It is commonly believed that these piercings, and all genital piercings, provide added sexual stimulation to the bearer. The amount of that stimulation is dependent on many factors, including placement, jewelry and the individual. There are urban legends about hood piercings (which are often confused with clitoris piercings) either causing uncontrolled sexual stimulation or even orgasm, or where the constant stimulation leads to the desensitization of the clitoris and the difficulty or inability of the bearer to orgasm. There are no known cases of either of these things occurring. Urban Legend is also the name of a 1998 movie. ...
