I loved my belly ring and the only reason I don't still have it is because pole dancing involves contorting my stomach which was causing issues with the ring. But I have so many others, nose, nips, ears gauged to an 8, industrial, nips, vch, tongue, also five large tattoos and my ear length mohawk is dreadlocked. But I'm also fit so they seem to enhance and really showcase my personality rather than cry out for attention. Its the pole dancing that I get more "look what I can do" about. But thats also more about pride because its a hard ass sport and my accomplishments with it make me super confident.  I say if you want the belly go for it, worst case scenario you dont like it take it out, heal the wound carefully and maybe you have a teensy scar.
