When my nails grow at all, it drives me crazy, I hate the feel and hate the look, so I have to keep them cut.

Hmm... we're in 2011. I can't believe people are still calling earrings "Gay". It's disrespectful to both real homosexuals and sexy earring wearers such as myself.

How is that disrespectful? They are considered gay because a lot of gay men wear them, i fail to see how that is offensive.

Long fingers is disgusting on both males and females, Earings aslong as they arent those ones that put massive holes in your ears.. they just look stupid. I dont have and never will have any earings, but others having them doesnt bother me the slightest aslong as it isnt those previosly mentioned.

Although, my dad likes to say, if you ever get into a fight with a guy that has any peircings, just grab them and pull like hell, his perspective on peircings has had a strong bearing on my choice not to get any xD

It's only disrespectful if you assume that it's meant in a disrespectful way.

If it's meant in a "earrings on men are generall worn by gay guys, hence it's somewhat gay" then it's just a statement of opinion.

Let's replace earrings with "two men having sex"

that's very definitely gay. If I said "two men having sex is gay" - how would you take it. I know how I mean it, but that's kinda not the point.

O/T:

My gf goes nuts at me for letting my nails grow too long, but it's more a laziness thing, than a choice thing. Though those are a little OTT. As for earrings - meh, don't much care either way.

Does a piercing on the left ear count? Not on the earlobe, obviously.

More like having earrings is = to being sexually attracted to men.

Honestly though I like having short nails but I am not very diligent at keeping them short
Earrings is nothing I would ever do but it doesn't really mean anything to have one.

The poll kind of confuses me. The question is what do you think of earrings on men, but the first answer is "I will not wear them". Personally I don't care if other men wear earrings, but I won't wear them, so I'm not sure how to answer.

I don't know how it is where everyone else lives, but there's hardly any relation between being gay and wearing earrings where I live.

In fact, only time it relates to gay people is when someone wears a single earring on the right ear, and in that case we contemplate he might be gay.

Earrings are fine on guys... like someone said earlier, it's 2011 where people get rings everywhere on their bodies and no one even cares where, it's all socially acceptable, at least here in the US it is.

When it comes to long nails on men, it's the complete opposite.

When I think of a guy with long nails I think of 2 different people.

1: A basement dweller nerd who isn't able to keep up on personal hygiene/doesn't have ANY social skills whatsoever to not be able to realize how disgusting it is to have long nails if you're a guy, OR

2: A drug addict who hides drugs under his nails so cops don't see it.

Either way you're a disgusting person and I don't want to be around you.

I'm so surprised so many people have the reactions they are having to long nails and earings.

I couldn't be paid to give a damn about how other people present themselves.

I have tattoos and long hair but no piercings and I keep my nails short by default.

I'll never understand how so many people can really spend so much effort caring about how others look. I do care about how the women I'm going to fuck look, beyond that only people who look or act like they are going to try and harm me in some way bother me. Enjoy your freedom to express yourselves!

In my opinion, long nails on a guy is weird. Now maybe some dude could pull it off really well, but that would be a very rare case.

Earrings are case by case. Some look good, some look stupid. All depends on the style the guy is going for. Earrings just for Earrings sake generally don't look good, but if you have a particular style, and that style involves earrings, go for it imo.

Personally, I have short nails, and never plan on getting earrings.
