Body piercing is a form of fashion and can often be used to decorate the body. For example nose rings, earring, tongue piercing etc.
There are certain medical risk with having many piercing such as HIVs, infections can occur and hepatitis.
It can also be a sign or control, for example a ring in the nose of a bull. They can be used to manipulate and manoeuvre animals. Some people may see piercings as being submissive hence why people would avoid them.
Many teenagers whilst going through their rebellious stage also tend to get piercings done. There have been many examples shown in the media and films where the parents do not give consent for them to have it.
To a certain degree too many piercings look unprofessional in my opinion. Many workplaces do not allow their staff to where excessive amounts of jewellery as it is not suitable for certain occupations.
Most schools will usually only allow stud earrings , and students may be punished of they wear any more as it is a hazard if students get into fights.
In my opinion I think that a certain amounts of piercings looks nice, however when too many are done it begins to look unattractive.

I agree with you that too many piercings look horrible! An example is the picture you've put up, it does make people look unattractive, I'm actually a fan of piercings I think they look pretty nice, but up to an extent like you said. Having them everywhere doesn't look good and like you have stated there are risks of it and people need to be aware of them, I did try looking at the link you posted but it didnt' work! However if you can check it out and post it again, that would be great :)
ReplyDeleteI also agree that too many piercings look bad, i also find it strage, whilst doing some research on piecings, that there is no legal consent age to get a piecing.
