After toenails, how about ears?

I’ve been lucky with ears - small and neat, flat to me head but my lobes seem to have lost weight (sadly unlike the rest of me?).

I find I need to use the plastic backers rather than butterflies with earrings otherwise studs sag!

I don't feel dressed without earrings and have quite a collection of them. If family can't think of anything else to give me, they buy me earrings! Some in better taste than others!
I bought a pack of 'butterflies' from Ebay but the hole in every one of them is too small for the wires on all my earrings. Luckily they were cheap. M&S used to sell these, but I haven't seen them recently.

PS I don't think my ears have either grown or shrunk since my sister pierced them for me in 1967, during a quiet time in A&E when she was a junior doctor.

My ears are sadly neglected as they are one part of my body that isn’t crumbling with age so I don’t pay them much attention!
Unless I count tinnitus which a I’ve had in my left ear for many years.

Mine haven't grown yet, but my blokes ears and nose have. He's thinning on top and looks like a two handled jug when he's just back from the barbers.

Just looked at them now. I appear to have been lucky, no sagging wrinkly lobes---that's a bonus I must say I never bother with how the ears look, normally.
I wish the face was as smooth as the ear-lobes. They can still hear a pin drop which is the main thing.

Ears and noses carry on growing, don't they? At least I think they do. I'm lucky that mine are quite small, but my nose appears to be wider than it was (to keep up with my plump face)

I can't see them, must be the lockdown hair.
They certainly can't hear any better.

Can't say I've noticed.

My ears look exactly the same as they always did, they just don't function as well as they always did.

No, they’re just the same

Hate that I can no longer insert earrings due to arthritic fingers. Have been wearing them every day for the last 50 yrs

I have lovely small ears, probably my best feature!

My lobes each have a crease on them. I read once it’s called ‘Frank’s sign’ after a doctor. (Google and be scared). Julius Caesar had them - they are on statues. Bilateral, as mine are.
Oh ‘eck ...

I always look at people´s ears. It seemed to me, as a child, that old people´s ears were huge. Read somewhere that ears keep on growing. Also, there is this business of a wrinkled area just in front of the ears, which to me is a definite sign of aging. I keep applying cream in the hope of preventing this. Can anyone say that it´s worked?

My ears are just fine, lobes remain small and neat because I never had them pierced or wore earrings.

My earlobe are stretched from wearing cheap, heavy earrings when I was too young to realise that everything has a consequence.

The pierced holes in my ears appear to have closed up. Pity because I've got loads of really lovely ear rings.

Just looked at my ears in the mirror.

No idea if they are bigger, smaller or the same as usual, as I don’t really examine them.

Mine have two piercings in each ear, always wear two sleepers of different sizes.

Don’t think having your ears pierced should make such a difference harrigran unless you wear really heavy ones constantly.

I must be odd. I have no idea what my ears looked like before or what they look like now. (Must have a look in the mirror when I get out of bed?).
I have always had hair long enough to cover them and I don't use a mirror mutch.
Never wanted to punch a hole in my body for decorative purposes so perhaps that explains my lack of observation.

I thought it was only men whose ears got bigger along with their noses.

So long as both keep the reading glasses in place, who cares ?

It's odd how perception differs isn't it.

I had always thought my ears were neat and small, and I have never had pierced ears, or worn earrings.
But in the last year I am sure my ears have grown. ? Not the lobes, but just the length from top to bottom.

Chewbacca, your post brought back memories of when my mum asked me to pome something through her ears, because the holes had closed up. Ugh! I couldn't do it.
Scarred for life now.

I also think it is only men whose ears keep growing.
