Avis said her death might be "an extreme example" of what can occur when people have lips, tongues, eyebrows, genitals and other body parts punctured in the name of fashion.

Well, that's an understatement.

The neighbor girl where we used to live had her tongue pierced. It swelled waaay up. Moron. She lived to tell about it but why, on God's green earth, would someone want to pierce ANY part of their body that is so sensitive to pain? The point is.....?

Ears too. Any hole in your skin any where not properly taken care of can get infected and kill you.

Me neither.

I think anything other than ear piercing should be listed as a medical procedure.

In other words, you should have to have a medical doctor do any of these radical procedures.
