CrowFairy:
Ears are fun to accessorize! I say this as a person who has been too afraid to get her ears pierced because I'd literally faint if I saw the needle. I have anxiety attacks over them. x_x And I know I'd spend all my money on earrings.

Seriously, go on Etsy and look at how many wonderful kinds of earrings there are. Accessorizing is fun, and my guess is that Claire wants to enjoy what so many other females our age have been brave enough to do.

A possibility: "Go where you're not comfortable." Or facing a fear, or some such motivational stuff. Or as one of the more thoughtful forumites pointed out earlier, this might be her first "OK, now it's time to do a girl thing" thing -- although the number of guys getting punctured makes that a shaky generalization indeed.

Eh, me ... I don't elect to get punctured unless it involves the nice Red Cross lady trading me OJ for Type O, but that's just me.

KOK:
But she does not need piercings to be more feminine. She is entirely feminine as is.

Ain't what I said.

Fear of pain, I'm guessing. I'm always terrified before a tattoo or piercings and build up the pain a lot in my head. Then, usually, it's nowhere near as painful as I thought and makes the getting a little easier since it wasn't as bad as in my head.
Then once I've got it, I'm super delighted and forget all about the pain. Claire may do the same.
