Piercings

[Cpt_Oblivious]

Your parents are evil! There's nothing more disgusting that a child under the age of 12-ish with pierced ears. I hate it.

That's a bit harsh. My mother took me to have mine done when I was six or seven, which is very out of character for her as a) she is very strict and never allowed me to have or do anything when I was younger and b) well, just a actually, there is no b.

But she would not have taken me if I had not wanted them done, and before you conclude anything about her as a mother, let me tell you that she only allowed me and my sister organic food as children, she disciplined us properly, and never spoilt us, and she was just basically anything but evil (that didn't start happening until I hit 13), and she certainly was not negligent as a mother.

Oh yes, and I love tattoos and piercings on chaps.[/quote]Well if it was your choice to have them done at that age I'd say it's ok, as long as you weren't forced to have themlike the babies you see with pierced ears. I still don't like youngsters with piercings done.

I wouldn't say they look disgusting... but I don't see the point in them. Even on girls. Yes, they may look all shiny and nice sometimes, but really all a peircing does is cause a hassle in trying to maintain your hole in your... whatever you peirced and paying for new earrings or whatever to put in them.

Waste of money, time, and energy.

And I fucking hate needles... so that probably says a lot about why I won't be getting any peircings anytime soon, other than what was stated above

This.

The way I see it, getting a piercing or tattoo is like cutting yourself: retarded.

I had a monroe, and thought it looked quite nice, wasn't too flashy.

But I had to take it out cause it started to mess up my gums where it would constantly rub. :[ I miss it.

I also used to have my belly button pierced, but it got a bit old, so I just took it out.

On guys, I don't really like facial piercings, but if he pulls it off nicely it'll do. ^^ Ear piercings are fine, not huge gauges though. They smell y'know?

So I'm pretty neutral overall.

I don't have piercings due to the fact that they look disgusting.

Seconded.

In my opinion i think you should take someone as who they are not what they look like, so what if someone has a face full of metal, wat difference does it make to them as a person, same goes for tattoos, i think it's stupid that women should be allowed ear piercings in jobs but men are told to take them out. I realise there should be limits in that respect but how in anyway does the way someone looks affect their job unless it's for hygiene reasons?

 

[RouxBelle]

i have 2 holes in each ear and my right ear i have a piercing in the upper cartalidge...and on guys, i think it is soooo sexy when they have their lip or eyebrow pierced....

 

[magnuslion]

I have three in my left ear ((regular lobe piercings)) and my septum. used to have the tongue done, but i took it out for like 30 seconds and the blasted thing closed.

 

[thebrainiac1]

My body is a temple, so I would never have a piercing, but I think it's cute on girls.

 

[Sir-Tdb]

Don't like piercings so much.

But im saving for my first tattoo

( Its big and in color, so it will cost lots and lots of my gaming fee )

Piercings are okay - people who like them, like them and they are free and should feel free to express themselves without ridicule.

I don't have any piercings myself (and I don't intend to ever get any), but I do know several people with more piercings than just earrings. I also understand why some people might not like piercings, principly for these reasons:

1) They look painful. I know GETTING a piercing can be painful, and I also know that after a while the pain goes away, but just looking a piercings makes me feel squemish - human beings generally don't go around with bits of metal inbedded in their flesh and seeing that sort of thing instinctively reminds me of pain.

2) They've been demonised - during the 80's, with Reagan in the White House, Americans, and by extension Hollywood, dreaded the rising of gangs and violence and drug wars. Having piercings was seen as being a "gang member" who went around eating the livers from dead babies. Ever seen that movie "Death Wish 3"? Where Charles Bronson goes around killing ANYONE with more than two piercings and dyed hair? Many people still think that if someone has a lot of piercings, they must be violent or wierd. I know that's not the case, but many still think that way.

I find piercings to be hooottt. All piercings

I used to have 4, but I only have 1 left and it's in my left nipple. I would provide pictures but I'd probably just get kicked off again haha

I absolutely love scaffold piercings so I think it'd be awesome if you did end up doing it =D

"Boing!"

Damn mods... we ought to get Cpt_Oblivious to set em straight... once again "Boing!"

 

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

Some are ok but it really depends some people go over board and do look stupid like plugs for example I think are disgusting or either the person just has way to many piercings.

Aslong as they are too plentyful in one place or to deforming to take out(i.e. plugs) and don't get in the way I wouldn't have a problem with them although if you have lots on your lower ear they end up like windchimes.

they LOOK painful but really aren't. they were maybe tender for a few minutes and a bit tender for the next day or two, after that they don't hurt at all. i've had piercings in 2 of the 3 most painful places and they weren't that bad

if you can bite your tongue hard for more than 10 seconds you've caused yourself more pain than a tongue piercing does

So far i only have a piercing in my left ear lobe, but I'm planing to get two or three in each ear, one in one of my eyebrows and one in my nose. But too many and too big/extreme piercings just look disgusting.

 

[z0nbie]

I have my nipples and 2 nape peircings, I would like more but I have to keep all my tattoo's and peircings hidden under a dress shirt ( work related ).

 

[Ladie Au Pair]

I have my ear lobes double pierced (although I rarely wear all 4, normally it's two or none), a hoop in my right ear's cartilage (that I couldn't get out if I tried), a bellyring (always in) and I have my nose pierced. I normally just wear a little stud, but occasionally wear a hoop. My boyfriend isn't a fan of the hoop so it doesn't come out too often. and I have to take it out for work sometimes.

I think I'm done with piercings. I considered getting my lip done once... but I backed out in the end.

I've moved on to tattoos now. Yay!

 

[MrGFunk]

Face piercing look fucking disgusting

This, but I let snakebites, nose piercings and normal ear piercings (the kind nearly ALL women have) slide.

What's a snakebite? Is it the madonna, top lip?

 

[Miss_M]

I have a small-ish tattoo on my right wrist, six piercings in my ears, one in my nose and a bar in my navel.
