No, just stupid
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Is it gay for guys to get their tongue pierced?

Yes, having a piece of metal in your mouth instantly makes you a flaming gaylord. :crazy:

Hmmmmmm, all that homophobic behaviour here is more gay in my perception. If you like to get your tongue pierced, then for God sakes do it! I don't know how it would make it gay. I know a lot of gays and I don't know a single one with his tongue pierced.
But anyway, I think it can work out pretty good for you. I think a lot of girls would like to get eaten out by you! And it makes you stand out from other guys. It makes you original. Sure, some girls probably don't like it, but you just can't please everybody. If you only wear things that are a 100% accepted by all the straight guys than you will become a boring idiot. Do weird things. Stand out from the crowd.

It is GAY to have hang ups about anything that you think is taboo.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I think it'd be COOL! You can get a matching toe ring, and maybe even a butterfly tattoo on the small of your back!

Actually no. I DON'T think that. Gays wear a toe-ring, and chicks get tongue piercings, and lower back butterfly tattoos. It's a "composite insult."Guoy Darko said:No, that's just plain stupid. You really think gays do that? What kind of freakin idiot are you?
What kind of idiot am I? One that's not smart enough to stay out of these bullcrap online pissing contests, where supposed "men" say things they wouldn't say to each other's faces.:rock:

Well than don't. I know that girls wear toe rings, get their tongue pierced and have those cheesy butterfly tattoos. I know you were insulting him. But when guys do something that is a little more feminine than the average straight guy would do it's not immediately gay. A lot of guys, for example, paint their nails. Even Erik Von Markovik a.k.a. Mystery paints his nails. Are painted nails still considered gay? Well probably by conservative rednecks but I think the average open-minded person wouldn't think so. Hell, mystery even advises guys to do something about their image that makes them stand out from the crowd. Getting your tongue pierced as a guy is, I think, a perfect example of this.PrinceBeavis said:
Okay, I take it back when I asked if you were a freakin' idiot. It's just that what you said is too simple-minded in my opinion.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I agree things like a pierced tongue can cause you to stand out and give you some pop, but to do it just for the sake of standing out is the wrong reason to do it. Do it because that's what you want to do.Guoy Darko said:
Me personally, I might go for a reasonably sized tattoo that only is shown in casual settings. I'm not a fan of the piercings. Besides, it seems like quite a few more are doing stuff like that, which can make you not as unique.

So that's a yes or a no...
Remember, Batman had Robin around. Hmmm... an eccentric millionare taking an interest in your teenage boy. Especially when the first time they meet, the boy is in tights. Seems kind of wierd... heh heh heh.
Bruce, it's not gay, but like with other assumptions and stereotypes, you'll never hear the end of it. And be prepared for the gay jokes. If you can deal with that, fine.
I have three male buddies who lisp and act really effeminate sometimes. 1 of them being really flamboyant. And they're all happily married. I have another friend who dabbled, but you'd never know it, so... you'll have assumptions either way.
What also matters is your overall look.
My suggestion, if you choose to go ahead with getting a piercing, would be to look at places that do everything hygienically. Even then, be damned careful, because you can seriously mess things up if you get an infection.
Good luck with your decision.
