At one point a few months ago,I'd used bondage tape to increase my size.I got to wondering today when did people started doing that-using various tapes to go up.Back in the 90s,when I did this the first time,it wasn't something I'd ever heard of,& this time around,I had to google it,because I'd see tape on different sites,or hear about it,& I'd wondered how in the world one would possibly use tape to stretch their ears (when I found out,it was like,duh!Was so obvious & simple,yet I would have never figured it out).Back then,people just bought every size plug,which got expensive,plus the plugs were more expensive on top of everything.And there were no kits w/every size taper for $10-you were lucky if you ever found a taper,& usually places would have maybe one in a 0g,which you can't really use unless you're close to a 0g(Kind of interesting too that you also never heard the term 'blowout' back then-I had to google that too.No one really ever go blowouts because like I said,no taper kits,no taping & no one could afford to stretch too fast).So when did taping really start-I'm sure someone had thought of it back then,but I didn't know of one single person who had done it or thought to do it-& I knew alot of people w/stretched ears.
