Considering the number of people who seem to get turned on by
having unusual parts of their body pierced with metal, I wouldn't
be so certain. I agree that using a strimmer to do that is
kinky even by modern tastes, but there's no accounting for tastes.

I know a lady doctor who tells a painful tale of the bloke who claimed

sustained dreadful injuries to - um - well, to have fitted, it *MUST*
have been a bit of a weed...
