    They don’t taste any different but I still don’t like them.

    Same with the septum rings.

    No hate just disappointment for just how many girls are doing one or the other.

      I’m not really sure who likes them other than the people who get them and other people who like those specific piercings for whatever reasons.

      It’s wild how insanely defensive people get about their piercings and body modifications though, just read through this post or any post like it on reddit.

      Like, chill out you freaks. If someone doesn’t like your fashion choice, unhinged rants and attacks aren’t going to make someone magically start loving metal accessories stuck in your soft parts.

          I mean it’s a niche thing, people who are really into piercings really like them, and those who aren’t into them tend to really really not like them, whereas some other fashion accessories are generally more universally acceptable even if not necessarily loved.

        Saying you’re disappointed with what girls do to their bodies is mad weird, though

          I do not give a single fuck about what you choose to do to your body.

          But I’m also allowed personal opinions about it.

          My personal opinion is that I find them extremely off-putting to a frustrating degree. Also those frustrations are not aimed at the girls getting these piercings but more towards 1) Why do they bother me so much? And 2) Why are they so popular?

          Y’all can judge me all you want though it’s a little ironic when I already said I have no hate to people who get piercings. Fuck I’ve got tattoos all over. Piercings just aren’t my thing. Some I can ignore and others I can’t.

            The comments are pretty much all with you save one person. If I were you, I’d calmly walk away with that satisfaction before you get baited into a comment that “proves” you are what has been said of you.

            (Note that “proves” is in quotation marks there.)

          This isn’t an argument about abortion or gender affirming care you nut, this is about fashion. It’s not about “women’s bodies.”

          Plenty of women express “disappointment” with the fashion choices men make and it’s fine. What’s the difference?

          edit: my biggest disappointment here is people who can’t separate themselves from a stranger’s opinion and have to fight about someone’s preference whom they will never see, meet or talk to. Like, it just sparks this massive insecurity in people because it reminds people that someone might reject them for their choices so the response tends to be lashing out and being unhinged. And you see this on every end of every ideological spectrum, it’s a very human thing that we need to get better about. You all need to learn to SIT with the fact that not everyone will like you, your fashion, your taste, etc. Social media and discord has made you all get way too adapted to a world where you can choose to surround yourselves with only people who accept you blindly, so that you’re losing touch with how to feel about and cope with those who don’t immediately validate everything about you.
