Does your school actually have a policy against wearing jewelry in Gym?

YIKES!!

What you can do is get your jewelry to where it is open enough for you to be able to get it in and out. It takes practice to get used to technique but once you get the hang of it it would be fine. It doesn't really hurt either...sometimes a little pinch/pull but not bad. Once you get the hang of it, you can get a clear acrylic stud that you can place there that is barely visible and most people don't notice it.

But...unless there is a written policy at your school about not being allowed to wear body jewelry...I say screw the gym instructor...It's your body...and if your parents don't have an issue with it then he should just get over it. If he doesn't like it he can take it to the school board and complain to them. They'll tell him he has to much time on his hands and to go home.

I work in the medical field and I get the occasional combative patient that likes to take a swing at me or grab for my face. My nasal screw has been the safest, most secure piercing I have and it's never been injured. I also have an eyebrow piercing and both conches pierced along with two in my upper ear (helix). Never had problems with any of them on the job, at school, or out in society.

You have a better chance of getting your hair caught in the Volleyball net...so maybe he'd like you to shave your head too? LOL!!

Take care.
