It will be great when facial piercings go out of style, they're so gross. amirite?

depends, do you consider tounge piercings a facial piercing?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No, but I can't talk to someone when they are wearing a tongue ring. It's distracting and the idea of all the bacteria build up around them makes me cringe when I think about it. If you haven't seen what happens to people's tongues that wear those rings for a long time, you really should google it.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

not to sound sexist, but personally i think tongue piercings look better on guys. Not the emo guys though, an not ugly guys, but for example, shane kippel has a tongue piercing, and it looks good on him. if you dont know who he is, hes on degrassi. lol

I know everyone has their own opinion and to each his own, right? But personally, I can't find a single thing about tongue rings attractive on anybody. That's just me. I've always seen it as a fad someone marketed really well and like cattle to the slaughter, well, you get the picture.

i would never get my tongue pierced, it would most likely hurt.

Yeah, it does.. bit right through my tongue one time but it heals really fast.

i know from personal experience, a tounge piercing doesn't hurt at all... the worse part is the swelling for a few days afterward, and if you keep and anti inflammatory in you it won't be bad at all! most definitely the least painful piercing I've gotten!

They make your tongue swell and get inflamed and leave you talking like someone with Down's syndrome since they speak like they do since they also have an oversize tongue in their mouth.

i agree, they are gross. except for ear piercings, obviously.

I think hair with lots of gel or hairspray in it is gross, along with over an inch-long talon fake nails. I don't find anything gross about piercings, because a clean person will take good care of them the same way they take care of the rest of their body. However, I do agree tongue rings are a bad idea in the long run... having that metal in your mouth breaks down the enamel on your teeth over time, as well as chips and break you get from biting it on accident. Yes, I'm aware that they have acrylic jewelery- if you go that route, better always have extra, because my friends have swallowed dozens of them in their sleep or while eating. But regular piercings in the skin of your face are no grosser or harder to keep clean than earrings.

I was referring to how I think they are gross to look at but thank you for your opinion too.

Well I have my septum pierced and my tongue pierced twice. That sounds ridiculously gross if you haven't saw them though. My septum ring is small and suits my nose, and you can't even see my tongue rings unless I show you them. Also in terms of hygiene, my tongue rings are too far back to interfere with my teeth and it's not hard to clean them at all.

There so is nothing gross about it. Anything that's overdone is disgusting. I have ten earrings and an eyebrow ring and i have very conservative people coming over to me all the time telling me how tastefully it's done.

Wow... it takes a teeny, tiny, narrow mind to have difficulty looking at someone because you disapprove of their jewelery. You admit that you used "gross" not out of any actual dirtiness, but just because it's not your preference. The world is going to be very upsetting for you, princess... just stay around all the preppy, ultra-conformed people you're probably comfortable with, and you won't have to worry about people's strange and rebellious fashion choices. Oh yeah, and I agree hair with a lot of product in it is gross. Blech.

I think one or two look fine. I think it's gross if someone has tons of facial piercings though. Like, both nostrils, both eyebrows, snake bites, a monroe, and their septum then they've gone too far. I know I have my nose pierced, and it doesn't look bad. It's not big or anything.

I usually don't mind piercings but one time I saw a group of friends, each with at least 10 piercings on their faces! And one of them had at least 20. It was truthfully impossible to see her skin! Ever since those guys I have started to perceive piercings differently

Nah, I like the look of piercings. I agree that it can be definitely overdone, but they can definitely enhance some people's appearances. I'd like to get a labret piercing some time, maybe next summer if my parents let me, but I wouldn't do anything other than that. My sister has her septum pierced and seeing her with it I wouldn't ever want one.

Piercings aren't a new practice, its been around for like all time, there are cave paintings of people getting their ears pierced, and in ancient cultures piercings meant certain things or set you to a social status and some times even showed royalty

The worlds oldest discovered mummified man's body had a lot of piercings and tattoos. It is beyond a fad for many people. A large amount of modified people are not doing it for its popularity or how it is trendy. Piercings and tattoo's are not only a fetish for some but a spiritual thing for others. They go beyond a fashion fad that comes and goes like leggings and lego hair. I have tattoo's from on the head down and 30 piercings, with only 5 on one ear and 2 on the other. I wont go into detail but needless to say you wont be looking at me, thankfully for me as no way would we get along. It may be a majority hate, but it is still intolerance and discriminatory. Sure some people do it to rebel and look cool. Some of us have it for beliefs and enhancement, slam other peoples beliefs and keep a narrow mind. At the end of the day you will never learn much of lifes gifts as you are busy trying to belittle those who share this world that is troubled enough without you trying to nit ...

