I am 16 years old and since about a year and a half ago I have been moderatley interested in body modification. I really became very interested with body modification about three quarters of a year ago. With the parental units I have I was never aloud to get a piercing. No matter how much I fought my parents on it they refused. So I thought why not get one where they'll never see it. The one place on my body that they would never have a reason to snoop around is my penis. I would have gone to a professional to get it done properly, but I would have needed parental permission One day in November of 2004 I was in a fairly bad mood and decided to go for it. I took 3 safety pins, I didn't sterilize them a bit, horrible idea I know now. I laid down on my bed put in Heavy Metal the movie for some inspiration. I decided to do them all on the shaft, one at the base, another halfway up the side and another at the base of the head. I was smart enough to avoid a rather large vein running up the left side of my penis, just not smart enough to use proper equipment. I sat there admiring my work, feeling happy that I had done one of my first piercings.
At A Glance Author ben Contact lizard___king@netzero.com When Three months ago Artist me Studio my room Location omaha, nebraska I had no jewellery so I just left the safety pins in, another horrible idea. Realizing I needed some I called one of my friends and we went down to Big Brain one of the better piercing parlors in Omaha. I bought 3 16g barbells. I was reamed for being so stupid and I deserved much more than I got. That night I attempted to put the barbells into the piercings but it didn't work, I sadly took out all three of them. Which was a good idea because two of them were starting to redden and swell, just a little more than 12 hours after it was pierced, only bad stuff would have followed.
Christmas of that year I decided to give myself a present, because you need to give yourself a present every now and then. It being Christmas and all, I took up where I left off. This time I sterilized the safety pin, still a bad idea. I decided to pierce the right side in about the middle of the skin covering the head, just under the skin not actually going through the foreskin. Thinking myself clever, stupid, I left the safety pin in the hole for a day and a half. Thinking it would have more time to heal, making it easier to put the jewellery in. It was horrible walking was painful. It worked, I was able to slide the barbell in, I still had the ones left over from my first attempt, expensive little things. I did a horrible job on this piercing it is to shallow to be gauged safely, but i finnaly found a 16 gauge barbell that fits nicley and looks good in it.
Finally I had a piercing, one that my parents would never know about. Over the next few months I learned allot about piercing and procured much more 'professional' piercing instruments, meaning I had a hollow needle, much better than a safety pin. The day I got the needle I sat down with the needle and a 16 gauge ring that somebody had given to me. This time I did it so the ring would pass through the foreskin entirely. This time I pierced It hurt less, bled more, and was easier than my past attempts. I realize now that I got lucky, any of the piercings could of got infected and led to bad bad stuff.
Currently I have the two foreskin piercings and I have my left nipple pierced, none of these have been seen by my parents. I have plans to do more piercings on myself and to gauge the most recent foreskin piercing. I would rather go to a parlor, but I am not of the legal age and I would need signed parental permission, thats never going to happen. If your in my position and considering doing your own piercings do not be stupid about it. If you going to be stupid, use the proper equipment. Be safe and be smart about any piercing.
I truly love my piercings, they give me a feeling a difference from everyone else. I look at my piercings and think 'wow thats good stuff'. When I tell people about my expierence they tend to freak out at the fact that I pierced my foreskin on my own. I just look at it as giving a present to myself, just to make myself feel better.
