Hanging from hooks is weird. Hanging with hookers is normal. Both give you intense feelings of euphoria, but one leaves you needing a shot of penicillin and the other leaves you needing a tetnus shot*. See the difference?
I see what you're getting at, however I think it's rather foolish to assume that it's wierd because you don't do it. Escargo is "wierd" to most people, and yet its common in alot of places.
I think my biggest problem with what you've said is the implication that you're doing something unsafe when practicing it. (The tetenus shot bit.) Odds are that a piercer is helping in suspension (at least here in Portland) and I would go out on a limb and say that at least 90% os piercers in Mult. county are licensed and certified by the health board. (I have never met a piercer who uses a needle twice) Hooks are a bit different, but think about what an autoclave does.
Your not really seeing this as something some people look at almost spiritually. For me that endorphine rush from just piercing makes sex obsolete. Pain is a lifestyle, being a ****** and dating a sadomasochist has been more fun than any relationship I've ever had. If "wierd" is wrong I don't want to ever be right. I'll let the cowards have "Straight Sex" I want something with zest. I say try out some piercing totem, theres lots of temporary piercings you can get that you only leave in a few days, then come back and tell us how you feel. ^^ (You only live once.)
