elarbeeI thought of a good analogy:
Getting a tattoo is like getting a really significant other (such as a spouse), or a child.
- Really good ones or really bad ones are usually a significant investment of time and money.
- All are awfully hard and often expensive to get rid of if you really don't like them.
Thereby, if ever I do get a tattoo, it will probably have something to do with my husband or children.
Piercings, though, are more like non-serious boyfriends and girlfriends, or distant relatives.
- If you really don't like them, you can usually get rid of them relatively easily.
- Definitely less of a time investment, frequently less of a financial one, too.
I have a significant number of piercings. Maybe not that many non-serious boyfriends, but enough to judge by, and definitely lots of distant relatives.
