PIERCINGS!

Each to their own I suppose. My own ears are pierced, but nontheless, I cannot comprehend why people would want 'other bits' piercing. Not going into all the many places it can be done, as I get too squeamish! But, the ones on full view that I cannot understand and don't particularly like looking at, are....
1. The face. Why would anyone want a metal bar, stud or ring sticking out of various places on their face?
2. The bellybutton. You could just get a stick-on adornment rather than have a piercing, what happens when pregnant and the belly stretches, does the piercing hole stretch too? Ewww!
3. The nose. How do these people blow their noses without being in extreme pain?
and finally......
4. The tongue. Juth thinking about it makth me thpeak funny.

When I see tiny babies with pierced ears, I cringe, I know it is a fashion statement, but it's a fashion statement by the Mother, the child didn't have a choice! How could a Mother subject their baby to that.
My own Daughter is now seven. If, when she reaches sixteen (as I was), she wants her ears pierced then that is her own choice. I just hope she leaves the rest of her face and body alone. YUK!!!
