longtomsilver Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Last night while at work a couple of charming lasses were telling me that they had their bits pierced that day which is nothing I haven't seen before as an old girlfriend of mine had her hood (this isn't under the bonnet of a V8 Mr Pin) bejewelled and I had the unenviable task of switching jewellery. Aesthetically as far as that area goes not a terrible addition. Anyway, at the end of the night as we were closing up they proudly lifted their skirts and myself and a few bouncers caught a glimpse of what can only be described as a brutal piercing on the pubic bone that goes by the name of a ?Christina I asked why that one and not the one my ex had had and one told me that performing such piercings is now illegal otherwise they'd have gone for the (I suppose, healing time) less invasive procedure. At first I didn't believe them re. government meddling and looked it up on line and apparently it's classed as female Genital Mutilation. While this may not be everyone's cup of tea I find it offensive that anyone other than the person themselves can dictate to what they can and can not do to their own bodies. This piercing (Christina) has a high rejection and infection rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oracle Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I've seen a "fanny jewel" before! Not my cup of tea, but there you go! maybe "fanny magnets" is going to be the new fashion!! not exactly a piercing so no FGM issue, just two bits of very strongly magnetised metal on either side of each flap.

longtomsilver Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 I've seen a "fanny jewel" before! Not my cup of tea, but there you go! Whether you like the idea or not I still see this as an attack on women's liberties. Yet again the government pandering to a minority using a catch all to affect the masses. In the same vein as the Cologne governor telling her female citizens to change their behaviour and dress more appropriately (moderately). I can't see a ruling on male gen. Mutilation. One sided.

Trade mark that name 'fanny magnets' and open up a factory, you'll be rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really the Government isn't pandering to a minority by banning FGM are they? The ban has to be appled to all citizens though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinker Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 FGM is a problem because it is done to children for reasons of religion (same could be said of circumcision). Allowing grown-ups to it to themselves is something different - as gross as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allowing grown-ups to it to themselves is something different - as gross as it is. They have lumped it all together so the resulting number is meaningless. Do we have a problem with FGM? Don't know the numbers mean nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give the rise of antibiotic resistant bacteria though, I'm surprised at the bits of intimate anatomy that people pierce and stick bits of metal through. Imagine the consequences of bad septicaemia down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
