Phineas Gage piercing.
Hahaha, nice.
That is a hell of a read.
No specific piercing. I’m vanilla AF, so any piercing or amount of piercing that I can’t help but stare at probably means we aren’t a great match.
Actual red flag … maybe if the piercing has a swastika or other political/religious/other sentiment I find abhorrent.
Ah, some piercings in some places can feel very nice
But I’m with you on the Ideology stuff - especially the fascism part
No specific kind would bother me, but if they have tons and tons I might suspect they’re really into that one thing and we’d have little common ground.
Ones like this
Eyeball.
Ewwww
If I saw that, I’d be so fascinated I’d have to try to talk to them.
Anything on the genitals
all. i deplore piercings (that includes earrings ofc) so much, it’s an act of self-harm and people are doing it because they’re so dead inside, they want to feel anything at all rather than nothing. we need a healthy relationship with our body again, and that definitely doesn’t include self-harm.
I feel like I know the answer already but I have to ask.
What is your opinion on tattoos?
Okay, Dr. Psychoanalyst for all the pierced people of the world. Does this include the majority of Western women, who have pierced ears? It’s around 80% of them in the US.
also - sorry for ranting but this is a perfect time for it - people who wear earrings are stupid. they want to be pretty so they wear earrings, though if people like you because you wear earrings, better distance yourself from these people. also, the make-up economy is harmful. make-up contains hormone-like substances, they are a means of extracting money out of unwitting women, make women feel like shit if they don’t wear make-up, and distort perception of what a normal human looks like through advertisement. women become dependent on that stuff because if nobody used it, neither would they have to.
A German with a purity fetish… where have I seen that before in the historical record?
