Generally it's 10mm by 18g and the piercing is done with a 16g needle.
It is normal for a lobe piercing to be 16 or 18 gauge... but it is normally 18. A 16 gauge is normally used for tragus piercings :)
Mine was done with a 16g needle (:
You can put any earrings in your tragus piercing as long as they are the proper gauge.
The opposite of the piercing, tragus ~ anti tragus, eyebrow ~ anti eyebrow.
There is not straight or gay side for a tragus piercing, it's just a piercing and doesn't denote sexual orientation.

For a tragus piercing, it's important to use an earring that is specifically designed for that type of piercing. The size of the earring will depend on the individual's anatomy and the initial jewelry used for the piercing. Generally, a small stud or hoop with a diameter of around 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch (6mm to 9mm) is commonly used for a tragus piercing. However, it's best to consult with a professional piercer for personalized advice on sizing and jewelry selection based on your specific piercing.
The tragus piercing has a smaller cartillage when pierced while the rook piercing has a bigger cartilage. So rook has to be the much more painful type of ear piercing.
Only if the person doing the piercing is a complete idiot, but generally there is no danger to eyesight from a tragus piercing. Please be sure to see a professional body piercer for this piercing and not some joker with a piercing gun.
