I enjoy both. I have 5 tattoos, 3 ear peircings (2 are pretty much closed up though) and my belly button done.

I say whatever floats your boat.

To each their own. Anything beyond your own perceptions is calling for prejudice.

I love body mods, I have ear piercings (various places) and my navel, tongue, lip and nose. I've my hand webbing pierced and the top part of the nose (bridge/earl). I love them!

As for tattoos I am just as mad, I have my 8th and 9th tattoos booked in for next month - I'm starting to run out of body places! The annoying part is that I am at uni studying a medical degree so I can't have any more visible tattoos besides the ones I already have my tattoos are offensive in any way, its a shame some people think they are.

I have had my nose for a while now and I got a piercing by my eye (aside from the ones in my ears, including an industrial).

Piercing near my eye:



Piercings aren't so much a problem or special outside the US, however people in the US tend to be really judgmental and you can even have a hard time finding a job with them. Most of Europe has moved beyond that.

When I went to visit back home in the US I had a hard time remember how people feel about them.

Personally I don't like facial piercings or tattoos that can't be hidden. I have 2 piercings in each ear and one tat on my upper back. I also plan on getting at least one more tat. But everyone likes different things, I'll like you either way.

I have tattoos and my ears are pierced. I have never been drawn to body piercings but I don't have a problem with them. I think what is ugly is people's attitudes towards them, whether it be pro or con. I know people who think because they are pierced and tattooed they are totally bad *kitten* and that just isn't the case, anyone can get pierced or tattooed. It isn't some kind of special club. Or those who think they are more worldly or more sexually aware and open because they happen to have tattoos and piercings. My tattoos say nothing about me except that I like tattoos. They don't make me more hip or cool or bad *kitten*. I have also had men who wouldn't date me because I have tattoos and that is ugly to me also. Or people think I am a certain way because I have tattoos and judge me on that. I don't judge on whether someone has them or not. I look at the cut of their character instead.

Depends on who you talk to - some people love them, other people hate them.

Me personally, I have had a vertical labret (lip) piercing for 10 years with out it I feel naked, and I am always looking for it (I had one job I had to take it out for - I only lasted at that job for 2 days). I have had my septum done for 5 years, before that both nostrils, 2 in my eyebrow, my belly button. I went through a major piercing 'phase' I am however thinking of getting my nose done again. My ears stretched the lower holes are a 4g right now but I am working towards a 0g, and the one ear has another one at about 12g. Oh and I had a Microdermal.. but that got ripped out at work and I just never went and had it redone.

I have tattoos too. I love them they are me - none of them have a particularly deep meaning for them either. My employer doesn't seem to care if I have blue hair or tattoos or anything and my family has learned to accept it - and the rest of the world, well I really don't care.

Edited to add something.

People with facial piercings are clearly superior.

Cardio Kitten speaks the truth!

If you are a woman that has not had a baby and plan on it. They hurt and they leave terrible scars! Yuck!

my navel piercing and nipple piercings have lived through two pregnancies and are no worse for wear.

I am planning on getting my belly button pierced as a reward for getting the abs I want...not there yet. But I do have six tattoos...all dragons..and am planning my seventh...and I LOVE tatts on guys...it is just hot.

Note: my bf does tattoo work, and has owned his own shop before (not currently) but he does NOT have any tatts that are visible with clothes on...he says he has to stay professional....I too have to keep mine under wraps...but I wish I didn't.

hmm my best friend suggested I go for nipple piercing...tempted, but the pain and idea of possibly losing sensation worries me.
Navel piercing is a reward at my UGW, possible nose piercing after my surgery in feb.

I don't mind piercings (some guys look amazing with a tongue or eyebrow piercing!)
