At A Glance Author anonymous Contact anonymous@bme.anon When Three months ago Artist Ray Studio Beyond Taboo Tattoo Location Macon Georgia After a few, out of the ordinary piercings, the thought of a genital piercing crossed my mind. After browsing this very site I decided upon the apadravya, having seen the rarety of photos on this site I assumed it was less "popular" than the prince albert and looked better. So I went to the shop and discussed it with my friend Nina. She said she had never done one, seen one done, or even new how to go about doing it herself, but she new the piercer for the job, Ray. After rolling the idea around in the ol' noggin for a while I decided it would be done. I talked to Nina about talking to
Ray one day and she said that she would call him and chances were that he could come to the shop and do it right then. Well after calling him she informed me that his van was having problems and he was busy fixing it. So I made an appointment with him a few days later. On the day of the appointment I go in all pumped up, to find out there had been a mix up, Ray thought he was just doing a PA, this uses a large CBR something that they had plenty of, whereas the apadravya involves a 1 5/8" 12ga barbell (in case of swelling) we decided on 12ga because the 10ga needles are slightly more dull and/or prone to barb, and I would stretch later, and they didn't carry anything that long regularly. So the jewelry had to be ordered.
Finally, the jewelry comes in and the stage is set. I get there and am told that Ray left instructions for them (Jessica the shop book keeper or Nina the other piercer) to call him when I arrived. As I entered the door Jess dialed, as she and the rest of the staff working that day were also excited for my torture. Ray got there quick, ten minutes tops, and was set up just as fast. I had planned on some of my friends being there for moral support, but they weren't there and I didn't feel like waiting around and letting the terror set in. So I decided to go ahead with the festivities. I had already agreed that Nina should be in the room so she could witness the procedure. Her being a close friend and someone who regularly gropes my rear quarters, she was a relieving sight. Ray and I had already gone over the procedure in conversation. Quickness, clamp and stick was about it. This being the most intense pain a piercing could involve (I have been told that an ampalang is the sam e degree of pain just lasts longer because of vein dodging) I wanted it to go quickly to say the least. I walked into the piercing area and was greeted with a quick witted Ray saying,"When in doubt, whip it out!" The comedy in this calmed the slight nervousness I had. Nina held my hand, though I really did not feel like I needed it. Ray marked the already shriveling wanker for the poke. He put the clamp on my teeny weeny and I gave him the go ahead. And I shit you not, it hurts. But honestly, I don't enjoy pain or anything, but it was good stuff (I'll explain that in a second). The needle went through from bottom to top. I didn't flinch. Nina said he's about to put the jewelry in. I said,"That's always the worst part." He finished I said,"Fuck." And that was it. No blood, no fainting, no throwing up, no yelling, then came the endorphine and adrinaline. That was the greatest high ever. I could not speak without tremors all over my body. Ray was very pleased by his work and m y ease with the process and rightfully so, it was perfect, centered to an absolute "T". Then came the wrapping of the turtleheaded lump that looked like it was trying to hybernate for the winter. Nina gave me some sea salt and I set around for a little while and people walked by turning white and telling me how bad ass that is. I left it wrapped the first night after reading about how bad the bleeding is the first night. And that is true the rubber glove it was wrapped in was full of blood. But luckily no morning wood. I was petrified at the thought of the first piss. A blood clotted 12ga bar through a mans urethra is bound to cause many urination issues. Therefore, I opted for the shower piss. And let me tell you, that had to be the greatest piss I will ever take in my entire life. For those thinking of this piercing, before peeing I soaked it in almost unbareable hot salt water and was standing in a steamy shower, but it was great. After that I wrapped it back up just with some toilet paper. I would suggest boxer briefs until the bleeding st ops. On the whole, mine didn't bleed half as bad as the other people on this site made it sound. The length of time was the same, it bled for about 5 days but as far as soreness, it was nothing. My cartilage piercings were alot more sore. But going into the shop and talking about it made me want to try it out so bad. So about two and a half weeks later it wasn't sore and wasn't bleeding so I tried a little "manual stimulation". Do not do this!!! It feels pretty damn good and doesn't hurt as long as you go easy but right at the point of ejaculation I look down at the blood beginning to flow like a busted water hose. I calmed myself alittle bit and cleaned the stuff up. That was stupid idea number one. Number two came at the two month marker. I decided to try it out on an unsuspecting girl. Not to comfortable. Still having a longer bar, shorter than the original, but too long nontheless, it was pulling on the piercing making it extremely uncomfortable. So in the heat on the m oment I decide to take it out for a few minutes, here in lies stupid i dea number three. Sex was fine, the girl was a little upset, she said what she got of the piercing was incredible. After though, putting that barbell back into my penis was the most ungodly pain ever. Having said that the initial piercing didn't even make me flinch, the fact that trying to get that jewelry back in made my eyes water and my hands shake from pain should hold great meaning and tear you away from the thought of reinacting such a stupid, stupid idea. But since then there haven't been many problems aside from the occasional discomfort from erections pressing the top ball into the piercing, but it is little more than irritating.
Overall I would suggest it. It has great badass appeal. And women even though they may say at first that it is threatening and kind of scary to think about, once you explain the anotomical benefits as far as where it will "ride" they are very intrigued to say the least.
