You put a needle where? Reasons behind female body piercing
December 29, 2004

There are many reasons that women choose to get a female body
piercing. While keeping up with or even keeping ahead of trends is
certainly part of it, the reasons behind getting female body
piercings are as varied as the piercings themselves.
Some people may view genital and nipple piercings as kinky or
depraved. Why would any woman choose to modify her body in such a
way? For some women, it is a form of feminist expression. Great
strides have been made in women’s rights, but there are those who
still feel like just a pawn in a world of men. Studies show that
exercising personal control over the body is one reason a woman
would choose to pierce sexually heightened areas such as the nipples
or genitals.
For other women, piercing their most private body parts is a kind
of reclamation project. That sad truth is that an all-too-high
percentage of women will be the victim of a form of sexual abuse. A
woman might choose piercing as a means to reclaim her body as her
own or as a form of empowerment.
But there are less heavy reasons as well. A woman who has trouble
reaching orgasm may opt for a vertical clitoral hood piercing or
other female genital piercing in hopes that the added stimulation
will improve her quality of sexual response. The added feelings of
sexiness and sensuality are just as beneficial for some women as the
actual physical sensation of the jewelry.
Piercing the body of course sends a message. But for many women
with a pierced body part, it’s not the same message. Personal
reasons, some very intense, lie behind the decision to be pierced.
