Horizontal Clitoral Hood Piercing edit

Horizontal Clitoral Hood Piercing: "This usually includes having a gigantic metal ball sitting on the clit, causing girls to shake their legs incessantly for instant pleasure." I did some research into the truth of this statement and found nothing that appeared to be legitimately scientific. Comments? Kialari 21:50, 6 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

I thought I removed that particular piece of vandalism/POV/crap a while back. Thanks for catching it. Although the piercing is usually placed to stimulate the clitoris casually, there isn't any evidence, even anecdotal, that wearers engage in the described behavior. We get a lot of pseudoscience & urban legend here in the body modification area of Wikipedia. Glowimperial 20:34, 7 February 2006 (UTC)Reply
Scientific evidence..? please. just ask a girl. (else you may conduct a doule blinded full scale test including a neutrality text group. sleep with all of them(including the ugly ones) and report your findings in a statistical manner. lol.--Procrastinating@talk2me 19:08, 8 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

"There are urban legends about hood piercings (which are often confused with clitoris piercings) either causing uncontrolled sexual stimulation or even orgasm, or where the constant stimulation leads to the desensitization of the clitoris and the difficulty or inability of the bearer to orgasm. There are no known cases of either of these things occurring." I am not sure I agree with this. I read a lot of reviews from a lot of different places/people over about 3 years before getting my vch, and I have read that it is indeed possible to be desensitised from a vertical piercing due to the constant stimulation. However the problem is usually fixed by changing or removing the jewellery.

"However not all females have the proper anatomical placement to have a successfully healed piercing done. So if you are looking into this piercing check with a piercer and be prepared to hear you may not be able to get it done due to the location and placement." This doesn't seem very professional to me... Why all the second person pronouns? Can that be changed or should it be left as is? 96.244.95.105 (talk) 23:29, 9 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Disgusting pictures edit

Dont you think it is disgusting and nonacademic to post gratuitous nudity on these public boards. Just because of this, Wikipedia is probably banned in all kinds of schools and stuff. People are probably going to respond by saying, oh this is about education and has to be real, well, too bad poor little Timmy from History class wont be able to find information on WWII because of your fetish of showing disturbing images to everyone! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Philiplynch (talkcontribs)

Wikipedia is not censored (see WP:CENSOR); you can imagine it would be very difficult to find where to draw the line to avoid offending anyone's tastes. --TeaDrinker 17:19, 28 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
Disturbing images? Fetish? YOU found your way here, I wonder how that happened.. BirdbrainedPhoenix (talk) 03:53, 2 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

It is a perfectly valid point that in many cultures and situations, including many Western cultures in child protection circumstances, the pictures in this article are clearly considered pornography and lead to the article, if not the whole Wikipedia "blacklisted".

I suspect there is a higher percentage of women who develop difficulties with this type of piercing than other types, and I wonder if there is not research or evidence about this that could be included/documented, without being immediately deleted by pro-piercing types. I have been with two women with pierced hoods, my wife and a girlfriend before that. BOTH women have had their piercings removed becuase of longterm pain/complications. No problems after the piercings (round circlets in both cases) were removed, but constant irritation when they were in.I have heard one other woman complain (to my wife) of a similar experience. I suspect most folks do fine, but there is a greater chance of complications with this type of piercing than others.214.13.130.104 (talk) 09:05, 6 March 2010 (UTC)TexxasFinnReply

Racist edit

We need image of black women with clit piercing. --36.72.218.246 (talk) 07:16, 3 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Then get one. The image needs to be taken, and then donated to the project. There have only ever been two pictures submitted to this article, back in the 2000s, nothing is stopping a black woman from posting. Alexis.shaw (talk) 12:26, 20 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Alternatives edit

Are all these recent additions really necessary? They don't relate directly to the piercing but to sexual pleasure. Biofase flame| stalk  23:09, 12 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
