Why half of the guys are wearing earrings?

What do you think about this new fashion in the USA? Why half of the guys are wearing earrings? Don’t get me wrong, it doesn’t always look bad. But in my opinion gemstone earrings are rather reserved for girls. They are really gentle, precious and delicate (I mean the gemstone earrings, not girls) and they don’t really go along with the macho image of most of these men in the streets. Maybe it’s only my opinion, but why do they do it? I bet it hurts when somebody’s putting a needle in your ear. Do they want to impress girls? Or maybe that’s some sort of creating the identity with the group? Now question just to the ladies, do you really like these gemstone earrings in your boyfriends’ ears? Aren’t you afraid that after some time they are going to steel something from your jewelry boxes? Next time when you convince your man to buy a new set of earrings think about the consequences. Who knows what’s going to happen in half a year? Maybe he’s going to ask you if he can borrow your new pendant as it is going to really go along with his new boots.
