Well this occurred a while ago and I meant to post it here soon after I got it done, but you know, I am (was) a lazy So-Cal stoner, so I lamed out on it until now.
At A Glance Author sandorfintor Contact sandorfintor@bme.anon When Five years ago Artist don't remember the name Studio Puncture Location Upland, CA So in 2001 or 2002 I got the itch to get a PA, since I heard much about its potential benefits to one's sexual life and ability to intensify the stimulation of vaginas (or wherever else you might prefer to stick your member, haha).
And of course I liked the actual look of it too, quite a bit.
Another reason for going for a genital piercing was that I don't really have any publicly visible body modifications, due to strict/old school parents who would curse me out and make life miserable for me if they saw me with stretched ears or neck tattoos... This kind of sucks a lot, I'm too afraid to take the gamble and potentially burn the bridge with my parents over my 'unprofessional' appearance.
My girlfriend at the time was into piercings a lot and she liked the idea of me getting it done A LOT, in fact she was the main inspiration behind it. We both had our nipples pierced already, which has already made our erotic play/sexual life much better as it is, but she had her clit hood done already and it was a no brainer for me to get a PA.
I got it as a surprise though, and kind of in the spurt of the moment. I called the piercing shop of my choice at the time, namely Puncture in Upland (where I got my nipples pierced twice in the past) and asked if I needed an appointment if I wanted to get a PA. They said not necessarily, but they were about to close in an hour that night, so it was too late. so I asked if I can go in the next day and they said it was cool. I went to bed pretty excited about the next day, although I had to go to work in the early afternoon, so that complicated matters.
I went to the shop shortly after they opened (noon) and told the counter attendant what I had in mind. I wanted a relatively larger gauge, I much prefer larger gauge piercings on any part of the body than small ones. So I was hoping to get it pierced at least at 10GA, hopefully larger. They said it should be OK. After a short chat about the obvious specifics of the procedure and information about the required aftercare the piercer dude came out and asked If I was ready. I was ready, but of course pretty nervous. More so than any piercing, I bet genital piercings make people pretty damn nervous, and rightfully so. There is quite the sense of humiliation that goes with it. At least for me it was kind of hard, since I'm not a big fan of being nude in public, personally.
They didn't have a huge selection of appropriate jewelry, I would have preferred a circular barbell, but they only had captive bead rings at the right gauge/diameter. Oh well, I went for one with a black niobium ball. Looked cool. The plan was to pierce it at 8GA and stretch it up to 6GA immediately. Moving right along...
Here's the sketchy part... I am not circumsized so I told the piercer to please try to pierce it in a way slightly off to the side to avoid piercing the bottom part of the foreskin that connects to the front tip of the bottom of the penis. I don't have the specific terminology, but if you know an uncircumsized man's anatomy, you know what I'm talking about, there is a bridge of skin there that connects the 'mobile' foreskin tissue to the shaft.
So this guy apparently HAVE NOT pierced an uncircumsized penis before mine...
Obviously there are a LOT of uncircumsized males out there, so this tells me the guy was relatively inexperienced with genital piercings. But he said it was okay, no problem, he will pierce it just as I asked him. My penis was pulled out now for a few minutes and sure as hell it shrivelled up quite a bit due to the fear of getting impaled very shortly.
This is the uncomfortable part that guys must face when getting their dicks pierced! If you thought cold water makes your wiener shrink, wait until the piercing needle approachs it - it will surely try to pull a disappearing act, haha!
The moment of the piercing finally arrived. I looked away of course, I was laying on my back. he said take a deep breath 1-2-3, ...by the time he got to 3 he already showed the needle through my traumatized wienie. It wasn't all that painful thankfully, it really is a relatively thin skin tissue and not too tough, so the needle slipped right through into the receiving tube -which I believe was inserted into my urethra.
Then he slipped in the stretching tool and the 6GA ring slipped in very smoothly, without any struggle. Of course there was a relatively significant amount of bleeding, so I could't see the piercing clearly, but it was in there, that was for pretty damn sure. Now the guy had to insert the ball into the captive bead ring, which was another few uncomfortable minutes laying in front of a dude tampering with my penis. Ehh...
