yea. I would say in my classes only about 10% of the people, including myself, wear ear guards. Even when like 20-30 people show up to class, there will be 2 of us with ear guards. they are uncomfortable at first but you get used to them. And its much better than dealing with cauli ear. if i forget my ear guards for one class, i wont be able to sleep on my ears for like a week. my ears are sensitive i guess.

Girls do not like it at all. They have no idea what it is and think its a deformity.
