 Welcome back to Everyway Woman, so we'd like to encourage the host to bring a little bit of their lives to this set. And today Madison wants to talk about a controversial decision she's trying to make. Yes. Before I was married, I got a belly button ring. Bottom belly button ring. Okay. With my girlfriend, we're 21, we had a few drinks. But we did it safe. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. And after marriage, my husband at that time had taken it out. And he would take it out at night and he said, he loved it when we were single and dating. As soon as we were married, he said, that's not what my wife wears. And he would take it out. And every night he would take it out. I'd put it back in. And he'd take it out. I'd put it back in. And then eventually it just got lost. And I just left it out. I figured, oh, he doesn't need it. I guess, you know, I'm not a young kid anymore. It was a little bit of yourself. So years later, kids, we're talking 20 years later, 20 plus years later. I'm dating someone. And I still have the hole from the ring. And he says, why don't you just go get that, put a new one in. And I looked at him like, why? I'm like, I'm 42 or 43 soon. Why would I put a belly button ring? I did it when I was young and stupid. And he goes, well, why did you take it out? It looks good. You would look good on you. Why not put it back in? So why not put it back in? I'm asking. There is there. I think you should absolutely put it back in. I am insane with rage that your first husband took it out of you. But am I too old? Am I too old to say, now I'm, now I, now here's the rules, right? I'm a mom now. If I go to the PTA, are you going to go to the PTA in a crop top and we have some issues? But if you think it's yourself, and it's just something that you and he share and it's fun for you, why not? Now if I would have to leave it in, now with my kids see it, if it's coming, popping out, you know, is that an issue? Because my kids are five. Would you let your daughter get one when she's of age? When she's of age, she does what she wants. Oh, okay. You know? Okay. You know, I don't. Okay. All right. All right, mama. I, I think, I'm with Jason on this. I think that if you want to put it in, and that's a part of you that made you feel sexy and your new partner likes that you can, just count up the consequences. Your daughter asks, mommy, can I have a belly button ring? Right? And you know, and if you say when you get a certain age, you can, and, but why can't she show it? Let me go back to, why, why, why can't, as long as she doesn't show it? Because if it's age appropriate for her to put it in, it should be age appropriate for her to be able to show. To show it. Well, okay. If you're going to show it in a bikini, absolutely. I was just saying, don't show it at the PTA in a crop top. Why not? Because it's an age appropriate place. Exactly. Because I was looking at some things online about it, because I'm thinking, well, should I, should I not? And I, one blogger was saying that, oh, well, you're a hoe, or a skank, or if you do this and you're showing everybody that you're even in a certain type of, but I'm not insecure about that. But I'm wondering, if they're not insecure about it, then why haven't you just put it back in? Well, because she's, because she's conscientious as a mother. Right now, we're in a different place, a slightly different place. In my life, is it, because I hear Stacey saying all the time, oh, it's not age appropriate. Absolutely. I won't do that because it's not appropriate for my age. And I'm sitting here going, well, I'm thinking about putting on a belly button ring, I'm going to stand on both the beach, let my hair out, and put on some heels, you know. And here she is, and you're going, that's not age appropriate. I can't wear a skirt. Hello, my name. I'm Madison. You'll go ahead and go, go. You're in my skirt. In my stomach, right? In my stomach too fat. Why? First of all, that's not appropriate for me. It's not appropriate for me. I never had one. But she has the physique that she can wear, and she had one, right? So I think that you should do what you feel. But I applaud you. Would you touch it? If I got it. I would. I would touch it. I applaud you for really thinking about that. And take it. I really do. And I applaud you for that because some people just jump into it. And as a mother, you see, she said, I got to think about the impression it's going to leave on my children, on my daughter. I do want to know how you're going to respond, though. Let's say your daughter comes home at 15 and wants a belly button ring. Well, you know, I would say there's a time and a place. Okay. And I tell them now, it's age appropriate, not age appropriate. You know, I'm wondering if you were actually considering it before he suggested it. Yes, I was, a little bit. So you were happy he suggested it? I really, actually, I was surprised because I just had it in my head from my ex that all your this and this and this, you just, they don't do that. And that people would think it was trashy. But yeah, I was a little excited. Part of you were really clever. I was a little excited. But he was like, why don't you do that? Let's go get one. And you're not, not putting it in because you're not holding any baggage from your ex, are you? I mean, because when somebody takes something away from you, that was important. You could subconsciously be saying, you know what? I really don't want to do that because I don't want this new person to say something about it down the road. But there was that dialogue going on, too. There was some of that dialogue going on. Bam, bam, I knew it. Got me. So, eliminate all that baggage. A man says, put it in, you have a great physique. It's going to be sexy. Do what you can. Just no stasis, not going to happen. I might consider it. Okay, so since we're just being open, we'll continue the dialogue. You're going with me, right? That's really what you're saying. We'll see, we'll see. More on every way, woman. Stay tuned. So, yes, as you were saying, now that we're being open.
