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.

Men keep their nails short. End of. | ||

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

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. | ||

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 | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
