why is it not considered as something good… still a majority of people think, its not a good thing to be done.. I like it… but I have a fear of what will people think (ones who will come to know.. like the one who does it, may it be a woman, like my friends whom I’ll let know..etc etc) so why why people think its not something “good women” do!!
no way… i was thinking the EXACT same thing the other day… and i wanted to start a thread about it too! haha…
anyways, i think its because most people assume that if you have a belly button piercing then you are someone who wears a bikini or revealing clothes. why else would you get a belly piercing? belly piercings need “breathing room” in order to heal properly, and if you are someone who always has their belly covered, then a belly button piercing isnt a good idea. (just a personal opinion)
I got one at the age of 16, though I haven’t worn anything in it for a while, I’ll be re-piercing it soon. OF COURSE I don’t wear revealing clothes and I got it done via a lady in a private shop where no one could see me. It was actually a way to motivate me to lose the last 15 lb. and it was my “reward” when I reached my goal. My mom knew (she wasn’t happy but knew I wasn’t going around wearing small tops to show it off or anything dumb like that), Dad did not know, ahem.
And as for my fiance, he finds it SEXEH so I plan on keeping it until I grow tired of it.
I’m not sure when this fad started (anyone?) but it’s certainly not going away any time soon. Sometimes I see belly rings and think they’re cute, that they might look good, but I don’t showoff my belly and I don’t spend much time staring at it myself either. Bit of a waste but sometimes it is tempting.
If you want to do it for yourself, then go for it.. You don’t HAVE to wear revealing clothes. I used to have one and I didn’t parade around showing off my stomach. I also have a tattoo that no one can see, but I got it done for myself - not for anyone else to see.
I think the belly button piercing fad started with Britney Spears.
