People weren't meant to poke holes in their bodies and jam metal through them. It doesn't even look good. It looks like you have a huge hunk of crap hanging off your body like a growth.
I agree 100% with this. I've never, ever looked at someone whose body was pierced to crap and thought "Wow, they look amazing!" Honestly, it's really, really gross. I know there are some people it works better for, but I honestly find it to be a HUGE turn-off. If you're into dressing "differently" as I was for a while, you don't need to stick metal through anywhere on yourself that you can in order to look as "cool" as possible. I think it looks a whole lot more classy not to be pierced to hell.

Think about it. I know that all of the people I've ever considered to be attractive have not been pierced majorly, excepting the ears. And I'm not talking about those huge gross barrel gauges. I mean, seriously! "I know what'll make me really sexy: IF PEOPLE CAN LOOK THROUGH MY EARLOBE!" I'm practically salivating already! Vomit.

I don't get people in this regard. Honestly, it really endy up just looking trashy. Same thing with most tattoos and all that crap. The people I've admired most in my life, that I've both known personally or looked up to as a hero figure (read: Trent Reznor :rolleyes2), haven't disfigured themselves beyond recognition. If you think it's cool to look inhuman, go for it. But don't be surprised when you disgust people. You're bringing it on yourself.
