So anyway before i got distracted by other posts i got my penis pierced today.Which means i now have both my nipples pierced my belly button and my **** pierced.Even though i have none of my face done what so ever and the truth is i get a strange sexual thrill out of it and i was just wondering if anyone could at least slightly understand what i mean by that?
 
That sounds rather painful. Is it?
 
That reference went totally over my head. How painful is getting one's nipples pierced?

It had one sudden pain but no sting.
 

I used to have a septum piercing, 2 labia piercings, left eyebrow piercing, and a navel piercing.
But I haven't worn any rings in years, not even earrings. I don't like metal in me anymore. I think beyond a certain age (say, 27... although that's arbitrary and probably varies from person to person) it is no longer attractive and becomes simply weird. And not in a good way. If that makes any sense.
Hubby had a Prince A and an eight gauge ring in the right side of his lower lip.
He doesn't wear his anymore, either.
 

I gotta ask though did you get a thrill out of just geting it done? Im sure it isnt a long term thing for me but hey i like it in the mean time.

Not out of getting it done (that was sort of like an unpleasant medical procedure, something to be endured, not relished), but out of having it.
I know other people who got off on having it done, though. I know some people who are absolutely addicted to it.
I enjoy getting tattoos, especially on my back. But getting piercings? No.

It makes no sense to me and is simply your experience. I'm in my 50s and my
partner and I still enjoy my piercings. Each to its own.

Exactly.
Like I said, it's arbitrary and varies from person to person.
To each his/her own.
Hopefully when I'm in my 50s, I'll still enjoy my tattoos... because they're not going anywhere.

No, it is not arbitrary; there is no such age.

My point is that I do not believe there is any age beyond which piercings are
no longer attractive, as you seemed to be claiming. It's nothing to do with age
and all to do with a person's internal body image.
 

Okay.
And my husband and I got to an age (which was around 27 for me, 28 for him) where we found piercings no longer attractive.
It is "arbitrary" (you do know the meaning of the word, I assume?) in that it's different for each individual.
The age at which you no longer want to wear your piercings might be 60. Or 80. Or never.
The age at which we no longer wanted to wear them was when we began to close in on 30, and for some reason no longer felt like we looked good in them, and began to feel that we merely looked weird.
Part of it, no doubt, had to do with my kids approaching their teens, and me feeling like I needed to adopt a more "adult" image if I was going to be a strong positive role model for them. I did not want them to have any body mods until they were older, and it felt hypocritical for me to stand there with a bunch of piercings and tell them not to get any (also one of the reasons I quit smoking around the same time).
Part of it, also, was wanting a job with a future and some security, which is something that is less easy to come by when you've got a face full of piercings.
No doubt your circumstances are different from mine, ergo the age at which you feel comfortable wearing your piercings will also differ.
 
I have my belly button and outer labia pierced, and I enjoy them both very much. In fact, I'm still considering getting the other side of my labia pierced and then putting a small (delicate) chain between them

I had my inner labia pierced twice (same side) and I enjoyed that very much. I've seen that chain thing; it looks cool.
I quit wearing my labe piercings because, as I've mentioned before, I don't like underwear, and sometimes when wearing jeans, if I moved the wrong way, the rings would get caught or pinched in the fabric and would pull, causing discomfort. I was scared that eventually they'd accidentally get ripped out, leaving me with an unattractively torn-up looking twat. So.
 

I don't care for jeans myself.... can't find any that are comfortable on me. (always cutting me under my ribs or riding up my butt/crotch) But I completely understand. I've certainly worn certain pants that did catch my ring. But... I generally wear loose fitting cotton pants now or long dresses (or shorts when being totally casual), so it's not much of a concern with the lack of underwear thing.

If I wore jeans a lot though, I'd certainly see where it could be a problem.
 
