Nipples or genitalia. Just makes me wonder at how people are so different because I have a low pain threshold as a ginger and can't even imagine going through with any of that ever.i'm sorry but i just dont understand what would make a person want to put a hole in thier genitalia........ maybe because im a guy? i dont know........ but that just sends shivers down the spine.
i did have my ear pierced back in middle school. i think i wore a 10 guage hoop.
I contemplated it for a while... mostly for just he shock factor but I would never have the guts to go thru with it... LOL0 -

Because jingling when you walk pants-less is fun! I close to modify mine because I like they way they look and feel. It have genital piercings for the same reasons I have all of my other modifications. And let me tell you, some of my genital piercings have been significantly less painful and easier to heal than other piercings.
Also about the "ears looking like anuses without jewelry" thats only if you are an idiot/impatient/too immature to do some proper research before permanently modifying your body and did not wait long enough between sizes to stretch. If you stretch your ears properly, keep them moisturized and clean, and wear proper jewelry, they won't look like anuses and they won't smell like they're rotting. I've had stretched earlobes for 7 years now, and they are smooth inside when I take my plugs out, and they don't smell at all.0 -
Had ears pierced as a teen, always had and still have problems even with gold/silver/stainless steel/plastic It seems that whatever earrings I use my lobes just get angry! lol Had tongue done just over 10 yrs ago and never had a problem! love it to this day :O)0

Looked up on wiki for what are Conch and Industrial piercings and those are both ones that I tend to find as "cool" and not so threatening.. interesting embellishment. The Labret stuff.. and those skin studs.. dermal anchoring or whatever.. those are ones that have always looked more "painful" to me.0

lol at jingling when you walk. Im by no means judging the look. just the thought of a needle down there scares the *kitten* out of me.
all i have to say is your a brave soul0 -
My ears were zero years ago. I sometimes rock 8ga cbrs still, but it's rare for me to put the effort into getting them in. But I make sure I keep the holes open.0

I have my ears stretched to 22mm.... I have had quite a few piercings, 2 x industrials, neck, septum stretched to 3mm, vertical labret etc etc.. I work in a professional environment now, I took out most probably two years ago... Now all you can see is both sides of my nose and stretched ears. Miss my vertical labret

I have my eyebrow, nose and labret pierced...as well as my tongue.0

Are gauges those big giant "native" loops you stick in your earlobes?
Not a fan, not a fan, not a fan.0 -
00 gauges right here! (:0

I've seen a lot of tattoo threads... but what about piercings and gauges?
Personally, I've got size 0 gauges in my second ear piercing
LOVE peircings and tattoos but I really don't like gauges. I don't think it's attractive when I can put one of more of my fingers through a persons ear...yuck0 -

I used to have a PA. Ask a girl who's been with a guy with one. She's either loved it or hated it. And if she's loved it, the fun never stops dude.
And the worst part of getting it done for me was the receiving tube. I barely felt the needle.0 -
I used to have both ears stretched to 1/2", but I let them heal up. Im currently re-stretching them; Im at 2g right now.
I also used to have: the bridge of my nose, eyebrow, nose, cartilage (15+ times), medusa (middle upper lip), and dahlias.
Currently, I have my labret and tongue pierced. (Im slowly taking them out for work; im technically not supposed to have them, but my boss is really nice)0 -
1/2" gauges. Septum. Had some surface to surface but that was oh so long ago!

Don't mind piercings in normal locations, but I think they can be overdone (especially like 4 in each earlobe and noses and lips) and the overdone ones along with gauges scream "Hey, look, I'm going to be self-employed someday!" since they turn many employers off from the first impression.0

i've got two piercings in each ear, and a lip piercing.:)0

I talked about my suspension during my interview with the fire department I'm on. It helped me land a 60k a year job. People who choose to judge others by how they have chosen to shape their bodies are no different than racsists IMO.0 -
Guages are dumb...can't stand them, don't get it. Everything else, go nuts.
The question was asked....no need to assassinate me. Thank you!

I had my ears stretched to size 2, but the left one started giving me problems so I took them out. I also had my lip pierced but mom flipped her *kitten* & I had to take that out too. So now I just have two in each ear & my nose. Along with 5 tattoos & more to come I like plugs as long as they're clean (smelly=ew) & I can't fit my fist through them :P 0

Without the ornamentation gauges look like a worn out ballon knot0

Lol, no one likes the look of lobes that have gone all catsassed. Thats why you keep em in 0 -
super sexy - my boyfriend used to have them stretched to 1s and i always thought it was crazy hot. i even think the holes from when he took them out are pretty cute, haha. i would like to stretch mine a little once i've lost the weight, and get my belly-button pierced as well!0

since I am at work, I can't google the names of these different piercings, but I'm SO SO curious. Some of the names are obvious, like I can imagine a "Marilyn" is a beauty spot on your upper lip, right? But some of these names are mystifying me.
Can anyone translate these piercing terms for me?
Industrial?
Tragus?
Conch?
there were tons of others mentioned that I was unsure of......

I had my ears stretched to a 0 a couple years back, took them out for some reason and never put them back in. Thinking about doing them again, or getting a different piercing but not sure yet0
