My christmas present to me!
Anyone who knows me is aware of my love of body mods like tattoos and piercings. I’ve already got two tattoos and one lip piercing, but I’m always researching what I want to get next. This weekend I was lucky enough to be able to take advantage of a permanent piercing demo presented by the local bdsm group The East Coast Kink Contingent (TECKC).
I’ve been thinking for quite a while about getting a triangle piercing. For any who don’t know, aesthetically it looks similar to a horizontal hood piercing, but the placement of the jewelry is underneath the clitoral nerve bundle rather than on top through the hood. This is a very anatomy-dependent piercing; you have to have a large clit and enough room behind it for it to be easily lifted away from the body. Some of the worst horror stories associated with this piercing are due to unqualified piercers performing it on unsuitable bodies. Since the bar passes under the nerve bundle it provides a different sensation than hood piercings, and in researching it I was hoping for easier and more intense orgasms once it healed.
With all that in mind I arranged a consultation with Lee at Progress Piercing in Raleigh to find out if I was suited for it. After a couple of minutes poking and prodding while I lay half-naked on the table, Lee exclaimed that I was perfectly suited for a triangle, and reeled off a whole list of other genital piercings that I was well-suited for. I declined the rest of the list…I’ll just start with one thanks. *grin*
So, nervous as hell, I watched during the demo while Lee gave a man two ten gauge scrotal rings (which were hot as hell), and a woman a tragus piercing…then it was my turn.
Once again I sat half-naked; this time in front of an audience, while he went over with them the seriousness of the piercing, and importance of anatomy and having a qualified piercer. He covered aftercare, and the importance of gentleness once I start having sex again, and then it was time to lie back and spread ‘em.
He marked the area, placed the clamps, and told me to breath; then shoved the needle through in one smooth, quick motion. One moment of hot pain (that was less than getting my nipples done) and then just a warm throbbing while he replaced the needle with the jewelry and fixed the end caps on the bar. Very quick, very easy, and nowhere near as painful as I’d been led to believe.
The ride home was interesting…both feet propped wide open on the dash, and the seat laid back. In the last couple of days I’ve been doing the recommended salt water soaks and cool water rinses, and have had very minimal twinges from the piercing. Cant play with it obviously, but I have found that apparently the kitty likes it since Ive been pretty constantly wet and horny since I got home. How ironic is that? I finally have the constant desire for sex that the men in my life want, but now I can’t act on it…talk about torture!


Congratulations! triangles are awesome piercings.
I’m hoping its as awesome as Ive heard! Right now I’m still doing pretty well…little to no pain, and I was even able to resume my cardio schedule.
