Because I see nothing wrong with it...never have either. I have both ears pierced, and top left ear as well (though I dont wear that hoop up top often).

But the debate is that so many think its so 90's ish and out of date. Whgat do you think? Who else here has their ears pierced?

I got mine done one day when I felt like doing something new, no specific reason really.
I don't really think of earrings as being out of date, I know lots of guys that have earrings.

but I got mine pierced up high on the lobe, so that they don't really hang down at all, they kind just stop where my ear stops.

Some time you just need to do something out of the norm. And i guess thats what i did! i dont really think its gay, nor do i care what others think. Do what you think looks best on you dude.

I like wearing a stud over a ring, i find rings to get caught on things easier

You just posted in the PS3 thread that you think any guy that buys a Wii needs to question his sexuality, then you create a thread about how you see nothing 90's or gay about a guy with pierced ears?

Got my left ear pierced when I was like 19 (It was still a cool thing in the late 90s). I dont wear it anymore partly cuz it got boring, and partly cuz it doesn't look good meeting a client in a suit and an earring. :dunno:

You asked for it, so I'll say it:

Gay.

Earings usually go with gangsta wannabes or pretty boys.

Wouldn't get them myself, don't care if others have them though.

I used to have both ear lobes pierced and the top of my left ear pierced, this was back when I was 16. I took them all out once I entered the business world. It was strongly suggested to me by a Broker in the business that I remove them.

:rofl: I like this thread. I had both earlobes done and a hoop higher up on my left ear, believe it or not, based totaly on what girls said i should do/looked good. It was cool for me in high school but i am not pretty enough for that shit and not nearly emo enough to stretch them.

I have two on my left lobe and one on my right lobe. Use to have one on my top right cartilage but got an infection and ended up having to take it out.

I don't see anything wrong with them, mine are barely visible. I just like them.


Anybody know where is the best place to get ring style earrings??

dinglenuts
12-20-2006, 06:25 PM
getting both mine done on the 27th:thumbsup: and i'm already married, so if people think its gay, its not like i'd be getting any other girls anyway! I do think simple, non flashy hoops look good, not a fan of sparkly crap though.

12-20-2006, 06:38 PM
i have both lobes pierced and i used to have the top of my left ear.. but the ring has been out so long it closed up. i also used to have my nipple pierced but i took that out cause it kept getting infected

i see nothing wrong with piercings as long u havent enlarged the holes retardedly (my gauges are 8 i think)? and no more then 1 in each lobe

The difference between the two is that you know what you're doing when you pierce your ear. If you're swinging the remote around that much, you don't have a clue what you're doing.

Also, people can see you with the earring...


Sorry, but I have to hate the player when the player is this wrong. It makes me feel sad for the game.

I have the top of mine done. Most people don't even notice unless I point it out. Took my mom about 45 min of talking to me before she noticed. Just one of those things that I did.

I have an 8 gauge half hoop in my left lobe, and a stud in the top of my left ear. Ive had them since I was in grade 11.

12-20-2006, 09:19 PM
I got an eyebrow ring...thats right im a hardcore:rolleyes:


Contemplating gettting studs put in my ears, I heard that they can pierce you at 0 gauge now??

How big of a scar do you think you would get from getting around 4-6 gauge and takin em out later down the road?

merel norman is the best place i find..

the gun (if u call it that) is the best one.. instead of shooting it through ur ear it just clamps it

piercing is free all u do is buy the earing

I had regular piercings for about 10 years. A few months ago I decided I wanted something different. Instead of stretching the lobes, I went and just had these punched out.

For me, the size is fine. It may or may not close on it's own naturally. I'm not concerned. I have a good paying job that will only get better, and the holes in my ears make no difference.

This picture is a fresh shot when I got it done. Pretty swollen lobes. Today I can easily slide a pen through the hole. What is in my ear in the picture is more a retainer while healing. I just wear simple black hollow tubes that don't protrude like the retainers did.

It was pretty painfull, and the crunch my right ear made from the scar tissue break was loud. But like all pain...Mind over matter!!!

0 gauge? damn you wont be able to put anything through that.

The only bad thing about piercing is that you have to leave your earings in there for 6 months straight so it doesnt close up. yes thats right, even have to sleep with them on.

I like how you have decided what was smart for me to do.:thumbsup:

In all reality, as most of you know, it wasn't a hole punch. It was a surgical needle the same size as the metal tube in the picture. It wasn't like there were two chunks of skin in the needle upon puncture. I already had piercing holes, so the needle really only stretched the hole to this size. It's not like it looks like I'm carrying dinner plates in my head.

The piercer mentioned that within time these holes should still be able to close. A good friend of mine had the same size and his closed up.

Like I said, I'm not concerned. If and when I decide that this is no longer for me, I will see if they close. If not, there is a surgical procedure to stitch em shut.

To each their own!

I peirced both my ears back in grade 9 when it was cool. Its probably been 10 years since I wore an earing.

I think they look retarded on guys now, unless your a pirate (or an ass pirate) :dunno:

How did wearing the earring on the right ear ever become labeled gay? Or is that just a figment of my imagination? :dunno:

I personally don't like them, IMO.
