    I've my tongue done 9 yrs now... I got it done as an annoying little kid!!!
    I'm in the same prediciment as you though... wondering how old is too old for these types of piercings!
    I've just turned 26 and it's making me think I need to re- assess and grow up a bit :(

    I'm 29 and would get one done if I could.

    There is no "too old".

    Yeah, I agree to an extent- but you know sometimes when you see scummer ma's in tracksuits with eyebrow/ tongue piercings etc?
    I'd hate to be viewed as one of them!!! (Even though I'm not a ma and don't wear tracksuits!!)

    You say you'd hate to be viewed as one of them, and then call them "those sorts of people"? Seems a bit hypocritical to me - if you don't want to be viewed as a stereotype for having a tongue piercing, then don't stereotype others.

    Ah **** it, im going to get it done now

    Sorry if it comes across as stereotyping. I do not see it as appealing or attractive to be an older woman with facial piercings. I'm being flippant with my language but did not mean to offend anyone. It's my way of describing the vision I do not like.

    There are a lot of things that certain people don't find appealing or attractive. Doesn't mean the rest of the world thinks the same.

    And I did not say they do. It's all my opinion, I've never stated otherwise.

    If you don't like "the look" of "certain people" with them done, then it's probably not for you.

    I've never really understood why anyone worries about what people think of them with a tongue piercing. It's generally a piercing that people won't know about unless you actually tell them or show it to them.
