Those barnyard nose rings are THE WORST.

When I someone with one of those things, I just want to tether them to a hitching post over yonder.

You need to read your bible more.

In Genesis 24:22 Abraham's servant gives Rebekah a golden nose ring weighing either half a shekel or a "beka" depending on the translation. In any event it was a hefty golden nose ring, and the fact that she wore it immediately implies that her septum was already pierced. Possibly even occupied by a lesser quality nose ring.

HMMM, that’s interesting. So tattoos are out, but nose rings are OK.

Well, apologies in advance, but I’m pretty sure if I saw Rebekah and her nose ring, I’d think she looked like a barnyard animal too.

Either her septum or the side of her nose. Most middle eastern women with a nose ring, and there are many, have it in the side of the nose .Nose rings in the septum are more of an African thing.
