Penis piercing

[Toenail]

I am thinking of getting a piercing. Is it against buddhist ethics or vows or so? E.g. counting as mutilating ones body etc?

[Knotty Veneer]

No! Just no. Why would you mutilate yourself like that??

My legs are going to be crossed all morning, now.

Demonstrably unhealthy, and you’ll never pee correctly again, if you thinking of getting a Prince Albert.

Also, as a Vajrayana practitioner, arguably a bad idea.

Because it is a violation of vows?

I would never get it through the tip, but I like how frenulum piercings look.

There is no explicit vow against, but piercing the body opens it to infection, and they are permanent open sores. But it’s your dick, so you do whatever you want to it.

Doesnt the wound close though?

Just against common sense imo.

[Archie2009]

I mean, having sex with someone's partner with your new penis piercing. I just don't see the appeal. But then you couldn't pay me to get a tattoo.

[amanitamusc]

If you did get one you could at least hang a mini prayer flag from it.

[Archie2009]

I wonder, once your testicles are swollen from the vaccine, what would catch the eye the most?

[reiun]

This would probably work for someone who was actually dangerous. But for a poseur? It would appear compensatory.

No, not really.

Mod note: I think this is a fine thing to discuss, however I encourage folks to keep discussion to the dharma related implications of this piercing which was the initial question. We're dangerously close to the medical advice prohibition.

Its not a medical procedure, which is why you can get it done in a tat parlor.

(my bold)

I think the discussion is in the grey area with people giving advice about medical implications, so I'm just "encouraging" and not telling people they can't.

PM if you want to further discuss moderation of this thread.

Can I just gently suggest that when you meet your future in-laws for the first time, that you don't open the conversation with that.

You can't imagine that that could be pleasurable?

[amanitamusc]

Give someone a little power and it really goes to the head.Is that what penis piercing is all about.Penis power?

Crystal meth is also pleasurable. Not conducive to liberation from saṃsāra, though.

Not really.