You're not some prehistoric cave person, and probably not some indigenous person where they have those out of tradition and deep cultural meaning. You're probably just some vapid soulless modern person who thinks they can pierce and ink their way into deep meaning and relevance your personality and life lacks, and that's why people stare at you and give you a bad time for your tatts and extra metal baubles across your head and body.

I guess what bothers me the most about piercing and tattoos is seeing some dead beat parent covered head to toe with one or both bragging about them while puffing on a cigarette with their four pack a day habit while they are complaining about child support they can't pay because its too high but all the money they spend on these things could go to feed their kids which should be their first priority. Those people make the rest of you look just as bad. These are all selfish, shallow habits.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I'm going to go ahead and assume that you're a preppy little bitch, which I can do. since you assume that all people with piercings are shallow. the people you hang out with, are the shallow ones. sorry, but it's true. I have zero facial piercings, but I have enough respect to let people individualize themselves without critisism. yeah, some people get piercings to rebel, but most of them do it because they WANT to. nothing else. personal choice. is it just piercings and tattoos? or do you have a problem with colored hair, plastic surgery, tanning, and anything else that is "changing the way the body naturally looks"? I'm going to go ahead and guess you think those things are fine. because people NEVER go and get giant fake boobs because they're shallow. you need to grow the fuck up and learn not to discriminate. it's discriminatory motherfuckers like you that caused segregation to go on in the US for as long it did. and STILL cause people to get judged by how they look. it's pathet...

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Resorting to foul language and name calling is so mature but I do agree with you on one point... getting large fake boobs is shallow, however, some women have had to have mastectomies because of breast cancer so if they have had to get reconstructive surgery because of this then more power to them. My heart goes out to all those women. I didn't really read the rest of your post because ranting and raving foul mouthed people like yourself bore me. Resorting to foul language, as many of us know, is usually a result of a limited vocabulary. So I wish you the best in your future education, you're going to need it. Call me all the names you wish, I've been called worse than you have came up with so far. I'm expecting a lot more creativity on your post so please don't disappoint me again.

you're implying that I'm stupid. which I'm not. my deepest apologies if I "bore you". I can't deal with people who judge a book by it's cover. which you are doing. it's narrow minded, especially in today's society. like I said, I apologize. just from reading about certain types of people that I would usually assume are stupid or not worth anyone's time, I can't judge people. the town I'm from, is a really tolerant place when it comes to pretty much everything. it's just how I, and most of the people I know are. I don't care if people aren't as "chill" as I am about some things, as long as they don't riot against it. it's just unfair. but it's your opinion, and I do indeed respect it, believe it or not. I was pissed off when I wrote that. sorry for letting my anger get the best of me.

I truly appreciate you taking the time to explain yourself, I know you didn't have to do that. Just so we're clear, I was pointing out how easy it is to jump right to using expletives and it really gets us no where. And I was raised to be very tolerant but in a different direction. I respect all races and nationalities holding no prejudices for the color or lack of color in another's skin. That doesn't mean I condone their behavior. In today's society it seems that so many people demand you accept everything or you're a horrible person. There are much bigger problems than whether or not someone accepts what others do to their bodies. It takes a big person to admit when they've been rash. I can respect that. Apology accepted!

Like I said, good for you but I'm never going to take someone with metal sticking out of their face seriously. You obviously have plenty of time to still grow up so maybe at some point you will out grow this self centered behavior. A lot of people do. What I'm saying is that your gross piercings are distracting me from seeing the real you. If you had any memorable quality it was erased because my eyes were trying to avoid staring into flesh encrusted metal. As a rule, I look people in the face when I'm talking to them but I just can't do that when they have a facial piercing and that's not my fault because I didn't put it there.
