No piercings in my body.

I only wear wedding band. I sort of have this fear of getting things snagged and ripping off a body part. :eek:

Hmmm you ONLY wear a wedding band? Are you not cold going around without cloths on?

:D

Well I too have no official comment, but on the shy - if my butt can look like that picture after they are done - then I will be first in line for the tattoo.

A side note - I've actually been thinking of getting my belly button re-peirced....Hmmmm wonder if I am up to the hassle of taken care of it while it heals...since this is the Q n A, I better behave -

Ok a question.........do you have a body part peirced and if so - what?

I have double pierces in my ears, but have let one set close.

I pierced my belly button back in 92 or 93. I took the ring out in 2000, but have wanted to have it redone.

I'm with Sassy on the fanny tattoo; if my ass was as nice as Bi's....
In the meantime, I'll stick with the one that I have already.
 
question

This one relates to political/moral beliefs and I'm interested in answers from those in relationships as well as those of us who are not.

When you have polar opposite views, how has it affected your relationship? Did you question even having a relationship with someone who feels differently about a certain topic, be it abortion, war, capital punishment etcetera? Do conversations become overheated, do you have "healthy" disagreements, does it become an agreement to disagree? Has anyone had their mind changed from one way of believing to another?

Just a little post script:
The question wasn't asked from the viewpoint of seeking advice. I'm not in a relationship, nor am I looking for one. I was curious about what kind of differences there are between people who are interested in each other and so on.

I guess I'm not very good at asking questions.

i've been in relationships where this has happened... in fact, i've been in relationships where it's happened a LOT.

i think of two things here:

1. any argument or discussion is just fine between SO's... the only thing you have to remember is to listen and make sure your SO realizes you're listening. as long as views are heard, they tend to be respected.

2. philosophical disagreements are no big deal. the fact that you can have a good relationship with someone while having these different viewpoints just supports the fact that attraction, at its biological core, functions on a level that's above the physical and even intellectual plane.

Oh, gosh. I tend to avoid Lit's political threads because I think it's possible to disagree with people without having to be right or one-upping them, and a lot of the political threads quickly become an exercise in who can heap the most abuse on someone with an opposing viewpoint.

My husband's really conservative (not Republican--conservative). He's not, however, religious (I'm just mentioning that because there are people out there who assume that all conservatives are religious whackos). My views tend to be more to the left of my hubby's, but I don't think I'm a liberal (or Democrat). I'd call myself a fence-sitter in a lot of ways, because I find it difficult to believe that there are only two sides to every issue.

We agree with each other on some issues, but there also some issues on which we disagree, and we don't try to change each other. For the most part, we've agreed to disagree, but we occasionally can't resist getting in little "digs" at each other.

It's more important to me that we agree on how to raise our children than whether or not we agree or disagree with each other's views on capital punishment. :)

I always wonder how those two manage to keep from killing each other.
It may have something to do with being able to open your mouth and she is congenitally unable to do so. Does make me wonder about certain aspects of their sex life, though. :rolleyes:
