I don't understand how piercings can offend people... I suppose extremely conservative old ladies would be offended?

Anyway, I just have three piercings in each ear. I'm laying low on adding more for now, since a few weeks ago my cartilage became infected and it was such a burden to deal with (hospital, antibiotics, swollen face, etc). I want to get a tattoo or a few when some meaningful image comes into my life. I'm hesitant toward body mods, though, since they're permanent and I just don't think they'd look too good on me. Besides all that, I'm planning on working in business, so I'd only want to get something that's easy to hide under a business suit.
