Welcome to Gaia! ::

I dont think I would like such a big piece of metal in there, personally.

Yeah, it's kind of big. I wasn't told it was going to be an 8 gague, so when the needle went through, I was like eek Nonetheless, I love it.

He measured me for my jewelry before he pierced me, and apparenlty I'm best suited for an 8 gauge? I don't mind though, I feel badass because my largest piercing is my VCH. It looks good at that size though.

Oh! Speaking of triangles: I asked him before he piered me if I had the anatomy for a triangle. He said that I could do it, but it wouldn't be comfortable. Apparently I'd constantly be shifting it around and would look like a guy shifting his bits in his pants. At least I have my VCH.

So I asked my piercer today why he pierced me at an 8gauge, and he had this to say:

"ok, like i mentioned when you got the piercing, smaller sizes pinch. anything smaller than say a 10g is uncomfortable. most people who have ridiculously small genital piercings do not notice as much due to the nickel causing nerve damage in the area. when when perform genital piercings we try and set the size as large as the anatomy can handle, so as not to cause pinching. for example, vch: 10g +, p.a.: 8g+, so on and so forth."

^was from a Yahoo! IM conversation earlier today

And... eek at the 0gauge triangle. That's intense. Then again, I'll probably end up stretching mine a couple sizes larger...

^That's the reason I don't want any more genital piercings... at least right now.

That would be badass. Do it!

The more I think about genital piercings, the more I want to do a couple of outer labia ladders.
