Odd question

So a buddy (guy) of mine got a tongue piercing. No he's not gay or anything but he says, "The ladies love it and find it sexy." That was his motivation for getting it.

Is this true?! I've always thought it to be weird.

I understand people who love piercings get it, that's fine. But this guy has no other piercings or even a small tattoo.

EDIT: Other than the obvious sexual reasons

    I'm not sure why men thing women as a whole like it - it's no different then say a tattoo, or a preference for tall men vs. shorter. It's all up to the woman at hand - me personally - I think it's gross! And I have several tattoos and had peircings when I was younger so it's not that I'm against them at all - just think the idea is IKE! And PS I had my tounge done - again as a KID!

    I think they are okay (no preference either way) but they tear up your tooth enamel, and I think teeth are sexy.

    I think that piercings are ridiculous.

    I think it's dependent on the age of your friend. I had my nose pierced in my early 20's, and it was cute and cool until I kept seeing women my mom's age with their noses pierced as well.

    I'm a dental hygienist and if people were shown pictures of the long-term and painful damage that results - nobody would get them.

    Dont get me wrong...Im all for artistic expression, I have several tatoos myself but have never gotten a piercing, other than traditional ear lobe piercings (as a child). I consider myself quite artistic, but I honestly think some piercings are a bit too much and are kind of gross. And like I said... to each their own in artistic expression, I just think certain piercings (including tongue piercings, horns, lip piercings, under-skin applications, Ear Stretching, etc etc) are a bit too much... and "IMO" they look bad versus attractive. I know they are all the rage with many people, I just think there are much better ways to distinguish yourself or express yourself... Anyhow, I cant comment on the sexual aspect as I havent expirienced that but I think any god-given part, unaltered without metal, would work just fine.

    doesn't float my boat in any way- but I suppose it's not meant to...I mean if a guy pierces his tongue it's for expression/show and a sex thing, I doubt it's so he can find an overweight somewhat dull mumsie person (don't get me wrong-I can rock...it just doesn't show on the packaging) and do his thang!

    I've never had any girl tell me my tongue would be better if it was pierced. That glassed over, exhausted look tells me it's just fine.

    I'm not a fan.. It ruins your teeth and smile.... Smiles are sexy! Tattoos however, are a different story ;)

    I am a fan of piercings, but a pierced tongue on a guy just never did anything all that spectacular for me. A Prince Albert on the other hand.... :bigsmile:

    sounds gay...not that theres anything wrong with that in terms of political discourse or strike getting.

    Piercings have an age limit now?
