Celine brought the single dangly to the spring runway. Dior showed a much sparklier version with clean white jackets and shorts. And Jacquemus, already a fan of asymmetrical jewelry, took the earring to even longer lengths in a unisex show in a lavendar field.
Lopsidedness, it seems, is having a moment. And why not? Everything feels unbalanced these days; might as well lean in. Maybe the imbalance will help me find some balance myself. Subscribe Now!

As for me, I am just going to do what is good for me and what my conscience deems good. Its my life after all. My kids are even cool with it. Girls love them. You only live once why live it pleasing someone else. I am straight and married and even my son who is now had his pierced when he was 5. Who cares about what other people think? You only live once in the physical realm, so be who you are.
If a woman hates that you wear an earring of two, would you really want to be with such a judgemental woman anyway? Live life on your terms and not the terms of others. I think it makes masculine men looks sexcy n confident n very secure n be whom they are.. Men started to wear heels and earrings in the beginning.
Comes back around full circle.. I wear earrings, AND leather jeans, and tight shiny leggings. And my wife accepts me for both! Ahaha wow. And saying it makes a man look weak? Some of the most accomplished and brutal warriors and leaders of history have worn earrings. My son wears earrings but I have to love him still that is my son and the most important thing is the character of a person, but in relationships unless you are just a friend only then earrings are not acceptable no matter how cute or successful.
A lot of women see it as a weakness whereas I just want to express myself in a new way. I think I could pull it off as a masculine feature but im not sure.
This post definitely inspired me to just go for it! I just turned 47 and I am a heterosexual male who has been married for 8 years. Two weeks ago I finally decided it was time. I have nothing against homosexuality, as my brother is gay — I actually feel more masculine to be honest! I love piercings on woman the more the better, I also have both ears pierced and wear them on holiday my girlfriend loves them, wish it was more acceptable, like woman with tattoos.
I just got mine and I am happy for it. I was very eager to have my ears pierced but my relatives will get annoyed and somehow get angry at me. I mostly wear studs but occasionally I wear hoops or dangle earrings….. I prefer wearing big hoop earrings, like some women do. My favorite hoops are 3 inch wide and I really love wearing them.
This was an informative post. I had a discussion with a friend and we disagreed wildly regarding why men pierce their ears. He said to express their feminine side. I said it was to flaunt their success and confidence macho , with an avant garde, in-your-face style. This post revealed the diversity of reasons from men of various ages, lifestyles, etc. Thank you.
I got my left ear pierced when I was about 30 years old. I did it when I was at a biker swap. I always wanted to do it, but I was afraid of the needle. But I also have a professional career. I was not sure how I would be viewed professionally. Sometimes I take it out for extremely professional moments, but for the most part I keep it in. The women in my life like it, and the men in my life think it is cool.
My kids have never seen me any other way. Just a personal thing. Try it. The ear will heal up fine. I wish I had not gotten mine pierced when I was in my teens. My tastes have changed over the years, and I hate even the small mark that shows I had earrings once. I want my perfect ears back. I prefer big hoops, like women wear. Who's to say wearing one or two earrings means you are gay?
No part of me is homosexual and the people criticizing me know this too do why judge me? Men have worn earrings centuries before you critics who think you know all about life. Being yourself means doing what you like because you like it, not or other people. I don't wear them to try and get people to stare at me or give me comments on them.
I like how I look with them on when I look at myself in the mirror and I feel confident enough to brush of the negative comments I may get. Some of you are so narrow minded you don't even look at yourself or understand how something like this could be considered biased. Do what u want to yourself and don't judge others for being themselves. I have 2 in my left ear and 1 in my right, am about to go 3 in the left and 2 in the right to try and be a rent setter. After getting, y second hole in my left ear I noticed more and more people doin it, I'm just trying to be leader not a follower, just try a do my own thing.
I have stretched ears for 4 reasons. I think they look good, I found many girls do too, to improve my spirituality buddhist , and finally to rebel. Rebellion is a big thing to me and so is my religion, I believe it was worth the pain of piercing and stretching. I'm an 18 year old male and I got my left ear pierced about a year ago for the ren fest. I loved it.
I got compliments on it. But I myself wanted to stand out more. And right around the time I started dating my current girlfriend I began to gauge my ear. I am now at a half inch. I still get compliments. She thinks its sexy. There is nothing wrong with peircings or gauges.
They have both been around for thousands of years. I as a person changed a lot since I've gotten it. I've made changes for the better. And it reminds me of these changes but also reminds me of my girlfriend and the love I have for her. It acst as a symbol of my happiness,perseverance,strength and love.
Before you go and judge anyone about something like this look at it this way. Say your favorite thing to wear was a purple shirt and a black baseball cap. Then all the sudden there are Does that make you a bad person?. Its all about the stereotypes. And no Human is perfect. I don't see anything wrong with earrings on Men.
When I can take the starter studs out, I am going to get some dangling Harley earrings. I had my left ear pierced years ago.
At the time I did get a lot of criticism, but i'm still glad i did it. I think it looks good. I don't wear it all the time now just when it takes my fancy.
I got my left ear done and im a male. I did not do it to fit in to stick out or religion. Im left handed and use the left side of my brain more then my right. No one goes by that homosexual rule anymore I don't think. I didn't even check when i got my done because i don't care. I'm an indian and for our community it is considered manly to pierce one's ear i'm a rajpoot and for us it is considered to be incomplete to not have both our ears pierced it goes the same way for brahmins..
