If people want to decorate those areas that is their decision, but it should remain private,whether it be tattooing or piercing. Although I do think if they decide on a piercing, they should go to a reputable establishment that uses non-rusting jewelry. Rusting could lead to some serious complications that may not be covered under their health care.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035949355013113578.post-36062993644541043762015-01-28T13:05:14.237-05:002015-01-28T13:05:14.237-05:00You can keep pushing political correctness to make...You can keep pushing political correctness to make those who have serious illness seem as if they are normal all you want, but you will still have disease disguised as normalcy no matter what you call it. Bipolar disorder is an accepted disorder. Normal people have it. No one laughs at it, nor did they ever. <br /><br /><br />Those that chose to alter their bodies to act like a man or like a women are not normal. Heck, Gallop poll the other day said only 53% of Americans think being gay is acceptable and look how long it's taken to convince that many people that it's acceptable. <br /><br /><br />A guy who wants to wear a dress, split hi penis in half, and clip his ball sack is off the deep end. Yes we've heard the excuse, they are women trapped in men's bodies -- laughable to most people, other than the social justice warriors who would make a three breasted woman seem like the new norm.
