Exactly this. Earrings and long nails are a homosexual trait. I was told men wear an earring on their left ear to signify they are gay.

I always thought it was the other way round - right is gay, left is straight.

A lot of Asian men purposely have a very long pinky nail. And it's for the purpose of picking their nose, so its always a pleasure to shake their hands.

I've never heard/seen that, where did you get that from?

Men should cut their fingernails short, OP.

Earrings doesnt concern me, just dont overdo it.

why's that? do you get manicures as well? or do you just do a minor trim? how can growing out something be non-masculine? is sabertoothe(or avalanche or w/e his name is) feminine? do men have to wax their legs now to not be gay? I thought that was the female thing to do...What about all those cavemen, are they really woman-like since they have long nails and hair all over the place?


Women grow their nails long. Men keep their nails short. End of.

I've never seen a guy who has long nails, unless they're just badly maintained for a while.

Earrings are acceptable on men from my perspective. General rule for earrings is that men wear one and women wear two.

Pirate earring would be cool imo, on the left ofcourse (right is gay). And long fingernails, just no. Not even it would look ridiculous, but it is also extremely comfortable to do anything with your hands with long nails, it just hurts.

Yeah, it's horrible. But at least you can spot the "bad apples" easier which saves you time.

You obviously didnt get the point.

I dont get manicures, that's for women.

I also dont shave my legs, that's for women.

Women like long fingernails, it's feminine, i cut mine short, that's masculine.

As for the cavemen thing, i'd think that their hygiene isnt the best, i take care of my hygiene.

I have no love for earrings. No thank you I don't want you to shove a needle through my ear and put some trinket on them, nor do I want to have long nails that break all the time and look overtly effeminate. Both of them are a hassle, and will most likely be the source of name-calling and jeering in highschool. I don't need another thing to worry about.

I don't know what to klick in the poll. I got long nails on the right hand because I play classical guitar. My left hand is, though polished and well maintained, in a normal state.

It's this type of misconception that just goes to prove how absurd the whole notion of "because they have XXX they must be YYY". Ultimately, the only way of telling if someone is gay is if they tell you.

Personally earings and fingernails don't really bother me. I have to say for practical reasons I don't really get along with long nails, but I don't see someone with them an think they're anything but someone with long nails.

Bit still, each to their own no?

I hate responses like this. Long nails are a tool of the trade for classical or flamenco guitarists- nothing to do with sexual preferences. Even if they don’t play and have long nails... I really don’t see how you can judge them so. :/


Their profession requires them to have longer finger nails in order to play well. I believe is talking about 'your average Joe' here. Long finger nails are unsightly on men, genetic deformity or not, it expresses femininity in Western culture and is frowned upon by men.

Example: Physical Exercise
Risk of injury to the palms of the hands are possible because of long fingernails, during various exercises.
I.E. Bench Press (any piece of equipment where you have to grip)

Cut your nails OP! <3

Long fingernails looks friggin' nasty on men. Girls have cute hands.

But besides that,
men traditionally do more work with their hands and it's not practical to keep long fingernails, in fact it's probably impossible, since the work will end up breaking the nails off. Not to mention how dirty men's nails get, as well. When say you're changing oil or playing sports.

I think we've all heard the phraise "i broke a nail!" when a girl does something.

Man with earring is forgivable but just one earring looks a little gay. (I mean literally, gay men often wear only one earring),

There is no point in your argument. Women are always talking about hygiene anyways. They're so finicky about clean things, so you shouldn't practice hygiene since it's what women do...You obviously didn't get my point. It's dumb placing arbitrary objectives for how to be masculine when they're illogical and inconsistent with each other. Do you ever question your beliefs or do you just go with what everyone else tells you? You have no reasons for your beliefs.

long nails? earrings? come on.... guys.

only excuse i see for men to have long nails is the example upstairs. guitar player, classical to be exact.

long nails is a sign of, fragileness... you may call me a traditional man, but i'm fine with that. earrings? are for beauty, which is for girls. men can be handsome of course, but handsome does not come from earrings... it's just a stupid hip hop trend.

With earrings put it on your left ear. 'Right ear, right queer'. Having long nails is retarded.
