i remember reading some wearing earring for the acupuncture effects too, if they believe it

could be a functional earring and not fashion one

OK, but what does it mean if you are wearing two earrings, or just on one side (right, left).

I am asking this question because I've seen many men wear earnings, and some of whom wear it on one side.

On the other hand, many told me that wearing earrings do not have to do anything with sexuality.

I would like to hear your comments, please.
i heard that people that wear watches on the left hand are gay (is that a thing ?).
is this about berkely california ? never been to berekly but i've seen guys with earrings everywhere (i doubt they are all gay; 75% tops).

Maybe you are from small village in North Dakota where time has stood still for 100 years and just moved to Berkeley? I'm just confused but it could be b/c I am not aware of small town America??? Is this what small town America or middle America is like??? No, can't be. Everyone has a TV nowadays, yes. I'm overthinking this...
i just read thru the first page and i'm confused by the berkeley thing too. i would assume being so close to l.a./hollywood that they would see thousands (millions ?) of men wearing earrings ?

The comments are very rude, sarcastic, and disappointing.

I am stepping back....

It means you have too much time on your hands to be noticing this about another guy.

One of my nephew's face looks like a pin cushion.(But no tats, go figure) His dads words, not mine.

He owns a very successful internet company, lots of commercial property etc. And is 33 years old. Gorgeous wife. 10,000 dogs (just kidding - not sure how many. More than most people. )

He does business with the fortune 500 companies. If they don't care how he looks, why should anyone else? All they care about is he knows his stuff. HE probably doesn't meet with them anymore. Has someone else do it. He has 70+employees.

I must be getting old. Earings on men, "man buns", and tattoos just look foreign, and strange to me. I especially don't like tattoos all over the place on otherwise attractive females. Yuck!
