To each his/her own, I suppose.

Whatever people want to do with their own bodies is their own business.

However, I do agree that it is very digusting and distracting to see someone constantly messing with their pierced tongue. Bleck. I find it practically impossible to carry on a conversation with someone who is doing that.

My personal thoughts on it: I would NEVER pierce anything that isn't already pierced, and that is my ear lobes. I think it is unattractive, distracting and makes my stomache hurt to even think about it.

But, I have a couple tattoos, and I know there are a lot of people that don't agree with that, either.