I think everyone that has posted negative comments towards guys with pierced ears should take a cold hard look at themselves in the mirrior! And i'm sure you will find nothing but hate in yourself, the only reason you are so negative towards guys with pierced ears is because they themselves feel confident enough to be okay with themselves and express themselves that they are okay with who they are, and they can do this any way they feel, being a bold fashion statement, or even getting pierced ears.
You people are just disgusted because you aren't okay with who you are, you are upset by your bottled up feelings, and only with to reflect it upon people who are okay with themselves enough to do something that isn't like the "old ways" where guys were looked at bad for having a pierced ear!
You shouldn't me happy with yourself for bringing people down by telling them they shouldn't pierce there ears! Get over yourself it's a new generation! And we are in fact taking control, weather the old farts like it or not! I'm also proud to say i'm an 18 year old male who just got his ears pierced! And enjoy it! I feel comftorble, confident, and proud to be the person i am. And if you aren't don't comment on this topic we don't want your negative talk on here!
I am a 55yo married guy who has a pierced ear. Wear a small stud and sometimes a small silver hoop or a bit larger gold hoop In fact I have not actually put any of them in for about nine months or so. It is not that I no longer care for them, it just is not part of my morning routine lately. BTW: My wife bought all my earrings for me and loves the look, so maybe I better pull them out of the drawer and plug one of them into the ear.
My wife is the one who pierced my ear for me using an ice cube and a sterile needle. Did not hurt a bit. Good thing she wasn't mad at me at the time or she might have used a rusty nail.
Nice hub Anamika.. I somehow cannot imagine to get myself pierced. Seems you have done good research on men!! Can have studs in both lobes, with one or two BCRs above either lobe.
Very comfortable - and totally confident wearing them in any combination. So much so, now feel most uncomfortable without them. Once pierced, there's no going back - a beautiful addiction and an essential statement. Couldn't live without them - now. If in any doubt, get pierced, and there'll be no regrets. I'm from Greece and i'm thinking of piercing my left ear only. I am not so sure yet because i don't know if i can "support" it with my general style which is simple and casual.
I believe that it depends on the person only if he would be nice with an earing. Others look well I think that you left out one reason why us guys get our ears pierced and that reason is just because we wanted to. I have both my ears pierced and the only reason why I did it was just because I wanted to. The fact that I wanted to have both my ears pierced did not have any sort of underlying, profound meaning behind it nor was it a statement of my sexual preference or claiming of any sort of group.
I tend to think of myself as a pretty simple sort of creature. I am straight forward, honest, and usually if it makes me happy and I can afford it, I will usually do it. I think your list of reasons why guys decide to get their ear s pierced is pretty good and does cover a lot of the reasons why we do it.
Has anyone had any problem during interviews because of having your ears pierced? How do you know that Jesus was totally secure? Well, we are made in his likeness, but as human beings we are unfortunately plagued with insecurity, which makes us normal. Pierced ears started somewhere centuries ago, probably with ancient kings or warriors. Even as described by a few posters that sailors believed wearing an earring would prevent them from drowning. What kind of person says, 'when i see a person pierced I think they have other problems?
I'm a 53 year old health care professional. Had one ear pierced in Took it out many times due to feeling the negative reactions similar to some of the negative posters. After suffering an almost "Sudden Death" due to heart attack, I decided life was too short to worry about negative people. I recently re-pierced both ears. I did not do it because I am insecure and need attention, I did it for the opposite reason.
I am secure in myself and it is my choice Some complaints sound like the same turn-of-the-century arguments against women wearing pants. I wore it against my wishes because astrology suggested me to do so. The initial plan was to pierce in my nose, but since it would look way non-social, the alternative was to get pierced in the ear. Well some ppl will obviously get jealous.
Fine I don't look at ma face, well with out makeup most of actress look bad, Well some ppl may also say no they look good and some will say bad. Well ma opinion is simple, do you live for other ppl, as long as it doesn't hurt others do it. I was thinking of getting mine pierced. I'm 41 wm. Married with kids but I think it just looks cool.
I'm a 25yo straight male and I've worn earrings, specifically diamond studs, almost every day since I was I'm not trying to be a rebel or anything -- I just they just look good on me, simple as that. I'm a 33 year old man and I have both of my ears pierced twice.
I have very long hair and frequently wear large hoop and dangling earrings. There's nothing wrong with this at all. I've worn a hoop earring in each ear soon after I got married 15 years ago. I think they look good and my wife thinks they look sexy.
There is no harm in wearing them and anyone who is derogatory about men who do should really look into their own soul. It is such narrow mindedness that is the reason people still can't get along with one another. Everyone who has posted negatively towards men who choose to wear ear rings need to do some serious soul searching. With a little humility, maturity and intelligence hopefully you will cultivate an opinion of understanding.
Stray away from confirmation bias and know that if you never take the time to challenge your own preconceptions you may live the rest of your life in ignorance. For a man to wear an earring or earnings is definitely a sign to other men of a man who wishes to express himself as an individual or just wants some attention. However that indication of individualism is a negative sign, seemingly an expression of some kind of perversion.
The person seems different, indeed, either he as a homosexual, pot smoker, criminal pimp, gypsy, child molester, pickpocket -- hide your wallet, they are not to be trusted. This is what other men think. They appear dirty and slimy to most men and one who you could catch a disease from, or one who could violate your family and friends.
