sitting...on them?

i don't remember your anatomy being that out of sorts, neko.

also labial piercings are pretty neat, though i've literally never seen anyone with just one. those seem to be the kind that people get a few of.

Seriously, you would not be the first fat lady with labia piercings. You would not, in fact, be the biggest lady to get them and have them heal by a long shot.

I guess it would depend on exact placement, but yeah I would be sitting on them in certain seated positions. I definitely would want at least two, maybe four.

And I know I would not be the first fat chick with crotch metal by far - that's just my biggest worry.

I'm continuing my search for 27mm plugs or eyelets and I've found a lot of stuff that I can't afford and isn't actually what I'm looking for, but I'm drooling over it anyways.

Glass Scarab


Pretty pretty color fronts

Yeah, Glasswear is one of my favorites for glass because of how cheap they are for the level of quality they produce. Gorilla Glass is a bit better quality (Their eyelets tend to be thicker and more durable for example) and tend to have more impressive unique pieces, which is why they are a bit pricier and get store space more often.

They both have a rather important niche to cover.

In this case, Gorilla Glass is a body jewelry manufacturing company operating out of Mexico that was founded in 2002. There's no connection to the glass manufacturing process for gadget screens that I'm aware of.

Correct. They use Soda Lime, Borosilicate and Volcanic (aka Obsidian) glass, as well as Barium Crystal, for their jewelry.

The ONLY reason I spent that much is because they are for my wedding and BAF had nothing I liked in white stone or opalite. But yes, they're pretty and they look like they're the right size, so I won't have to fight to get them in!

I would love to get to a point where I can go to Tawapa, find something I like, and just buy it because I happen to like it. Not for special occasions, just because I'm kind of vain about my ear jewelry.

I would like to do the same. I thought that stone jewelry would all basically be the same, but no, not at all. There's HUGE difference between the cheap and the expensive stuff.

Oh lord yeah, it makes a hellll of a difference in Stone. The quality and complexity of the pattern, how well the pattern matches, the level of polish, how likely it is to break, how close it is to the advertised size, how close the two plugs are in size to each other, etc etc.

Glass probably has the smallest gap between cheap and expensive jewelry in terms of quality, but you'll still notice some very obvious differences.

Yeah, I haven't had the best luck with the stone pieces I've had since I've stretched up to 4g. 10g was fine, but none of the stone pieces I've ordered in 4g have fit because the flares are too freaking big. (This doesn't include the opalite ones, I haven't tried them yet. Also I think opalite is technically a glass anyways?) I've always had great results with glass pretty good results with wood.

Yeah, Opalite is opalised glass. Wood is probably the one that has the most obvious differences in quality, simply because you can see and feel so much of the difference. Everything from the type and toxicity of the wood, quality of the carved or lasered patterns and the finish. Steel has a pretty wide range of quality as well, polish being the most noticeable, but a lot of it has to do with the metal content and how well put together it is.

Which is one of the reasons I avoid metal, because I don't feel like experimenting with how much my allergies have developed over the years. I know 100% I am allergic to nickel, I don't know if I've developed any other metal allergies and I don't feel like bothering with chancing it. Considering I rarely change my plugs anyways...meh. I'd change them more if I found more pretty single flares, but I haven't really. And I'm not wearing hanging styles to work because two-year-old-grabby-hands.

Well, if you ever go for new piercings or jewelry and want to try something other than glass, consider trying out titanium jewelry from either Anatometal or Industrial Strength. They're the best as far as metal jewelry goes and titanium sensitivities are incredibly rare in comparison to nickel sensitivities.

Also titanium weighs nothing and is incredibly strong in gauges as low as 20g so you can get incredibly thin walls on eyelets without worrying about them bending or denting ever if you drop them or squish them outside of your ears.

Also, I'd suggest never ever get a titanium captive bead or seamless ring in anything larger that 4g. I learned the hard way that they're practically impossible to set and unset due to the strength of the metal.

I shouldn't be. Plus I can't wear anything else while at work so I'd basically be wearing a barbell for the weekend and then switching back to this. Which will be fine when it's all healed, but probably wouldn't be good right now.

Still undecided on what I'd want around it, I don't want just words, those are boring, thinking maybe a space scene, with the words as a negative space on the bottom or something. Still sort of just want it around my forearm boxed in black with the words as a negative. Maybe fading the box out some or doing a geometric thing on the edges. To hell with what my girlfriend thinks. She has a flower on her foot and is gonna lecture me on classiness
