well it is fashion of some sort, and whatever- to each their own,
Personally with piercings, I used to have them all over at one time, now none-- for me it was more of "self image and rebel on what people did not accept so easily" (my mom was a big person that really did not like the sort-- but it was a way to be rebellious and yeah I did like some of them and how they looked).. I get urges from time to time for piercings today, it is usually when i am stressed (in combination of other urges too)- I knew one friend that piercings were a form self mutilation however, it was safer than cutting; so

To each their own.
