cartiledge piercings Options

[nyctophiliac]

does it hurt to get your cartilidge pierced? i would so make a topic about this but then the scary mods on cB would close it and tell me to go here.

nope, it didn't hurt when I got it pierced...but then it hurts after it's pierced. I couldn't sleep on my right side for like a week and the cartiledge piercings get infected easier so you really have to clean them good
haha yeah...one mod [I won't mention her name] closes every damn topic...it's annoying

[Aoiro]

I only have my two ears pierced, and that's it, sadly.
But I never heard of that lesbian factor...
Where the hell did they get that?!

[MeLoNiSyUmMy]

aright...well I dunno if this is in the right place or whatevers but I was just wondering if any of you have your cartiledge pierced? see I got mine this summer on my RIGHT side and everytime I see someone with their cartiledge pierced, it's almost always on their left side...and I was wondering if the right side is like the "lesbian side" cuz you know how on boys if they get their one ear pierced [I dunno if it's right or left] that's supposed to be the "gay side" lol...so uhmm yeah...any idea of what I'm talking about?

P.S. please don't reply to this topic if you're just a retarded n00b/losertron that doesn't know anything and just wants to get their post count up

yea, i know waht you mean. if you've got it peirced on the right its gay but if you get it on the left..you're straight. i dont really beleive it but whatevs. ive got mine peirced on the left only becuase i thought it looked better

[xheartbroken_chi...]

First I only had my left side, then I decided to get my right too because I'm that kool.

[5ayuri]

I have heard about the lesbian and gay thing.
I used to have mine on the right, but I took it off.
I know some girls that have it on the left, but they aren't lesbians.
So..I don't really know.

[Soleil]

I had my right side pierced too. The reason I pierced my right was because it's the side that I don't sleep on.

Omygosh same

[Latina Babii]

Are you kidding me ? That's such bullshit.

The reason why most people get it on the left side is to prevent discomfort when sleeping because most people sleep on their right side.

Haha my friend convicned me that it made you a lesbian I got it down on the left. Dumbest thing for a left-handed lefy sleeping person. Hmmm, I think that's a loud of crap, besides, why would you follow what people believed anyway? Who cars if people think it makes you a lesbian, it makes you openminded and them closeminded idiots.

[ktsou11]

i have one on my right side and i'm straight :D

[MetalChick77]

I have mine done on the right side...big deal.

[miss-_-guitar]

ya right is suppossed to be gay but i think its really stupid. i dont want to get my ears peirced again cause i already have 4 but i want to get my tongue or lip peirced

[toria66622]

im scared to get mine done..but I do have my belly pierced

[coconutter]

I want my cartiledge done so bad. My mom won't let me though. It's like UGH why does it MATTER it's not your ear, honey. She barely let me get my second hole done. Gay.

I'm not using the cartiledge earning for mass destruction.

[sadolakced acid]

i'm not sure i want to ask what a cartiledge piercing is.

so it's just a strange way of saying ear piercing?

people are fickle.

[bad_girl]

i have mine on the left side
all because my left ear felt really bare..
i dont think it has anything to do with "lesbian" or not
in our grade, half the girls hve it on the left && half on the right.

  im scared to get mine done..but I do have my belly pierced

cool :]
i have my belly pierced too.. i think it hurts the same. so why not get cartiledge as well??

[Chii]

im scared to get mine done..but I do have my belly pierced

you should get it done, it definately does not hurt as much as people say it does. it wasn't as bad as when i got my second piercing on each of my ears.

i was going to get it on the right but i got it on the left because i was scared about getting it and forgot.

[jue]

i have two cartiledge pierce on my right side of the ear. I never heard of the "right side pierce = lesbian" thing.

[Smoogrish]

There's no "lesbian" or a "straight" or a "bi" or whatever side. Whatever side you pierce it on isn't dependent on your orientation. That would be silly.

*walks up to piercing place*

"Excuse me, miss, but are you lesbian, straight, or bi? I need to know which side to pierce your cartilage on."

[*My Cinderella.*]

I don't have a cartiledge piercing, but my friend has one (on her right ear too). I don't think it matters what side the earrings on.

[tears_of_blood]

i had a pretty bad experience with cartilige piercings.
when i was 13, my mom finally agreed to letting me pierce my stupid cartilige.
so we went, to this ordinary piercing place and i got it done- no it wasnt just a bad infection- i walked outside the shop and according to my mom i felt flat backwards ( meaning: i blacked out )

why? after i was rushed to hospital and conscious again, i was told that the piercer person had managed to pierce one of the sensitive blood vessel things that control your balance and a crucial nerve cell.

and after that day, i vowed that i'll just stick to my 5 lobe piercings.

[x__rilind]

so it's just a strange way of saying ear piercing?

people are fickle.

it's called a cartiladge piercing because the part of the ear that is pierced is made almost entirely of cartiladge, and when you say 'ear piercing' most people associate that with a lobe piercing... really, there's loads of different ear piercings, and at a shop they'd ask for clarification if you just said you wanted an 'ear piercing'.



as for the topic, i've heard the thing about gay guys pierce one lobe and straight guys the other, but that's all bollocks. it's mostly personal preference, and what ear pressure is put on when a person sleeps and such.

personally, i'd put it in my right ear so i could fiddle with it when i was working and such.

[-sincerely]

LOL I know the whole gay side thing you're talking about, but I'm not sure ear it is, I think it is the right ear. And anyway, that sounds pretty cool. I would want to get my ear pierced, but I heard stories about skin growing over the earring and having to get it surgically removed... -gulps- lol

[flc]

P.S. please don't reply to this topic if you're just a retarded n00b/losertron that doesn't know anything and just wants to get their post count up

Well that's sort of implied all over the forums, hun. I don't see the reason for posting that. And remember that we were all once retarded noobs.

And no, I don't have my cartilage pierced. I wanted to get it though, but it was like, made illegal in my state {I live in Indiana.} to get it pierced in accessories shops like Claires or The Icing, so I'd have to get it done in a tattoo parlor. It kinds of scares me though, I heard it's not the smartest thing to do because your like, piercing a thin piece of bone, Iono..

that's only if the person doesn't care for the piercings correctly, or if the jewellery wasn't in quite right. my step-sister actually had to have an earring surgically removed because it started to grow in on the back, but that was because the jewellery was too tight.
