How many ear piercings?

[Helen]

@"ByGrace" PS: These days a voucher for ear piercing would be regarded as a fairly safe Christmas gift for a granddaughter or even grandson, maybe, if he would be into that sort of thing. Especially with granddaughters, there often seems to be another set of holes that they are contemplating, right?

Not this year ...my christmas shopping was finished weeks ago. Thankfully ...

Well, maybe ear piercing vouchers would be something to fall back on, on another Christmas or granddaughters' (or even grandsons') birthdays.

(See as doing it seems to have become so popular, right?)

Give it up.

@"ByGrace" Something tells me @Blueberry doesn't like earrings... :)

@Mayflower So do you think ear piercing vouchers make good fallback Christmas gifts? (it's so popular, so widespread...)

The Biblical bondservant aspect is the only reason why I would consider piercing an ear.

I wonder how many Christian men over this season have acquired earrings with a similar intention to reflect the Biblical bondservant truth? A good, wholesome aim to have, certainly.

Maybe your wife can get to enjoy the truth behind it - even if not currently the actual practice?

Yes...and that may lead into her eventually allowing it...we will see what happens.

We tend to go through the word so if the subject comes up I will teach her on it.

Yes, it's a journey in Scripture understanding which you and your wife can make together; and which may eventually lead to your desired perforation/stud insertion.

You'll be looking for that moment when she is "ready" for you to do it.

I don't know if I will be ready...I will cross that bridge when I come to it.

Anyway, Christmas seems to be a time when grandchildren show with new, hitherto unobserved ear piercings, right...?

 

[farouk]

@Mayflower I guess Christmas now is a time when husbands as well as wives might get given earrings as Christmas gifts... :)

Lol. I got a Keurig and a very nice smuggler which is a big blanket hoodie. I love it. I dont wear earrings much now, but my daughter got some nice ones from my sister. I never heard of ear pierce vouchers. Seems like a neat gift.

If your wife does indeed eventually withdraw her objection, courage to do it may come to you more easily.

Perhaps.

Perhaps.

I guess you'll welcome the extra courage.

So she never had it done herself?

Not that I am aware of. We've only been married twelve years (and I've never seen her wear an earring).

 

[farouk]

we are not allowed jewellery at work.

These days the young men get earrings as well (if allowed in work situations). —You may perhaps have male family members who have had them put in also.
