Gauging is slang for stretching a piercing. For example, rather than saying "are you planning on stretching your lobes?" you could also say, "how far are you planning on gauging your ears?"
Gauging by most piercers' reactions, this term is annoying at best, and should be avoided at all costs (Note the proper use of the word 'gauging').