I've never gotten anything pierced on my body, ever. I have 7 tatoos, so its not as if I have an aversion to needles, but I never saw the male fascination with piercing, whether it be ears nipple, or the dong. Guess its just not my thing.
Females I always just assumed it was some rite of passage to get your ears pierced, as I have seen very small children/toddlers with thier ears pierced. Also I like the eye brow piercing on females. Not sure why.......
The clit piercings I always found interesting, but I have never run across them with any girls that I have had sex with. Do you leave them in during sex??

I do know the meaning of arbitrary. If this "age" you believe in is arbitrary it is
bound by no rules. It follows that giving up piercings cannot be said to depend
on one's age, which was my point.

In other words, age has nothing to do with it.
 
Piercings are the decorations of a barbarian lol, just kidding. Piercings never appealed to me, ever, but I'm not really bothered by them.

She never said that it depended on anyone's age across the board. For her own personal preferences, that age was around 27. As she also pointed out, that age for you may be 60, 80, or never.

Now, me personally? I have two holes in each ear (just the lobes) and I used to have my navel pierced. I certainly never got off on getting, or having, the piercings, but I do like having them. I don't wear earrings often; that's not a practical thing to do when you have a little one. I also no longer have a navel ring; I had to have that one pierced three different times (original piercing, once again after I got out of Basic Training and tech school, and then again after my ring fell out one night and the hole had closed up on me by morning), and the last time my ring fell out I just chose not to have it done again. And now that I'm a mother, a navel piercing just doesn't fit into the image I want for myself anyway.

Now, my mom on the other hand, has seven holes in one ear, six in the other, and is 45 years old and has her navel pierced. More power to her for feeling comfortable with that. It's just not for me anymore.

The essence of her point was that the time you may decide you no longer want
a piercing is after the time you got it. That essentially has zero useful
information content.
 
I am an old guy, so you might understand why I can't see piercings as being attractive. My generation was into tats a bit, but even that creeps me out the way it is being done now. I especially don't like it when food handlers, wait staff, fast food clerks, etc. have excessive metal haning on their ears, lips, nose, eyebrows, tongues, etc.
Anyway, I have to ask, do any of you with lots of visible piercings find it difficult on the job? or if you are not working, even getting a job?
Every place I ever worked, and I just retired, made it clear that visible tats and piercings had to be severly limited or you don't need to apply for a job with them.
 

I can understand your view when piercings lead to possible hygene problems.
It's exactly the same issue as long hair.

I haven't heard anyone complain about pierced ears in that context.
 
I've got my belly button, ears, and tongue pierced. My husband seems to like the tongue alot. I have this tickler thing I can attach to it that drive him wild. I've been thinking alot about getting my nose pierced but I don't think I could ever do my nipples, they're very sensitive. If I just pinch them, they get tender for about 10 minutes. Ouch!

As for the labia, what does it feels like when you have sex? Do you get any sort of sensation simply from the earring?
 

Not really.
It's more an aesthetic thing, at least for me. I've heard other people say it enhances sex, but that wasn't my experience with it.
In fact, you have to be a little bit careful when you have sex, that it doesn't get pulled or ripped.
I've always heard that nipple piercings were the most painful.
I used to want a tongue piercing, but I was scared to do it because I heard that there's a very tiny chance you could injure a nerve and have your tongue paralyzed. That's probably just an urban legend, though.

What do you think about this tongue-splitting that's all the rage now?
My son really wants to get that. I'm seriously hoping he'll change his mind before he's old enough to do it without my permission.
Although I have heard that it's fairly easy to surgically repair a split tongue, if you get tired of it; in fact, I read that they sometimes repair spontaneously.
It just freaks me out. It's a step farther than I or most people of my generation would be willing to go. I try not to be judgemental, but frankly, a lot of body mods seem uncomfortably close to self-mutilation.
I suppose it's only a matter of degree.
 
I had a BF with his tongue pierced and had some vibrating thing that he would put on occasionally. Holy crap! I loved it! LOL

Actual intercourse... I don't notice any difference. I do with oral though, since most guys will play with it, so it's an added sensation to me. I did it for decoration though, not because I thought it *would* enhance anything. I enjoy it, or else I wouldn't put up with it. Because it is a bit of a pain to shave around.
