Before this, I had only gotten my tongue pierced, that was in February, and my navel, which I'd like to say was in March or April but I can't be too sure. Both were done by Paul, so I made sure he'd do this one, as he's the most experienced piercer at the studio. I had been interested in getting a genital piercing for quite a while, shortly after I got my navel pierced. At first, I planned on getting a prince albert, but I thought they looked silly. Then I saw the reverse prince albert, and I knew that was the one I wanted to get. It was the best looking piercing, in my opinion.
At A Glance Author Bryan Towers Contact Bryan Towers@bme.anon When A week ago Artist Paul Studio Needlewürks Location Saratoga Springs, New York Before I got it, last week, I had been planning on getting it since the middle of May, but things just didn't work out until last week. For example, Paul wasn't there, or I had no way of getting to the studio, or I got a new girlfriend when I wasn't expecting it. I came in last week on Wednesday, and I asked when Paul would be there to pierce me, as I had told him I planned on getting this as soon as my girlfriend left for New York city for a month or so.
So when I finally went in to get it done, on a humid Friday afternoon, it was about 4:30. The studio is pretty busy, but it just seemed like a bunch of kids hanging out. There was just one girl ahead of me. I don't know what she got, but it didn't take too long.
After she's done, I tell Paul that I'm finally ready for my reverse P.A. So he goes and gets everything set up while I pay and read over and sign the waiver that I've read over a few times before, just to kill a few minutes.
Paul tells me to come on in and make myself comfortable, and one of the apprentices asks if I mind if he watches. I told him I didn't care. He makes small talk to try to ease my mind a bit, like why I chose a reverse P.A. over a normal P.A., a few other things. Then it's time. He tells me to drop my pants and lay back, and I do what I'm told.
Then it's time.
He shows me the accepting tube, which is a little bit smaller than my pinky, and I ask if that's really going in my dick. He laughs and says yes. Just him attempting to insert the accepting tube was a lot of pain. He stops and tells me my urethra is too small, but he'll still do it, just by a different method. He takes the 10g piercing needle, and tells me to inhale through my nose, and exhale out of my mouth, and I do it. I feel the needle entering my urethra, which is a little uncomfortable. I'm still inhaling through my nose, exhaling through my mouth, when I experience the most pain I've ever experienced in my life. I lose my breath, and I almost sit up and I yell "Holy shit!" and I fall back down and close my eyes, and then the needle is all the way through. He corks the needle, and then it's time to put my 10g captive bead ring in. This wasn't too painful, just a little uncomfortable. I guess I was bleeding a lot after that, because Paul spent about 10-15 minutes afterwards just cleaning me up. Paul tells the apprentice to get a condom from behind the counter, and he comes back with one, and then Paul asks me to hold myself up as he puts it on me so I don't bleed all over myself.
After we're done, Paul and I talk for a minute, he tells me that the first time I have sex with this in, it will blow my mind, basically. He also gives me a free can of H2Ocean, which was working well, but I just ran out of it, so I'm going back tomorrow to get another can.
After the piercing, the pain isn't too bad. I thought it'd be a lot more painful to walk around, but it really isn't that bad. When I got home, the condom he put on me was about 1/6 full of blood. I stopped bleeding the morning after, but I still occasionally bleed when I get a case of morning wood. The first few times urinating were pretty painful, but it didn't hurt after the next day was over. I do, however have to sit down to urinate now, but I suppose it's going to be worth it when this is all healed up.
All in all, it was a great experience. Clean studio, I trust my piercer, and besides the initial piercing, there has been minimal pain. I couldn't say how well it performs during sex quite yet, but I'm sure it's going to be pretty fucking awesome.
