10. My dad did in fact use the exact word "barbaric"
He didn't get it. This was in the early 80s and everyone I knew had their ears pierced by the time they were 12. But my dad was stuck in the dark ages.

My mom was a little more in touch with modern culture, though, and she finally convinced him to let me get them done before I got to junior high. Later I had multiple piercings in each ear and I also had my navel pierced when I was 19. I kept that last one in until I lost my taut early 20's tummy to middle age, and then I let it heal over. :)
