  1. 1. Which piercings do you want?



Recommended Posts

Guest Ariel Mai

I just am thinking about what I want pierced right now and I am getting my 2nd hole on my ears, I am getting my belly button, cartilage, and top of the nose (stud). So many girls my age have all the piercings I named done except the belly button , but a lot of my friends want their belly button pierced. I think they are fun, and if they fit, they can look absolutely amazing. My mom told me she would take me to get my ears done, but she said I would have to wait till estrogen has its effects then loose weight and have a nice body before getting my belly button pierced. So I have a bit of time for that to happen, but ears are soon. Anyways what would you guys/ and gals like to have done piercing wise?

Lots of Love,

Ariel

I'm going to get both my ears pierced this summer. I want to get girly earings and I'm feeling more daring than my parents are but my mom doesn't want to push it too much. She's afraid I'll get beat up. What we're doing instead is getting plastic earings because they don't look girly at all but at least they're rings. They aren't the studs that guys normally get they just look cheap. I wish I could just wear whatever I feel like but there is the safety issue.

Already have 2 holes in each ear. But would like to get a nose stud one day possibly and if I can ever drop the weight I will be rewarding myself with a belly ring.

I had my ears pierced in Feb. I may go have my belly button done, but thats it. Forget all those facial piercings and the nipples, OUCH! I'll leave those for someone else.

I have 4 in each ear and have a rook in my right ear. The rook really hurt but I like it. I had my belly button done but took it out after it got infected after it was already healed. I could have put it back in after the infection was gone but decided against it.

I do want to get a nose stud but probably will never get it done because of work.

WELL. I already have plugs in my ears but they aren't gross or huge at all. But a lot of guys at my school are getting like one of the tops of their ears pierced, i think its called the cartilage or something haha i dunno it kinda looks cool, I'm contemplating it.

I'm thinking both ears, but asymmetrical in number. Two each in the right and left lobe and two in the left top cartilage is an image that's been sitting in my mind for a while. Nowhere else, though. I hate needles enough after the tattoos.

I already have 2 gauge plugs in both ears, plus an extra normal sized piercing in one, plus an eyebrow piercing... I was thinking of maybe getting an industrial piercing done too, and a tattoo. I'll probably wait until I've been on T for a while before getting the tattoo, though, as it'll be around my upper arm, and I don't want it to stretch if I get significantly more buff or something :)

I have all the piercings I want now. I had more but I've let a few of them go for a more traditional female look.

I have my ears pierced 3 times in each ear but now I just wear one pair of earrings.

I've got my nose pierced.

I've got my tongue pierced.

I had my labret pierced but I'm letting that one close up.

I had an industrial in each ear, too, but I'm letting those two close as well.

I had my belly button pierced, too, but that just didn't work for me so I took that one out as well.

..I went through a goth phase a few years ago.

Yeah I am thinking about getting an industrial done. :)

Oh and I am gauging my first hole on the lobes to a small size to i can still wear regular earrings without it looking ridiculous, or plugs w/e i feel like at the time. I am defintly getting belly button done. Yeah I am not a huge fan about facial piercings on myself. I dont mind them on others as long as you dont gauge lip rings....

I want a tattoo but have no clue what to get done.

I wear studs in guy mode and put in girl earrings in girl mode, thank goodness that i only have 10 more school days before full time :)

I have the cartilage in my left ear pierced once. I always wanted one there but never had any desire for anywhere else. I always felt that getting my ears pierced in the usual place would look stupid on me...to girly. I know some guys could carry it off but not me.

Surprise tongue isn't on the poll, speaking of which, I am going to that this week. I have both ears pierced but I want more there and I want a lip piercing I just dont know which, oh and still contemplating the bellybutton one.

If you get an industrial, you won't be able to sleep on that side until it heals up..like a month or two later.

Don't take this the wrong way, I'm just throwing it out there in general. I would avoid getting a Monroe. I have seen it many times but of those many times, it only looked good on about 3 girls. I think a small stud nose ring is really cute and it's girlie. I don't like a septum piercing on anyone. It looks ridiculous and makes you look like a bull.

But that's just my opinion. I went through my piercing phase back in 2004 so now I've just settled in to what piercings I like and which ones, to me, were worth keeping. I've shyed away from gauging because it's a permanent thing and consider having a large hole in your ear may not be considered professional when trying to interview for that dream job after college.

