I stretched my ears, I just made it to my goal size about a month ago which is 00g (10mm) and I couldn't be happier! I feel so accomplished having taken to time needed to safely get to the proper size, I've been doing it for two years now and I'm still just as happy with it as when I decided to stretch my ears in the first place.
I would love to go bigger, but I already have so much jewelry in my current size, and just in case I ever want to take them out in the future my holes won't be really big and never go back to a somewhat normal size.

wow. thats crazy...i know i hear that you have to go really slowly to avoid blowouts. im glad you like it...its just not my thing. so if you did take them out you would go down to a smaller hole right?

I didn't have it done, but I've seen a lot of people who have.
I don't think it looks that bad when there's something in them, but the huge hole in your ear is rather unattractive when there's nothing there.

o i know what you mean! when theyre huge and you can just look through the hole! that is so gross! but when they have the plugs in it doesnt look that bad.

exactly - I know a guy at work who has to take out the plugs for the job, and it looks rather odd without them.
I always thought it was impressive when people stuck things through them though - like straws, pencils, and other common objects.

personally i dont like them because they seem rocker-ish and emo, but its all up to you, if your into that then go for it.
