Piercings or tattoos, anyone?

Fine line, now. I can’t speak for female genitalia but I think that I’ve known more people with tongue piercings than any other and the piercing is usually done so as to enhance the pleasure of their lovers. A charitable piercing? A giving of oneself for the greater good?

You become accustomed to these things. Like reading glasses. Losing limbs.

Speaking only for myself (as an example of possible reasonings for female genitalia piercings) I will speak of my nipple piercings (dear, gesus, surely a woman might speak up?): I have normal male nipples. Maybe ¼ inch? Have always been highly sensitive. I wear rings most days and derive incredible pleasure when pressure is applied. And there is the fine line.

Some piercings are highly sensualized. For oneself or ones partners. Having intercourse with a total of 24 labia minora piercings can create pleasures for both partners.

Yikes. I didn’t mean to get into this! Yes, some piercings and tattoos are sensual-sexualized. My bars/rings at visible when I wear tight t-shirts and tank-tops (but I dress just to go to the mailbox so... not everyone knows).

The answers are interesting - maybe I’ll pull a Sartre in re piercings and tats!

I really enjoy nostril piercings on people - especially on men.

Tats of...the California coast...lots of poppies, both Calif poppies and opium poppies on my body...cats worked in...a voodoo doll that I actually own; had him tattooed on my inner arm. A prayer in Tibetan, an anarchy symbol on my hand.

Ex-wife was stripper/model/MA in French Literature. Only one piercing, ankle tat. Long story/great girl/despicable me. Met at political rally in Dogville, Before The Flood.

Yah, free candy. Smart, smart girls. Wind you up, what? Smarter than you!

Bars that ‘knit’ labia are easily removed.

Go for the gold and put the Sanskrit prayer happiness and freedom.

I have four tattoos and I am just about ready for more.
I love tattoos as well as the experience of getting them.
The pain of getting tattooed is not really a big deal at all.
Go for it but remember they are very very addictive.
It is very rare that a person only gets one tattoo.
You only live once, enjoy your tattoo.

Well placed marks heal; dependant upon instruments used - anything from common hairbrush to... use your imagine.

Blood? Not enough to notice, really. Usually accidental.

Kink. Kinky. Kinkier. NYMPHOMANIAC - volumes 1 & 2, Lars Von Trier. DEPRESSIVE SERIES, in order, ANTICHRIST, MELANCHOLIA & NYMPHOMANIC 1 & 2.

Some of us. Who we are, in large part. I drive trucks; call me a truck driver.

Being that I was born in La Jolla, I believe that we must be related.

I will get, and dedicate, my nostril piercing to you. And Nancy. And Laura, Greg, Greg, Cathy and Jim.

Poppies, oh, yes; that spike in my vein that let’s me know that I’m a man.

Today I sat with another, much older, legless man; a neighbor. He told me that he stopped drinking in 1972 but didn’t stop drugs until 1982. He snorted hair-on for 10 years. Feigning apoplexy, I screamed, “snorted? Snorted!”

Some people just can’t get their kit together.

You inspire me.

First, my neck.

Then. Gosh, I haven’t thought that far!

My right forearm. What did I Love most? Well, yes. It would take a TRUE ARTIST but it could be done... Google is my friend.

Thanks!

This is all too weird for me. Unsubscribe

Thank you. I've seen jewelry cleaner specifically for silver or gold jewelry, and I think most of mine is silver, but they have crystals and decorations, and I don't want to mess those up. Most of my favorite (and most expensive) pieces are by Betsey Johnson.

Nipples? Eek! I bow down to your bravery, sir!

Oh, so, if I stop buying the cheap stuff, I won't have this problem? Awesome! It's totally worth it, and I do prefer expensive things, usually. I can't help it.

Med-grade SS, cheap, cheap titanium - https://store.painfulpleasures.com - tell ‘em ciderguy sent ya.

Yeah, I have questions like that. If you've recently gotten a nose piercing, I assume, like with ears, you can't take the piercings out for awhile. What if you get a cold?

I’ve never had a cold.

I’ve never had a headache.

I enjoyed ‘’stomach flu’ at 8 or 9-years-of-age.

Nose will be soft tissue piercing? I assume?

Come, now! Don’t be the delicate hothouse flower in the sea of verdant grasses!

I can't watch piercings anywhere but the ears, but I've tried. I've watched tons of documentaries and shows on what a lot of people consider bizarre. I love it. I've never seen live piercings or tattoos, but I have no problem watching tattoos on TV, and I don't think I'd have any problems watching in real life. I love the art!

My sister was raised in and lives in Kentucky, and is very religious. She thinks tattoos are stupid and everyone will regret them when they're older. I figure, if you keep yourself in shape (and don't end up with anything that damages your body), the tats will still look good when you're old. And if they don't, they were cool for awhile, and you'll still look like the coolest ones in the old folks' home!

Oh! I never thought of being forced. (Although the movie Hostel 2 has sort of a forced tattoo of a bulldog in it that I think would be pretty cool.)

Wow! That would be a hard choice, because I have all kinds of moods and interests. How about a werewolf, jaws open, ready to bite, or howling at the moon? Where, though? Hmm... Let's assume I had a tight, fit body for this, OK? Covering the back would be cool, but I want to be able to see it any time I want. I'm going to pick my upper right arm. But I still like a full back tattoo with the wolf either growling or howling with a full moon emphasizing the wolf.

