About a week ago, as an impulsive decision, I decided to get my outer labia pierced. I remembered seeing these on a model on Suicide Girls and really liked the look of it. I had been thinking about getting a VCH, per suggestion of my recent ex boyfriend (at the time we were dating I was absolutely against the idea, but I mulled over it for a while.) But, not realizing that outer labia is actually more painful and takes more healing time than VCH I decided to get them, also because I like the look of the outer labia piercings much more.
At A Glance Author Maggie When A week ago Artist Roy Studio Obscurities Location Dallas, TX I did it on the spur of the moment, after looking at a few pictures on the internet and reading a little about it on BME. I really wanted access to the Suicide Girls pictures I'd seen before, but as I don't have a membership I wasn't able to see the model's pictures for reference.
I went to my preferred piercing shop, Obscurities in Dallas. I had a lot of time to decide not to do it, as Dallas is about forty-five minutes from where I live, but I wouldn't let jitters get to me. When I have my mind set on a piercing, I do it right then.
I went into the shop and explained to them what I wanted done. They were very friendly (as I'd been there before for other piercings) and I waited about half an hour while they set everything up. I wasn't nervous at all about the procedure while I waited—I just wanted to get home because one of my can't-miss TV shows was coming on in two hours! Another customer came in with his friends and it seemed that they were doing an impulsive piercing, too. He was getting a PA. I wondered if that night was their big night for genital piercings.
Finally I was greeted by Roy, a friendly guy with a shirt that bore a sexy woman tied up with piercings exclaiming "You're going to pierce me where?!" I thought it was a humorous shirt, myself, and kind of wanted one for my own. Roy took me into the back room and we got started deciding on the placement of my piercings. He was VERY meticulous about it. For one he didn't want them to be placed in such a way that they would interfere with intercourse. Another, he didn't want them to be uncomfortable for daily activities, and finally he wanted them to be slightly uneven so the balls wouldn't hit together. I was actually very pleased with this, because it showed his concern as a piercer. He wanted them to be placed just right, so it took about half an hour of us discussing and figuring out where to line them up.
By the time that he brought the needles out my legs were starting to shake, even though I wasn't really nervous. I didn't look at the needles, having been poked all my life for blood tests with chronic asthma as a child, I know never to look at the needle. I lay on the table and waited for the needle to go in. It was taken by surprise by the actual pain of getting the needle in. It was probably the longest three seconds (or shorter) of my life—I hadn't expected it to hurt that much. I took a deep breath and he did the other side, again I felt the immense amount of pain and I made a sound similar to the one I make as I orgasm. It wasn't an orgasmic experience, but I was defiantly happy about it being over with.
He got the jewelry in (curved barbells), and I took a look at them. I was so pleased with them and I had a big smile on my face. I was also very happy at the fact that there was very little blood. I didn't start bleeding until a while after as I was driving home, and it was just spotting at that.
When I got home I couldn't help but look at myself in the mirror unclothed. I felt a renewed sense of sexiness and I felt like the most attractive woman on the planet with my new piercings.
I've had them for a week now, and they're a lot less sore than they were a few days ago. I make sure to clean and soak them twice a day, and I still feel even sexier than I did before now that I have them. I'm surprised at myself that I was able to do something I thought I would never be interested in, but look at me now: I'm so happy with them that I plan to get two more outer labia piercings and a Christina to complete it. Before I was a bit blasé about it, but now I am certainly an advocate of genital piercings! Be it form or function, the choice is yours.
