Topic: Pearling (body modification)


  
  Pearling
Pearling refers to the practice of permanently inserting small beads made of various materials beneath the skin of the shaft of the penis.
The practice seems to have been fairly common across world cultures; pearling is still done today and is seen as a form of body modification.
In the west pearling is sometimes done by body piercers, and sometimes by people (who are rarely qualified doctors and often very publicity-shy, for fear of legal repercussions) who specialize in surgical body modification.

Body modification in the form of tattooing and piercing is traditionally viewed with reserve in contemporary Western societies.
Body ornamentation, especially tattooing, was spread among Western societies when soldiers and sailors returning from conquest and trade imitated the practices they had seen among the indigenous people of Asia, Africa and the South Pacific.
However, whilst body modification may be finding new levels of acceptance in certain areas of society, motivations for tattooing and piercing among adolescents and middle class women are profoundly different in nature from those of the sailors, soldiers, bikers and gang members more commonly associated with such practices in the West.
