t’s very dangerous to get a piercing in a less developed country like Singapore. I spend a lot of time in Africa, and Americans don’t realize that other countries don’t have the strong health and safety regulations we do. In the US, if you get a piercing, you know that the shop has met government rules for sanitizing their equipment and preventing transmission of dangerous diseases. In poorer countries, they don’t have those regulations, and even where they do, they don’t enforce them.
Therefore, if you get a piercing in a poorer country like Singapore, you have a much higher risk of getting AIDS, Hepatitis or a severe infection. A severe infection could ruin your trip (and cost you a lot in doctor bills if you don’t have traveler’s health insurance). As I’m sure you know, AIDS and Hepatitis are lifelong, often fatal diseases. Sorry to say it but I think you should get a less dangerous souvenir of your trip.

You’ve got to be kidding me. Soxna, have you even BEEN to Singapore? Poor country? And do you know how high our standards are?
Fuck your whole family @Ang4MohTrump !
