Lol no, it’s really the only part of me I don’t like physically. People who know me well tease me about my ears and call me an elf -_- they’re kind of pointy at top and I’m self consciousness about it.

I wish I'd told a neighbour of mine how much some men (including me) are into such ears, before she had some plastic surgery done. Guess I'll just tell you instead, and feel perfectly atoned.
Yes. I have very small ears, and when I was in my pre-teens or early teens, I came across a superstition that said that men with small ears would die on their 30s. For some strange reason not entirely disassociated from the superstition, I thought I’d never make it past age 33, the approximate age of Jesus Christ when He made his first departure from earthly bonds. As I got older, I gradually forgot about my fear of untimely demise, so much so that by my early 20s it was the furthest thing on my mind. Fast forward to about age 34 or 35, I realized that since I was still around, the superstition was either whack, or the date was a little off. Once again, it took a few months or years for me to forget it again. A decade later, nothing.
Switching focus a little, I have been an avid runner since about age 35ish. I use headphones to listen to music while pounding the pavement, but along with my small earlobes, it turns out that the inner orifice of my ear is also very small. As such, I can’t use just any headphones. Earbuds are way too large for me, even though they come in various sizes and have rubberized thingamajigs for snugness. They barely fit into my ears, and even if or when I get them in there, the motions of running combined with sweat cause them to pop out with the frequency of about every 30 seconds. Definitely NOT conducive to long-distance running that can often last up to two hours at a time (half marathons). I can only use headphones that wrap around the ear completely and the earpiece must be small enough to go into my ears without popping out from vibrations and/or bodily moisture.
Do I like my ears? Yes, even being small. I’m just grateful that I wasn’t endowed with anything like those radar dishes that Will Smith has to carry around . . .
Just staring at like that will just frighten it a bit more and most likely give it even more of a complex....Like most tiny snakes or worms that wiggle about to get themselves noticed.....not all are fit to be eaten by birds ... Not ever if they feel pecker'ish or if they are feeling Eel ..:(
Any way, please don't keep looking down on yourself like this...grow up and be a big boy and take this matter in hand and make something big and better of it.....:)
Yes. I have very nice ears. Most people don't notice ears but I do. Mine have not grown as I've aged; I'm thankful for that. My hair is always pulled up in a clip which I couldn't do if I had ugly ears. I notice that as they age many people's ears grow, especially men.
No, I've seen some as big as a half saucer. I always have had a smallish head...hats always too big. I confirmed I had the wrong size head in my college anthropology class. I have plenty of IQ...just imagine if I had more space.
When I was growing up (it could have just been our local culturalisms), a small head was referred to as a peabody head or a beanbody head. It has to do with the size of a pea or the size of a bean compared to other people's "normally" sized heads. Grrrrr.
(The opposite extreme was fathead or boulderhead.)
They seem to do me very well, and I hear extremely well. So, yes I do in fact like my ears.
