Answer 1

i just got my tongue pierced on friday so i'm right there with ya. I really don't know why anyone would want to treat us differantly because of a piercing. it's ignorance really. it's not for attention or because we are uneducated. we are a ever changing society that needs to grow and accept people for thier ablities and who they are, not what they look like on the outside. i would ignore those people posting comments on here that are saying that we are uneducated, disgusting, etc they don't know us and with opinions like that they will never take the time to get to know us and may be missing out on really great friendships.

Answer 3

My opinion is that its a little gross. And that's for the piercing not for the person with one. The reason I don't care for it is because of how much damage I have seen caused from tongue piercings and the clacking that some people do drives me nuts 1)because of the sound and 2) because they are weakening tooth enamel and putting hairline cracks into their teeth. Damage can be reduced, but most people don't care about it they just want the piercing.

However, the general public usually assumes that girls with tongue piercings are easy and very willing to put out and suck d*ck which is an awful stereotype, but one that is definitely hard to break away from. Plus, I'm sure if you are talking funny it doesn't help much with the weird looks and stares. If you like the piercing, don't worry about what others think and say.

To each thier own. Some people hate them, some people love them. I think they have a bad rep because so many people put it out there about the sexual connotations of it. I had mine done but had to take it out for dental reasons. I kind of miss it, but I don't miss all the jerkoff guys saying "oh you have you're tongue pierced, I guess that means you like to give head." How are you portraying yourself with it? That might have a lot to do with how people act toward you. If you are constantly showing it off and playing with it, then you are going to get treated differently. If you just have it and let it be and only talk about it when the subject of piercings come up, then I don't see why you should be treated differently. Even though they are common, more traditional people are still shocked (or appalled) by it. Don't take what people are saying to heart and if they really get on your nerves, tell them to get over themselves, you are still the same person you've always been---just with a little decoration now.

Im an older lady, 60 yrs old, I do my best to understand the younger generation, I think most people, have an idea of what the tongue piercing is all about, I personally, don't think it's a good idea, mostly health reasons, of course.
But there are those number of people, that are quick to ridicule no matter what. I like the ear piercing, but thats as far as I go. ; ) Just be carefull, I worry about kids doing that, and causing their selves problems later on for it.

My sister in law has her tongue pierced and I cringe at the thought of her with my brother. But every person has a right to pierce or do whatever they want with their body. We can't look at somebody and say 'You're going to regret that tattoo when you're 60'. Or 'How do you blow your nose when you have an earring stuck in it?'. People express themselves in different ways. Personally, it's not for me,but I certainly don't judge others who have had it done.
I think the tongue piercing has such a sexual feeling about it, that people have a hard time dealing with it.
My advice_don't let the 'oldies' give you a hard time or make you doubt your decision. Just stick it out and wiggle it round!! That'll give them something to talk about.

Answer 8

That's the reaction you get when you decide to modify your body. I have nothing against a tongue piercing, but I never really cared for them. People who dare to be different will always be treated different.

Answer 9

Well I have had girls kinda stick out their tongue to show me they are peirced, and some how I get the idea that they would like to use that pierced tongue, maybe ya know.

I magine most guys get that impression. I see a girl that is inked up with purple hair, T&A hanging out, multiple piercings, I think: well she's young and some of that stuff comes across as sexy, but she is obviously screaming out for attention, she is probably very immature and insecure. I probably would not be interested in getting to know her. But hey, danger in the book by the cover. So I'd probably say hi to her and see if she sticks out her tongue. Might be the nicest/coolest girl I ever met

Answer 10

i don't have a tongue piercing, but i don't have anything against people who do.
personally, i don't really care what other people chose to do with their mouths.
doesn't bother me, why should it??
but it is truly sad that society automatically thinks about oral sex when they hear the word "tongue."
do they not have anything else better to think about??
if people are acting differently towards you now, then they were never truly your friend to begin with.
true friends like you for who you are on the INSIDE.
seriously, are they that shallow that they have to act differently towards you because you have your tongue pierced??
trust me, there are plenty of nasty girls WITHOUT their tongue pierced, society is just too busy judging those people who chose not to look/act/talk like everyone else.
just be you, and you will find other people who aren't so judgmental.
don't even waste your time with those other people.
