Left or Right?

Former Member

Just carrying on from the 'nose piercings' thread,
which side do you think looks better? on the left or on the right, i know people who have them done either side, but i just wondered wether it mattered and what not.

Former Member

doesn't matter.

i had mine done on the right, just because it felt like it should be there.

Former Member

I had mine done on the right, just cos I prefer things being on the right really?! I dunno!
But when I got home everyone was like 'you got it on the wrong side! Isn't it meant to be on the left?' ...Can't see why?!

Former Member

Isn't this what it used to be like with the boys' earrings? If they got it on the left, the were straight, if they got it on the right they were gay?

Former Member

"Right ear, right queer" I think the phrase was...

I have mine on my right...Like Kaffrin, it just felt right there...

Also taking into account if you can fiddle with a piercing with one hand being the weaker of the two.. I was lucky - I'm ambedextrous (sp) lol

Mine was on my right and people said it was on the wrong side. Strange.

Former Member

whichever feels more right. I had mine on the right because i had more ear piercings on the left and a lip on the right. so i thought it looked more in place there.

Former Member

if i had mine done id have it on the left...all my extra piercings (as i call them) are on that side...feels right on that side

Former Member

i had my nose piercing on the right. Its closed up now thou.

Ive got my eyebrow pierced on the right and the top of my right ear pierced too.

Former Member

I had mine done on the right but everyone was like you've had it done on the wrong side! So dont no what it is but ppl seem to have it done on the right but everyone thinks it should be on the left. Very Strange

Former Member

Mmm. Meant to be right side for girls and left for boys; or the other way round for gay people. I've got the top of my ear done on the left, had my lip done on the left and my nose done on the right. I just do whichever I prefer (except my ear... the woman just put it on that side of her own accord)

Yay! We get our own rules?! lol

What does it matter which side you get it done? I always figure I'll have it done on my left side when I get round to it 'cos it seems right - I think it's a leftie thing.

didnt that weigh the rite side of u down!?

Former Member

I don't think it matters any more. Get it pierced on whichever side you like, are more comfortable with, or thinks looks best.
Do people still go on about all that left/right straight/gay thing?

They do for they're ears, i know that.

Former Member

That's so twatish..

Something so trivial.. getting your ears pierced on a particular side confirms your sexuality. How bloodt pathetic. :mad:
