well I thought about getting pierced for months. Then speaking with a guy who ended up doing the pierce he sent me to this site to look at what type I should get done and I ended up going with the dydoe as I thought it was a very tastefull peirce. I made my appt. and waited then waited a week to do it. I went with a 14 guage curved barbell to start off with. As far as the pain is concerned all I can say is....HOLY CRAP THE WORST I HAVE EVER HAD OR THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE...total time with me getting ready and the piercer setting up to me recovering from my almost pass out was 30 min total. It didnt hurt after at all or bleed very much either. It has been a full two months and its starting not to hurt during sex and I had to change to a striaght bar bell with the shortest length and now everything seems good, well should be as I dont know if I have to increase the gauge yet but time will tell that. As far as how I feel about this pierce now is more of a WOW feeling. Just the thought still of being able to use almost any barbell I want to add something new to the bedroom is the coolest feeling. My girlfriend loves how it feels with or with out and when we looked on this site at all the different things I could use she even got more excited, to bad there is not to much in vibrating barbells as that concept made her go OMG for hours. It dont do anything for me as far as feeling goes but watching her react to it is far worth it. so in closeing if your bored in the bedroom and want more fun then you can handle and a over whelming feeling of pride entering the 1% group of men willing to do this type of thing to them selves........go for it...you and your mate will love it......p.s......get her to do something too so you both heal together...take it from me...alot smarter and she wont cheat...lol
