Is there anything wrong with piercings?

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 every
one's separate decision to be made, but we must ask, is
there anything wrong with it, really?


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?


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!
