Alright so like the title says I'm thinking about getting at least one piercing. In particular, I'm thinking about getting my nipple pierced, maybe both. It's something I've thought about doing since I was younger, but then I think I'm 35 years old and I'm too old for that. My boyfriend says he's okay with it so I've got the support on that end, but I just don't know. I have two tattoos already, one on my arm and one on my back, and I tolerated the pain of both of those pretty good, but I'm a little worried about what getting pierced will feel like too. Anyone got any words of wisdom on this?

I think a lot of it is the whole "what will others think" factor. And I know that really shouldn't matter because it's my body. Plus I don't want to do it and then regret it.

I understand tattoo's, I dont understand getting holes poked in your body just to put a small metal rod or ring in.
Personally, I am turned off by piercings. Tat's are nice, if done correctly and the picture isnt something idiotic.
I saw a guy once who had rings in his ears, nose, nipples, his pecker, and then he had a chain connecting them all. All I could think about was what a dumb fuck he was! I mean, really....one catch on a door frame, table corner, or whatever, and "its all over".
If you feel you have too, then just get one. If you dont like it, you can take it out and the hole will close up.
If you feel you are happy with it, then go get the other one.

My mother once bought me a book called no tattoos until you're thirty.
I say go for it.

My nipples are pretty sensitive, and I had both pierced for a while, and the initial pain wasn't so bad. The problem was lifting boxes and holding them against my chest without flipping the ring and tearing the fistula (at the time I worked for Devil*Mart).
Do what you want.
