Hi everyone, i got piercings today.
I got both of my ears done and my left nipple.
I will post pictures in a couple of days :P
Does anyone else have any piercings?
DaPs.
Have had both ears pierced since I started growing my hair over six years ago.. Feel naked when I don't wear earrings now! I thought about the nipple piercing but I heard its really painful??
Had both done and I didn't find it that painful. It's a bit of a palaver keeping them antiseptically clean though as they take a long time to heal fully (if I remember right it was at least a couple of months). If you can be bothered with that then it's worth it as they offer a range of interesting possibilities ;-)
Yes, me too! I took my earrings out for a short period of time a while ago, and hated every minute of it. It just seemed so wrong, so not me...
I just realized that I've had earring(s) for 20 years now. Got my first one when I was 14. Now got one in each ear which suits me just fine!
You really went all out.
I use to have my ears pierced but haven't worn earrings in years.
Congrats on your piercings! 10 years ago I got my tongue pierced and followed that up with a Prince Albert. I took the tongue bar out back in 2000 as I bit down on it a couple times while chewing which resulted in some cracked teeth...not fun. Still got the PA although I hardly ever wear anything these days...just when I'm in the mood. The hole never closed up completely so I'll always be able to slip jewelry in whenever I want.
How much did your Prince Albert hurt? Did it take a long time to heal? Your a brave man!
I got the standard PA and not the inverted style. The piercing itself wasn't too bad. It was the first urination afterwards that just about killed me. That pain was at least ten times as worse. It took about 8 weeks to completely heal but the discomfort only lasted the first couple weeks at the most.
Did it lesson sexual sensation?
Nope, increased it...which is why I got it done in the first place.
Wow, sounds pretty cool. If i had it i would probably have it going straight through the gland vertically, rather than the prince albert way.
I considered the Apadravya piercing but my girlfriend at the time convinced me to go with the PA. I was up for either one but ultimately went with the PA.

I have my ears pierced but I got bored of them and don't wear them anymore. I might start wearing them again once summer comes though.

PS On a scale of 1-10, how much did the nipple hurt?
Unlike Big L, who posted below, my nipple pierce was FIERCELY painful. After the hurt finally subsided I was high on endorphins for a week- no, more. It was quite an experience.
Big L is the first one I've heard of for whom a nipple pierce was not a big deal.

It stung alot after but it was ok!
I did have one VERY awkward shower though :D
Congrats! I personally dislike earrings and piercings. I like tattoos though. By the way, Was it painful having your nipple pierced?
It wasn't bad when it went in, but afterwards it stung alot!
I have my eyebrow done, plan on getting my ear done and getting a guage.
A few tatoo's too are in the works.
Have had my ears pierced for about 15 yrs now and both nipples for about 5 years. In the last year I have been moving to larger guage rings in the nipples - up to a 6 guage and planning to stay there - They were not too painful to get and the pain just lasted a short time - but I must say they have made my nips much more sensitive and erotic when touched. Thinking about having a second ear piercing but not sure about that.

Right on! Good move on the earrings. Nice to see more guys with earrings. Looks great with any hair, especially with long hair. Long time earring wearer here - since I was about 14 (and now am 34, so, OMG, 20 years... makes me feel old!). For the last 10 years, I've had one (and sometimes two) earrings in each ear.
I currently have an earring in each ear (sterling silver, they were actually meant to be small nose rings, the little round rings work well as earrings). These are small enough that I can get away with wearing them anywhere - formal or informal occasions. Haven't had them out in over 18 months.
Hey, we got our ears pierced around the same time. My mom drove me to get my ear pierced when I was a 14 year old Freshman...and now I'm 34 like you. Wow, was that really 20 years ago? Trip out. I had a thin silver hoop in mine and lost it in the ocean sometime in the early 90's while surfing. For some reason I never got around to replacing it. Not even sure if I could put one in now since it's been years...hole has probably closed up.
Right on! Only with me, my mother was not supportive of my choice to get an earring, so I had to get it done on my own. Yeah, 20 years... that is kind of trippy... And hey, it's never too late to get your ear(s) pierced again!
Cheers,
Peter
I just recently had my ears pierced as well. I have 2 holes in each ear.
