      People pierce all kinds of parts of their bodies for all kinds of reasons. Aesthetics, affinity with subcultures, and yeah, functioning associated with sexual pleasure.

      People will literally insert metal hooks into themselves and suspend themselves from the wall. That’s not even necessarily a sex thing.

      It’s stupid cute, and my nipples are still super sensitive so it’s hasn’t really been a detriment. Idk, I love mine, I’d pierce them again if I had to.

      For individuals with inverted nipples, it may aid in form them, by the scar tissues.

      And many do it exactly for sexual stimulation, personal affirmation or just aesthetics.

      Why the emphasis on judgement? You don’t like it, just don’t do it. People have the right to dispose of their body as they see fit.

              This is genuine curiosity.

              what does it do besides mutilating an erogenous zone?

              The moment you assign a negative conotation, you are passing judgement.

              Others have replied saying that having such piercings did not hamper their sensitivity or even increased it.

              I mentioned it can even serve to correct inverted nipples.

              I respect you do not see such practice in a favorable way but if you don’t like, just don’t do it. Nobody is advocating for it.
