I literally had never a seen a single person who looks good with them. Not a single person had ever said they look beautiful.
To add to all of that you need to have a hole in your body to have them.
Seriously, why the heck does it exist anyway?

I have though!

They look beautiful.
Modern
How new do you think body modification is? Cause it’s like at least a 5000 years old practice.
I think 5k is a a very low number for that.
5300 at least, since Ötzi had pierced ears.
But also evidence going back like 11k years from Turkey. And it might be a bunch older, it’s just hard to find evidence.
Otzi, literally the oldest mummy found in Europe, has tattoos. Body mods are as old as humanity. OP is definitely in the unpopular opinion camp here.
body piercing … inventions in modern history
🤦♂️

This is objectively incorrect. Everything else stands fine as being your personal opinion. As to why they exist? Simply because everyone has different tastes and a lot of people do enjoy having them and seeing them. This is pretty much the answer to any question that involves why some people like something while others don’t.
They’re not a modern invention.
It’s a form of expression. For me, it’s pain that I choose to endure for something that is aesthetically pleasing.
I agree that it looks like shit, but that’s irrelevant. It’s something somebody decides to do with their own body, and is nobody else’s business

What if I told you that what people do with their bodies may (and stick with me here) have absolutely nothing to do with what pleases you? Who made you the body police in the first place?
Who made you the body police in the first place?
No one?
This is the unpopular opinions community?
Saying you think they are unattractive is one thing. Calling them an ‘invention of modern history’ is nearly as dumb as saying a name tag is advertising.
