I know that if a man gets his right ear pierced it means hes gay. But if a woman only wants one ear pierced (the cartilage), does it matter which one?

There is no sexual meaning attached to which ear a man has pierced. It’s an urban myth that changes with the locale. In one city I lived, some said a pierced left ear meant the guy is gay. In another where I lived, it was the right. I have worn an earring for 30 years and have listened to all kinds of such nonsense, so I can safely say that a guy wearing an earring means nothing to most people under 75, except for people who want to think there is some significance to it to help them insult one another.

I’m gay and I didn’t know about the right ear thing. I always thought that a man with a piercing in his right ear meant that he was a man with a piercing in his right ear.
