depends on the kind of earring. those little diamond thingys are probably the most gay shit a dude could wear, after dresses. but I hang out with a lot of rock and metal fellas, big ass earrings (with holes in their earloapes) are rather common.
long fingernails are nothing but disgusting

Prefer keeping my fingernails cut short, difficult to play cello w/ long nails and I feel cleaner overall w/ shorter nails. Long nails look kinda bad imo..
As for piercings, some guys can pull it off, some can't. I personally want one lol

(lol) also, men are not supposed to look good (accesory-wise) tell me what function do long nails serve? other than breaking? well fingerpicking a guitar, nosepicking and that just to mention some that ppl aready posted about but you can start from poking your aggressor eyes out and go wild from there! also to note: only people that work (out) break their nails!. someone else already mentioned in here that a long pinky nail is a social status statement (somewhere) and he seems to have a point. Blow your nose, use a pick, and i tell you, getting poked in the eye with or without nails hurt just as much. Done, done and done. Sure if it's some sorta social thing, but still. finding alternative solutions to those tasks is beside the point. its like saying: why should i drive a diesel fueled car when i can drive an electric car...?. it makes no sense. you enter to deep into personal choice/convenience/social stima realms and that makes any topic about 'preference' lose its free will so to speak. (if you read the replies in here the vast majority of people just perpetuate those social norms/restrains.)
what is most puzzling here is why do boys prefer bling-blings?. its the lesser evil here?, its the hip-hop culture?, its about getting in touch with their feminine side?(without going overboard), are they trying to make a statement? (and if thats the case whats that statement?), its fashion?(if so, why does it stop at earrings?. how abbout the man-purse, the man-bracelets, the eyebrows waxing, the make up), is to attract females?. why do people stop at earrings and still think of themselfs as manly while at the same time make fun of the men wearing a man-purse?. sense much?

I don't really care, but I'm more of the belief that you don't need abnormal visual markers to show people your personality; you just need to talk to them. Any piercing reduces your corporate business world job prospects by a 5th though.
I have my septum pierced (bull-ring on nose). I typically only wear it when I'm at home with my wife. Not looking for attention, I just like having it, and its interesting. It augments my personality. I have no other piercings, and if I were to get anything else they would be on my genitalia. Again, not for attention, because I don't walk around with my dick hanging out.
Also, what if you don't want to work in the corporate business world? Does that make you any less respectable? Does having a piercing make you any less respectable?

oh my gad, kill it with fire.
Just thought of another reason to keep nails short. Fingering le women.

i kinda agree with him on the hygiene part. i had my nails both long and short (alternating) and found that its way easier to keep the long nails clean then it is to keep the short ones clean.

I have always kept my nails short due to my line of work. But I used to have earrings and in my left ear I had a 14mm flesh tunnel which is healing up now after being out for about 4 years.
|
Nails short, no earrings, no piercings in general. Only thing I would do is tattoos.
|
Long fingernails are nasty. Nothing wrong with your earrings as long as their studs, not hoops.
|
I keep my nails crazy short but at one time had earrings in my youth (15-17) but my were gauged and not standard type. I'm all about short nails though, keep it clean!
|
Totally don't understand jewelry. Never will.
|
I just cut my nails when they get noticeably long.
For the earrings, I really don't care. Its just those damn tunnel plugs that I have a problem with.
|
|
i bite the shit outta my nails so much, they never have a chance to grow. Earrings are/were always for girls imo.
**edit** my buddy has "pluggs" in his ears that stretch them like an inch, its fucking ugly as hell but its his hot body he can do what he wants. It looks like a blow out asshole on his ear lobes imo. + Show Spoiler +

I cut my nails short, when I notice the length. I don not wear earrings.
In general I don't like long fingernails or earrings/piercings on anybody. I see no use for long fingernails except the one above and it just looks silly imho.
I just do not get why anybody would want to drill a hole into his or her body only to stick a piece of metal in it. It is like a small self mutilation to me. (Ears are kinda not so bad as other body parts as long as the earing are not completely silly) And I do not like how it looks most of the time.
But hey anybody can do what he or she wants with their body. I have a pretty big beard atm and I can see that this won't sit with everybody ^^
|
I just cut my nails whenever they start to get long (over 1mm of white?)
I'm personally not a fan of piercings but I don't really mind about other men having them.
|
imho, that is just disgusting.
|
My friend has an earring, so I kind of have to call it gay now.
