The piercing quiz, gacked from tommdroid:

You scored as Dirty Piercings. AH!!! You dirty person you! Put that away!!! Who did that for you!? Your the kinkiest of the kinkiest and probably think you're hot stuff. Well, maybe you are but that's kinda nasty. Ew. Weirdo. </td> Dirty Piercings 90% Tongue Piercing 90% Cartilage Piercing 80% Nipples 80% Earlobe Piercing 70% Labret Piercing 70% Nose Piercing 60% Belly Button Piercing 60% Lip Piercing 30% What Piercing Are You? created with QuizFarm.com

A very judgmental quiz, if you ask me - I wonder how the poor creator would feel to know that I have [counts]... five of the listed holes? Feh, I say, feh!

And squeamish! Go ahead, say it - genital piercing. See, that didn't hurt, did it?

***snickers*** You sound like me doing the "Shape" quiz ... wondering why not loving violence automatically made one "square" :p

I do agree with you though ... I've always figured that people who use negative terms like "dirty" in relation to genitals, sex, nudity, etc., have some problems that they really need to deal with.

I've always figured that people who use negative terms like "dirty" in relation to genitals, sex, nudity, etc., have some problems that they really need to deal with.

That's how it struck me too. Of all the euphemisms that could have been used ("naughty piercings", "private piercings", etc.) they conspicuously chose "dirty". Sad.

Very sad. And yet they probably view themselves as uninhibited. ***shakes head*** A textbook case right out of John Ince's The Politics of Lust (an interesting study of sexual negativity in our allegedly "liberated" culture)

P.S. Speaking of sad, compare the U.S. cover for this title to the Canadian cover linked above. :p

Comparing the covers - that is indeed very telling of U.S. prudery!