Brave? No, Jenny, no! Jr-year-in-NJ. Faux-Punk-Ivy-Leaguer one-hour-from-NYC. Misled, bowing to peer-pressures, nips-and-tucks pierced.

Always kept them clean. My holes will be burned, too, if holes-have any substance?

You've never had a cold? Seriously? My boyfriend just got one! What do you eat? Keep in shape? Just lucky? I'm jealous!

I don't know if the nose would be a soft tissue piercing! I'm not getting it done!

I have heard some women say clitoral piercings tend to keep them aroused. I don't want anything sharp near my vulvar area, normally, but that is a point in its favor.

Oh? I'm in NJ. Hope to get out someday.

Now, you see, I know what it’s like inside a pornographer’s trousers. I enjoy the conversations around and with the ‘patient.’ I am very, very, overly protective of those that I love (not, never, horrors, ‘possessive!’). Willing to take the bullet, ya know. Making sure that the colors don’t run.

I know what I want on my right forearm, I’ve seen photos of other tats of same, but I don’t know how to say ‘this!’ when I’ve no photo or illustration. I want a delicate tat of barely open labia/vulva. I don’t do porn but maybe there’s a website specializing in genital pornography? I’d like it to be so realistic that no one would have to ask, ya know?

I am old! I don’t have the crepey skin, yet. No fat or hanging/sagging parts. I’m guessing that I’ll be dead long before that! Perky tits/nipples! Funny thing, that. As I grew older my partners were younger - at forty I was with a 19-year-old - but, at 58, with my primary partner having just turned 59, I find her slender body even more interesting now than I did at 16! We parted - I left her behind - but we stayed in touch with one another. Last night I found a letter from her, “Sunday nite, 1978”. One of the few surviving. She kept all of my letters (I went to college armed with an Underwood and Selectric but I purchased a sleek Olivetti upon arrival so I have no letters-by-hand at all) but won’t allow me to see them. She is, rightly, afraid of my purple editing pen. She teases me - Nancy is an eternal tease! - reading me paragraphs over the phone.

Um, christ, O can’t stay on-topic. Oh, yes, tats and aging. Mmm, no, that doesn’t worry me.

And the old-folks-home? Been there, on the mental ward. Nurses, aides, etc., helped me take care of my ear and nips. They thought it so cool. Gosh, same for three years in real-life mental hospital.

The older I get, the more mentally stable I become, the steadier my sense of well-being, the fewer regrets I have.

Mmm, Kentucky. I have two ex-girlfriends in Kentucky. The freckled redhead followed me to London but tired of the scene and moved back to KY and married and adopted her husband’s three children. I lost touch with the other. I wonder, though, if, in their dotage, they would disapprove of tats? Neither complained of my piercings.

Tattoos/Piercings/Sex. Is there anything sexual about a wolf howling at the moon? Anything sexual about the coast of my beloved homeland? Er, maybe. I don’t know. I’m no Freud and this is no Fellini filming a train entering a tunnel.

So, vulva on my right arm and do I simply pose with pride for the inking on the left? Hmm. I’m gonna do the nostril... that’s easy, something that I’ve thought of for years. And my queer-pride symbol is a go.

But other tats? Where in the world does one shop for nice vulva???

Ooo... gotta have a snack, now!

I had y nose pierced in January of 2013 and a week after the piercing, I got a cold

All that happened was I just blew my nose and wiped the piercing clean afterwards

No, never had a cold. Never had the flu, I guess. What I described as ‘flu’ was a stomach virus, I think. I ate what I pleased until I was diagnosed with diabetes. I ran when I had legs. Lucky? I dunno - I’ve all these other genetic diseases!

No, I meant nostril. No cartilage there! Both of my ear piercings are high cartilage - no lobe at all.

My experience with ‘clitoral’ piercing is that it’s ALWAYS a hood piercing and, yes, it’s arousing, of course it is! But I don't have any hands-on experience with actual clit piercings. Clits are like penises - they vary in size and sensitivity. I’ve had to use magnifiers to find some and some greet you with a handshake. I think that there must be more bundles of nerves there than in any other part of the female body (although sex-legend Sez the **** is a bundle of nerves, too).

So, to close - look into hood piercing, if you like. Ask around. It was very popular decades back. Like Pubic Hair. Although, I’ve been told, Pubic Hair is making a comeback.

Princeton. One-hour-or-less to NYC every weekend. We got cash for the Chelsea Hotel/Hotel CHELSEA because of Dylan, Joan, Lou, Leonard, Sid & Nancy were to come, &etc.

30-Miles-north, pretty, clean, doctor-girls-in-training slummin’ with the (anarchist-oriented) liberal artists from the South. Meet them halfway, freakier-than-us, thanks. 15-minutes-of-game, a STAR, each and every one. More IVY covering NJ than MASS.

They knew how and where to STICK you, they did, those doctor-girls.

Hopped from one uni to another. NJ was like the underworld - a magnet, gravity. Ha! Einstein and gravitational forces!

I had ‘cold-like-symptoms’ when going through the cold-turkey-withdrawal from opioids. Had to blow my nose a lot.

Did you have a center-cartilage nose piercing or a soft-tissue nostril piercing?

I’m convinced, now, that I’ll get a right nostril piercing.
