did it hurt

nope.... i was told that cartilage hurts alot more than lobes... well i guess it could depending on the person but if you want to know what it's like, take two fingers and just pinch your ear real hard and let go.. the piercing itself only takes a split second.....

The piercing is not the sore part of the equation, it is in the healing process that it can hurt like a bugger. The problem with cart piercings is that the stud pokes a hole in the skin and cart, and fills both. When soft tissue is perforated, it expands so there is room for the skin to grow thru. With cartilege, it does not expand, so there is no room to pass the skin thru. If you move down one size to smaller posts, it will heal alot better, and with less pain.

yep but imma leave it in for a week or two before i change to a smaller post.... people say not to change but a friend of mine went to a smaller post after a couple weeks and her's heeled in about 3 weeks afterwords..

I got my eyebrow pierced and it wasn't that bad. I was told it actually hurts less than getting your earlobes pierced by the woman who did mine. I have a few male friends who have the cartelidge pierced, its really not a huge deal. People won't really notice unless you are wearing really flashy ear-rings.

yeah im not really concerned w/ what others think of it.... around these parts not many guys wear them.. i have seen one or two (one of which was extremely gay) on guys.... i'm going to be getting another hole in each lobe here in a couple of months....

I know at least 5 guys with there cartelidge. acctually almost more than women.

There are so many guys out there with so many piercings that i'm not really worried about getting mine done again. I've got this friend thats really kinda guy, ya know, mans man. He has four in one ear one or two in the other, and his lip peirced. Anouther friend, that if he knew about me would probably die, has his nipples pierced.
I'm just not carring anymore and I think we should all do the same.

I find many guys have way more piercings than women.

I have 3 male friends with nipple piercings, and 2 who want to get them but are too scared of the pain. I know at least 5 or 6 guys who have ear-piercings. I actually want to get one (just my left ear). Then again, I am into the heavy metal and rave scenes, so basically anything goes.
