He wants to get a prince albert. I am really concerned, like, what if he gets and infection, what if half way through he decides not to. I'm not his boss or anything but I really wish that he'd think about this longer. He's getting his nose peirced and his tongure peirced, etc. But I don't agree with the Prince Albert, I do respect his decisions but this is one that I'm really concerned about.

Could someone fill me in on the details of how it works to ease my anxious mind? I'd really appreciate it. And opinions would be well thanked.

I must be living under a rock or something. What is a 'prince albert'. I don't think it was something that Prince Albert had attached or done to his body. God forbid.

I had no idea what that was until I googled it. Wow... umm... have you done that yet? I'm guessing you know what it is but I didn't and I kind of cringed when I saw it. To me it just says "ouch" but I could be wrong

Okay, I googled too, but this is the most interesting part of getting a prince albert, which for the unitiated, is a piercing at the end of the penis, the narrow part where it is circumsized. Actually, it is best if one is circumsized for this operation.

Risks and effects

In the first day, most men submitted to the PA piercing urinate blood. Some men find that the dribble caused by the PA when urinating necessitates sitting down to urinate. This is not caused by the hole made during piercing, but rather by urine traveling along the surface of the jewelry. At other times, if a ring is worn that is too narrow (this can happen if the wearer down-sizes from a lower gauge jewelry to a higher), or if no ring is worn at all, an additional stream of urine may come from the hole in the frenulum. This effect may be exaggerated by different sizes and styles of jewelry. This is usually a problem only when using urinals. It can often be mitigated by either twisting the penis so that the hole is above the flow from gravity, or by holding the finger or captive bead against the hole, effectively sealing it off.

I don't know about the additional or lack of sexual pleasure given from this type of piercing. It wouldn't appeal to me and the thought doesn't do anything for me at all.

Anyone want to chime in. Maybe Synnen or talaniman.

A prince Albert is a peircing of the males... um... genitalia. I guess that's the only way I could describe it.
So yeah. HELP!

I just read that... And, well, that was the almost most unappealing thing I've ever heard of that you could do to a human body. Yuck. And yuck some more. I can't believe he wants to get that done. *Wails in head*
