    I think the only white man that still wear them is Harrison Ford. The brothas can still pull it off.

    The only guys I've seen wearing them lately usually have at least 2.
    The only people we should try to get even with...

    In the US: Black guys and wiggers wear rocks on each ear.

    Some white guys and some mexicans plug and stretch their lobes to around 0G.

    Some asians tend to taper spike their ears with 16-10G spikes.

    That's pretty much all I see these days.

    I'm really not into guys who wear earrings, but that is just my personal taste. :) But I think earrings look WAY better than gold chains that some guys wear. Sorry, I hope I don't offend anyone. I guess I don't really like jewelry on men at all, unless it is made out of hemp or puka shells or it is a really cool armband (notice I don't say bracelet lol) or something similar. :)

    Trust them Aussie boys :rolleyes:
    I haven't worn one in 10 years, apart from maybe at a fancy dress party or something. I always think of David Beckham as a great wearer of earings these days, but on checking his web site I see that even Becks seems to have abandoned the look recently....

    I agree with you about men and jewelry. I am a guy, just for the record. I can't stand gold chains, but I think that is due to the fact that I grew up in Brooklyn with Guidos (by the way I am also Italian, and I have at least one picture of me at 16 with a Guido chain, oh boy). Besides the look, I just can't stand the feel of jewelry. I don't even wear a watch, and it took me years to get used to my wedding ring.

    It was going on before that. A lot of hardcore, metal and straight edge kids were/are still doing it. I remember in the late 90's my first couple years of high school kids were starting to do it already. Smaller(higher number) gauges are actually becoming an excepted norm for a lot of younger kids regardless of scene as well.
