Why some men wear ear rings?

**Sully60** · 18th February 2008, 15:03

I have often wondered how this trend got started, I now have the answer.

A man is at work one day when he notices that his co-worker is wearing an earring. This man knows his co-worker to be a normally conservative fellow, and is curious about his sudden change in "fashion sense."

The man walks up to him and says, "I didn't know you were into earrings."

"Don't make such a big deal, it's only an earring, "he replies sheepishly.

His friend falls silent for a few minutes, but then his curiosity prods him to say, "So, how long have you been wearing one?"

"Ever since my wife found it in my car."

Men who wear earrings are prepared for marriage - they have experienced pain and already know about buying jewellery!

I have a bike, a tattoo, and seventeen piercings and no-one's taken me home as their boyfriend yet.

It's that damn criminal record I'm missing.

can I see the tat and piercings (anywhere special) or just the normal ear, tounge, brow, belly...

Lol... Piercings are nothing special. Two lip piercings, two tongue piercings, three in my right ear (two of the three are stretchers) and ten in my left ear. Tattoo is three pawprints on my left shoulderblade, but I'm getting another designed as we speak!

Photos are a no-go, I haven't got any... I see myself every day in the mirror, after all...

I thought I'd read that somewhere before...

As per my sig, each to their own is my take on it. But I've never found a man more attractive because he wore earrings. I find it borderline disturbing if in both ears, and totally 80s to have it in the left ear.

My 0,002 c worth of course.
