Oh, my most favorite thing. Body Mods. hehe. i have had so many, but with parents and all a LARGE portion of them are gone. I currently have 3 lobes (0 G, and two 14G) a tragus (14G)(Tragus is little piece of catiledge by the hole of your ear), Labret (12G)
I have had:
Tongue (4 or 5 times), Ears out the wa-hoo, lip multiple times, eyebrow... uhm... I cant even think of it all. And I want my tongue to keep and some tattoos!

I hold nothing against people with any amount of piercings, but often I'll have to look away if someone has piercings all over because it can gross me out thinking about what they had to go through. Also I would defenitly be less likely to date a girl that had more than her ears peirced, not like it matters.
I myself will probably be getting a tattoo soon.

well, nothing has changed since the last thread, so i still just have my cartilage in my left ear pierced. i've always said that i want a chinese dragon's head tattoo on my back, but i think thats never gonna happen, bc it would be expensive.

Once i have a job, im hoping that they will allow me to keep my peircing, if so, then im gonna change it to an orbital peircing. Only other thing is that i think tattoos on a girl's lower back is sexy.

I don't know why I don't like it, it just is unnatractive to me. Ear piercings can be alright, but I just don't really like belly button piercing, and other stuff. I just don't find it sexy to have huge things all over your body *shrugs*

Due to parental reasons, I can't really do too much. All I have are three lobe percings, one being an 8 gauge and one being a 14 gauge (the rst normal) and two cartlige. I want to get my lip done and plan to as soon as I'm old enough, eyebrow two. As for tattoos...want a couple of them too.

18 will come sooner then you think! I remember when I turned 18 I went to get my nipples pierced the day.

....so um how exactly are you going to sterlize the needle with by burning it and with alcohol...and let me assume that you're using a sewing needle...that is BRILLANT!

I'd love to be able to get my tongue pierced. I've always found that to be soooo damn sexy on women. However, I'm so intolerant of pain that I don't think I'd ever be able to go through with it. Or perhaps I'd like to get my canines done in to fangs. That'd be wickedly hot!
As far as others having body modifications, I'm all for it. Your body is a work of art! It's your canvas for creative inspiration! I say, express yourself the way you'd like! Just be sure that what you do is what YOU want cause you'll more than likely be living with it for the rest of your life.

Just don't get a bunch of piercings and expect to work in an office or as a profesional sales/marketing person....they still frown upon that. It'll take years for business to lighten up...

Ugh, it is decisions like that that give the people with body modificaiton a bad rep. I can understand not wanting to wait till your of legal age to get piercings, I also can understand that some people dont want to pay money for oh, I dont know a PROFESSIONAL piercer to do it. What I can't understand is that you would lack the intelligence to just wait and go to a professional where you know its going to hurt less, and be sterile...so there would be no risk of infection.
The hollow needles that you are referring to are called beveled needles, lets just hope they are autoclaved, because that IS THE ONLY WAY FOR THEM TO BE COMPLETLY STERILE! Boiling and alcohol doesn't do shit for "sterlizing" needles.
From BMEzine.com
"A sewing needle is of course a metal rod with a loop on the end used to carry thread through pieces of material with the intent of joining them together. Most sewing needles can not be sterilized as they will rust, not being made of stainless steel or titanium.
They're not used much in body modification except sometimes as a play piercing item, and by grandmothers to pierce ears (often with the aid of an ice cube and potato).
For the purposes of flesh sewing, a suture needle is far more appropriate."
Forgive my rant, but that is just freaking stupid to go through with your boyfriend letting you pierce your nipple(s). It dangerous, irresponsible, immature, and not to mention stupid. Have fun ruining your nipples...
