Metal Jewelry Piercings Hazardous in Cold Weather
Slovenian Media has recommended to the German Meteorological Institute they should warn those with jewelry body piercings that the metal can freeze and cause them harm in this extreme and unusually cold European winter. The metal rings can freeze, causing harm to the body parts they are adorning. So I guess the bottom line is don’t go out with your nipple rings. Or some such thing.
Upon reading this article, or warning, I am reminded of the proverbial kid who in freezing weather just had to stick his tongue on the metal flagpole. LIke Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby, his tongue would stick to the freezing steel, until either the fire department or an alert school teacher could free him from the imprisonment. Of course, having heard about it, or having read it somewhere, our mothers would admonish us against testing out our own tongues against any frozen piece of metal.
Now with so many people partaking in piercings, it is small wonder that such a warning was necessary. You have the previously mentioned nipple rings, the earrings, nose rings, tongue studs and studs down a littel further in the anatomy. I have to wonder what does the hapless soul do for groceries when he or she has had implants, that is either ball bearings, studs or whatever pieces of metal implanted under the skin. Usually these pieces are planted in some sensitive regions, be it the penis, scrotum, clitoris, or in a lovely encirclement of the vagina. I guess the tattoo and piercing artist never advised them about implants and cold weather.
I would think if you freeze up there, you may be truly frozen in your sex life for quite some time to come. There is frostbite and then again there is this kind of frostbite. I suppose it is the price we pay for our personal vanities. Whatever form it takes.
