I've been thinking about getting my tongue split for quite some time,
but never really took the thought too seriously
Now that I'm in a new area, there is a piercer a few hours away that
actually performs the forking, so it's a possibility and I've
been debating it more and more.
B0ggers/B0ggettes, you guys seem to know what's best with your
twisted-ness. what's your opinion on tongue splitting?

I want to modify my body.
It's very subtle, you can't notice it unless the tongue is
hanging out of your mouth and you're spreading the forks apart.
Otherwise your tongue stays in your mouth, and if you point your
tongue out it stays together
Post a full frontal and rear nude including your face and we'll decide
if it's worth it...
but if that's a no... then I'd say... no. When you are old you
will drool uncontrollably anyway, do you really need help? And besides...
who has 2 assholes to lick?
i have always preferred to observe freaks and laugh at them, rather that
become one myself.
it would be one thing if body mod/tat folks stopped at one tat, one
piercing, and/or one body mod...
we have a girl at work who has gotten 'just one more tattoo' more
times than i can count. she's still cute, but she's starting to
round the bend... and it's a shame.
i'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that this isn't your
first body mod, and i'm not trying to disrespect you in jour journal
space, but you have to ask yourself 'will this look cool when
i'm fifty, or will it just look pathetic?'
most of the tat/body mod peeps i know shake their fists in the air and yell
'i wont live to be fifty... it's better to burn out than fade
away... carpe diem...' but oh yes you will, in all probability.
sorry about the text attack, but i've been doing homework all night,
and i was in a typing mood...
ha no it's alright. yeah i have some scarification, liclit posted
it in a journal for me a while ago, before i had my journal.
that's the main reason why i'm having doubts, is that i
don't want to be fifty and feel awkward about the split tongue
That reminded me of something I heard last night...
I'll rip off your ears and shove'em up yer rear so you can
hear me kickin' yer ass.
*shrugs* It was funny at the time.
You should definitely go for it. Dont get discouraged by those people who
tell that you will look like idiot when you will be 50. Or that there is no
point in doing such thing. Body modification is something what you do for
yourself, not for other people.
ha *reads comment below*
yeah i just want to see the general response of the people here,
i'm not letting them discourage me. infact, whenever people tell
me "no don't do it, it's disgusting", it makes me
want to do it more.
but i really am concerned about when i'm older, cus what if my
values and what not change
Wellwellwell I don't know. Maybe in a few years you'll hang out
with a perfect missus (say, me for example) and once he kisses you he
couldn't like it. I wouldn't care. But if you ever have a son and
you try to make him laugh toting your tongue out and making silly faces, he
could be scarred for life :D
Also, he'll buy all the VISITORS series on DVD or whatever the hell of
a mainstream format we'll have in 10 years.
Bleh. Sorry, there's "being unique" and then there is
"attention starved." Forking your tongue is definitely in the
latter category. Soon it'll lead to getting "lizard
tattoos" on your face and you'll wear yellow contacts to
"compelte the look."
It always saddens me when normally pretty girls feel the need to disfigure
themselves.
Not for attention? Then what is it for? You're not getting
it to just play around in your mouth, right?
And it's not subtle. Anyone who talks to you will be
distracted by it. Subtle is something you notice more in the
absence of it; something you don't say "what the hell
is that?!" Subtle is maybe a glint of silver from a pierced
tongue, not a couple of flapping pieces of skin that used to be a
tongue.
Do what you want. It's your body. I'd just find it a
shame.
then what for? it's for me! i'm not getting it for
anyone else
i've talked to people before and i haven't even
realized that they have had their tongues split until we get
on the topic of body mods and they bring up that it has
happened.
flapping pieces of the tongue? the tongue is a muscle that
is controlled, it's not skin, and it doesn't flap
around...
i don't think that's very wise. getting your tounge split
probably means having problems arcituclating yourself properly. if i'd
come across a chick with a split tounge i'd think of her as a freak -
a sexy, crazy freak - but a freak nevertheless..
I like the idea...
i really like bodymods..
and i would love to kiss a girl with a split tongue..
i think the best thing you can do is talk to someone that has a splitted
tongue and know how it is and stuff..
but looks like most part of the guys wont like it..
