My cousin has her's about that size and it looks grosse most of the time for some reason. Even with gauges in, it's still misshapen. If you do it, don't go more than a 0 (my friends have 0's and that's where it stops looking normal and starts looking grosse)

huh, lucky I guess. I know about 6 kids with 00's or past and they just look warped. Maybe it's cause I'm not a big fan of gauged ears or what, but ya.

5/8ths or 3/4in. they are called "gauges" or gauging. its called stretching and plugs or like what size are your lobes? not how long have u been gauging or what size are ur gauges?

sorry gauge isnt a verb, ask most people who have larger lobes, most of them hate it too

i wouldnt call it a freak show, its a form of personal expression, like a tat, or your hairstyle. it goes along with a culture in a way i guess. its not emo tho, emo isnt a look, it is a state of mind.

emo is a look. If I kid is wearing all black with a big emo stain and emo hair he is emo. Could be happy as fuck inside but he looks emo

i think a small gauged hole is cute on guys.
But not massive, i met a kid at a show who had a lighter and rolled up band flyers in his ear.. kinda gross looking.

i think its so discusting when ppl have "stretched lobes" for one, it looks retarded and two, i dont see how it could be comfortable..and i think it is even worse when girls do it..

its like 95% of you kids on this website are so fucking stupid and ignorant. you automatically stereotype someone as emo because of tattoos, piercings, their haricut and if they wear black or not. its people like you that piss me off.

If you stretch slowly enough your lobes won't get blowout and get warped looking. It's when uninformed or young kids go out and do it that the problems arise. I like the smaller sizes as long as the plug is filled instead of a tube where you can see through it. An inch and a half starts to look too wierd to me though, but I love the look of smaller ones.

i stretch because i like, i like how it looks and i think it completes me..
my ears are very healthy, and thick to this day. it has taken me 3 years to get this large and im very glad i did it slowly. no blowouts or thinning here. and i didnt cheat by skipping sizes or cutting my lobes

i like yours, nothing to flashy or gross...personally i wouldnt do it bc it would so not be accepted at my job. lots of old fashion conservative fucks who are quite judgmental. though if its your thing then do it who cares ya know.
but what i want to know if it hurts