When he finally inserted the bead, he taped a plastic ziplock bag around my penis, so I wouldn't bleed all over my pants on the way home ...err, WORK!
I was pretty proud of myself that i got it done, I was excstatic but also lightheaded from the intensity of the experience. I smoked a bowl in my car and headed to WORK. Yes work.
Needless to say, having a plastic bag taped to your recently pierced penis is not a very comfortable situation, haha! Especially not that it was gradually filling up with blood!!!
At work I pretended that I twisted my ankle playing basketball, so I was able to pretend that i was crippled and in pain pretty affectively! Usually I worked customer service and had to walk around all day during my shift, but they let me sit down on a stool and just ring up people sitting on my ass. That workday was EPIC!
Eventually I stumbled into the bathroom to analyze my plastic bag of blood, perforated & swollen flesh and metal. It was pretty traumatic to see my penis covered in blood...
Yet the worst part was when I noticed that the idiotic piercer actually pierced through the part of the skin I asked him to avoid!!! I was in disbelief. He did pierce it slightly off to the right, but not enough to avoid the bottom foreskin part entirely!!! He pierced through a very thin bit of skin, just near the edge of the mobile part of the foreskin.
It's nearly impossible to explain the specific looks of it, I meant to take a photo of it back then a submit it to BME, but I didn't have a digital camera back then...
I also didn't go back to the shop to complain, maybe i should have. I wanted to avoid another uncomfortable situation. I let it heal as it was, and it WAS awkward! A small pinch of my foreskin pinned through with the piercing, sort of pulling and stretching it to the right slightly. If you're uncircumsized, maybe you can imagine it...
So I had mixed feelings... the healing took a few weeks for sure, the main nagging problem was the pretty intesnse stinging pain while urinating. Rough!!!
Not being able to have sex with my girlfriend for 3 weeks was also pretty trying!
She was getting SUPER antsy to try it out, and I was too surely.
We tried to have sex CAREFULLY a few times before it was completely pain free, but it was rough, so it ended up being over a month of not being able to have sex before it fully healed.
But boy oh boy, the first time I masturbated and came after getting the piercing was probably the most intense orgasm ever! After i tested it myself we were finally ready to put it to use, and it worked out awesome! She had the best orgasms ever, and attaining them much sooner than in the past!!! We were bot loving it.
She continued giving me AMAZING head and it was awesome to play around with her tongue piercig against my sizable PA ring. The sound of metal to metal during sex is a huge turn on for me. Getting head from someone with a pierced tongue is awesome as it is, but if you have a pierced dick to top it off, let me tell you - it's heavenly.
Not long after it was all healed i made the ballsy decision to fix the piercing myself and using a sterilized Xacto knife I removed the little skin flap that made the piercing look retarded. We're talking about a 1/8th of an inch wide and 1/2 inch long segment of my foreskin that I yanked off. Basically giving myself a partial micro-self-circumcision. Wild!
It didn't hurt or bleed too bad and healed within a week.
Now I was completely happy!!!
Eventually I switched to a 4GA circular barbell -this piercing stretches easily and naturally- so going to 4 gauge was seamless and effortless. I'm extremely happy with this piercing to this day, I take it out occasionally to let the surrounding skin tissue rest, since a 4 GA stainless steel ring is pretty damn heavy. I could easily stretch it to 2GA but that would be totally oversized for my not exactly oversized penis, haha.
By the way, being uncircumsized, this piercing worked out wonderfully, as the foreskin simply rolls over the ring and keeps it protected all the time from being knocked around too much, so I rarely have any problems/irritation with it - unlike people who are circumsized and have PAs. So I highly recommend it as the perfect genital piercing for uncircumsized men! It most definitely improved my sex life and gave my partners much EXTRA joy, I'm pretty certain about that.
(I just wish my current girlfriend was more into piercings -or at all-, she even refuses to give head with worries that my PA ring might damage her teeth... ahh, lame excuse! Sux!!!
I'm still keeping it FOREVER!)
