Piercings.....discuss

[tigscoco]

Tongues just been pierced, and now its the talking point of my friends.

You've got the girls thinking it looks funky, but seem to think its only a certain kinda gal that would get it done......

And the guys are like OOOOOO, when you going to try it out?

- Why do piercings sterio-type you into "that kind of person"?

So what kind of image did you want to create?

Most people I know have piercings or tattoos.  I have nothing against them and in some cases I think they can be attractive, such as tattoos on the lower back.  But I have no plans to get either myself.

I had my tongue pierce for 5 years. Took it out a couple of years ago.

The image is made by each persons perception, and the general perception is of.....well, what perception do you have mark?

I've never understood tongue piercings.

Do people really want a lisp that badly, as that's the only thing it seems to create?

Pro-piercers please explain.

TBH I dont particularly like Piercings, Tattoo's however, if done chosen wisely and dont correctly can be awesome..... im going to get one done of My Daughters name 'Emily' down the inside of my left Forearm, not chosen the Font style yet (anything except 'Wingdings' i think)

I think the piercing of Tongues,Nips and Navels is fine.
I don't like the eyebrow stuff. My sister had it done on
her eyebrow years ago, it just looked Low Rent.

The image I have from your post.....

Want's to be appreciated, probably for being unique and daring. You want to be noticed but not judged.

Close?

To be fair, I don't have that bad a lisp, but thats only because I've still got the big bar in, when the wee bars in, I doubt it would affect it much.

To me it something personal I've wanted done for ages, and its not on show on my face, its inside my mouth, so you can't see it unless I laugh, or yawn.

But I never got in done for show, which I think a lot of people get piercings for.

I mean look at the people who get piercings in their backs and arms and stuff.  Is it for the shock factor?

Then why?

[Sark79]

I know a guy from School that went through a phase of piercing himself.   There was a singer called Mike Patton who used to sing in a great band called Faith No More.  He had his eyebrow pierced, and it actually looked really cool.  My mate copied Mike patton and came to School one day with a pierced eyebrow.  The idiot did it himself

As I said I didn't do it for show, but the imediate reaction of telling people is "Oh your boyfriend will love that".  I just don't think it's fair to have that assumption.

And it was dairing LOL, I was terrified!
