Not I, but I’ve always found peircings to be intriguing, whether it was the lip, brow, nose, navel. The “bull” nose ring always looks so scary yet alluring at the same time. Tougue rings look very cool, but seem like they’d take a long time to get used to. And what about nipple peircings? Do you people get them because you know you’ll want to show them off? I mean, why get them if hardly anyone will see them? Then there’s the genitaila peircings like the Prince Albert and the clithood. Damn, talk about temporary insanity. Any of these things peirced on you? ---

My navel is pierced. Few people get to see it, but my girlfriend thinks it’s hot. ---

No part of me is pierced. ---

I have my eyebrow, tongue, and nostril pierced. I’ve got two nostril piercings, actually (on the same side). The barbell in my tongue I had to take out while I was in labor four and a half years ago, and never got around to putting it back in. The hole’s still there, though. 😛 I really like lower-lip piercings, but, because of the way it looks when the jewelry is out, I wouldn’t want to have one. I have no interest in getting below-the-neck piercings, either. They just don’t appeal to me. ---

0g earlobes. Right Nostil, Bottom Lip, Tongue, Nipples, Navel. I got my nipples pierced because I had almost no sensitivity in them before. Seriously, they were my least painful piercing. But now . . . good times. ---

Least painful? Mine felt like someone was slowly driving a nail through my chest. ---

I used to have an eyebrow and nipple piercing (eyebrow wouldn’t heal: allergic to the metal) nipple kept ripping. (yes, ripping) I got my nipple pierced because it was scarred and deformed from an infected bug bite when I was pubescent. I wanted to ‘prettify’ it and ended up getting super increased sensation as well as correcting the inversion caused by the scar. ---

Nipple. It’s a little more sensitive now. They were very sensitive to begin with. It took a long time to heal, and still gives me trouble sometimes, but it gets me lots of attention when I take my shirt off. ---

I’ve got my right nipple pierced. I don’t have any other “body art” – not a fan of tattoos, nor most facial piercings. Basically, I just like the concept of having that one weird piercing. Oh, and a great benefit of nipple piercings (I’m a heterosexual male, btw) is that if you know girls who have theirs pierced, you can play you-show-me-yours-i-show-you-mine 😉 ---

I have my navel pierced. I also have the cartilege in my upper ear pierced. ---

Five in left ear, one in right. Navel. Clit hood. :eek: Nipples next. ---

Just my tongue, and I very rarely wear it these days. I don’t really fancy anything else, and considering how quickly I got bored of having my tongue piercing, its probably best to leave the well alone! ---
