Well lets see, it all started when I was fourteen and got my ear pierced. The guy knew I was underage but seeing as it was only an earing he let it slide...god bless the shore. Then for about four years or so that was enough to keep me happy. Right around a month after my eighteenth birthday I just got this impulsive urge to get my little southernly piercing done. A friend of mine went to the local piercer to get his eyebrow pierced and came over with a catalog that had sketches of all the diffrent piercings that they did. After flipping through the pages I came across the one I was to get. I thought about it for about a year before I actually went to get it. Its actually pretty funny that that was the second piercing I got. What can I say? When I do something, I like it to stand out from the crowd. And what better way to stand out than to pierce your dick!?! hehe. So after that, when I went away to college I decided to even things out and get my other ear pierced. No biggie. And about a year after that I decided to get my tounge pierced. Now alot of people will tell you that it dosent really hurt to get your tounge pierced but let me tell you.....FUCK IT HURT. He must have gone through a nerve or something. Overall I havent really had any problems with any of my piercings. The ears are basic enough, the tounge ring screwed up my "techniques" so that had to go, and my other one.....everything went just fine. I took all the precautions neccisary to avoid infections and accelerate healing. Washing the piercing several times a day, taking 50 mg of zinc twice a day to help heal, and avoiding sex for about a month. That was the worst part, but luckly/unluckily for me I was kinda going through a dry period then. So everythign went well. The only problem I have with it now is if the girl im with is too tight. Then there are sometimes some problems getting inside. In those cases I just have to take it out for fear that their crotches will do it more painfully. Even this is seldom a problem. Hope that answered the question sweetie. Keep em coming all, like I said, I love answering and the thought of women thinking about my metal is just such a turn on for me
