[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People keep saying nose rings are “edgy.”  I know tons of very boring women who have nose rings. Is it really so edgy anymore?[/quote]

Yeah I'm neutral on nose rings (do what you want) but I find the comments about how a nose ring somehow communicates "edge" or that you're "wild" just very.... old-fashioned? It's a piercing in a not-particularly-sensitive part of your body. To me they are truly no different than ear piercings.

Like if the thing that says you are "edgy" is your tiny nose stud, I hate to be the one to break this to you, but you are incredibly square![/quote]
Are a lot of people on this thread in their sixties and older, or something? Being shocked by nose rings is an attitude I expect from my 75 year-old mom, and not members of Gen X and younger. [/quote]

I think DCUM runs very conservative in this respect (a lot of people from preppy families where tattoos and piercings and anything counterculture would be viewed as tacky). Thus the pearl clutchers who think nose piercings are dirty or ugly, but also the people who think they are being very transgressive with their tiny little nose stud.

I guess none of you ever worked the piercing booth at a motorcycle rally like I once did. There are definitely some "edgy" piercings out there and you nose stud is not one![/quote]
