I've had mine for over a year now, and few people are actually weird about it. Though I've heard the whole "EW it's a bull-ring"-thing.
A septum piercing is a septum piercing. They're all done in the same place. How can you call yours "tasteful" without assuming all are?
Probably depends on the gauge. An 8g is much different than a cute little 16g.
Be happy you can wear things like that at work, OP. As a security officer, uniform requirements are a lot more strict where i work. A coworker was fired because she routinely forgot about our company policy regarding piercings. After multiple written reports, she was let go.
It's kind of ridiculous to get butt hurt when you are intentionally going against the social norm. I have a full sleeve, if someone said it made them sick it's whatever, it's to be expected sometimes. But I'm not gonna get butt hurt about it, because I made life choices and I'm gonna live with it. **** them. I don't think people are voting YDI because she got a septum piercing, I think people are voting YDI for having a sandy ****** and acting all shocked when people don't like it. And if we're your boss I'd make you take it out for work cuz it's unprofessional... Just like I would make me wear long sleeved shirts.
Why is everyone focusing on the fact that OP used "tasteful"? Its their opinion, calm down. No babies or animals are being killed over OP thinking his septum piercing is "tasteful".
Yeah I never really understood the appeal of septum piercings myself, but you'd have to be a pretty huge twatwaffle for one to make you "sick."
There are some people that have phobias of things in or around their nose and it could genuinely freak them out. I hate the feeling of being unable to breathe and looking at people in corsets really freaks me out to the point of vomiting.
Fair point, and I could grant someone that. There was something about the way OP worded it (if their account is indeed true) that made me believe this woman was deliberately over-exaggerating her distaste just to be snide, rather than reacting out of a legitimate phobia.
Some people just have really visceral reactions to some things. I have no problem with piercings in general, but even thinking about a split tongue makes me cringe, and once when I realized someone near me had one I had to look away very quickly because my gorge was literally rising. I didn't say anything about it and didn't want to be rude to anyone, but my physical reaction was all too real and I'm afraid they probably noticed.
Uhh I didn't that people should live in fear of other people's fears? I was pointing out the flip side where the woman's reaction would have been more understandable. Like whenever someone bitches about able-bodied people using handicap spots I point out invisible illnesses.
Was it sterling silver? She might be a werewolf
That's pretty rude for her to say, people have different tastes, what she says should mean nothing to others.
"Tasteful"

Did you gag back at her attitude?
Definitely not. Whenever I see one I imagine a bull stamping it's hoof.