Gauges close up Lizzie, well for the most part they do, many of my friends had them and when they took them out there took a few weeks to get back to a normal earring size but they did. I wasn't going to go to big prolly an 8 which is small still. How much does an industrial hurt, it is still a maybe for me I think it would be cute. Yeah I forgot tongue, I don't think I want my tongue done, but yeah a nose stud I want. Yeah monroes only look good on some people. I have only seen 3 people who septums have actually looked good on. They are super hard to pull off, or like lizzie said you look like a bull.

I had an Industrial, Wrist, Snake bites, ankle, Hips, Belly, and the normal ear piercing. But now i have only the industrial, lobes and snake bites. I know belly buttons you have to maintain and clean constantly or else it gets infected and stinks and stuff.

I definately want to pierce my nose and possibly lips! :D

Perhaps ears as well if I feel like it at some point, though I don't really like ear jewelery that is just a rounded shape or hanging dingling from the ear, it would have to be something special for me to pierce my ears I think..perhaps something that connects from the cartilage to the lower part of the ear.

/dreammode_off and back to reality :(

One day...ONE DAY!

An industrial kinda hurts since you're essentially getting 2 piercings and joining them with a bar. Mine was tender for a few months until it healed. From my experience, the tongue hurt the least but I have active saliva glands so I drooled a bit during the prep and set up. Also once the swelling went down and it was all healed up I took out the metal testicles and switched them for more prettier non-metal testicles. I haven't chipped a tooth or anything. I also don't play with it. Some times by accident I'll bite down on it which freaks me out because I don't want to crack a tooth or the ball on the piercing. I used to have one that was flat on top and a regular ball on the bottom. The flat part had an image of Hello Kitty. :)

...I've grown out of that.

I have both my ears pierced, but I only ever wear one earring. The only time I ever have both earrings in is if it's a fancy occasion, like a wedding. Or something (rarely though) if I can't decide between which earring I wanna wear I'll wear both. They won't match though :P

I would LOVE to get snakebites, one of my fav piercings and I would love it. But it would just look weird on me, I wouldn't be able to pull it off. :(

      My mother's maiden name is Schwinegruber, and to say that cabbage in all forms of use for our dinner table is an understatement.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      So, I jumped on the "E" train last week and am about 10 days into my HRT journey. I have the tiniest patch available. I laughed when I opened it. "This little thing is supposed to give me more feminine characteristics?"   I haven't really felt much of anything so far, not that I expected to at this point. I am really, really tired but that may be other factors (like staying up too late to watch NCAA basketball every night). The one noticeable difference is that my libido seems to be a lot more subdued. Not that I am proud of this, but the big M was a practically a daily part of life for me. My daily comfort and way to get an endorphin hit or just deal with loneliness. The past week, though, has been, "meh." Is that the HRT tamping things down? Or just a normal down cycle for me? Not sure yet. Time will tell.   I have been very quiet about things overall. Only a few people know. No one in my immediate family. I fear the backlash I will get when they find out. Worst- case scenario, my daughters stop talking to me. That would kill me. I hope I can show them over time, "See, I am still me."   Met with my endo on Wednesday. He is good for me to up the dose when I feel comfortable. For now, I think I am going to stand pat and take things nice and slow. Of course, I could see myself tomorrow asking him to send in the script for the higher dose...   I keep asking myself, what is the end game with all of this. Unlike many on here, I don't have a concrete answer yet. I am not convinced I will "go all the way" and change my name and ID, etc. Part of me would love to soldier on just as I am but with a lot more feminine physical characteristics and a more distinctly feminine wardrobe. What does that make me? Non-binary? Not sure.  Again, I am just me, as unorthodox as that is...   All I know is that this is something I want to do. I am comfortable walking this path for now. Again, we'll see. As always, would appreciate any feedback the more experienced folks may have. Blessings to all!    EasyE

      I grew up with it, my mother's side were Germans.  I still like cabbage.  I make a sweet/sour dish with vinegar and brown sugar, add some bacon if you have it.  And in warmer weather, slaw.  I like that better if it's a few days old, and has worked off a little.

