those rings are only for bulls, also, because it's one of the few ways you can get a lever on a fully mature adult male
so, it may look like a symbol of domestication, in fact it's an individual who is segregated for high class level domestication, ie, they are chosen to reign over the rest of the flock
so there may be some aspect of that in it, i never really thought much about it
the piercing is a very easy one to get wrong but for me i didn't even feel it, turns out i have a very thin skin part in the right spot and it was less painful than an ear piercing, i was stoked because several people i'd talked to about it who got it done said it was like being punched in the nose
i'm not gonna read into it any further than that tho, there's a real practical reason why they do it co bulls, and they do it because they are powerful
