OMG Corset Piercing.
I would need to be more than just intoxicated to have this done to my body, like dead. Corset piercing involves multiple rings on a persons back with ribbon laced between them.

Warning this link has pictures that some will find more than, in bad taste.
Snopes.

3. This has been discussed here before
The rings are not permanent; it's meant for a night or weekend. By me I think it looks cool, FWIW.

4. I still can't figure out genital piercing
this is ridiculous!

Yes, I know - it's your body and pierce it anyway you like but some of this stuff seems a little too crazy - but as long as it's not being done to me what can I do

:shrug:

already pierced in various places.

9. Corsets were a bad idea the first time around.
This is worse. I wonder if anyone got an infection from having those multiple piercings?

14. They apparently can't stay in permanently. They have to be removed.
Gee, go trough all of this just to remove them afterwords?

18. Ever gotten a tattoo?
I'm not poerced anywhere, but I have a tattoo. The experience isn't " through all this", it can be great.

My ex got her belly pierced at the same time I got my tattoo. She said that she didn't even feel it.

12. I think it's deadly sexy

Khash some "I have 14 body piercings" guy.

21. You have FOURTEEN body piercings?
Now that's scary! :scared: I'm afraid to even ask where they all are...

And these back piercings are definitely temporary...I've seen the pics...and welll........

It just looks like it HURTS! But maybe I'm just too tender.....

16. I think Björk did that (or somethingsimilar) in her video for Pagan Poetry
Haven't seen it in a while though. I think I saw it in a SuicideGirls pictorial too. Kinda weirds me out, but I don't mind it that much.

22. Yes, she did. I saw it on that MTV Censored show--
They actually showed all the videos they had previously banned or shown in limited rotation (for one retarded reason or another).

While watching it was a tad creepy--it was oddly beautiful, too.

I just love Bjork's voice and work. She's an amazing artist! :hi:

17. well, when you do it, go to Fort Worth and let my daughter do
the piercings. She is very good.

And at $20 a piercing it would be a nice paycheck for her.

I shall have to ask her if she has done one of these yet.

She does tell me about her experiences in "personal piercings"

23. Your daughter is a piercing artist? Wow-how interesting!!
If I may ask, how long has she done this kind of work? What kind of license does one have to have to do this?

I would think one would see a lot of variety in such work--

cool.

25. LOL variety is putting it quite mildly.
She is a piercer and tattoist in apprenticeship.

She was very interested in learning the tattoo trade and a local tattoo artist saw her art and thought she had the talent, so agreed to let her apprentice with him. He started her out as the piercer, probably to see if she was in the least bit squeamish about blood, needles ,etc. She wasn't, and she tattooed grapefruit and oranges for a while before she did people.

One of the reasons he hired her (she now knows) was to have a female in the shop to do the personal piercings on women. He does not like to do them, and the women are more comfortable with a woman doing them anyway.
She has told me some funny stories about personal piercings.

She has 3 tattoos and her navel is pierced, but that is all.

The standard tattoo apprentice ship is 3 years; it is not the same kind of licence that a nail tech or hairdresser has to have. The business is licensed, not the operator. Wierd.

But she loves it. I asked her tonight about corset tattoos and she said they don't like to do them because they are not permanent ..people mostly do them when they are going to a tattoo convention in hopes of getting their picture in magazines.

27. It was cool that the guy gave her an apprenticeship...
I read an article about women in tattooing, apparently the numbers are still pretty low. For a long time the profession was male dominated, and any woman taking interest in the work, was put through hell to apprentice and learn.

She'll earn a very good living once her apprenticeship is over...I heard some artists can earn well into six figures!

:thumbsup:

19. I think it is hot..
Not the back but the sides.. *cold shower* And the last time this was posted I got shit about doing it myself (since I like it). To repeat myself.. It would be a bonus. I would never ask someone to do that.

20. It definitely unique.
I wouldn't call it gross but it wouldn't be a turn on for me either. I'd rather go for a sexy tattoo in a well placed area. From a practical standpoint how much freedom of movement would one have before they start pulling on those piercings?

28. I had this done once
It isn't nearly as bad as it looks (pain-wise). It was a birthday present for a fellow I'd been dating on-and-off for about three years. He and I really found corsets sexy, so this seemed like a great gift. He was extremely grateful. ;)

30. awesome
I watched it being done on a gal, the end result was very elegant. She had photos done for her fiance. He loved it.
