When you spend a day at the mall, you see people with body piercings.  Perhaps you see someone with a nose ring.  Another may have a belly button ring.  In fact, you may see people with some really crazy body piercing.  Is there any reason that people should not have so many body piercings?  When it all comes down to it, it is everyone's separate decision to be made, but we must ask, is there anything wrong with it, really?
<br><Br>
Body piercing is popular, especially among teens.  Something that once started as earrings led to the piercing of many other body parts.  Do you have your ears pierced?  Is there something wrong with people who have their ears pierced?  Many teens find body piercing to be a way of self expression and a way to rebel.  Today, people get their noses, tongues, eye brows, belly buttons and even other places pierced.  You can go into any jewelry store at the mall and find belly button and eye brow rings.  The jewelry itself is not tacky or ugly, but can be very regular pieces.  So, what makes body piercing so bad, then?
<Br><Br>
People have preconceived notions about people who are different from them.  When ladies started to get their ears pierced, that was taboo as well.  As time goes on and things become more "normal" the preconceived notions about body piercings will go away as well.  As long as the piercing is done properly, in a clean environment and is taken care of properly, then there are no adverse side effects to having body piercings.  Again, they must be taken care of and cleaned properly though as infections can spread rapidly this way.  So, the next time you are at that mall and see a group of girls walk by with belly button rings, think twice before you judge them.  Consider why you don't like that eye brow ring on the boy who is taking your order's face.  Think twice when judging others because as you judge them, they may be judging you right back!

i have 3 piercings in my right ear and 4 in my left, 1 in my nipple, 1 in my tongue and 1 in my lip, they can all be taken out if it was necessary and will all heal, it is no different to dying my hair, at least they arent irreversable
