Poll: "ear piercings are fully accepted for both genders"

[farouk]

My mom took me to get one ear pierced when I was about twelve. .. I didn't even know what was happening when she told me we were going to the mall. It was just me and Mom .. we shared a special time together. .. Later I ended up getting the other side done to even things out. .. I still wear earrings always and remember getting the piercing. .. no reason to deny it. In this time, ear piercings are fully accepted for both genders.

At the small local church where my wife and I attend, already a while ago it seemed that a majority of the young men/boys would typically wear earrings to church; and I can imagine, like the young man in the quote, above, that it would have been their moms that organized it/helped them have them put in.

So, as in the quote, do you agree that now ear piercings are fully accepted for both genders?

Another way of stating the question would be, rather than whether it conforms to one's personal preference or dislikes, is it just sensible to acknowledge that the assertion quoted is in fact true?

Society rules have become very accepting of whatever makes you feel good mentality.
Well have a good night...gotta go run an errand.

I don't think it matters. I had my ears pierced when I was younger. I don't know if the holes have grown shut or not.

It's undoubtedly what so many men and boys do now. The OP quote indicating that his mom organized it, does not surprise me.

Hi @Nancy FYI....thread & poll; don't know if this would be current in your family among the guys; I have a male cousin who has worn one for decades.

PS: You did both, right? it used to be one for guys; but lately both seem to be done.

I'm old school and don't want any piercings myself, but really I don't think it has anything to do with ones spiritual state.

Yepper, both.

I quite like males with ear rings...either one or both... but I'm not keen on tats.
Especially on females.

@Helen Yes. It's a really nice step — memorable for him — to help a young man along in taking — a son or grandson, maybe — to give him earrings. Particularly if he's never worn any before but has been thinking about doing it, if he wants to go for it and would appreciate a bit of encouragement to do it.

Hi @Angelina & @Naomi25 So did you see the new poll, above?

 

[farouk]

Yepper, both.

@Giuliano Yes, these days I don't think young men need to be shy to do both.
