What
is your opinion of body piercing? I have no problem with it. Seems like as much a form of
expression as picking out an outfit. However, all piercing should be done with low risk of
infection and by a professional. Having a friend jab a needle into you when you are drunk
is not a pleasant experience.

More power to you if it's your thing, but I
think it looks kind of dumb. And I just can't imagine when someone's 60 how they're
going to feel all scarred up. Or when your body rejects the piercing and makes some ugly
skin tag.

I don't have any of my own but to
each his own I suppose. I don't like to see all over
the face...you know, overkill. I actually think it's a little offensive to look at in that
case. But I think it's ok here and there. My 15 year-old daugher has a couple of piercings
on each ear, but other than that, I told her she can wait till she's 18 to decide just how
far she wants to go with it.

I do not like it. A belly ring looks sexy
but facial, tongue , and too many ear piercings gross me out. I can not help but think you
must have a lot of anger directed at yourself to mutilate yourself so.

I think they are neat. As long as the person
doesn't have like 50. One or two piercings are cool.

Funny you should ask. I have about 9
piercings and I'm getting a new one soon. I feel like if my body is my temple, I should be
decorating it. It's a iberating feeling, the one that I get after having something
feeling. I feel like I just overcame myself.

I think it's sexy, but not the big
holes. I think naval rings are cute and so are nose
piercings. I know a girl who has a pointy piercing from the inside of her chin. It looks
kind of dangerous!

I think if I were younger (I'm 36) I would
probably have gotten my belly-button pierced. That's as far as I would have gone myself
with piercings...although I think everyone should be entitled to do with their own body as
they please.

I think it's good in moderation. I have my
ears pierced and a nipple, but I's also like to do my nose - maybe But that's it. People
get addicted to it and it just looks horrible. Navel rings are horrible. So are those
things that pierce and stretch out earlobes.

Earrings? I accept earrings. Multiple
earrings? I accept multiple earrings. Eyebrows, noses, tongues, nipples and navels (and
all areas covered by a bathing suit)--not my style, but I'm not going to interfere.

Its fine. Although i think some of those
people who are heavily pierced have made themselves rather ugly and freakish, hey its
their body.

Knock your socks off! It's your
body, you're free to pierce whatever you want. While
I'm sorta squeamish and anti-pain (I hated getting my ears pierced), I've got no problem
with piercings on others, and I usually think they look quite cool. Someday I might get up
the courage to pierce something else, but untill I have the money and the tolerance
for pain, I doubt it'll happen.
Hikaru, 19

I assume you mean piercing
outside the earlobe, yes? I have no problem with it. I find some types of piercings - such
as the industrial - to be attractive and would consider getting one myself. Others,
like the madison, are fascinating. And I've thought about getting my nipples or labia
pierced, but so far I'm not planning to go through with it.

I think it's a pretty silly fad. And a sure
sign of immaturity. I'm glad my kids are too old for that.

I don't see anything wrong with it. IF I can
ever get up the nerve, I'd like to pierce my tongue.
Angela, 18

Ya know, there really are some
things I simply don't have an opinion on... and this is
one of them. I don't have any piercings but that doesn't mean I think it is right or
wrong, it just means I choose not to have them. For those who have them, great! For those
who don't, great! I could care less either way.
Doug2, 29

It's ok on certain people. I wouldn't have
any done, but it does look great on other people.
Brad, 21

I like body piercings. I have my navel
pierced, my eyebrow pierced twice, and I also have the labret (the one between your bottom
lip and your chin). I think they're awesome. If you don't like body piercings don't get
them. If you do, go ahead. Besides it's probably just a passing phase. I'm not going to
have them forever. Someday I'll take them off......someday.
Patty, 19

I'd be a big fat hypocrite if I said I
didn't like it. I have (or have had) my ears, nose, eyebrow, tongue, and navel pierced at
one time or another... I'm also not against tattoos, either..
Nicci, 27

Well, I don't have anything against it, but
I probably won't have anything else pierced. My ears are pierced once, and that's enough
for me. Body piercing is for some people, but probably not for me at this time in my life.
Lisa J., 23

In my opinion, it's this thing
people do so they can wear jewelry in parts of their
bodies that they wouldn't be able to otherwise.
Karen, 22

I'm of the wrong generation to appreciate
anything beyond pierced ears. In most cases, I don't really care what other people choose
to do to their bodies, but seeing people with pierced tongues tends to make me want to
gag.

body peircing is good in moderation. I don't
like under sking peircings and things (you know, the ones down your arms or back), but
facial, ears, and *useful* ones are fine in moderation. Some facial peircings don't suit
some people though. Not a problem as long as they realise it, as peircings grow over, but
people who don't realise a peircing doesnt suit them make me cring sometimes!
