Is it a bad habit to wear your earrings to bed?
If they are only smallish studs, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
However if you sleep on your side, you could feel the back of the posts poking into your neck, which would make sleep uncomfortable if not difficult.
Any kind of earring that is more than just a small stud is a bad idea to wear to bed, because any number of bad things could happen while you’re asleep.
There are only two ways to completely avoid any problems with this. One is to never wear earrings to bed, and the second is to only sleep on your back and never roll over onto your side.
Why do guys generally not wear earrings?
I think there are two reasons why you don’t see a lot of guys with earrings.
- a lot of men think earrings are feminine and would never wear earrings because they don’t want to appear effete.
- A lot of men DON’T think earrings are feminine and want to wear them , but don’t because that are afraid of what people will think of them ( that they are feminine or gay looking)
I used to fall into the second category. For years I resisted wearing earrings because I was afraid of what people would think of me.
But then I got to a certain age and don’t give a crap what people think so I wear studs in both ears and love it. It’s so liberating to do something you know people will judge you on. But really not caring what they think. I don’t think I look feminine with my earrings at all. Some people probably do but that’s their opinion.
Should earrings be tight?
I have quite a few piercings in my ears, four on one side and two on the other. I pretty much only wear mini hoops and bigger hoops (which obviously aren’t ever tight) except in the third hole on my left ear lobe, where I wear a diamond stud. With my stud I guess I wear it tight enough so I know it’s on properly but not so tight that I can feel it during the day.
