**Go You Big Red Fire Engine** and **Guinastasia** seem to be in the group of women who don’t think their vertical smiles are pretty. It’s a shame that they feel that way. I’ve never seen one that wasn’t lovely. I’ve never seen one with jewelry on it upclose, but I’ve seen some of those in porn videos. It never seemed to me that the hardware made them prettier.

I dunno, maybe it’s just me, but I think they look like old wads of chewed up gum.
But then, I guess it’s not how it _looks_ that counts.
**Go You Big Red Fire Engine** -that site you just linked to had my own bit crawl into my rib cage in fear. :eek:

Maybe it’s just me, but I actually like the feeling of a tongue against my privates. Adding something else just ruins it for me.
I should have it done in about a week, so I’ll report back then.
Haha, nice one flickster 😉

I know you were just joking, but I am pretty sure most piercers are men. Also, they are generally very professional and no-nonsense. The good ones are, anyway. If any female has any harassment by a male (or female) piercer during a genital piercing, she should file a complaint with every organization possible, starting with the state licensing board.

[QUOTE=AskNott I’ve never seen one that wasn’t lovely. [/QUOTE]
Really? You have _never_ seen anyone with anything other than a lovely looking beaver? I could send you some pictures that may change your opinion of that…
As for clitoral piercings I think they can be really cute plus it acts like a big neon sign that says ‘Place tongue here and lap away like a starved kitten in a cream factory’.

Missbunny, I think you misread flickster’s post. I believe it was a joke about male difficulty in finding the “right spot” not about being molested.

Ok, I have an appointment for it tomorrow at 2. I’m trying to psych up. I don’t have anyone to go with me so I’m going all alone. ☹
I’ll report back tomorrow night.
Cheers

In comparisson to other piercings I’ve had, the clit hood heals very quickly and is relatively painless.
It added a little sensation but it’s best use was “No, the thing with the ring through it”. Once I found someone that had a clue what they were doing I took it out as it only got in the way.

They can get caught on/in things.

How quickly? What did you use to cleanse while healing? Any things to especially avoid?
Pardon the questions, I want to be as informed as possible, so give me anything you got.
Cheers
Engine.

Well I had it done today. Didn’t hurt, much. Hurt about for, 2 hours afterwards, just a slight stinging. It’s a bit swollen at the moment, I gave it a quick clean with some salty water. It bled, but not much, it took a while to get the ball on. Other than that, I hope it’s a no drama and it heals quickly.

I’m feeling pained just thinking about it - and I don’t even _have_ a clitoris!
Still, thinking about metal bolts in private parts is still preferable to studying for exams.
