As a guy with pierced ears l agree. Get both ears pierced. Earrings come in pairs after all. No point always having a spare earring every time you buy a set. Lol.
I don't mind stud earrings on guys. It depends on the guy and what his features are, but I can even really like it. However, I don't think I'd really like hoops on a guy, and I definitely don't care for anything that stretches the hole out (gauges). I'm not sure what plugs are.
Plugs are the correct name for gauges. Piercers will slap you if you call them gauges. Gauge's plural is technically referring to unites of measurement, not the ear pieces. They are called plugs because simply they look like plugs that plug the hole in your ear.
Prob a guy thing. Like when you're talking about the witch of a wire, or nail, or something like that, your talking about its gauge. Hence the reason the plugs that people use fro stretching their ears are given a measurement (gauge) based on how big around it is. Basically diameter.
Yeah, I know what gauges are in terms of measurement. I just didn't realize that plugs weren't called gauges, because I've only ever heard them be referred to as gauges, never plugs.
Most people on the street refer to them as gauges but its not the proper term. I used to do that as well until I used the term in front of my piercer and he almost punched me. (pet peeve of theirs), and all the sites that sell piercings refer to them as plugs as well. Just got used to the term. But yeah, your average person, especially those who don't have them, refer to them as gauges.
earrings are okay for me if they fulfill the following conditions:
1. They can pull it off, be it studs/hoops/twisty things that make the hole bigger (O_o.. although I personally would be scared of that one)
2. As long as its not overdone/too much metal on the ears is also scary
I personally don't care if my guy had earrings or not, but if he did, those would be my rules. Ideally just a stud on one or both earlobes. Simple, but also has a statement.
They're kind of like tattoos -- if you're thinking of getting one, just be aware that society will see you differently if you get the piercing (and depending on how many too!) ;P I hope I helped!
I say if you like it, then it shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks.
I like piercings in general, so ear piercings on guys are no big thing. I'm more partial to gauged ears than like, diamond studs, but that's just my style. I have my ears gauged to a 00 and tend to find similar things attractive on other people, haha.
Bahaha. I don't know anyone who really pulls off the huge diamond studs because no one I know wears them, but I'm sure there's someone out there somewhere. =P I can't help but laugh though because they remind me of my brother like five years ago when he thought he was so gangster, hahaha.
The specific style matters and the specific man too. I personally wouldn’t look good with ANY style of earrings on and I’m honest enough to know that. There was a time where I wanted to get earrings but I eventually came to my senses with the help of my dad. My dad said something to the similarity of “Earrings? Men don’t wear earrings, they’d look ugly on you.” My personal opinion, it depends on the man and his personal style.
I love earrings on a guy :) My best friend got his ears pierced a few weeks ago, and I found it sexy ^^
It should be carefully chosen though, because earrings can give a strong negative vibe if inappropriate. Given your description, I'd say dark studs are a nice choice :)
Anyway, if you get tired of it you just have to take it off and the skin will fill the piercing so it's not like it'll be stuck for the rest of your life :)
I think it depends on both the girl AND the guy! Everybody has different tastes! But don't change something you like just because some girls don't like it. They should like you for you! Tattoos, earrings, piercings, the way you dress, if some girl doesn't like that and can't see through it, they obviously aren't good enough for you!
Hmm.. I personally do NOT like guys with earrings. Having diamond earrings is a definite NO. PERIOD. That's tacky and cheesy. I don't know of any women who'd enjoy that. You don't wanna come off feminine either. Pierced ears are probably not the greatest of ideas.
I don't really like it at all, but I know that some girls do. If you do get it done, don't get a gauge, don't get anything huge, and don't get a dangly earring. Something that is small and not flashy at all if you are gonna do it. But that's me. Some girls would probably disagree. And, I think that one looks better than both ears.
it depends on the guy... if he can pull it off then its hot. but if a guy is walking around with two (or one) huge diamond in his ear(s) it can sometimes just look obnoxious and silly. I'm actually not a big fan of it, but that's not typically something I judge on guys ya know?
I typically like when guys wear a diamond stud in each ear. It portrays wealth and confidence. The guys I'm seeing now only has one ear pierced- he wears a small black stud. I like earrings on a guy--if they can pull it off. If a guy looks stupid in earrings its a major turnoff. I don't like hoops or anything like that, just studs. Oh and only on the lobes--cartilage piercings on men are a scream for attention.
I really prefer NO earrings for guys. To me, they just look too feminine on a guy. Even if he’s especially tough-looking, at best it will look trailer-park-ish or like he’s just plain trying too hard.
If you MUST get a piercing, make it just ONE tiny stud on your earlobe. Whatever you do, DO NOT wear cans, hoops, pencils, safety pins, or any of the other weird objects I’ve seen. That’s just weird and gross (to me).
Lol. When my friend pierced my ear he did it with a safety pin and I had that in for a few days until I got actual earrings. It did look weird and gross.
Why are you thinking of piercing your body if it will get you laid more, or do yo want a piercing and your not sure because the girls might think your gay and then you won't get laid as much? Boy that's a hard desition. I would probably go with if you like it and want one go for it. The girl your calls to be with will love you weather you look gay or not.

This isn't really my thing, but that guy is fucccckkingg hot. And his earrings aren't too blingy and they aren't large guages. It's doable, depending on what he's like. If he fits a stereotype that often goes with having pierced ears as a guy, then probably not.

I dislike them for the most part. Guys shouldn't wear earrings, they look 10x's better without earrings. Heck, even I don't wear them much unless I am dressing up to go out. If they're cute enough though then they MIGHT go unnoticed by me. Other than that, it's a turn-off. Sorry. :/

I don't really like it, I prefer guys to be a little more plain in that area. Just a clean face and a clean look (I'm not saying guys with earrings look dirty lol).
I have seen earrings look good on a guy, they were big diamond studs on both ears and he had dark skin. It depends on the earring and his physical features.
I like them on the guys who have the features and facial structure to pull it off well. As long as you don't have GIGANTIC gauges, I think they look good. Keep in mind, it hurts to get your ear stretched for gauges.
Silver looks okay, gold can only look good on black guys (sorry if thats racist, im only talking about matching colours to skintone). To me, they look ugly when worn with very short hair. Silver hoops in the top part of the ear look best on guys.
Diamonds and 'bling' earrings on guys looks really sleazy and not nice at all. Piercing style earrings and stretchers can look cool if you have the matching style (other piercings, tattoos, clothing etc.)
With or without, it doesn't really matter to me. I like piercings in general though so I definitely wouldn't be opposed. I like the look of gauged ears more than diamond studs or something, but that's just my style.
