BOYFRIEND GOT A SHOCK

I got my PA just over a month ago, having planned it (and put it off) for about a year.

I'd always been excited by the idea of genital piercing, I thought it looked great, and was really turned on when I saw it on other guys, but I didn't think that it was something I would do myself. Although I've got a couple of tattoos and facial piercings, piercing my dick seemed like going too far (funny to think how wrong I was). Maybe it was the fear of something going wrong, infection, serious damage etc.(although I'd had no bad experience with anything else) or maybe just the fact that it was my DICK! I'm sure I'm not the only guy who felt a bit apprehensive here.

It was only after stumbling across BME (great information, real inspiration!) that I crossed some kind of mental barrier that I'd had and realised how much I wanted it myself and that there was no reason why I shouldn't go ahead.

I looked at a couple of studios in Berlin, it was important that the piercer was likeable (I don't mean sexually, it was unimportant whether it was a man or a woman) it was something to do with trust. I'd felt the same way when having the previous mods.

The first place was OK, the second awful - I wouldn't have shook hands with that guy let alone have him pierce me. Third time lucky at Stahlwerk, and in a way I was relieved to have found a female piercer. I was worried about a bloke piercing me, it would of been embarrassing for me to get an erection with a straight guy. I don't know what the situation would've been like with a gay piercer, as I never found one. Maybe next time! (If anyone knows of someone in Berlin or London, let me know!) As it turned out, any worries about an unwanted stiff were ungrounded as, you guessed, I'd never seen my dick so shrivelled up and small.

The piercing itself was straightforward, just somewhat uncomfortable as the tube went in. The needle going through hurt intensely, but briefly (I found cartilage peíercing worse). I'd picked a closed ball ring, 12 gauge. I thought this would make cleaning and disinfecting easier, and besides it's what I thought looks best. I'm going to stretch it two more sizes when its ready.

Piercing does get you high. I floated out of the shop. On the underground train going home I couldn't shake the idea that other people in the train and on the street could see or must know that I had a ring in my cock. I still get that feeling, and I kinda like it.

At home I had to look right away, and look... and look. NOW I started to get an erection - and bleed badly. Panic! A couple of hand towells later the bleeding had subsided, so had my hard-on. Think of something else!

Now I started to bet a bit twitchy, as my boyfriend was due home in an hour or so, and I hadn't told him what I'd planned that day. But what the hell, I'd done it for me, not for him, but of course I wanted him to like it as much as I did. He was shocked, not at the PA, but at the fact that I'd just gone out and done it without saying anything, (although he had to admit that he wasn't suprised, I'd gone on about it for long enough). He was a bit doubtful at first, worried it would interfere with sex, hurt him/me, but he likes it now! We put off sex for 4 weeks. He wanted to earlier, but I wanted to be sure that it was healed. The wait was worth it.

Healing was no big problen. They gave me some kind of disinfectant solution (none of this soap stuff that I've read about) which stung like hell for the first week! But everything healed well, so I'm not complaining. It was all a bit tender to begin with, but now it feels fine.

I keep trying to tell my boyfriend what he's missing, but he's not keen to get anything pierced himself. We'll see. Maybe he'll be writing his story soon.

I've only told a couple of close friends (who of course want proof). Altough my work mates have got me stamped as an old ball anyway I haven't told them about this, not that I think it would make much difference, maybe just confirm what they thought in the first place (whatever that was). It's something I did very much for myself, and I like to keep it secret. Sometimes they catch me smiling and want to know what the joke is. Let them guess!
