The Prince Albert piercing is named after Prince Albert who was the husband of
Queen Victoria of England. He was reputeded to have had this piercing done prior
to his marriage to the queen around 1825, at that time Beau Brummel started the
craze for ultra tight mens trousers. Because the pants were so tight, the penis
needed to be held to one side or the other so as not to create an unsightly bulge.
To accomplish this some men had their penis pierced to allow it to be held by
a hook on the inside of the trousers, this piercing was called a "Dressing
Ring" at the time because tailors would ask if a gentleman dressed to the
left or the right and tailor the trousers accordingly, tailors to this day will
ask if you dress to the left or right.
