So what are you saying? We should all specialize in cosmetic earlobe surgery so we can make millions in about 15 years? [Coffee]
Hey man. You never know...he's probably a really nice guy!
Had a buddy who was always a little off He got the holes in his ears up to 2 inches. He took out the hoops and didn't like his hanging flapping ear lobes so he took a pair of scissors and cut off the bottom of his ears. Clipped something major in one of his ears and had to go to the VA to get it stitched up.
Retards huh? True class. Btw I don't have my ears gauged, never have, never will. Not even an earring. Just hate that word. Dip shit.
i had my ears guaged (just haaaad to be a rebel) they were 5/8" it took about 15 years but there basicly healed now our bodies are amazing
Stop the fighting. His words may be offensive to some, but that's why we get the ability to go check other threads. Let's just move along if you find it offensive.
I had mine at 1/2", you can barely tell. Mine did not take 15 years though, prob 1-2 months.
So would it be cool then if they wore a live 12 shotgun shell in the hole?? [LOL] I don't get it either.
I am only replying to this thread because of my respect for both of you.
I have worked in the human services field for the last 10 years, working primarily with people who are diagnosed with developmental and intellectual disabilities. I see this everyday. "Retard" is in the dictionary with many definitions. Doctors still to this day use the word in identifying a diagnosis. MR stands for mental retardation; however, over the last 50 years people have used it so much in a negative context that is insulting to those who are diagnosed with an intellectual or developmental disability.
It has become a part of our language to call someone "retard" to describe their stupidity even if not directed to someone that is diagnosed as such. Many people do not realize how negative it is to use the word and those that work with or close to someone that is developmentally or intellectually disabled often time finds that it is so offensive they just become angered and do not make a "healthy" redirection or explain to the person using it as they might not understand how negative it is.
I believe using the word "retardation" such as "I had to retard my timing on my truck." is still okay.
There are also many people who are not diagnosed with an intellectual or developmental disability that are stupid, just called them dumb ass.

And what if you're tied up and forced to let someone have sex with you ear.... you're going to regret that you never did it.
Sorry, that was the best I could come up with and still join the conversation.
I suggest growing up.
Original poster. Let's all start threads making fun of people who look differently than we do. We could go on forever!
I have my ears gauged, im a nice guy, great job, best father i can be. I dont think it makes me any less of a man than you right? I dont think my I.Q. Has dropped but then again i own guns so some might think im crazy lol.
The number of words that have become prohibited by the political-correct police since I was a child leads me to believe that within another hundred years, there will be precious few words that English speaking humans can use without offending someone.
Back on topic.... What do you guys think about the gauged ears on Amber Acia?

I'm waiting for the "lip gauging" to catch on here with America's youth.

Well my thread has certainly taken a few turns. I should have put a smiley or something to convey my mixed emotion in my original thread, too late now.
My comment was mostly in jest but also in wonderment at why any American would do that. To the best of my knowledge it isn't part of our history and there isn't any rite of passage or ritual associated with it or maybe I'm just that out of touch.
I've seen on TV and in magazines African tribes and their body modifications and my understanding is that it is their symbolism, their rite of passage, their ritual or something else. If I was in Africa I wouldn't care one bit what they did nor would I comment on it the manner I used here because it is natural to their particular culture and history.
I've have dealt with people who have these mods and I bear no animosity towards them, for the most part they're just like me, a learning human. Anyway, on with the show.
I think it's because tattoos were made so mainstream by their parents. I mean it used to be if you wanted to freak your parents out you would go get a tattoo. Now, since most of these kids have parents with tattos, they are reaching out in different ways to piss their parents off.

I think tats are more symbolic or a remembrance, like the guys I see with military service tats, especially the ones where there is a cool story behind it.
See, I didn't think of that reason, dammit I just can't win. Pretty is good though and you like them and that is what counts in the end. [Beer] Perhaps it is the same with the gentleman i saw this afternoon, except I don't know anyone who can see their ear lobes.[Muaha] Outside of a mirror anyway, maybe he's really vain. [Swim]
Anytime someone talks about gauging, I bring up my 73 year old dad. Hey you want to be cool like him, do it. I would love to invest in a tattoo removal and earlobe shrinking business. If you got in early you could have franchises all over. Like tanning salons.
It appears to me that some people are oversensitive to once-common terminology. I find the over-sensitivity to be a form of political correctness (speechwise). I personally despise political correctness in any form.
