And Lizziey is gonna kill me over this one too...

She pierced Seth's ear. The left ear. And when I saw it, the first thing I said was "isn't that the gay side?" This is NOT to say "how could you get him a gay piercing" or anything, I was just showing off my knowledge. This starts off a huge debate, where she swears the right side is the "gay side" and other people say it's the left. There's no consensus.

So, a completely informal poll, so informal that it's not even a real poll:

Which side used to be used to indicate homosexuality? The left or the right? Or don't you know/care?

I always heard "left is right and right is wrong." So I agree with you, hee.

I don't really mind babies having their ears pierced, but I sort of lean toward the side of not wanting that, because I think it should be their choice. I, for one, scar easily; people like me might not want permanent marks on their ears if they decide they don't want them pierced.

But maybe if my parents had let me get my ears pierced earlier in my life, I wouldn't have such an affinity for it now. I'm not full of metal or anything, but let's just say my parents don't approve of me. ;)

Wow, what a touchy subject overall.

I think giving someone a choice is always better. But my general apathy on the subject is because the holes in my head have always been there, I don't feel much about them. Don't feel like wearing earrings? I don't! Feel like wearing them? I do! No wonder I'm such a screw up in life. Heehee.

It is a touchy subject. Bring up Santa Clause if you want another surprisingly touchy subject. So many people think it's wrong to tell kids that Santa exists, and every time it's mentioned, some heated debate flares up.

I'm not a piercer. I'm a tattoo-er. Luckily, mum is going to spring me the cash if I get a tasteful tattoo. Right now when I describe it she goes all dreamy eyed and says "wish I'd go get a tattoo..." funny folk, my family.
