i think earings and belly button piercing on girls usually looks good, i think a small nose stud can be very sexy as well (mostly because the prettiest girl i ever went out with had one, hey i'm biased ). tounge studs can be 'interesting' as well

i don't have any piercings, wouldn't suit me at all. not too keen on tatoos for either boys or girls.

I think tattoos on girls are sexy. Mind you , small aesthetically pleasant tattoss. Such as a small Dolphin on the left shoulder on the back (now where did I get that idea ) Not some 500 ks tiger on the forearm...

having said that for me no tattoos or piercings (which I really don't like - yuck) although I've always contamplated the fact of getting a tattoo, but that's where it stayed; contemplation

A tattoo is nothing but a glorified bruise.

A tattoo on a girl's lower back looks awesome.
Like anything though, too many spoils the effect.

I dislike them on women. They make women look like sluts.

which isn't a bad thing of course. The world needs more sluts

but for a girlfriend I like a "cleaner" type. I'm old fashioned that way.

I suppose it is just a case of socialisation. To me, earrings are fine, they can look great on a woman. Other assorted piercings are not my cup of tea.

yes earrings are norm. I didn't mention that. I guess you just get used to what you grew up with. Piercing started becoming popular when I was a teenager, but most people still didn't have anything other than their ears pierced.

Nipple rings on women are just annoying. I don't like sucking on metal. I never have been with a woman with a stud or ring "down there", so I can't say what effect that might have. Other crap on a womans face just looks horrible. It makes a pretty face look worse. I suppose if they are already butt ugly it can't do any more damage .

As for tattoos a butterfly on a woman's ankle is ok. But women are going overboard now days. They look like ****.

As for myself I have no piercings. I'm a wannabe warrior. A true warrior would not have thing on their body that can be pulled and pose a serious weakness .

As for tattoos I have been thinking about getting a scorpion and an anchor. To represent my present and past. But I never have gotten around to it. I guess I'm just too chicken to get it done . but the thing is I don't want visible tattoos because it can affect certain jobs I can get. But if I put them above my elbows no one will ever see them because I don't go shirtless or wear tank tops and sleevless shirts. I always have on a t-shirt at least. I could put them on my legs, which is what I am thinking of doing.

the only facial piercings i like are tongue..some chicks look cute with nose rings..but that buffalo sh!t is ugly.

tats are ok in good taste...but who's to say my taste is right for you....

the beauty of all this....tats, piercings , hair dye etc..is its expression, and it all means differnt things to people.

i like my women clean and trendy, if that means a sexy tat above her A$$ so be it...

but i don't like the bif naked look.......

Tats are yucky, the only piercing permissible on a chick for me is belly button. All others are gross, IMHO.
Interestingly, the only piercing that I think fits a guy is an eyebrow piercing. I have somewhat flirted with the idea, but never too seriously.

earrings are fine. still have a hole in my leaft ear. piercings i dont mind. facial ones though can be disturbing. especially lip piercings.

i have 3 tattoos. one is the screaming face off the prodigy's "music for the jilted generation" cover on my shoulder.

a screaming vulture on my thigh. our whole platoon had it done after it's commander was killed 2 years ago.

last one is an angry geometrical sun (radius = 3 inches) on the back of my neck.

my girlfriend doesnt even have her ears pierced. boring brat!

I have a tattoo on my leg, a Kanji symbol.

I don't tend to go for piercings - aside from ear lobes on girls and at the top of the ear on guys.

Other than ears, piercings are lame. It's just an infection waiting to happen. Tattoos, IMO, are lame. But some people feel the need to write on their bodies. I don't hold these things against people (unless done in excess). It's just not for me. My current gf just has ears pierced. My last gf had the thing under the tongue piereced. Kind of useless really. I actually wish she had the tongue pierced because she gave terrible head.
