I just had my belly button pierced have 2 in each ear (though I think one set is closed due to forgetting they are there) and 2 tattoos. I came looking for piercing info for a friend and found this thread. I think sometimes it depends on the person the piercings are on. Just like a leather jacket looks better on one person than another, or certain shoes or pants a piercing is a personal statement and either fits that person or not. I am never afraid of someone just because they have a piercing or tat, in fact most of the time I am so busy checking out tats I forget to look at faces lol. I also read t-shirts and it is equivalent to me. People that are offended because you openly looka t their body statements are silly because if they didn't want them looked at they would have covered them. Sort of reminds me of people that come in to a thread and spike it just to get a reaction.
More power to people to express themselves and at least they aren't hurting anyone else as you can do with drugs, alcohol and other "expressions".
