...what is....

[Purple_Popple]

the pic of the avatar that Pinlilady has??? Is it a toungue piercing gone wrong....I cant look at it as its making me feel a bit queasy....

[Purple_Popple]

I meant to type 'Pinkilady' hehehe sorry....

[starone]

I don't know, it is horrible isn't it? There is certainly a big tongue there and part of some lips and looks like some blood. I think pinkilady is going out of her way to find an avatar to attract and yet repel.

[DTCwordfan]

guess its her magnetic personality then - "attract and repel"......

[starone]

I thought that was rather a good description DT.

[starone]

Just had a closer look and there is certainly something sticking through the tongue although it appears to be from the underside to the top, which I think would be the wrong way around.

[starone]

Just out of curiosity pinki, how do you manage to eat, or other things? Doesn't it get in the way?

Good evening all.
Tongue piercing can be dangerous.

I have to agree with you all, it is not a nice image to view and am a little surprised Gravatar allowed it through as 'G' rated.

... and it's not at all 'filtered' to make it look bloodier ... at all, pmsl

[DTCwordfan]

it might just be illegal as the portrayal of blood associated with provocative pictures was made an illegal act two years ago. I know someone (distantly) who was done by the men in blue for this down here in Cornwall.

Zida's posting is interesting, but if this is the only person who has died because of tongue piercing I suppose it can't be too dangerous. Having said that, it is not a thing I would like to have done. Maybe because I am a rank coward. I have got ear piercings but took ages to get my courage up to have that done.

Not the only person at all starbuckone

I can also recall a girl dying as the piercer hit a vein and when she got home her mouth kept filling with blood and I'm not sure whether she died from bloodloss or wheter she breathed the blood in and drowned in her own blood which both sound horrible and unnecessary. Dtcrossword fan what do you mean it's illegal to have a picture with blood on it and who got done and what was the charge?

Since 09 and the Jane Loughton murder, there was an extensive tightening up of UK obscenity laws (and their linkage through to the criminal justice laws) and photos do not necessarily have to be pornographic. Implied or linked photos to BDSM and I would ascertain that tongue piercing does have some linkage by assocaition, and involving heavily bruised, broken skin or blood are now illegal - and most folk do not know that.

This one of pinki's is probably marginal but if I was her I wouldn't risk it. Shame Newjudge is not on tonight as he could cite the specific acts and render an opinion.
