Okay so I decided that I really want a lip piercing and was wondering if it would look good. So I went on facebook and posted a status asking for feedback on whether or not it would look good on me (a side labret). I then get a bunch of comments saying “DON’T RUIN YOUR FACE” and “YOU’RE ALREADY BEAUTIFUL” and “PEOPLE WILL THINK YOU’RE REBELLING!” and shit like that. This one girl even said “this doesn’t sound like the girl I used to know”…..
WELL EXCUSE ME, but getting a piercing isn’t changing who I am. And didn’t I just ask if it would look good? I didn’t ask for moral input or whether it would mess up my face and leave scars. About ruining my beautiful face…I’m already beautiful..yeah I know this. But getting a piercing isn’t going to disfigure my face or make my nose bigger or my ears pointy or anything. I just want a fucking piece of jewelry. Also, so does this mean that only ugly people get piercings then? I’m sorry but that’s just judgmental and if someone beautiful wants a piercing then that should be fine. I’m not getting it to make myself prettier, I just want something new. On that note, a girl actually said to me “well if you want something new, go buy some shoes”. I already have new shoes, FYI, and its not the same. No one looks at your fucking shoes.
Plus, I’m not rebelling. I’m sorry but people with piercings don’t always get them because they want to rebel. I want it because I think it’d look cool and I like girls with piercings. Here is the definition of rebellion:
I’m 18. I don’t live at home, I’m not trying to piss off my parents or my “authoritative” figures. It will piss them off, but I’m not doing it intentionally. I don’t have an armed resistance, I don’t even own a fucking gun. And I dont care enough about my church to go against their morals. I don’t care honestly. I just want a piercing. So, sorry everyone, but I am not REBELLING.
So get off my dick.
P.S. Definitely getting the piercing now haha