      Good Friday Morning    I will be spending a good portion of my day at church today.  I don’t know how any of my family would have been with me.  They all passed before I figured myself out.  I often think my mother and sister may have figured it out before I did but maybe it was just my depression that they saw.  I don’t know and never will.  My grandfather Young unconditionally loved me but he passed when I was 9.   Same with my wife’s parents, both gone before.  We’ve never had the greatest relationship with my wife’s brother but we do see them occasionally.  They words and actions aren’t always in sink when it comes to me.   Sour kraut or boil cabbage were never big even with my parents so that was something we were never expected to eat.  Nor was anything with mustard.  My mother hated mustard and it turns my stomach. My wife tried to sneak it into things early in our marriage but I could always tell.  She stopped after a while.   well I wave to go get ready to go to church.  I have a committee meeting at 10 and then we have a Good Friday Service at noon.   Willow

      Good morning everyone,   @KymmieLI hope you're misreading your bosses communications. As you say keep plugging a long. Don't give them signs that you're slow quitting, just to collect unemployment.   I have a few things to do business wise, and will be driving to the St. Louis, MO area for two family gatherings.   Have a great day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good morning everyone, TGIFF   It seems like I am the one keeping or shop from being the best. According to the boss. I don't know if my days are numbered or not. But anymore I am waiting for the axe to fall. Time will tell.   I keep plugging a long.   Kymmie

      What is relaxation to you? Nature? Movie? Reading? Cuddling with a pet? Music?

      Having just a normal emotional day.

      AMUSEMENT The feeling when you encounter something silly, ironic, witty, or absurd, which makes you laugh. You have the urge to be playful and share the joke with others. Similar words: Mirth Amusement is the emotional reaction to humor. This can be something that is intended to be humorous, like when someone tells a good joke or when a friend dresses up in a ridiculous costume. But it can also be something that you find funny that was not intended to be humorous, like when you read a sign with a spelling error that turns it into an ironic pun. For millennia, philosophers and scholars have been attempting to explain what exactly it is that makes something funny. This has led to several different theories. Nowadays, the most widely accepted one is the Incongruity Theory, which states that something is amusing if it violates our standards of how things are supposed to be. For example, Charlie Chaplin-style slapstick is funny because it violates our norms of competence and proper conduct, while Monty Python-style absurdity is funny because it violates reason and logic. However, not every standard or norm violation is necessarily funny. Violations can also evoke confusion, indignation, or shock. An important condition for amusement is that there is a certain psychological distance to the violation. One of the ways to achieve this is captured by the statement ‘comedy is tragedy plus time’. A dreadful mistake today may become a funny story a year from now. But it can also be distant in other ways, for instance, because it happened to someone you do not know, or because it happens in fiction instead of in real life. Amusement also needs a safe and relaxed environment: people who are relaxed and among friends are much more likely to feel amused by something. A violation and sufficient psychological distance are the basic ingredients for amusement, but what any one person find funny will depend on their taste and sense of humor. There are dozens of ‘humor genres’, such as observational comedy, deadpan, toilet humor, and black comedy. Amusement is contagious: in groups, people are more prone to be amused and express their amusement more overtly. People are more likely to share amusement when they are with friends or like-minded people. For these reasons, amusement is often considered a social emotion. It encourages people to engage in social interactions and it promotes social bonding. Many people consider amusement to be good for the body and the soul. By the end of the 20th century, humor and laughter were considered important for mental and physical health, even by psychoneuroimmunology researchers who suggested that emotions influenced immunity. This precipitated the ‘humor and health movement’ among health care providers who believed that humor and laughter help speed recovery, including in patients suffering from cancer1). However, the evidence for health benefits of humor and laughter is less conclusive than commonly believed2. Amusement is a frequent target of regulation: we down-regulate it by shifting our attention to avoid inappropriate laughter, or up-regulate it by focusing on a humorous aspect of a negative situation. Interestingly, amusement that is purposefully up-regulated has been found to have the same beneficial physical and psychological effects as the naturally experienced emotion. Amusement has a few clear expressions that emerge depending on the intensity of the emotion. When people are mildly amused, they tend to smile or chuckle. When amusement intensifies, people laugh out loud and tilt or bob their head. The most extreme bouts of amusement may be accompanied by uncontrollable laughter, tears, and rolling on the floor. Most cultures welcome and endorse amusement. Many people even consider a ‘good sense of humor’ as one of the most desirable characteristics in a partner. At the same time, most cultures have (implicit) rules about what is the right time and place for amusement. For example, displays of amusement may be deemed inappropriate in situations that demand seriousness or solemness, such as at work or during religious rituals.
