Hi Sandy! I am thinking of getting another one as well! I have one on the inside of my left ankle (a crescent moon and star)and am thinking of either one across the small of my back or one either at the top of my foot or where my two smallest toes meet the foot. What and where is your current tattoo and what and where are you considering getting?

Ooh I love piercings! They look good on certain guys.
I have:
-3 holes in my right ear, 2 holes in left ear.
-my belly button for quite a few years now.
-my tongue for awhile now too.- This is def. my fave one!

Oh my--that IS beautiful! Sometimes I wish I had my belly pierced, but I'm too chicken to do it! I have my tongue, and I HAD my nose and eyebrow pierced..not to mention my tattoo, but I'm too chicken to get my belly pierced. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif

I know that this is all about belly rings, but here's a couple funny/gross stories...

#1 A girl that I had "talked" to for quite a bit, and we quasi-dated for a bit, before she decided to go lesbian, decided to get a ring for her, umm, clitoris....and had had it forever, with telling me...until I was sitting casually at her place one day, when she tossed something to me. Naturally, I caught it, as instinct instructs, and inquired it's nature. That's when I was informed exactly what sort of ring it truly was.

#2 A good friend of mine was at a party with me in my senior year, she was a sophomore (note: the last story is also when I was a senior). She had pierced her naval earler that day and resultingly was bleeding, which of course she felt natural due to her actions. Of course that was only until the 10th hour of mass bleeding, no alcohol was involved. We finally convinced that stubborn-donkey to go to the hospital and cleared her misfortune.

#3 another buddy of mine with nipple rings had them, umm, "removed" by his father by, umm, "force" He ripped them out

#4 another person I didn't know personally, but lived in the same village I do decided to get her tongue pierced, then did coke that night, and because of the accessibilty to the blood stream for the coke, she passed that evening

#5 I pierced my buddies ear with a safety-pin after my other best girl friends virtually killed him with a piercing earring, It was absolutely miserable. But interesting....

So, sorry for the negative twist on all that, but that's what insight can turn out to be on the occassion

Wow, interesting stories Cory.

When I lived on campus 2 years ago my old lesbian/bisexual/whatever she was roommate got her clitoris pierced. A day after that she and I went jogging on Cooke Field late that afternoon. After about 5-10 minutes on the track I noticed that her face was a bit flushed and she was panting! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif

It took me a while before I figured out what was going on. I was very impressed that it only took 5-10 minutes. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

Wow, that's all i have to say about that!

on the topic of pierced nipples, my gf's brother got one of his pierced one spring break. he ended up removing it eventually, but that nipple is almost always hard. it's pretty funny.

i was going to get my tongue pierced in high school, but the flap of skin under it goes out to far. now i'm glad i didn't get it done, mostly because it's fairly expensive, and it's something i would probably have gotten rid of by now, due to job interviews and such.

I got my tounge pierced.

Hey Billy! Where have you been hiding? We've missed you!!! Congrats on the tongue piercing... I've kinda wanted to do it but I'm way too chicken. :P

Hootie, that bar is SO cute! I want to get my ring changed to a bar after it heals, but for now it's just easier to take care of. It doesn't hurt anymore, but I still can't sleep on it! Anyway, I've gotten compliments from everyone I've showed it too, and I'm so glad I did it! How's yours doing? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Hey Orchid! I've been working and lifting weights over the summer. I won't make any more posts here untill after rush.

See ya in a few.

I have both of my ears pierced twice and I have my tongue pierced *YES I HAVE MY TONGUE PIERCED* Its not all that bad actually Im sure itll be coming out soon but hey I was 16 when I did it and it was soo cute to me then!! but at least I know if I take it out the whole will be unnoticeable!

I decied to post on this thread even tho it's been a while since someone did...last nite I got my tounge pierced. It's awesome. I love it. Today I was installed as our chapter's new pres and apparently some sisters are upset at me, unsure why I got pierced...an alumn who does a lot with our chapter apparently hates them and has spoken her opinion about the one or two sisters who have their tounges or other visible parts done...I don't get it. I know the piercing/tatoo world has a stigma attached to it esp with the older generation. But why would sisters be mad about the whole thing? My ears are pierced, my belly is too so what does my tounge being pierced add or detract from the person I am that they elected? I just needed to vent so thanks if you read this!! :)

Congratulations on getting your tongue pierced. I couldn't do it that's for sure!
Just this Friday my roomie and I both bought new belly rings and changed them on our own (for the first time). I so still want the one pictured above but I don't have $400 to spend to get it...especially if I'm not going to have my belly pierced forever ya know (kids someday).

get your tongue pierced.

I have my ears and belly button done. That didn't hurt, healed with no problems-I have a bar, b/c I was advised that a hoop will take longer to heal, and can catch on your clothes (yucky thought). I really, really want to get a small silver stud in my nose, but my family and Hunny are really having problems with that idea. My mom told me that I couldn't come over anymore if I did it...I'd hate to miss out on free dinners!!:D

And, I'm trying hard to convince myself that it won't hurt that bad, b/c it's just cartilage, and I've had that pierced before(cartilage, that is), and that wasn't so bad...trying hard....:D

So the original question was "What do you think when you see people with piercings?" I'll tell you what I think: "Damn, these people are brave!" I have three holes in each ear but for some reason when I take out my earrings they reclose very quickly! so I usually just wear earrings in the first holes, which I've had since first grade (I was a trendsetter). It took me 5 years to get up enough courage to get my belly button pierced, and I had to sit like a pregnant lady for a week, but it's cute and good motivation for me to keep doing crunches. :) It also impresses the teens I work with. As for the rest of my body, I am just too much of a wuss to get anything else done.
