Through studying the history of ear gauging in different cultures and civilizations worldwide, it has been concluded that the practice is at least as old as recorded history, and likely much older. Mummies, statues, old drawings and prehistoric paintings have suggested that ear gauging has been used as a sign of maturity in both men and women, and also of status, particularly with men. It has also been used cosmetically, largely by women.

Ear gauging is a way of stretching the piercing of an earlobe to larger diameters. These diameters can be a lot more than the original piercing, and go up to over an inch and more. It is usually carried out as a fashion statement, and to show that the recipient is ‘cool’. It cannot be described as ‘modern’, because King Tut had his ears stretched, as did Otzi the Iceman – way back in 3300 BC!

Many men have had their ears stretched to indicate their virility and sexual capabilities, although this is not as much a reason today as it was many years ago. Today, men have their ears stretched to make a fashion statement, or to follow the example of their favourite pop group. Thousands of years ago, however, the main purpose is believed to be to make a statement, not of fashion, but of stature in the tribe.

The cultural changes after World War II were very vast. Radical transformation was made due to the after affects of the war. Men’s fashion of that age was called as age of jazz, because people got used to taking things on edge. Three-piece suit was the daily formal attire of upper class men.
