Becky Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 Does anyone know what it means to have either the right or left side of your nose pierced? I just got mine done on Friday, the left, but I'm noticing a lot of people with the right done too. Is there any significance to which side? Link to post Share on other sites
wideawake Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 none that I'm aware of. My wife has the right side of her nose pierced, I think it was just becuase she preferred that side over the left, though I've known woman to pierce the left as well. Link to post Share on other sites
tattoomytoe Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 well when guys first started getting their ears pierced it was said that the right ear pierced meant that you were gay. but that was years ago....now a days it is what ever YOU like is what you have done. Link to post Share on other sites

shamen Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I don't think that the sides mean anything. I've had mine done for 15 years and not a single person has ever said anything to me about this. But I did once have an Indian man (from India, not Native American) tell me that the color and/or the kind it is do mean something there. Whether it's silver or gold, etc. I only wish I could remember what he told me... Link to post Share on other sites
atrium_manor Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 In India the side(s) as well as the type of jewellery worn usually signifies the location/community that the girl belongs to. I live in a very traditional community and both my nostrils and septum are pierced. Link to post Share on other sites
Jason33 Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Personally I dont think the side matters (for some reason I prefer seeing the right on a woman), but I do have a preference for the jewlery, a really super tiny diamond..very sexy! Link to post Share on other sites
