text: I have stretched earlobes.  More than ten years ago, when it was far from being "in fashion", countless people told me that I'd regret it.  Well, a hell of a lot of time has passed and I love my ears more than I did when I started.\n\nAs for you wanting to know what the "point" is, for myself it has been purely ornamental.  Honestly, I would not look or feel like myself if I looked any way other than the way that I do.\n\nYour question has an antagonistic element to it, as in maybe you think poorly about people who choose to do this.  Try to be less judgmental.  There may be things about you that others would look at and question in a similar manner.
