In another group someone said they couldn't understand WHY anyone would want to get pierced or get a tattoo. Maybe it's like Marmite - some love it, some hate it.

Maybe 30 years ago I was in a life drawing class. The model caused a spontaneous gasp when he disrobed to reveal a tattoo where his pubic hair no longer grew. In those days few people had tattoos and most had a full bush of pubes. Shock, horror - but I instantly wanted a tattoo there. But what? I'd been fond of ducks since childhood. I produced my own design and carried it around until I plucked up the courage - as late as 2013.

During social nudity I saw several fellow nudes with pierced nipples. I wanted them and had them done in 2016. I'd also seen men with PA's and wanted one as well. I got it in 2017, not realizing it would be a long time (and several upgrades) before it looks like those I'd seen. So those first piercings were just out of envy. After that I got my own piercing kit and just kept sticking holes in myself. One thing about piercings (unlike tattoos) is that they can be taken out. At one time I had 17. Now I'm down to 6, each with a particular significance.

By the summer of 2018 I had two piercings through each nipple (being four of the six piercings I'm keeping). Maybe one nipple is a bit bigger than the other. They looked uneven. To hide it I simply had a second duck tattooed above my left nipple.
